Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Scotch-Irish in New England Mr. President and Brethren of the Society - The Scotch-Irish did not enter New England unheralded. Early in the spring of 1718 Rev. Mr. Boyd was dispatched from Ulster to Boston as an agent of some hundreds of those people who expressed a strong desire to remove to New England, should suitable encouragement be afforded them. His mission was to Governor Shute, of Massachusetts, then in the third year of his administration of that colony', an old soldier of King William, a Lieutenant-Colonel under Marlborough in the wars of Queen Anne, and wounded in one of the great battles in Flanders. Mr. Boyd was empowered to make all necessary arrangements with the civil authorities for the reception of those whom he represented, in case his report of the state of things here should prove to be favorable. As an assurance to the governor of the good faith and earnest resolve of those who sent him, Mr. Boyd brought an engrossed parchment twenty-eight inches square, containing the following memorial to his excellency, and the autograph names of the heads of the families proposing to emigrate: " We whose names are underwritten, Inhabitants of ye North of Ireland, Doe in our own names, and in the names of many others, our Neighbors, Gentlemen, Ministers, Farmers, and Tradesmen, Commissionate and appoint our trusty and well beloved friend, the Reverend Mr. William Boyd, of Macasky, to His Excellency, the Right Honorable Collonel Samuel Suitte, Goveruour of New England, and to assure His Excellency of our sincere and hearty Inclination to Transport ourselves to that very excellent and renowned Plantation upon our obtaining from His Excellency suitable encouragement. And further to act and Doe in our Names as his prudence shall direct. Given under our hands this 26th day of March, Anno Dorn. 1718."

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Scotch-Irish, Vol. 2: Or the Scot in North Britain, North Ireland, and North America To the thoughtful student of American history in its entirety, one of the I most interesting aspects of the subject comes from its consideration in connection with the part performed by the Scotch-Irish in helping to unite the thirteen original colonies. Although sometimes ignored, one important fact needs to be realized before we can properly estimate the forces and influences which operated to bring about and perpetuate this union. This fact, which relates peculiarly to the people whose genesis and development have now been passed in review is, that, prior to the Revolution, no other one people, of uniform race, customs, religion, and political principles, made such extensive settlements in so many of the thirteen American colonies as did the Scotch and Scotch-Irish. While it is true that New England, Pennsylvania, and Virginia were all originally settled by emigrants from different parte of England, yet the three English populations of those colonies probably differed more, one from another, in all things but a common language, than did the majority of them from the Scotch-Irish. In New England the English settlers were Puritans, individualists, and republicans - in principles the exact opposites of the English in Virginia and Carolina, who were Episcopalians, Royalists, and upholders of a slaveholding aristocracy. However, neither differed more from one another than both differed from the English of Pennsylvania and New Jersey, who were Quakers, persecuted in New England and Virginia alike, and themselves the only considerable body of English settlers in America who consistently followed their professions of religious tolerance. In Maryland, the English Cavaliers were of the Romish and Episcopal faiths, both practically united when it came to the question of driving Puritans and other dissenters from that colony. Indeed, the settlement of the English along the Atlantic seaboard in three widely separated colonies, under different laws, religions, and systems of government was chiefly due to the fact that their component elements were so radically different from and irreconcilable with one another, that at first they could not be combined.

This book was released on 2018-01-09 with total page 86 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Irish Catholic Genesis of Lowell In the early years of the 19th century, Irish emigrants arriving at the ports of Boston, New York, and even Quebec, were largely attracted by the building of the New England manufacturing towns, especially those along the Merrimack river in north-eastern Massachusetts. These emigrants toiled side by side with the native builders of the mills and canals and dug water-ways which, later, turned the wheels of the big cotton factories and machine shops. As the new industries drew thousands of employes, boarding-housesand homes were erected and Irish laborers used their brain and brawn in their construction. Of these towns, Lowell, (then known as East Chelmsford, ) was the most promising in future possibilities, and hundreds of emigrants of Celtic strain were drawn to its confines. Among them were a certain percent age of skilled Scotch, English and Irish textile workers. In the space of a few years, the new settlement became famous internationally, and the most distinguished travellers of world prominence paid it a visit and marveled at its achievements.
