You are more than due a compliment! My ancestor, James Adams, was one of the prisoners. Perhaps they didn't term them prisoners of war by the standards we have today, but ... James Adams was "sold" to the Saugus Iron Works in Saugus, MA. and served his indenture of 7 years. He afterwards settled in Concord and raised a family. My husband, sister, and I visited the Saugus Iron Works a few years back (it is now a National Park) and found James Adams' name there. I purchased a booklet entitled "Scotch Prisoners Deported to New England by Cromwell, 1651-52: From the Battles of Dunbar and Worcester" (Copyright Unicorn Limited, Inc., 1997) which has many, many footnotes giving sources. James Adams and many others are in the booklet. I purchased it from Scotpress, P. O. Box 397, Bruceton Mills, West Virginia 26525.
