For example, the Scottish population was increased significantly around 1650 when Oliver Cromwell exiled 900 Scots prisoners of war to Virginia and Maryland in the aftermath of the Wars of the Three Kingdoms 1638-1651. (Many of these transportees were Covenanters-militant Presbyterians who were opposed to the religious policies of the Stuart kings.) During the eighteenth century, there was a constant stream of Scots indentured servants sailing from English ports bound for Virginia and Maryland.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eOvershadowing all other factors stimulating Scottish immigration to the Chesapeake, however, was the rapid growth and expansion of the tobacco trade, which by 1740 was dominated by the port of Glasgow. This resulted in a proliferation of Scots merchants, factors, and their servants throughout the region. From towns like Norfolk and Portsmouth the Scots factors controlled operations throughout the Chesapeake. The success of the American Revolution ended this arrangement, and although Scots immigrants still arrived, the emphasis on settlement was elsewhere in the Americas.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eThis book supersedes David Dobson's earlier work \u003cem\u003eScots on the Chesapeake, 1607-1830\u003c\/em\u003e [Baltimore, 1992] and is restricted to the colonial period. Since 1992, many more references and primary sources have been located, which has enabled this substantially expanded edition (one-third larger than the original) to be compiled. The references are overwhelmingly taken from primary sources such as probate or testamentary records, court records, indenture agreements, jail registers, registers of deeds, contemporary newspapers, and journals, Loyalist claims, militia papers, monumental inscriptions, and government records located predominantly in Virginia, Maryland, Scotland, and England. The people listed are all believed to be Scots, though a handful may have been of Scottish origin but born in America or Ireland. The author has identified each Scot named in the book by one or more of the following characteristics: details of birth, marriage and death, occupation, age, date of emigration, place of settlement, and family relationships. The new edition also contains a supplementary chronological list of all ships known to have sailed between Scotland and the Chesapeake before 1776 that brought the majority of Scots to Virginia and Maryland prior to the American Revolution; this should facilitate identifying the vessel and route taken by these immigrants.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eThis is another volume in Dobson's indispensable regional immigration series, which includes \u003ca rel=\"noopener\" title=\"Scots in the Mid-Atlantic Colonies, 1635-1783\" href=\"\/products\/102-1466\" target=\"_blank\"\u003e\u003cem\u003eScots in the Mid-Atlantic Colonies, 1635-1783\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/a\u003e, \u003ca rel=\"noopener\" title=\"Scots in the Mid-Atlantic States, 1783-1883\" href=\"\/products\/102-1467\" target=\"_blank\"\u003e\u003cem\u003eScots in the Mid-Atlantic States, 1783-1883\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/a\u003e, \u003ca rel=\"noopener\" title=\"Directory of Scots in the Carolinas Volume 1\" href=\"\/products\/102-1483\" target=\"_blank\"\u003e\u003cem\u003eDirectory of Scots in the Carolinas Volume 1\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/a\u003e, \u003ca rel=\"noopener\" title=\"Directory of Scots in the Carolinas Volume 2\" href=\"\/products\/102-9811\" target=\"_blank\"\u003e\u003cem\u003eDirectory of Scots in the Carolinas Volume 2\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/a\u003e, \u003ca rel=\"noopener\" title=\"Scots on the Chesapeake, 1621-1776, Revised Edition\" href=\"\/products\/102-8095\" target=\"_blank\"\u003e\u003cem\u003eScots on the Chesapeake, 1621-1776, Revised Edition\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/a\u003e, \u003ca rel=\"noopener\" title=\"Scots in Georgia and the Deep South 1735-1845\" href=\"\/products\/102-1471\" target=\"_blank\"\u003e\u003cem\u003eScots in Georgia and the Deep South 1735-1845\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/a\u003e, and \u003ca rel=\"noopener\" title=\"Scots in New England 1625-1873\" href=\"\/products\/102-1469\" target=\"_blank\"\u003e\u003cem\u003eScots in New England 1625-1873\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/a\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDavid Dobson\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e2012, paper, viii 204 pp.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eISBN: 9780806356075\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e102-8095\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"GPC","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":40799158960246,"sku":"102-8095","price":31.5,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1654\/3033\/files\/102-8095.png?v=1745007783"},{"product_id":"101-r3053","title":"Mortality Schedule of the Eastern Shore of Maryland 1870","description":"\u003cp\u003eThis volume provides the 1870 mortality schedule for former residents of Maryland’s Eastern Shore.
