It then goes on to describe how a branch of the family, led by George Hume, migrated to Virginia in the early 18th century. The book details the family's experiences in Virginia, including their interactions with other prominent families in the area, their involvement in local politics, and their participation in the American Revolution.Throughout the book, the author provides a detailed account of the Hume family's history, including their genealogy and the various branches of the family that emerged over time. The book also includes numerous illustrations, maps, and genealogical charts to help readers better understand the family's history and lineage.Overall, A Colonial Scottish Jacobite Family: The Establishment In Virginia Of A Branch Of The Humes Of Wedderburn is a fascinating historical account of a Scottish family and their experiences in colonial America.
