Great stuff, Wodinaz Weraz from Mercia

Well unlike everyone else on here my ancestor fought on Cromwells side

James Warren is my 10x great grandfather. I also descend from Peter Grant. Amazing survivors. ❤️

350 years later in Alberton, Montana USA the descendents of two families attended school together. Doughty and Bean.

One of the oldest regiments in the British army

Really enjoyed that. Thanks for putting it up. 👍

When you get your history degree from the cleaning lady you get to make statements like this gentleman. Dacia included big parts from many neighboring countries that border modern day Romania. And it was not a landlocked country resumed to modern day Transylvania, which is a part of Romania. Not to start a whole debate where Greek or Roman historians left in their writings exact details regarding the lands that the Dacian inhabited.

My Ancestor only received 4 wooded acres & 1 common in 1657/8. Poor man never saw his family in Scotland again 😔 The first appearance of Alexander in New England occurs on 01 Mar 1657/8 when he is granted 4 acres of woods and 1 acre of common in Charlestown, Massachusetts. Charlestown land record 1657

Thank you! Decebalus kingdom was from Slovakia to Buzau!

My ancestor was Robert Abernathy [Ebernethel] who was a Captain at Dunbar and fought with/for Clan Leslie. Ended up in VA in 1652 as an indentured agricultural worker.

I got evidence that geordie merchants of Newcastle upon Tyne who had started colonys in America were part of the reason for the war of independence . This letter i have from the merchants and people of Newcastle upon Tyne to his majesty king George 3 apologising to the king for the trouble there fellow towns men were causing for him in the americas for refusal to pay the king colonial taxes . I found this letter on the louisiana university website . Now back then newcastle upon Tyne was a very very rich city . Historians say it was the second city of England ,the northern capital and with its great city walls and gates was though of as one of the greatest fortified citys in all of Europe inly being bettered by the walls of constantinople and Jerusalem. with a monopoly on the coal trade and our famous ship building in the river Tyne . Newcastle was an absolute powerhouse 😢😢 but that changed funny enough in the 1800s when the destruction of our city and it magnificent architectural buildings our city walls and towers and gates were all but ripped down , the government dystroyed our ship yards by not giving the city ship contracts and the coal trade stopped .Newcastle upon Tyne NOW is one of the most deprived places in all of england . I believe king George was well pissed of he lost the americas and took it out the only way be could by seizing all the colonial geordie lands and propertys in newcastle and setting about the destruction of the great northern capital . I believe one company the king siezed was the world famous newcastle brown ale company as i also found photos of a train in America that was stocked up with cases of newcastle brown and now its not ow ed by a geordie and its not even madw in newcastle any more .

Thank you Professor for keeping history alive! Yes Transilvania is part of Dacia which is Romania today! Sarmisegetuza was the capital!

We're very excited about the Turret discovery in Ouseburn. Thanks for sharing this.

@pereadam is everywhere, great historian if not the greatest ever existed. Brother with Gica Contra when it comes to Romanian History, bet is making a good living. Romanian sarcasm.

super interesting :)

Legio II, sent North from Cambria into Caledonia. Talk about out of the frying pan and into the fire!

I have an ancestor included William Eager or Aegur 1629-1690

I am an American descendent of Alexander Innes. Although I had never heard of him till I started my family ancestry a few years ago, as a New Englander, I know the area and the traditions. I read he was in the Dunbar war and the trial of his wife, so I found this video. Thank you for giving me more information and insight.

That sward is called "falx"

Just learned my ancestor John Magoon was shipped to the Massachusetts Bay Colony aboard The Unity in 1650. I also had no idea about this part of history. It sounds pretty brutal.

A descendent of Robert Junkins here; just recently came upon this history and fascinated to find so much documentation!

Im thrilled that she mentioned my paternal 10th great grandfather who came over on the Unity to Boston as a POW. John MacKholme & yes our name has been butchered from day 1 here in the states! Lol. 10.42 she mentions the difficulty of the names. But i didnt realize a possible brother he was with, David. I only wish my parents were still alive to find out all this incredible knowledge of our past. Also mentioned a Scot in Woodbridge, NJ & thats where Im from. I bet that was my gg. I thank you

My ancestor Robert Dunbar was among the Scot prisoners of war who were taken to New England, in the American colony of New England as a Saugus Iron Works mine worker. He later bought his freedom and did well in society there in New England. I believe these men were technically prisoner of war slaves but polite company calls the situation, indentured. The men had no freedom unless they paid their price.

