Scottish Settlement of Darien, Georgia

[Deil the Yin]

Congrats on your great score... Darien is indeed an interesting historical topic. I've read Parker's book myself and really enjoyed it. I highly recommend it to anyone interested in Scottish roots in the South.

Cheers,
Wesley

Darien is an interesting name for a settlement given the history of Darien, Panama. The City of Darien website says the Scots picked the name themselves.

When Scots children are taught about Darien, it is this

which was largely responsible for the union of the parliaments in 1707.

That sounds, good. I was thinking about printing it and taking pictures and posting those, but this sounds better. I just need to make some typo corrections and get rid of some redundancies and then I can email it.

I just sent the paper to Deirachel, so it should be posted soon.
