Roll of Honor

---

After spending several hours frustrating searching, to find certain Scottish Resources, in particular, in depth information and sources about the Highland Clearances and the Jacobite Rebellions, after finding some on Wikitree, and the rest spread all over the WWW, much of it incomplete. So, I thought it would be great, if Wikitree had links to all this information, in one place and easily accessed. I also discovered one day, that they were much misunderstood, and still mystifying to many people. So here it is...
