Re Cline's in Scotland. Maybe Scottish - but
don't overlook the fact of the great Palatine
migration from Germany in 1709/10. They came
by thousands. England settled as many as
possible in England, Scotland and Ireland and
the rest she sent in about 7 ships to the
Hudson River Settlement to make tar for the
British Ships. The pine trees were the wrong
sort for making tar, and the Germans scattered - some to the Schoharie River
area, thence to the Mohawk River, and also
the Tulpehocken area in (now) Berks Co. PA.
The name has been spelled a million ways.
Good luck.
