How to enter
We are keen to trace some young people (under 18 years old) whose ancestors fought at the Battle of Culloden. Entrants should produce a family tree showing their family’s involvement in the Battle – either on the Government or Jacobite side – or both. This can be hand written, presented in say a word document or provided as a print out from one of the genealogy website programmes or templates.
Help to get you started…
Take a look at the BBC Family History website at www.bbc.co.uk/history/familyhistory or for more focussed Scottish information try www.bbc.co.uk/scotland/history/scottishroots/
