The following are Links to some of the websites which we hope you will find interesting or useful - assuming of course you thought the same about this website! Weve tried to pick out those which we thought were worth looking at from other re-enactment groups we work with, suppliers of costume and kit, and any sites which had good sources of information on the Jacobite Risings. Happy Browsing ! |
| Other Re-enactment Groups |
New France and Old England Our friends in the other large 18th century group in the UK (specialising in the French and Indian Wars), have their own website. Some excellent links to some of their own regimental sites and information pages on the period. |
The English Civil War Society This is the website of the society many of us are joint members of, and which we do the occasional event with. Nice articles and some good links. |
| Re-enactment Suppliers |
Armour Class This is a very nice site with some good shots of the excellent quality swords made by this company - about the best re-enactment swords going by our experience. |
Pedersoli A really nice on-line catalogue this one, from Italian historic replica firearm company Pedersoli. Some very nice products on here - their muskets are to be drooled over. |
Jas Townsend & Son The vast online (illustrated) catalogue of American re-enactment suppliers Townsends. this is a veritable supermarket of everything you need for 18th century re-enactment. |
Gedney Godwin - Sutler of Mount Misery Another American company, with another vast catalogue. Have a look at the Surgery kit ! |
| Historical Sites on the Jacobite Risings |
The Macbean Jacobite collection, University of Aberdeen This is part of the vast archive of pictures and illustrations that the University of Aberdeen holds in its archives. These are now being gradually put onto the Universitys website, and as they have relevant artefacts and weapons in their museum, it is to be hoped they will also put pictures of these on too. An invaluable resource. |
Jacobite Dress An interesting article by Andy Robertson (of Atholls in Lace Wars) which is an excellent introduction to Highland costume of the mid-eighteenth century, with some nice illustrations. |
