Heard about this search a while back, and been meaning to post this. How involved were Kintyre families at Culloden?

"Was your family there? Search on for Culloden legacy
The National Trust for Scotland is on the hunt for two youngsters to help officially open the new Culloden visitor centre on 16 April.

The Trust's Culloden project co-ordinator Alexander Bennett explained more about the search: "We're encouraging young people of school age to carry out some research into their ancestors and find out if they are related to people who actually fought at the battle of Culloden in 1746. "
