Culloden Headstone at Portnacroich

[Canadian Livingstone]

As Keith Livingstone pointed in April of 2005, he visited in 2002 a old churchyard near Portnacroich, which I assume in the Appin area and he described to the interest of some at the time the little known fact that there is according to Keith "a delapidated stone church with a Culloden headstone set into the wall...it said under the list of the deceased: Livingstones or MacLeas 4. The date of the stone could not be determined, but I would think it likely 19th possibly 18th century after the name change. Why it ended up near Portnacroich and not on Culloden Battlefield where it should rightfully be might be an interesting story for one of our skilled researchers to take a crack at. Our fellow clansman Keith from Australia,filmed the church site it but recorded it on video only at the time. Hope to hear more from Keith on this one. regards Donald

Hi All, Sorry that should have read "Portnacroish" which according to Keith Livingstone of Australia is a little north of the remains of an old church in which a marble stone about 3feet high by 2feet wide with a list all the Appin REgiment casualties is located. I will have more details on this old church and the old marble monument as information comes in. regards, Donald (Livingstone) Clink
