    Notes:

    There is a William Robertson, a weaver who was expelled from Scotland and transported from
    Liverpool to the Leeward Islands aboard the Veteran on May 5, 1747. This William was a Jacobite in
    Lord Lewis Gordon's regiment during the battle of Culloden. He is listed as being from Spinei,
    Morayshire, Scotland. William was liberated by a French privateer and landed on Martinique June
    1747. This is probably our William Robertson.
