Some early Scots in maritime Canada. Volume III / Terrence M. Punch, CM, FRSAI, FIGRS. by Punch, Terrence M. Genealogical Pub. Co., c2012. Call #: 929.3715 P984s v.3 Subjects Scots -- Maritime Provinces -- Genealogy.   Maritime Provinces -- Genealogy.   Maritime Provinces -- Emigration and immigration.   Scotland -- Emigration and immigration. ISBN:  9780806319223 (pbk.) Alternate title:  Early Scots in Maritime Canada. Volume III Scots in Maritime Canada. Volume III Description:  vi, 177 p. : ill., maps ; 28 cm. Notes:  Includes indexes. Summary:  "As a convenient reference point, the book opens with maps of Ayrshire, Dumfries-shire, and Perthshire, the three Scottish shires that contributed significantly to Scots immigration into Maritime Canada. Next there is a comprehensive list of the 1,200 ships that are known to have sailed from Scotland to the Maritimes between 1770 and 1852. If a passenger list has been published for any of these voyages, it is indicated in the footnotes, but otherwise the ports of departure and arrival and the dates of the voyage provide significant clues to an immigrant’s place of origin in Scotland and place of settlement in Canada. Names that suddenly make their appearance in Canadian records can then be matched with shipping records. Two lists in particular may prove of special value; they are Cape Breton land petitions, 1821-1836, and newspaper announcements, 1854-1863. The former gives marital status and number of dependents, while the latter shows that not all Scots immigrants lived in rural areas but were just as likely to live in cities."--Genealogical.com Holds:  0   Copy/Holding information Location Collection Call No. Item type Status   Woodlawn Public Library Adult Nonfiction 929.3715 P984s v.3 Adult books Checked in Add Copy to MyList Central Library Local History Collection 929.3715 P984s v.3 Non-circulating Local History Room - Central Library, 4th Floor Add Copy to MyList Sackville Public Library Adult Nonfiction 929.3715 P984s v.3 Adult books Checked in Add Copy to MyList Cole Harbour Public Library Adult Nonfiction 929.3715 P984s v.3 Adult books Checked in Add Copy to MyList Halifax North Memorial Public Library Adult Nonfiction 929.3715 P984s v.3 Adult books Checked in Add Copy to MyList Tantallon Public Library Adult Nonfiction 929.3715 P984s v.3 Adult books Checked in Add Copy to MyList
