Muir Clan & Prince Charlie
There is not a lot of information on Clan Muir
In doing a little research on the MUIR Clan I found these Clan members that supported Prince Charles
Here is all Muir Clan Names that I could find using the book
No Quarter Given: The Muster Roll of Prince Charles Edward Stuart's Army, 1745-46 (Paperback)
This book gives a list of those members of Bonnie Prince Charlie’s Army that were known to be killed, captured, deported or escaped after his defeat.
It also provides a little history on each of the units that were raised in his support
I offer this list to all of us that share a tie to Clan Muir
