In this episode we read from "A History of Rockbridge County, Virginia" by Oren Frederic Morton, published in 1920 about the massacres that took place in 1759 and 1763 in Kerr's Creek Virginia. But first, we read about the Scots-Irish clan McKee, and some of their history in Ireland and Scotland, because they immigrated to western Virginia around 1738. William McKee participated in the heroic defense of Londonderry in 1689, and many of his sons and daughters would flee oppression by coming to America.
