Project goals and tasks

The goal of this project is to identify former pupils of the Edinburgh Academy. The project started by tracking family relationships between Academicals using a proprietary genealogical site but WikiTree is now clearly the way to go. In that way, the project will hopefully outlast this reseacher!

Here are some of the tasks that I think need to be done. I'll be working on them, and would certainly appreciate any help you could give.

• Identify former Edinburgh Academicals and tag them
• Add Edinburgh Academicals identified from documents such as the EA Register (1914)
• Encourage interest from other members of the Academical community
