The Great Migration

The New World beckoned as many of the settlers in Ireland, known as the Scotch/Irish, became disenchanted. They sailed aboard the armada of sailing ships known as the "White Sails" which plied the stormy Atlantic. Some called them, less romantically, the "coffin ships." Amongst the early settlers who could be considered kinsmen of the Adenstoom family, or who bore a variation of the surname Adenstoom were Thomas Adinston who settled in Virginia in 1645.