I'm a descendant of William Furbish, mentioned in the video! He survived Dunbar, the March, being imprisoned in the church, and the ship's crossing to America, then 7-8 years of involuntary servitude in Maine. After release he married and became a founding member of Kittery, Maine. They survived a vicious attack by the natives that few in the village survived. What this family went through, and prospered anyways is mind blowing.

My ancestor was James Warren

Excellent presentation. And spot on with the concluding comments about we descendants carrying on their legacy.

10th great Grandkid of William Gowen who ended up in Kittery. Thank you for the video, I am using some of the info in the flavoring of my MFA thesis!

My ancestor is Thomas Kelton. He survived the Battle of Dunbar, was shipped to the Americas and became an indentured servant. His descendants fought bravely in the Revolutionary War.

Thank you so much for this! I am searching for information regarding my great great great grandfather, Nathaniel Kinner of Fifeshire Scotland, who is said to have been on the Unity, and whom I have just found his resting place. Any information or contacts that anyone would be willing to offer to me, I will be grateful to receive. Thank you!

What other inscriptions are there that prove Hadrian built the wall?

Thank you for the video. Two of my ancestors were on the Unity: Phillip McIntyre and Malcom Macallum. Strange to think that if they weren't sent to America as indentured servants i wouldn't be here today along with all the rest of the Unity Decendants. Somebody needs to make a movie or a mini series about this...

My Ancestor is McGann /McCann, Scottish, I'm more Scottish living in Jamaica. thanks for this history, it's really helping me figure out this whole story. I didnt know this history. it all adds up!. thanks

My ancestor was Daniel Robbins from Blair Atholl. He was the farmer mentioned in this video as the one who moved to Woodbridge, New Jersey after completing his indentureship for Nathaniel Foote of Wethersfield, Connecticut.

Exceptionally well done and finely detailed presentation, absolutely deserving of a bookmark on my browser. My ancestors include Scottish prisoners of war Philip McIntire and James Fraser, both of whom were shipped to servitude in Massachusetts. Thank you so much, Ms. Serdiville!

My ancestor was a prisoner of war taken to New Hampshire. May his bravery live on 🇺🇸🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

yikes

Descendant of Edmund Moody and a man named Clark. Any additional inform would be appreciated. Thanks.

My 8th G. grandfather, Alestar MacMallin, was sent to the Saugus Iron Works-aboard the ship Unity with 2 friends-Alexander and Archibald whose last names I do not know. Alestar had a son he named Alexander and a grandson Archibald. If the English thought they'd done away with the MacMallins they were very much wrong. Alestar's descendants now number in the 10s of thousands and played a large part in the history of this great nation.

Robert Dunbar was my 10th Great Grandfather, I had heard some of this story but not all. I can track my family across America from Boston in the 1650 till now in the Pacific Northwest. Thank you for giving us even more of our story.

What an old bore she is!

My 10th Great Grandfather Peter Grant (1631-1712) was a Scottish Prisoner and was sold as a slave laborer at Saugus. He was 19 when he arrived in America James Grant 1672-1735 Son of Peter Grant Sarah Grant 1701-1793 Daughter of James Grant Isabella Austin 1727-1808 Daughter of Sarah Grant Sarah Savage 1757-1825 Daughter of Isabella Austin Thankful Shaw 1794-1860 Daughter of Sarah Savage Orydine Waldin Scribner 1818-1895 Daughter of Thankful Shaw Orison Scribner Smith Sr. 1845-1921 Son of Orydine Waldin Scribner Orison Scribner Smith Jr. 1889-1981 Son of Orison Scribner Smith Sr. Lester Carl Smith Sr. 1920-1996 Son of Orison Scribner Smith Jr. Shirley Ann Smith 1942-2020 Daughter of Lester Carl Smith Sr. My Dad Me

looking for the history of Thomas Doty -Doughty

My ancestor is James Warren. He was brought over to America from Scotland as a slave, and may have been apart of the Dunbar war. This information is in my family Bible. Adriel Warren of Berwick, Maine: His Forebears and descendants.

I'm a decedent of Duncan Stuart.

My 8th grandfather was Alexander Beall. It is possible that he was a brother or cousin of Ninian Beall. Both settled in Maryland in Calvert county.

My name is Nicholas Cleghorn, ancestor of James Cleghorn. The ship unity is as far back as I can find. I would love to know his parents and so on

My Grandfather Duncan Stewart was captured at the battle of Dunbar, and was sold into indentured servitude. He ended up in Ipswich, Massachusetts. Working for a shipwright. He was the first Stewart in the new world.

My paternal ancestor was Daniel cone, who fought in the battle of dunbar and ended up in sangus massachusetts to work in the mill towns

Thanks for the history. I am a descendant of Ninian Beall and you are right about the redish hair and height even in today's Beall family.
