While perusing old Scottish document transcriptions from "
The Binns Papers," containing sasines, indentures, letters and other documents primarily relating to the Dalyell family, the following notation in the
Papers jumped out at me:
"NOTES from the CORRESPONDENCE of Captain JAMES DALYELL
b. 1730, killed at Fort Detroit 31 July 1763."
Captain Dalyell was killed in the
Battle of Bloody Run during
Pontiac's Rebellion at Detroit.
