One of my ancestors is Flora MacDonald, she is famous for her part in helping Bonnie Prince Charlie escape from Scotland after defeat at the battle of Culloden, 1746.
I am a descendent of the MacDonald clan in Scotland, who have our own tartan and distil our own whisky (MacDonalds of Glencoe). The Clan Crest ‘Per Mare Per Terras’ translates as ‘By Sea and By Land’.
