An additional speaker—Robin Baird Lewis! 

Robin Baird Lewis has joined our lineup of outstanding speakers. In her master’s thesis, Robin used letters between family members to discover the decision-making process that prompted her ancestor to leave Scotland for Canada in the mid-1880s.  That the letters were treasured and kept safe on both sides of the Atlantic offers us rare first-hand evidence of “what they were thinking” before emigrating. See her profile on the Speakers’ page.

The conference social time has been moved to after Robin's presentation and the conference wrap-up time extended to 4 p.m.

Conference Links

The Zoom links for the conference will be posted on the  Registrants’ Portal on the conference website just before the conference starts. There will be two – one for the formal presentations and another for the interactive breakout sessions (Social time and Conference Connect with Scottish Regions).  

To access the Registrants’ Portal, you just need the email address you used to register for the conference and the password you created at registration. If you have any questions, please contact the webmanager.
