Larry,
Many thanks for your response to my earlier query
about Scotch-Irish immigration into Tennessee. And
thanks for your encouragment that I may yet discover
the origins of my elusive ggrandfather William Wood.
I seem to have already tracked down and examined every
document and every scrap of paper that exists for this
man who was killed while still young, thereby
seriously limiting the paper trail he left behind. I'm
hoping to trace William's own ancestors back into the
Colonial era, a time when there was indeed a distinct
population of Scotch-Irish immigrants with settlements
in the Mid-Atlantic region and southward. If only I
could discover his own father's name, I might have
success. For now, though, I hope to learn whatever I
can about this population and their early movements
southward. Thanks again!
Sincerely,
--Mark
