	Jacobites - LoveToKnow 1911 (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-10)
		The history of the Jacobites, culminating in the risings of 1715 and 1745, is part of the general history of England, and especially of Scotland, in which country they were comparatively more numerous and more active, while there was also a large number of Jacobites in Ireland.
		Owing to a variety of causes Jacobitism began to lose ground after the accession of George I. and the suppression of the revolt of 1715; and the total failure of the rising of 1745 may be said to mark its end as a serious political force.
		Jacobite traditions also lingered among the great families of the Scottish Highlands; the last person to suffer death as a Jacobite was Archibald Cameron, a son of Cameron of Lochiel, who was executed in 1 753.

		Jacobitism was (and, to a very limited extent, is) the political movement dedicated to the restoration of the Stuart kings to the thrones of England and Scotland (including after 1707,when the de facto government deemed those thrones to have been combined into the throne of Great Britain).
		Jacobitism was a response to the deposition of James II and VII in 1688 when he was replaced by his daughter Mary II jointly with her husband and first cousin William of Orange.
		A year later the Jacobites were forced to agree to a truce while the Clan chieftains sent requests to the exiled James VII and II for permission to submit to William, and in January 1692 the Jacobite Clans formally surrendered to the government.

	A Jacobite narrative of the war in Ireland (A light to the blind; Pluncket memoirs)
		The paucity of contemporary Jacobite writings in connection with the affairs of Ireland is assignable to the results which followed the ill-success of the Irish movements for James II., and to the calamities in which favourers of the house of Stuart were involved through the operation of penal laws.
		Statements and views expressed among the Jacobites on the various events and matters in which they were concerned, are detailed and discussed in the Narrative.
		In this list are given the names of the Irish Jacobite officers made prisoners on the surrender to Ginkel of the garrison at Ballymore, Meath, on the 8th of June, 1691, together with the names of the regiments to which they belonged.

		When King James III and VIII first arrived in Rome, May 26, 1717, he was the guest of Cardinal Filippo Antonio Gualterio (also spelt, Gualtieri); James remained as a guest in the Gualterio palace until he withdrew to Urbino, July 3, 1717.

		The first division, led by Lord George Murray would attack the camp from the rear and the left flank, while the second division, Led by the Duke of Perth and the Prince would carry out an attack on the front of the camp.
		Officers were sent out to assemble the wandering Jacobite soldiers for the attack, but many point-blank refused to return without food and sleep.
		Nevertheless, the Jacobites began their long and difficult march back to, taking the same route they had followed down.

	The Scottish Genealogy Society - Peers and Heirs
		Where the destination is to heirs male, a brother of the male holder of the Peerage without a son maybe termed the ''heir presumptive'' and he, of course, may be defeated by the birth of a son to the Peer.
		Where a Peerage may descend through females a daughter may be the heir or heiress presumptive but would cease to be the heir presumptive if a brother, although younger, is born as he would become the heir apparent - because in any generation males are preferred to females.
		For many Peerages while it is known the Peerage was created the Patent or Charter could not be found and the destination could not be known, and in such circumstances the destination has had to be presumed.

		The Jacobites were followers of the House of Stuart who, in 1715 and 1745, as well as a number of other occasions, attempted to regain the throne of Great Britain from the House of Hanover.
		Although the Jacobites of 1745 were able to penetrate as far south as Derby in England, they were ultimately defeated by the Hanoverians at the battle of Culloden, on the outskirts of Inverness.
		The Jacobite campaign of 1745 culminated in the disastrous defeat at Culloden in April, where a goodly portion of the Jacobites either died in a futile assault on the superior Hanoverian position or were among the wounded who were slaughtered on orders from the British Duke of Cumberland.

	The Clan Gregor in the last Jacobite Rising of 1745-46
		The Duke of Perth (in the Jacobite peerage), chief of the Drummond family, had at various times two companies of MacGregors in his regiment, although Blackwood’s Magazine gave it as six companies.
		The Jacobite left suffered losses from the three overlapping Hanoverian regiments - Ligonier's, Price's and Barrel's - which did not break when the Royals did and fired on the flank of the advancing Jacobites in their pursuit of the centre.
		Between February 17th and mid April, contingents of the Jacobite army ranged all round the Highlands, from Atholl to Sutherland and from Inverurie to Fort William.

	Address of Sir Keith Thomas PBA
		For a time Sir Theophilus became a Jacobite and joined his old master in exile, but when James II insisted that his supporters should be Catholics, he returned home, took the oath of Allegiance to William III and became MP for his local borough of Haslemere.
		In the early 1750s he supported a Jacobite newspaper, The True Briton, and, many years later, when a very old man, he was in conversation with Dr Johnson, who rather uncharacteristically remarked that `what we did at the Revolution [of 1688] was necessary'.
		It was here at Corpus, in this tiny, pious Jacobite college, that Oglethorpe imbibed the ideas which would animate his later career; and it was here that he made some of the friends with whose assistance he would found the colony of Georgia and become one of the most celebrated figures of his age.

		At times such as 1715–1722 when the Hanoverians appeared to be dismantling Anglican dominance and 1743–1745 when Whig dealings denied the Tories parliamentary victory they would coalesce and turn to the Jacobites, but they were reluctant when it came to serious action.
		The failure of the '15 convinced the Jacobites that to overthrow the Hanoverians they needed the support of a major European power, and in an age when the Hapsburg empire was collapsing and armies becoming professionalised this gave a lever to any country in dispute with Britain.
		Following the death of Henry in 1807, the Jacobite claims passed to those excluded by the Act of Settlement: initially to the House of Savoy (1807-1840), then to the Modenese branch of the House of Hapsburg-Lorraine (1840-1919), and finally to the House of Bavaria (1919-present).

		Fortunately for posterity the castle was not damaged in the troubled 17th and 18th centuries, although the lands around were severely damaged.

		The castle is a typical 16th century Z plan design with two towers, one square the other round or drum tower.

		Henry Benedict Cardinal Stuart (March 11 1725 – July 13 1807) was the fourth and final Jacobite publicly to claim the thrones of England, Scotland, and Ireland.
		In his youth Henry's father made him Duke of York (in the Jacobite peerage), and it was by this title that he was best known.
		Although the English government represented this as an act of charity, Henry and the Jacobites considered it to be a first installment on the money which was legally owed to him.

		However, all of the papers relating to his covert Jacobite operations were burnt, as a precaution against his estates being appropriated (again) by the Crown on the basis of the information contained in them.
		By the time of the first Jacobite uprising in 1715 there is some evidence to suggest that the Templar tradition had been continuous throughout.
		Further examination of the St. Clairs reveals that Templar iconography was in frequent use by the family throughout the centuries, and that they had an active interest in Masonry before and after the Schaw Statutes, known to have heralded the advent of Masonry as is known today.

		If Charles and Amy married in 1804 as some historians have speculated, then their descendants are the statutory Jacobite heirs and heiresses, as opposed to the descendants of George III.
