Introduction
The Declaration of Arbroath Family History Project, run by the Genealogical Studies postgraduate programme within the Centre for Lifelong Learning at the University of Strathclyde, and funded by the Foundation for Medieval Genealogy, is now compiling its findings, based on research by students and staff. Here we present the stories of some of the individuals involved, in the 14th century, links that have been found with descendants of their families today and some thoughts on the future use of research methods utilised in the genetic genealogy research which has been carried out.
