Jacobite prisoners from 1745

[old rowley]

Hi Kate, and welcome to Rootschat and the Scotland board.
I am afraid that Roderick does not appear on the list that I have but a search via Google Books comes up with a Roderick Fraser b.1719, Jacobite. mentioned in "America Original Scots Colonists 1612-1783". Could this be "your" Roderick I wonder. Unfortuately one can not view the contents to this book via Google Books but you may be able to do an internet search to see if it is still posible to view it else where/or obtain it.  Sorry I can not help much on this.

Hi

Thank you for looking - that reference does indeed seem to be "my" Roderick. He was 28 when he was transported in 1747 and had served in Cromarty's regiment as far as I know. I will try and find out what happened to him after 1747.

Thanks again

Kate

Hi Buzancy18

Do you have any other details on the Ronald Mcdonald (executed) ie where he was from or any other snippet.

Yours Aye

I have a list of Rebels but cannot find them anywhere.
If they escaped did they become free men.

BruceL,
Afraid I have nothing further. All these men were captured at Carlisle.

thanks  for the offer.  an ancestor in our 'tree' was with Prince Charlie at the '45' although i know little about him excpet that that he left his 3 year old daughter in Canonbie as he marched thru along the  Esk to Carlisle.  Do you have any Robert Grants from Stathspey on your list? 

And, can you give me any suggestions where to look for more opportunities to 'find' this Robert Grant in records?

Thanks very much.

Old Rowley,
Thank you for posting the list of the prisoners from 1745.  I have recently located the grave of my 5x grandfather, Daniel McIvor, in Appomattox County, Virginia.  He died at the age of 83 in 1812.  He would have been about 16 at the time of the '45.  I would really be grateful to know if the M'Ivor you have is named Daniel. 

Incidentally, his son James, my 4X great was buried beside him.  He died in 1815.

I found your information by doing a google search and I am most thankful that you  posted it.

         Regards,
               Wils Son

Hi Wils Son and welcome to rootschat and the Scotland board. I am afraid that you are out of luck as the McIvor that is on my list is down as a Evander McIvor who died at Tilbury Fort in Essex England. Sorry that I can not help you on this one.
