Spanning three centuries from the shores of Ireland to the Chesapeake Bay Area to the Pacific Northwest, this saga brings to life the early days of the founding of this country. 606 $aScots-Irish$vGenealogy 607 $aVirginia$vGenealogy 607 $aUnited States$vGenealogy 615 0$aScots-Irish 676 $a929 676 $a929.20973 676 $a929/.20973 700 $aMatthews$b Linda H$01677483 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910816988503321 996 $aMiddling folk$94044382 997 $aUNINA
