Richard, Thank you for forwarding a wonderfully succinct description of 1641. Also, I recently enjoyed reading your book: "Scotch-Irish Merchants in Colonial America". It contained lots of references to families that I am following. I now have 6,700 people included in my family tree (link beneath) many of them related to Scotch-Irish. As I get new sources and correct old errors, I update the tree. The roots of it are sinking into more solid earth on a daily basis. Same with my web site. Again, thanks, Sharon Oddie Brown Roberts Creek, BC, Canada History Project: http://www.thesilverbowl.com/ Some Become Flowers: http://www.harbourpublishing.com/title/SomeBecomeFlowers Family Tree: http://wc.rootsweb.ancestry.com/cgi-bin/igm.cgi?db=silverbowl
