Answer 2

We don't have a dedicated project, but there are some categories. See Ulster Scots and Scots-Irish Immigrants to America.

I don't really understand the difference between categories and projects.

Also how do I get those pretty images for profiles. E.g., 1776.

I guess what I want is a list so that I can see what's applicable to various profiles.

Hi Pat,    We're currently working on a template for use on Scots-Irish and Ulster Scots profiles.   Great idea - will be able to use it on some of my own ancestors profiles !!

Answer 3

Hi Patricia - It's a sub project of the UK Project.  Link to it from the main UK project page.  https://www.wikitree.com/wiki/Project:Scots-Irish_and_Ulster_Scots
