This ancient Aberdeenshire family is the subject of this extended historical and genealogical work. Originally published 1887 and edited by William F. Skene, the extensive manuscripts of the family provided the author with more, rather than less, material, beginning  roughly in the early 14th century and continuing to the time of publication.

It provides information on the families of Skene of Skene, Skene of Halyards in Fife, Skene of Pitlour, Skene of Prerau in Austria, and Skene of Dumbreck, of Newtyle, of Dyce, of Westercourse, of Ramore, of Curriehill, of Halyards in Midlothian, of Belhelvie, and of Rubislaw. These branches are treated in both historical and genealogical terms, with appendices of illustrative documents relating to them.

This CD consists of scans of the original publication, which can be browsed, enlarged and printed if required. Please note: it is not searchable.
