Qualifications for Membership

The Saint Andrew’s Society of the Middle South is a private organization that promotes Scottish culture primarily through our support of the Ian Sturrock Memorial Pipe Band.  Members must provide proof of a direct ancestral relationship to a Scottish family. All genealogical submissions are reviewed by the Society’s genealogist.

Potential members may be considered only after being nominated by a current member in good standing. If you have been so nominated, please fill in the “Proposed Member Form” accessible below. If you are the son, grandson, blood brother, or blood nephew of a current or former member, fill in the “Short Form”. IMPORTANT Both forms are fillable on the computer and may be printed out after completion.
