I keep cut-and-paste collections like this myself, Neil, and have been consistently amazed, after letting a few weeks or months go by and re-scouring the web, how many new chunks there are to be found and added! You have surely proven that again by adding some great new ones below for me!! Thanks for all of them. And, Isn't Linda Merle one consistently *amazing* source on any topic Scotch-Irish, that anyone can think of—and even some you can't? ;-) Now back to reading in even more detail the ones you've added to my 1718 collection! Ruth P.S. Another good source for 1718 is doing repeated searches within Mailing Lists and Message Boards Archives for surnames of both people and places involved in the 1718 emigration; and the results of simply googling "1718 emigration" every few weeks is quite terrific.

Hi Ruth, I took your advice and signed up for this. Some, like this one, are very interesting! I am hoping to study it closely soon. [ I was at a presentation this evening by Mark Jodoin, an Ottawa author, who wrote a book about VT and NY loyalists.] Have sent some things to Larry and hope to hear from him soon. Need more genealogy time! Looks like the other TN Smith cousin is testing: 177165 John C. Smith, b c1812 Carter and Sullivan counties, TN; m Jincy Taylor. Expected to match with Group 26. 67 marker kit ordered 03/30. Did your Smith contact go ahead with testing also? n --- On Mon, 4/5/10, Ruth McLaughlin <[email protected]> wrote: From: Ruth McLaughlin <[email protected]> Subject: Re: [S-I] 1718-1719 S-I Emigration To: [email protected] Date: Monday, April 5, 2010, 10:19 PM I keep cut-and-paste collections like this myself, Neil, and have been consistently amazed, after letting a few weeks or months go by and re-scouring the web, how many new chunks there are to be found and added!

"Oops! I'm new this business of a mailing list and, after reading Neil's post, I wanted to send a message to Ruth related to the 1718 research the two of us are doing—but I sent it to all of you instead! Oh chagrin. I've learned my lesson. My apologies. Nancy
