Now, why would Cornwalis leave troops on shore ~ several reasons ~ their term of service was up so he paid them mustering out pay and they simply stayed. Or, maybe he had a shortage of lift capacity back to the Old Country. Recall, Lafayette's cousin, Admiral Bouille (both those guys were Louis XVI's cousin too) had been using a large piece of the French navy to keep the Brits from resupplying Cornwallis, and they sank a few British ships.
Another reason for those guys staying is they had relatives in South Carolina~!
America wasn't necessarily all that good for rich people, but it was, in its day, the best poor man's land in the whole world. Land was cheap. The war was over. The Scots ran half the place. What's there to ask?
It seems to me,the English,could easily trash McCain,seeing how their frame of mind,or mindset,would rather see Hillery of Obama win the Election.
BTW I wanted Duncan Hunter or Thompson for President.

The old guy did go to South Carolina, and IIRC was married there. The brother went to Canada and my guy went to SW Ohio.And they both did very well.
As to Beech Green Scotland all I ever find is a school in England and my kin asking the same question? Thanks
