Thanks Keith, interesting . May I ask where you found the ships transporting McQueens to Americas? I think you are right about the mispronunciation by the Scots accent. Thats why I think the OPR in Wigtown wrote Owen Quinn instead of Owen Queen as he was named in 1841 census just four years later. It drives one made trying to sort them out though.

Hi again Dawn, This morning I came across a list of those McQueens who were transported to the Colonies in 1716. If you're interested they were: Daniel McQueen and Daniel McQuinn on the "Scipio", March 30 1716. John McQuinn on the "Susannah" to South Carolina, May 7 1716. Alexander, David, Dougall, Hector and John McQueen on the "Friendship" to Maryland, May 24 1716. Daniel(Duncan) McQuinn on the "Elizabeth & Anne" to Virginia, June 29 1716. The name McQuinn was thought to be a mispronunciation of the Scottish accent of McQueen.

Hi Pat, I can't honestly say where I got the list of all the prisoners transported to "the Colonies" from (there were about 800 in all) but it was quite a long time ago.
