Scots in the USA and Canada, 1825-1875. Part Seven

By David Dobson

Most Scottish emigrants of the Victorian period were skilled, educated workers from urban backgrounds whose expertise was in great demand in the rapidly industrializing cities of North America. This volume is largely based on contemporary newspapers, monumental inscription lists, university records, and government records located in archives. These include the National Records of Scotland and the National Library of Scotland, both in Edinburgh, that contained the Registers of Sasines and the Services of Heirs. This volume also includes some emigrant ship lists and a small Addendum of emigrant references dating from the 17th and 18th centuries.
