Scots and their descendants have played a major roll in America from its earliest
days. They continue to play significant roles in leadership today.
From an early age, I knew that one line of my ancestors were from Scotland but thought that was my only tie to clans and plaid. Little did I know that late one night after a string of 20-hour research days, I’d find that I descend through many more Scots lines.
Who were the family Scots in America’s early history? They are found in D. MacDougall’s book, Scots and Scots Descendants in America. Thanks to Google books, we have a copy of the book as close as our fingertips.
