Description
By 1675 some Scots scholars, merchants, and Covenanters (Calvinists) were gravitating to Holland, Zealand, and Flanders, but the majority were soldiers fighting for the United Provinces for independence from the Spanish Hapsburgs and later France. Some of these Scots or their descendants came with the Dutch immigrants to America.
