Switzerland County

Scottish Immigrants in the Caledonia Settlement

This census is meant as a guide to the immigrants from Scotland who settled in western Switzerland County and eastern Jefferson County, largely centered on Caledonia Presbyterian Church. However, a number were also members of the Pleasant Presbyterian Church. There were also some Seventh Day Baptists from Scotland in the Long Run area. These families were all known to have lived at some point in Pleasant Craig, Milton, or Shelby Townships. This is not intended as a complete list of migrants. Where known, it is intended to show where these families originated in Scotland, when they came to Indiana, and where they lived in the area.
