After the English Civil War, a lot of Royalists thought it was going to get too hot for them, and they emigrated to America, where they gravitated South to the plantations and carried on the Cavalier tradition.

After only a short interval, with the restoration of the monarchy, a lot of Parliamentarians thought it was going to get too hot for them, and emigrated to America, where they gravitated North to New York and carried on the Puritan tradition.

Two hundred years later, these were the two sides that confronted each other in the American Civil War, with many of the same families at odds with each other. The South in particular was liable to exaggerate the historic connection as part of their war Propaganda. Interestingly, much of the Confederate spirit came out of the romantic novels of Walter Scott, which were eagerly read in the South.
