Thanks to all who have replied!

Any info on bringing this tree forward - ie descendants to, say, 1930's?
Hopefully not too impossible.

Put John's mum Margaret Leys in the search box there are quite a few Margaret Leys all born in Scoltand around the right time even Crathie so the tree owner may be able to help you more. The only other way would be to work your way from his parents marriage on Scotlands People tracing birth and marriages to the date that you want. Images on Scotlands People for births are I think there up to 1908, marriages 1933 and deaths up to 1958 after these dates you would need to order certificates.

Edit

Tree owner Jean DiMaio looks like she may be the best person to contact.

Marcus as Gerri said earlier, you will have to provide some information.

If you are at 1930ish, you will need to find birth & marriage certs of the family line you think may be connected.

Once you hit 1901 it should be fairly easy to trace back through the censuses.
