Text source

Duncan Robertson of Struan was an officer. There's a letter by him to Breadalbane in 1709, in which he complains about his mother refusing to see him and his going out to "Moscovia" (so before the 1715?). He arrived in Malmö in 1716, but got in bother and died in prison there around 1718.
