I don't have my sources since my old computer died. The best I remember is that the Highland Regiments were the only ones wearing kilts and they gave them up in favor of trews due to the thickness of brush in the new world. Check out http://frontierfolk.net/mb/ and ask as there are folks there who truly live 18th century and can point you to resources for either east or west of the Blue Ridge.
YMOS,
Tony

Also check out Canadian history as too much of early American history actually took place there, here.
The Red River Settlement, 1812, was kilted up to the first winter.
The maritime provinces also have kilted histories.
