Monarch of the Glen star Hamish Clark yesterday launched a new website to help Scots across the globe trace their family trees.

He joined tourism minister Mike Watson on board the Tall Ship Glenlee, in Glasgow, to spread the word about VisitScotland’s new web initiative.

Hamish said: “This will inspire a lot of Scots to find out more about their family history.”

The site was also launched in New York last night by Ayrshire-born model Kirsty Hume and US star Kyle MacLachlan, whose family hailed from the Highlands.
