Thanks for watching! Please let me know your thoughts below...

The Robertson clan contingent, led by Donald Robertson of Woodsheal, suffered along with the rest of the Atholl Brigade. About half of its men were left on the field of battle. Donald was wounded and left for dead. His younger brothers, Alexander and Charles, both died. Alexander was killed while attempting to cut his way through to his wounded older brother while Charles died later from his wounds.

I've heard the Atholl Highlanders included 200 MacDougalls. The chief didn't join in the uprising but his brother did & fought at Culloden.

Another excellent video, well done.

Thank you

Interesting

Clan Baird fought as well. I do believe

My grandfather was there, William Lawson of the McLaren clan. He was 15 and there with his father, William Lawson - go figure. There were a lot of teenage boys captured and taken to the prison in London. The English wasn't sure what to do with them. Public outcry kept them alive but many of these boys were now heads of their clan and welded a lot of power. The English couldn't keep 2-way conversation from happening between them and their families and they made a lot of trouble while in prison. Many were sent to America as endentured servants including my grandfather. He was put in the house of a loyal English subject and given into the care of the cook. The first time the cook got up in his face, young William grabbed up a kitchen knife and cut off a couple of the cook's fingers. He ran out the door and no one ever found him. He had family in the colonies and safe haven. William Lawson had a long life and many children. As an old man he fought the English again, in the revolution. Because he and a few other colonels took their men, surrounded the English army and pushed them up to the top of a mountain before springing on them, the Americans won that war. They claim the he may be the only man to fight in 2 revolutions. They called him "The Rebel Lawson" which is on his tombstone in Snowflake Virginia to this day.

McIntyre!!!

A few of my ancestors fought at Culloden, however they weren't active participants as a clan, they did however engage at Bannockburn, very much so, and were ardent support to Robert The Bruce, his daughter Marjories daughter, Isabella, married my 25th great grandfather

Maclaren!!! 😉

LONG LIVE CLAN MACLACHLAN

Did Any Clan Morrison or Morrison's fight ??

I never came across any mention of them, but perhaps they did. It's hard to get a complete breakdown of everyone involved, although I tried to as best as possible

Hello from Montana,ever heard of Peter McMullan,🐓☠️🚬🗡️🗡️☠️

The narrator must have been from clan mc bald

Do you fancy doing a video on King James VI and how his decisions have continued to impact society even today? I have mixed feelings on him, in some instances he is looked back upon as a "good" king, but with regards to the witch trials he is ultimately responsible for the deaths (many by strangulation and burning) of over 3000 people, mainly women. Whilst my ancestors were apparently close to him and his wife, I find it hard to reconcile with his decisions, but obviously understand perspectives on religion, and fear of the "devil" were very different back then. I know he eventually changed his stance slightly but it doesnt excuse the torture thousands went through both due to his direct, and indirect, involvment. Have you read Daemonology at all?

Moir of Stonywood's Battalion of Lord Lewis Gordon's Regiment

My mother was born a 'MacMillan'. I'm glad her family made it to South London!

If you were around in 1745, would you have fought with the Clan Cameron Regiment, along with the rest of the MacMillian Clan? Ach... politics is complex, globally today, and not just 18th century Scottish.

Since i started watching the outlander tv series , i have admired how Scottish resisted against the aggression of the crone that time . The battle of culloden shows how Scottish clans were braves and fought by their hearts. Kinships and bloodlines always make the societies stronger and fight against their common enemy. If there were no clans culloden battle would never happen . I have visited Glasgow and Edinburgh, one day when walking around the buchanan street , i saw building named ( House of Fraser) its a clothing shop now . I got a glimpse of lallybroch the house of James Alexander Malcolm MacKenzie Fraser , I would like to visit inverness i see if its still there . Can anyone confirm to me if its there i mean lallybroch . Thanks 🙏

Get back to the jungle, monkey

What happened to the pro-British Clans? Did they evolve into today's Highland regiments?

Is that a real accent or a SNP one? Sorry meant as a poor joke!
