This book, which is designed as an aid to family historians seeking their origins in Lanarkshire or Clydesdale, as it was once known, is the third volume in a series designed to provide information on Scottish communities that participated in the Ulster exodus. The Old Parish Registers of the Church of Scotland are the backbone of Scottish genealogical research, and in the case of county Lanark their survival is better than average, with 53 such registers extant. This work, however, supplements information found in the church records and is based almost completely on primary sources, including the Register of Deeds of the Court of Session, Lanarkshire Sasines, the Registers of Testaments for Lanark and Glasgow, Monumental Inscription lists, the Register of Burgesses and Guildsbrethren of Glasgow, and the Register of the Privy Council of Scotland. While Mr. Dobson makes no claims for comprehensiveness, this book does identify more than 2,000 seventeenth-century residents of Lanarkshire who may have figured in the exodus to Ulster. Each such individual is identified by name, occupation, at least one date (e.g., burgess of Ayr, 1607, or testament, 1662), and the source of the information. In many cases the entries also identify the resident=s parents, spouse, or offspring; vessel(s) traveled on; additional dates; and more.
