Below are two articles relating to a proposed project for the 2014 year of Homecoming in west Lochaber, Scotland. This is a new initiative being lead by Arisaig Highland Games, aimed at the heritage / history / genealogy / diaspora communities, so it's something a bit new for us!

Welcome
Welcome to An Diasporran! This is hopefully the start of something new and interesting for all of us. To find out more about it, please read on!
This will be a regular newsletter for a new project concerning family history and genealogy, primarily, in the west Lochaber area. We understand, that genealogy involves history in general, so we won't be neglecting that either.
The project has three main aims:
- To provide a single information source about west Lochaber families
- To bring people back to west Lochaber for research and visiting ancestral places
- To foster links, understanding and knowledge about the area: who left, why, where they went, what remains.
We hope you enjoy
