Were you or your relatives in the orphanage or one of our other services? 

We have been able to help lots of people trace their family trees, by providing details from our archives, about relatives who spent time in our services. We are also able to help individuals to trace their own records, if they have spent time in our care.

please consider supporting our work

At Aberlour, we rely on your generous donations to fund our work with Scotland’s most vulnerable children and families. We are pleased to offer our services, which are currently provided on a volunteer basis, to help search for records of your time in Aberlour’s care, or those of your relatives.

To help cover our costs, we ask you to consider making a suggested donation of £20, but all contributions are gratefully received. We hope you understand and consider helping us continue to provide the search service, as well as our services for children and families.
