He died. on the mnd of January, 1898, while this volume was passing through the press, and on his death-bed he care- fully re-read the unprinted MSS., linowhgsthat he would not live long enough to revise his work in proof form. Although after his death every care was taken to prevent mistakes and misprints in the latter portion of the book it is possible that imperfections have crept in, but I know that in the peculiar circumstances these will be excused. It was, I know, the Author's intention, had he lived to write this pieface, to make hearty acknowledgment to the memory of the late Mr Alexander Ross, Alness, whose collection of genealogical matter relating to the Munros greatly helped and expedited the compilation of this work. It was also his intention to acknowledge the aid derived from a similar collection made by the late General Stedart AIlan. I, therefore, feel it my duty to here make these acknowledgments, although inadequately. It will be found that besides the history of the House of Eowlis and the Genealogies of the principal Munro families, there are added accounts of the Lexington (American) and the New England (American) Munros. For much of the information contained in these latter genealogies my father was deeply indebted to Mr Jarnes Phinny Munro, Lexing- ton, himself a distinguished member of the family, 1 viii HISTORY OF THE MUNROS. believe it was my father's intention to have further traced and enlarged upon these American branches of the family, but his long illness and ultimate death prevented his CONTENTS. doing so. There are many other kind friends to whom, on behalf of my father, I must tender acknowledgments for the assistance they rendered in giving him the use of genea- iii logical information, and, in some cases, valuable family vii papers. ix xi Completing the volume will be found, in unison with the rest of the series, a full and carefully prepared Index, THE MUNROS OF FOWLIS- compiled by myselt ORIGINOF TIIE FAMILY , I.

  • A Soldier Fights for Three Separate but Sometimes Associated Reasons: for Duty, for Payment and for Cause
    View metadata, citation and similar papers at core.ac.uk brought to you by CORE provided by Stirling Online Research Repository The press and military conflict in early modern Scotland by Alastair J. Mann A soldier fights for three separate but sometimes associated reasons: for duty, for payment and for cause. Nathianiel Hawthorne once said of valour, however, that ‘he is only brave who has affections to fight for’. Those soldiers who are prepared most readily to risk their lives are those driven by political and religious passions. From the advent of printing to the present day the printed word has provided governments and generals with a means to galvanise support and to delineate both the emotional and rational reasons for participation in conflict. Like steel and gunpowder, the press was generally available to all military propagandists in early modern Europe, and so a press war was characteristic of outbreaks of civil war and inter-national war, and thus it was for those conflicts involving the Scottish soldier. Did Scotland’s early modern soldiers carry print into battle? Paul Huhnerfeld, the biographer of the German philosopher and Nazi Martin Heidegger, provides the curious revelation that German soldiers who died at the Russian front in the Second World War were to be found with copies of Heidegger’s popular philosophical works, with all their nihilism and anti-Semitism, in their knapsacks.1 The evidence for such proximity between print and combat is inconclusive for early modern Scotland, at least in any large scale. Officers and military chaplains certainly obtained religious pamphlets during the covenanting period from 1638 to 1651.

  • History of the Mackenzies Alexander Mackenzie
    History Of The Mackenzies Alexander Mackenzie THE HISTORY OF THE MACKENZIES. ORIGIN. THE CLAN MACKENZIE at one time formed one of the most powerful families in the Highlands. It is still one of the most numerous and influential, and justly claims a very ancient descent. But there has always been a difference of opinion regarding its original progenitor. It has long been maintained and generally accepted that the Mackenzies are descended from an Irishman named Colin or Cailean Fitzgerald, who is alleged but not proved to have been descended from a certain Otho, who accompanied William the Conqueror to England, fought with that warrior at the battle of Hastings, and was by him created Baron and Castellan of Windsor for his services on that occasion. THE REPUTED FITZGERALD DESCENT. According to the supporters of the Fitzgerald-Irish origin of the clan, Otho had a son Fitz-Otho, who is on record as his father's successor as Castellan of Windsor in 1078. Fitz-Otho is said to have had three sons. Gerald, the eldest, under the name of Fitz- Walter, is said to have married, in 1112, Nesta, daughter of a Prince of South Wales, by whom he also had three sons. Fitz-Walter's eldest son, Maurice, succeeded his father, and accompanied Richard Strongbow to Ireland in 1170. He was afterwards created Baron of Wicklow and Naas Offelim of the territory of the Macleans for distinguished services rendered in the subjugation of that country, by Henry II., who on his return to England in 1172 left Maurice in the joint Government.

It describes how we can manage the high quality built and natural environment and how places can adapt to provide homes, jobs and services that we need. This Main Issues Report marks the first stage in reviewing the HwLDP. Recently, the Council has made good progress in preparing Area Local Development Plans that guide where development can happen. This means that this new HwLDP can become a policy only Plan to guide how development should happen. It sets out the main issues and options for updating the HwLDP to take account of new issues and advice from Scottish Government. We also want this new Plan to reflect the priorities and aspirations of communities, businesses and key agencies. For the first time it has been based on the outcomes identified in the Community Planning Partnership's Single Outcome Agreement. In doing so, we hope that it represents a shared view of how we can work together to address the priorities for communities across Highland. This is the best stage in the process to influence the new Plan and shape planning policy. I encourage anyone with an interest in the future of the Highlands to have their say on this document." Audrey Sinclair Chair of the Planning, Development and Infrastructure Committee The Highland Council HwLDP2 MIR Purpose and Scope of this Document Purpose and Scope of this Document The Council have a duty to provide up to date Local Development Plans (LDPs) for the whole of the Highland Council area(1).

This was primarily due to its strategic importance as the northern gateway into the Hebrides to the west, and Caithness and Sutherland to the north. The power derived from the earldom’s strategic situation was enhanced by the status of its earls. From 1215 to 1372 the earldom was ruled by an uninterrupted MacTaggart comital dynasty which was able to capitalise on this longevity to establish itself as an indispensable authority in Scotland north of the Forth.

  • An Insight Into Scottish Field Surgeons, Physicians, and Medical Provision During the Thirty Years’ War, 1618-1648
    ‘Medic!’ An Insight into Scottish Field Surgeons, Physicians, and Medical Provision during the Thirty Years’ War, 1618-1648 Steve Murdoch THE THIRTY YEARS’ WAR (1618-48) is a subject with a venerable and expansive history. In a brief study such as this, focused on only one small aspect of the war – medical provision – there is no space to rehearse the historiography of it.1 That said, there were related conflicts that certainly had a bearing on the provision of medical care to Scottish regiments in the Thirty Years’ War, even those which started decades before 1618. The Dutch, who had been in revolt against their Spanish Habsburg overlords since 1568, had been reinforced by the formation of the Scots Brigade, first established in 1572.2 When Frederick V of the Palatinate and his wife Elizabeth Stuart struggled to retain their possessions in the Holy Roman Empire in 1620, King James deployed a Scottish regiment drawn from this brigade directly into Bohemia with the intention of aiding his daughter and her family.3 It formed the first wave of some 50,000 Scots who would participate in the Thirty Years’ War in the anti-Habsburg armies alone.4 Recent scholarship confirms the scale of the intended levies, the placement of regiments, and the command structures deployed to control them in particular armies at given times.5 We also now see investigations into the role and correspondence of common soldiers and women in a welcome move away from the simple aggrandisement of the 1 Some important works include: Parker 1997; Wolke, Larsson, and Vilstrand 2006; Wilson 2009.
