The project of creating the National Burial Index began in 1994 and was first published in 2001, containing 5.4 million records. A second edition followed in 2004 containing over 13 million names.
Whilst not all of the 13 million records from the second edition are available here, millions of them are, alongside many thousands which do not appear on the CD.
Family history societies and individual transcribers chose the parishes and time intervals they transcribed. While most began with the period 1813 to 1850, there are a significant amount of data available either side of these dates.
A partnership between General Register Office for Scotland, the National Archives of Scotland and the Court of the Lord Lyon enabled by Scotland Online.see "Scotland Online" - Google Search
