I am looking for someone well versed in genealogy to help me find relatives in Scotland.  The last ancestor coming from Scotland was Seton Drummond just after the Jacobite Rebellion.  I know I must have cousins that still live there, but unsure how to find them.   Any ideas would be helpful.

The Jacobite Rebellion was a long time ago. surprise Before you can hope to find relatives in modern Scotland, you will need to dig into the genealogy of your ancestors and the families  they left in Scotland.

Join the Scotland Project to learn what Sources are good to search to find your relatives.  As Ellen said, you have to add profiles for your ancestors, if they don't already exist.  Chances are you will get to some of them and find some are already added that connect to the Jacobite Rebellion.
