Scots-Irish Links, 1575-1725. Part Nine

Description

This is the ninth part in a series compiled by Mr. Dobson to identify the Lowland Scots who migrated to Ulster between 1575 and 1725–many of whose progeny may have immigrated to America. For this volume Mr. Dobson relied on primary sources and publications found in Scotland, Ireland, and England. Some of his principal sources include the Calendar of Patent and Close Rolls of Chancery in Ireland, the Alumni Dublinensis, and Archaeological and Historical Collections, Ayrshire and Galloway. As with previous volumes, each listing provides the inhabitant’s name, occupation, place of residence, a date, and the source. In some instances, Mr. Dobson gives quite a bit more.
