Directory of Scottish Settlers In North  America Volume 2
1625-1825
David Dobson
Softbound  volume totaling
216
pages. Book is in new  condition. Per the publisher;
This volume, unlike the first, is based largely on previously published material  such as government serial publications, contemporary newspapers, periodical  articles, and family histories. In addition, there is data from some previously  unpublished ships’ passenger lists and documents in the Scottish Record Office  in Edinburgh.
At least half of the immigrants identified in this volume sailed to Canada or  the West Indies initially, the rest arriving at ports in the coastal states of  America. Among them were doctors, ministers, educators, indentured servants,  transportees, merchants, and ordinary laborers. About 4,000 immigrants are  listed. While the data provided varies according to the records used, there is a  general amalgam of information giving age, date and place of birth, occupation,  place of residence, names of spouse and children, date and place of arrival in  North America, and the death date.
