This book identifies residents of the Hebrides-- a small group of islands off the west coast of Scotland--especially the islands of Skye, Islay, Mull, Lewis, and Harris, and Hebrideans who emigrated to the Carolinas, Maritime Canada, and Australia during the early 19th century. The Highlander emigrants-including the Hebrideans--emigrated as family groups, settling together where they could maintain their Gaelic language, culture, and religion. This work, drawing upon primary sources in Scotland and abroad, identifies close to 1,500 heads of household by name, a date, a place in the islands, and the source.
