A brief one minute 360° video I took at the ruined old church of St Dubhthach in Glen Shiel a few months back. This is the ancestral burial place of Clan MacRae. Following the Battle of Glenshiel in 1719 it was fired on by British Royal Navy ships. Information has got out that the church was giving shelter to wounded Jacobites. An evocative place indeed and even on an overcast day the view is o...

    My great (x6) Grandfather John Stewart of Aberfeldy known as Colonel John Stewart was also a piper at Culloden. Born in 1693 he died in 1804 aged 111! Known to have 8 wives in his life time and several children, he was also present at the Battle of Shirrifmuir and Prestonpans. Extracts from the Universal Magazine, vol 10, Provincial occurrences 1808 page 379...what a guy!

    Three respectfully submitted suggestions. 1.) Use a wind sock on the microphone if at all possible. 2.) Speak louder when you are around other sounds like rushing water in a body of water. 3.) Speak more distinctly and don't rush your speech when around other noises. Liked the video otherwise. Love history.

      I came across this by accident and I too wondered which Donald Cameron this was. My 6th great grandfather was Laird Lochiel Donald 19th Chief CAMERON. He was wounded at Culloden and his soldiers spirited him off the battlefield. I haven't seen a mention that Charles Stewart stayed at his house after the battle. There were quite a few Camerons back then named Donald. Anyway, you and I are likely distant cousins. There is a wonderful film called "Culloden" made by Peter Watkins in 1964. Very low budget but brilliant. Our clan chief Donald Cameron is portrayed by an actor who does a believable job. You can watch it for free on youtube. I live in Houston Texas by the way.

He emigrated, and settled in Quebec. He wouldn't even take money for his house being burnt during the siege of 1775-1776. He said, I take nothing from the house of Hanover. I suspect he was Donald Cameron, surgeon mate of the 78th regiment, then in 1776, he was with the Royal Emigrants.
