Brave New World - Ulster-Scots emigration

Brave New World was a TV documentary series highlighting the story of Ulster-Scots emigration around the world. Taking in America, Canada, New Zealand and Australia to tell the stories of some remarkable Ulster-Scots men and women who made their mark in the New World. Returning to home soil for this final episode, William Crawley finds out what those stories reveal about the Ulster-Scots diaspora as a whole and how the loss of sons and daughters, neighbours and friends over generations has made emigration part of our story and of this world, Back Home.
Amongst others, this film looks at people such as:
John Steinbeck
Andrew Mellon
William King
James Dillworth
Samuel Robinson
Nellie Bly (Elizabeth Cochrane)
Sarah Friar

What a beautiful tribute. My ancestors are Callen’s and Dillen’s. I’d love to learn more about them. They immigrated in the early 1700’s in Delaware and made their way to the frontier of western Pennsylvania. Thank you for making this documentary. Our history is so important. I dream of returning to my homeland. ☘️

We have many traditions in N Ireland unfortunately we can’t come together and learn one and others history and traditions. This documentary is fascinating and very interesting.

I'm a historian on immigration with ties to Ulster. My 3rd great grandmother Susanna McPartland left Armagh with her parents just four years before the famine, sailing to Boston and meeting and marrying my 3rd great grandfather in New Bedford. They lived in upstate New York for a time before joining a wagon train to the Midwest, settling in a town in central Wisconsin called Horicon. Her husband and eldest son died in the Civil War at Gettysburg, while she remained in Horicon until her death in 1907

[@lynnquillen4813]

Trying for years to find out exactly where my great grandparents came from, somewhere in Co. Armagh. John and Mary (Kyle) Garland came to the US and settled in Pawtucket, Rhode Island. John, according to my uncle, became an employer of the Public Works Department and he and Mary would welcome new Irish immigrants to their home. Their youngest son, my grandfather Richard, graduated from Brown University, spoke several languages, was Superintendent of Music in Pawtucket schools ans was the choir director and organist at St Paul's Episcopal Church. He died when I was a baby amd I never learned what their religion was back in Ireland, why they left, did they leave family behind...

Ulster people like many other like them, they were at the edge for such a long time that when they migrated and joined the world they had the energy of the new comers, like barbarians or mongols, or romans, greeks and so on throughout history.

Yeah, we also owned, used, and ate domestic animals. To a vegan, that's monstrous. If the dominant culture here was vegetarian, we'd have to hear never-ending sermonizing about how evil our ancestors were for their animal husbandry. Instead, it's never-ending sermonizing about slavery. We did not invent it. We had no part in the international trade of slaves. We did not own a single slave auction house, and only had a tiny fraction of the Scots-Irish population owned slaves.

Can the Scotts Irish influence the Northern Irish for independance from England ? They were driven from their Scotts homeland by the English, then set up to do the same dirty work against the Irish.

most of these so called scots irish would still have been full scots having lived in ireland a few years or even months then left fer amerikay due to the tensions in ireland. if a bunch of americans were forced to live in scotland a few years then went to france would the french label them as scots-americans....no, they would still be ameican. the only reason they are labeled scots irish is that was their last port of call before amerikay. if these same people hadthen only lived a few years in amerikay then moved to german would the germans label scots-irish-american. no. these people were scots.

By your logic, someone of African ancestry born in America is either African or American, but cannot be anything as unique as African American. Take your statements as a formula, plug in a few different nouns and see if the formula holds true before you state it as such. You will save yourself much embarassment.

[@Tojazzer]

Ulster/Scots diaspora? You invented this "culture". When you speak of anything of this heritage, it's mostly what you stole from aboriginal Irish Celts. This is ethnic misappropriation.

[@tiggergolah]

So, emigrants from Scotland weren't Celtic? Read some history before you spout and make yourself look foolish. Immigration between Scotland and Ireland went both ways over millenia, so yes, they are both Celtic.

I'm wondering today, if the Presbyterian Churches in Ulster and Scotland are as 'woke" as the Presbyterian Church in the USA (PCUSA)?????? I was born and raised in the Presbyterian Church in a village in western New York, a congregation that today adheres to the policies of the woke PCUSA. I left many years ago when the General Assembly of the PCUSA chose to go ultra liberal and endorse same-sex marriages, gay pastors, and other ultra-liberal policies. They also endorse a policy that named Israel as apartheid and recalled the church's endorsement and investments in that nation. I can no longer attend such a church or its ultra liberal philosophy and could search for a congregation of the Presbyterian church which still adheres to the old tenets of an earlies day>

[@ivandinsmore6217]

The Church of Scotland is mostly Liberal. The Free Church of Scotland and the Irish Presbyterians are more conservative.
