Forensics Team work on Battle of Culloden

[Kilted KT]

This is one of the best posts ever written on Xmarks, INMHO.

I would just add a mention of one of the unsung heroes of the '45, besides Lord George Murray -- Lord Duncan Forbes of Culloden -- Forbes, although a Government man, showed nothing but the best of Highland hospitality to the Bonnie Prince when he stayed at Culloden House, and then unsuccessfully argued against the actions of the Butcher against the rebels after the rebellion was over. Like many Scots, Forbes was simply caught in the middle.

Lest we forget.

I agree....excellent postings here!

Todd, on rereading I agree. Loyalist was just the word that crossed my mind at the moment. I should have used Monarchy or Hanoverian nobility.
