• Notes

  James came to America with the British Army in a Dundee regiment under the command of General Burgoyne to the Patriot Army during the Revolutionary War. James was taken prisoner in 1777 at Saratoga. He never returned to his homeland and in fact never rejoined the ranks of the British. He chose instead to join the Patriots and served nearly two years fighting for the American cause. [1]
