For years, Scots were leaving their homeland. Poverty, famine, and crop failure were but a few reasons. In 1844 Terrence and Vivian Stewart would leave for another reason, a tragic and violent one. Their decision will set in motion a story that will follow generations from the low lands of western Scotland to Halifax Nova Scotia to northern Maine and the North Shore of Massachusetts. A route traveled by many. The mystery of Vivian and Terrence's hasty departure in 1844 would be a constant thread in the family's saga.
Follow each family as they move through their time and place in a 160-year journey. Despite the rigors of hard and dangerous occupations, our families will find time for fun and recreation. Shinty in Scotland, ice hockey, with its beginnings in Nova Scotia, and golf with its connection back to Scotland will play major roles in their lives. The human spirit will prevail as love will perform its magic in mysterious ways. The journey is painful as well as beautiful as each generation searches for its reason to be.
