 Having obtained a copy of 'The Jacobite Grenadier', Gavin Wood ,2013, I note that the author states in his foreword, p.vi, ' What follows is a novel of total fiction and all the characters whose actions I chronicle are purely imaginary'. Hardly a sound base for the family historian.  JonB65.

Dear Moragus,
Thank you for your last posting and interesting corroborative detail re. capture of Lt/Dr. James Brand, 1722-1795.
There has been a great deal of confusion here which I have tried to resolve in the light of my own research, please see attachment. Best Wishes, JonB65.

Thank you, Rory. I will now peruse the Public Member Trees on Ancestry.Co looking particularly for Ann Brand, [is that the title of her tree? ] and then get back to you.   I did not realise there were so many which  might be relevant, so this may take a littlle while. Best Wishes, John B.

Dear RoryT,
                       Your posting has recently been brought to my notice by another Brand family member. I note that you give 'Major James Edward Brand' as your ancestor. Could you give me the connection? Do you have a tree that I could look at or are you on Ancestry. Co.?  Could you give me your sources?  There appears  to be some confusion with the data which I hold, and which I would like to resolve.
                         Please get in touch with a view to exchange of info. Best Wishes, John Brand.
