ROSE, William 1
User ID: E74. General Notes: "...for, when about the year 1635, several gentlemen of the name of Gordon and others were outlawed and intercommuned, (on account of their illegal resentment of the burning the Viscount of Aboyne and others, in the tower of Frendraught, in 1630) and some of them were apprehended, of whom ten were hanged at Edinburgh, William Rose, son to John Rose of Bellivat, was reserved to a farther trial, being accounted a chief leader among the outlaws. (MS. Gordon of Sallagh.) But what was the after fate of this William I find not." |
