Scots Irish
Hello Friends,
I came on this bit of research about the Scots survivors of Cromwell's campaign in Ireland. The article relates that perhaps 1700 Scots prisoners died there, while others were set to work elsewhere, or indentured, some to N America.

(prisoners from the 1650 Battle of Dunbar, in which Oliver Cromwell’s force defeated a Scots army.)
