Major Ross's North Irish Volunteers ca. 1757-1759

[DOC]

Here is an interesting Belfast promissory note related to Major Ross’s North Irish Volunteers. It is a modern pull printed in 1972 from an old plate dating back to 1757-1759. These ‘pulls’ appear on the market from time to time and only 250 were printed. The denomination is in open format in the style of notes of the time.

[Mac]

An older style 'Scottish' square format, relatively unusual for Irish notes.

[DOC]

Yes, given the format, there could be a Scottish influence here.
