Description

Scots in  the Mid-Atlantic Colonies, 1783-1883
David Dobson
Hardbound volume totaling
142
pages. Book is in excellent condition. Just what you need for genealogy research. Per the publisher;
Naming an additional 3,000 Scots immigrants to the mid-Atlantic  region, this book covers the hundred-years immediately following the  Revolutionary War and provides a series of sketches conveying such information  as the immigrant's place and date of birth and death, occupation, date of  arrival and place of settlement in the U.S., and names of spouse and children.
Who were these Scottish immigrants to the mid-Atlantic states?  Little exists to record their departure from Scotland, but probably the most  informative source of vital data on Scots who settled abroad are the birth,  marriage, and death columns of local newspapers. This compilation depends  heavily on such sources, together with certain documentary sources in the  National Archives of Scotland, as well as a few other sources both printed and  manuscript.
This is another volume in Dobson's indispensable regional  immigration series, which includes
