research and discovered that an ancestor was in one of the primary Jacobite clans and participated in one of the uprisings pre-Culloden, and was one of the aggressor Highlanders who was shipped to the US. He’s one of the dead ends on our family tree. I found a few Clan groups online, I put in a request for some family information & am waiting to hear a response. He had a very common name so my expectations are low, but keeping my fingers crossed for a breakthrough.
None of this would have ever been known to me without watching Outlander.
