Table of Contents

Like the first volume in the series, this collection of records is based on materials found in the Nova Scotia Archives and the Public Archives of New Brunswick, among others, and it draws together a unique collection of miscellaneous records pertaining to Scottish immigrants to the Maritime Provinces, naming several thousand people in the context of major life events such as birth, marriage, and death. In records ranging from newspaper announcements of marriages and deaths to cemetery records and censuses, and from ships passenger lists to land records, it provides a tableau of source material which is as unique as it is indispensable. Thousands are named who would otherwise be undetectable in traditional record sources.

In an illuminating introduction the author writes: The differences of religion and whether one was a Highlander or a Lowlander carried across the Atlantic to the Maritime Provinces of Canada. The Lowlander, more accustomed to towns and trade, gravitated to cities such as Halifax and Saint John, and the towns of Pictou, St. Andrews and Dalhousie. Much of the commercial life of early Atlantic Canada was conducted by Lowland Scots. This is apparent as we read through the newspaper death announcements and we notice that Aberdeen, Glasgow and Edinburgh turn up repeatedly among the urban and mercantile people.

The Highlander, by contrast, prevailed in rural districts. Similarly, people sorted themselves out by religion. The area around the Bay of Fundy, the Bras d'Or Lakes and Pictou attracted the Presbyterian elements, while Antigonish, much of the Gulf of St. Lawrence coastline, and parts of Prince Edward Island were heavily Roman Catholic.

With this background it is clear that Maritime Canada still bears the imprint of those thousands of immigrants who came from Scotland between the 1770s and the 1850s, and their collective memory remains alive and well.

Cute but flimsy soles
Size: 9-12 Months Infant, Color: Mariposa Light Pink Leather, Size: 9-12 Months Infant, Color: Mariposa Light Pink Leather
I wanted to love these because they're the few leather options out there. Unfortunately, the soles are made of a flimsy material that came apart after less than 2 weeks of wear. Not sure how long they'll last...

Fits like a sock
We bought these for the Florida beaches, not knowing whether our beach would have debris, shells, or the common straw sticking up to assault your feet! We bought them for our one year old and she loved them. The sole is thin and moveable, but still protected her feet. Our beach ended up being pristine and clean, so she didn’t really need them. We let her wear them at home in the grass because she was that obsessed with them. Nice product and we’d buy them again, if needed!

Favorite Robezz shoe style
These are great, flexible sole that is a step up from the leather soles. This is a rubber gripper sole that protects the foot but gives great moment for new walkers! The fabric was better in person than I expected.

Great water shoes! Flexible and long-lasting!
We've gotten several months of fairly hard use out of these bad boys. They're awesome (just like everything else Robeez makes!). I love how stretchy they are - the stretchiness has allowed us to get quite a bit of use out of them during a time where my kiddo is growing like crazy. Great shoes - would highly recommend!

Shoes ripped after less than a week.
Size: 12-18 Months Toddler, Color: Scuba Green Spandex, Size: 12-18 Months Toddler, Color: Scuba Green Spandex
My baby has a wide toebox and very thick feet so finding shoes that fit his him can be difficult. These shoes fit him perfectly and I love how flexible the sole is too! Sadly though, the fabric started ripping by the third wear. If it only happened on one of the shoes I would assume it was a defect, but since the toes on both shoes ripped out my opinion is that it’s probably a quality issue. Such a bummer, I really wanted to like these shoes!
