Scots Irish Links 1575 1725

Part seven of Scots-Irish Link, 1575-1725 attempts to identify some of the Scottish settlers in Ulster during this period (116 p.).

This is the eleventh part of a series that helps the researcher to link an individual first to Ulster and then back to Scotland. Drawing on primary source material in the British Museum in London, the Public Record Office and Trinity College in Dublin, the Public Record Office of Northern Ireland in Belfast, as well as Scottish sources, this series identifies Lowland Scots who migrated to Ulster as university students, apprentices, ministers, merchants, weavers, teachers, or persons in flight. Typically, each listing gives the Scots-Irish person's name, occupation, place of residence, a date, and the source; in a number of cases, Mr. Dobson also provides information on spouse, children, local origins, and landholdings.

This series identifies the Lowland Scots who migrated to Ulster between 1575 and 1725. Part Ten, indexed and fully sourced, identifies an additional 3,500 persons, including persons who may have emigrated to North America during these years.
