The Clan

The Clan settled in the Appalachian mountains of what would become West Virginia. They came here to prosper and escape persecution from the Church of Scotland for their Pagan beliefs. They arrived in 1773 just after the Revolutionary war. Now close to one hundred years later they are in the midst of the Civil war and trying to avoid contact with outsiders. Their anonymity is paramount; they are adamant about preserving their ways. But this will become a great challenge as the war claims their leader. Thomas McFarland is the leader of the clan but after a family tragedy he decides to leave and join the army. Leaving behind his three daughters and their Grandmother.
