>I am trying to get information on Josiah McLain, born 12-1-1788, died
7-21-1883. He came to America from northern Ireland as a child or young
man. He is buried in the Mars Hill Church cemetery near Acworth, Cobb
County, Georgia, US.
>Is there a way to search for Scots who came to the US via Ireland? What
port(s) in the US would have been the most likely one(s) for immigrants
from Ireland?
>I am visiting Scotland in June and would like to have additional
information on my McLain (and other spellings) ancestors before going. My
father did a thorough search 30 or so years ago but that was without the
internet resources available today, so I'm hoping to find links that he
couldn't find.
>Any help or suggestions would be appreciated.
