It organises gatherings, produces a regular newsletter, meetings and talks and offers genealogical advice to those wishing to learn more about there ancestors.

The Society would like to encourage as many N/N's to get there DNA tested and to seriously consider using Wikitree as an additional resource. It has robust collaboration and sharing capabilities as well as a commitment to accurate documentation of sources. It is a platform for the long-term survival of all the information and source data collected. It is also a platform where DNA results from any source can be added and matched with similar DNAs to discover more family connections. There is guidance and support available under the Genealogy/DNA tab above.
One of the benefits of membership of the Society is access to talks on a variety of subjects related to Nesbitt/Nisbet's or genealogy. During the last two years we have delivered the following talks. Links to the talks are available to members in the members area.
