Baltic Scots

[Not a Cop]

Very nice! I'll make some research on the Piersons, and then give you some feedback.

Thanks, seems like Balmadies is a little village in Angus, in 10 miles from the sea.

True, but the Scottish presence in Poland-Lithuania was different, they formed a community there.

many of he irish who fled did so because they were in hiding from the English authorities. Some of the were Jacobites that's why.

Makes sense, most of Scots in the Baltics were from East Scotland.

I've added more information, have just edited the OP. More data about marriage patterns and places of origin.

Hey everybody, I've just added more information to the text, including data on marriage patterns. I also added more photos to the gallery as well as a nice table.

When at the Poland game. Seen the name Maczynski, in the pOland side. And thought some sort of Scottish name.

Found this:

[...] In the case of Maczynski, it is possible that one of your Gaelic/Scottish ancestors was given the patronym for being the "son of Zynski."
