I am Malcolm MacWilliam.... You can read about me in the MacWilliam Chronicles, a three volume set of tales beginning in 1746 at Culloden and stretching into 1776. So, I can be Jacobite, but then I am Sjt. of the 77th Grenadiers (Lord Montgomerie's finest) building Forbes Road, partaking in Grant's Defeat, etc...., then Sjt. of the 42nd Grenadiers during Colonial War of Rebellion. I fight for the "king" with my brother Davey Gunn and my cousin Seamus MacWilliam (whose mother was Irish and his father was my Uncle Quasi)... We are protected at times by our elusive Uncle Angus and his army of sheep (led my Mother Ewe who Uncle Angus calls..."Ewe, Mother Ewe"!!). The Chronicles are a wealth of information, fun, battles, love, historical fiction at its best. By the way, the day of our patron saint, Andrew, comes closer. Our regiment will be celebrating at Old Bedford Village this weekend, with 38 persons in attendance. May Saint Andrew bless you all on his feast day. Slante' ... Malcolm Angus MacWilliam, Sjt.

Hi I am James Fraser Singer from Aberdeen Scotland a Highlander with a cause who along with my friend Jacobite will fight against the Hanoverian/ British establishment till Scotland is free. We are involved in a few groups which promote the Scottish cause including Na Fri Dileas(THE Loyal Men), The Wallace Society, The Royal Ecossais. We commemorate the fallen/murdered at most of the battle sites etc in Scotland and make sure the fight continues under these words of the Declaration of Arbroath 1320
For so long as there are 100 of us alive, we will never consent to subject ourselves to the dominion of the English. For it is not for glory ,nor riches neither is it for honour, but it is liberty alone that we fight and contend for, which no honest man will lose but with his life.

My name is Lee, I'm 36 (37 this May 9th Cry

).
The only 'groups' I'm in are the Clan Davidson Association, the 1745 Association & the Western Front Association.
My overwhelming passion is the British Army in the Great War, especially the 1/4th Cameron Highlanders and all Victoria Cross winners.
My interest in the '45 stems from a visit I paid to Culloden a couple of years ago, after which I joined the CDA & the 1745 Assoc.

Alex here. At the moment I'm doing the Duke of Perth, and also a staff officer for the Prince. I also am working
with a friend on creating a Highland Rev War unit. It's
all good if it's Scottish.

As your friendly neighbourhood webmaster, I'm wondering...would there be any interest in a kind of bio page/rogue's gallery, where users could enter and upload a brief bio/photo/character summary?

Or would it just end up being as dusty, little-used, and unloved as the free regiment pages have been? Roll Eyes

Sounds like a good idea. Why don't you try it and see, when you get the time.

Being my first post to this board, this seems the ideal thread to start on. My name is Daniel Foster and I've been in the living history hobby for several years now. About a year ago I decided to go back from Rev War to start researching Scots in Ga after the founding of the colony in the 1730's and I'm developing my current personna around a Scots trader/hunter moving into the interior to trade with my redskinned brothers. Since I've always been interested in the Jacobite Rebellion, and developing my new personna in the same time period, I've also chosen to extend my research to include such.

My kit at this time includes;
Non-descript tartan great and wee kilts
Govt. sett tartan for same
Bonnet
1717 French Army musket/bayonet
Baskethilted back-sword and dirk
Buckle shoes w/longer tongues
Plain woolen stockings
Haversacks (both early French style and regular)
Various other accoutrements that I've picked up along the way during my time doing living history.

If anyone has any tips, suggestions or critiques, they're always welcome. I see from my time looking through the archives that there are some knowledgable people here. Be prepared to have your brains picked! Grin

Hello Daniel,
I'm sure with your interest in the 1745 Rising and kit you already possess, if you wished to join one of our clan regiments in order to participate in our events (the next one is Sept.4/5 in Bedford PA) we could find a home for you. Let us know and I'm sure hospitality will be extended by one of the many groups represented here.

Britt Brinson Guest

Daniel,

If you are still in Georgia & would like to do Scots in either Georgia or Scotland from 1736 to 1746, please access our website at www.geocities.com/clanamcu/homepage.html. We portray the Highland Independent Company of Darien. When we travel north we support the Army of King James. Check us out & let me know if you are interested.

Britt

Thank you for the invite, Britt. I looked the site over and I'm definitely interested! As a matter of fact, I'm working on making arrangements to get to the next couple of events at King George. Especially the one in November. I'll be in touch soon.
