Friends & Foes: The intertwined lives of Lord Lovat and Duncan Forbes
Online talk organised by HIghland Archive Service. Bookings via Eventbrite
Description:
1747 saw the deaths of two prominent Highland figures - one on the scaffold and the other of 'heartbreak'. Simon Fraser, Lord Lovat, and Duncan Forbes of Culloden were key figures of 18th C events in Scotland - central to the story of Jacobite Risings and at the heart of many of the 18th centuries tumultuous events.
Join us to mark the 275th anniversary of their deaths and hear their interlinked stories.
