Donald MacDonell, fourth of Scotus

d. 16 Apr 1746, Culloden Moor

Father to Ranald MacDonell, fifth of Scotus and grandfather to Aeneas MacDonell, sixth of Scotus. Said to have died as Culloden, although an alternate narrative has him and other wounded Jacobites captured and sold to Caribbean plantations, with Scotus later taken by Turkish pirates "and held in bondage ever afterwards." His son Ranald was on the government side (Loudoun's) in the Rising. See MacDonald and MacDonald, The Clan Donald, vol. 3, pp. 323-24.
