Oh Jim, I was excited to be able to get this. I am generally not interested in any Scottish dirk past 1800 due to the transformation of the hilt.
Rifle battalion - not thought of that. The hard part is the first name - James or John?
Still researching this. Thanks for your well informed input! I have the first and last references, but not the 2 middle ones.
BTW - I know I have Irish blood, but Scottish - maybe-ish (if so, perhaps from the McKinnon clan who fought alongside the McDonalds with Bonnie prince Charlie at Culloden!).
