In this book, David Dobson has culled all the genealogical references to the Americas made in "Scottish" sources appearing in the Aberdeen Journal between 1748 and 1783. By "Scottish," the compiler refers only to sources within Scotland, and not data which the Journal published from English or colonial sources. The period covers the years when the Chesapeake tobacco trade was under the control of Glasgow merchants and Scottish emigration to the colonies was becoming significant. Mr. Dobson has abstracted and arranged in chronological order some 750 references from the Aberdeen newspaper, giving the issue number for each reference so that researchers may consult the original if they so desire.
