The first was about a girl whose father had died and was put in the care of her uncle. She gets visited by ghosts of her ancestors who were alive at the time of the American Revolution, and who tell her what their lives were like and try to help her adjust. The ghosts were an American officer, his sister, his love interest, and a British officer who ended up marrying the sister after the war.
The second book was set in 1700s Scotland, about a girl with the second sight. She ends up breifly living with a rich or noble family, and falls in love with one of the sons. That's all I remember about it.
Don't recommend to me your favorite books unless you also answer the question with a real answer. Chances are, I'm at least aware of them, and if not then I probably don't like the genre.

Well, I dont know the books you're looking for, unfortunately, but I can give you more suggestions on places to look.

They both are very active and very helpful communities, by the way. :)

It sounds like something by Barbara Michaels-- Patriot's Dream, maybe? The other one-- well, the plot fits a lot of books.
Good luck in finding the titles!
