I have just checked with the higher authority ,my wife, who tells me quite correctly that there were also "7 men of Glen Moriston" as well. I did not know that, even after living within a few miles of the place for nearly 70 years! I do apologise to you all.
No I mean the Seven men of Glenmoriston, post Culloden.
