The Scots-Irish were some of the first settlers to make the backcountry of the Appalachian region their home. Their beliefs of individuality, self-reliance, and strong kinship ties have shaped Georgia throughout its history and to this very day. Come learn about this group of people through living history presentations, demonstrations, and crafts during our free Family Day on March 12th from 1 PM to 4 PM at the Northeast Georgia History Center!

This program is free to the public thanks to the Ada Mae Ivester Education Center!
