This is the story of the Robert Nathaniel McDill family. It begins in prehistory in the southwest corner of Scotland, then chronicles the family's migration to Northern Ireland, their voyage to the colony of South Carolina and finally their journey into the western states and territories. The book is carefully researched, clearly written, and a must-read for anyone of the name McDill or anyone interested in the history of the Scots- Irish people. Valuable research and source material for the related Callaham, Cloud and Petty families is also included.
