What became of the emigrants? Some thrived as merchants, farmers, estate owners and craftspeople. Others barely got by, moved or returned to Scotland. tinyl.co/3tPV #Covenanters #Quakers #QuakerHistory #royalists #newjerseyhistoryy #scottishhistory #emigrants #eastjersey #PerthAmboy
Why did the Scots come to East Jersey? Visions of a new settlement set out by Quaker Robert Barclay and Presbyterian George Scot. Prospects of economic gain, social mobility & religious freedom. The prisoners: no choice. tinyl.co/3tPR #Covenanters #Quakers #scottishhistory #emigrants
Who were the emigrants? Young & diverse. Episcopalians, Presbyterians & Quakers, mainly from east Scotland. Free emigrants, indentured servants & transported Covenanters. tinyl.co/3tPS #Covenanters #Quakers #royalist #newjerseyhistory #emigrants #leith #edinburgh #aberdeen #montrose
The passengers aboard the Henry and Francis were racked by fever and many did not last the crossing. Amongst their number were transported Covenanters who were soon be regarded as martyrs to the cause. #Covenanters #transportedprisoners #martyrs #Dunnottar

Lors de la visite "les femmes influentes d'Écosse" le guide a mentionné les "Killing Times". Ce nom désignent une période sombre de l’histoire écossaise, entre 1680 et 1688, marquée par une violente répression contre les presbytériens covenanters. Ces protestants écossais s’opposaient à l’ingérence de la monarchie dans les affaires religieuses, notamment à l’imposition d'une autorité religieuse intermédiaire entre les croyants protestants et Dieu. Cette règle concernant les croyances religieuses ont initialement été instaurées par les rois Charles II et Jacques VII d’Écosse. Les covenanters, accusés de trahison pour avoir refusé de prêter serment d’allégeance au roi en tant que chef suprême de l’Église, étaient pendus ou fusillés. Dans ce contexte, Édimbourg devint un lieu d’exécutions publiques. La photo démontre l'endroit exact sur la place du Grassmarket où plusieurs de ces exécutions religieuses étaient faites. Sur le pourtour de ce mémorial, on peut y lire " On this spot many martyrs and covenanters died for the protestant Faith". Cette période est aujourd’hui perçue comme un symbole fort de résistance et de la lutte pour la liberté de conscience religieuse en Écosse.

When it was obvious it was not going to happen, many emigrated. Others joined the only Covenanted regiment in the British army, The Cameronians giving the men and their families a protected Covenanted community heritagearmssa.com/2017/12/01/t...

Sounds like a Cameronian. A dissenter from the established Kirk in Scotland. Look towards the right here .... those who wished a Covenanted state church.

I think the Irish (& others) would argue that there was a certain uprising that happened of some significance too. The next war happened in 1641, not 42, and as with the Bishops' Wars, all 3x kingdoms were involved.

In town for a day or two. This view never gets old for me. A #castle which has held out for nearly a year at a time (1640 by Patrick Ruthven), but also been taken in under an hour (1639 by a certain Alexander Leslie).

Who knew that Alexander Leslie, Lord General of the Army of the Covenant, was a Campbell by fosterage (with all that entails for kith and kin loyalty)?
