Ulster Sails West
Музыка
A patriotic take on the Ulster-Scot emigration to North America and how these 'stubborn people' shaped the USA and it's politics. It particularly focuses on the ancestral homes of America's Scots-Irish Presidents. A vintage 1974 (27 mins) documentary.
Presented by Charles Witherspoon.
Musical ballad arrangements by Billy White.
Illustrations by Rowel Friers.

I like the glimpse of the Massey-Ferguson tractor at 8:13. Harry Ferguson was an Ulsterman, so this machine befits the subject matter here.
Up the Ulster Scots.
Thanks for this, great video
Ulster heritage here.
Amazing video - I kinda wish life was like that now, not with famine but the life of Susana making her bred etc.
Yer wee cartoon man at 1:35 digs with the wrong foot.
What year was this video made? Looks like late 60s or early 70s.

Nay. Not Scotch irish! The Scotch irish live in Scotland! It was the Ulster Scots who left Ulster for the new world! Ulster was never, and never will be irish! Edit. We even have our own language, IT'S CALLED ULSTER SCOTS!

This was before there ever was a republic of Ireland or even a partition, ya head-melter! Some of the SCOTS-IRISH came from the Lowlands of Scotland and the borders of England & Scotland, and some from what was the Plantation of Ulster, in...wait for it...Ireland! Which is what it was called in 1720, and where they sailed from, which is what was on the ships manifest, and therefore on their immigration records. Some even sailed from Dublin or Liverpool. Some of them called themselves Scots, others Irish, and some just preferred to be called Americans. You call yourself whatever you like, and we Scots-Irish in America will do the same, as we have done for centuries, and will do for many more.

Agree. We did MUCH better in the United States of America. Helped build the greatest country the world has ever seen. And you’re still stuck on a tiny cold island.
