This volume, unlike the first, is based largely on previously published material such as government serial publications, contemporary newspapers, periodical articles, and family histories. In addition, there is data from some previously unpublished ships' passenger lists and documents in the Scottish Record Office in Edinburgh.

At least half of the immigrants identified in this volume sailed to Canada or the West Indies initially, the rest arriving at ports in the coastal states of America. Among them were doctors, ministers, educators, indentured servants, transportees, merchants, and ordinary laborers. About 4,000 immigrants are listed. While the data provided varies according to the records used, there is a general amalgam of information giving age, date and place of birth, occupation, place of residence, names of spouse and children, date and place of arrival in North America, and the death date.

This volume is also available on our Family Archive CD 7268.
