Maine Ulster Scots Project Presentation at Thomaston Public Library - Thursday, April 23, 6:30 PM, Thomaston The story of Ulster-Scots in Maine and their impact on New England is sometimes overlooked and oversimplified in traditional historical narratives. Scots-Irish migration, which began in 1718, formed the backbone of many Maine communities. Their influence can be found in our legal systems, preference for local control, relationships to the land, and dry Maine humor. 2020 census data confirms that Maine has the highest percentage of self-identified Scottish and Scots-Irish descendants in the entire country. This interactive program, presented by interim president of the Maine Ulster Scots Project, Julie Dunlop-Potter, will focus on the history and settlement of Ulster-Scots emigrants along the coast of Maine. It will encompass three main areas of Ulster-Scots settlements in Maine, including Georgetown, Walpole, and St. George, and discuss the ongoing archaeological dig at Merrymeeting Bay that uncovered artifacts from 1718 settlers. Julie Dunlop-Potter, Ph.D, is a direct descendant of Scots-Irish emigrants arriving in the District of Maine on the “MacCallum” in 1718. Professionally, she is a retired Nurse Educator who served at the University of Hawai’i Maui College. Privately, she is an amateur genealogist, historian, and archaeological excavation site team member.
