With the majority of Birnie descendents now residing outside Scotland, and the very high cost of vacationing in Scotland, we realized that a few location photos may provide a snippet of your ancestral homeland. Our Parish Kirks, with their records of our ancestors, are an integral key in understanding the social and religious influence on who we are today.
