Landfall

According to the researcher at the Cecil County Historical Society, most of the Ulster Scots landed here in New Castle, Delaware.  (Although some ships came through Philadelphia.)  She also told me that New Castle had been a contender to be the colonial attraction that eventually went to Williamsburg instead.The Youngs may have docked here and set foot in the New World for the first time.
