The mission of the 1745 Jacobite Society is to preserve Celtic(Scottish), and British(English) history and culture of the Jacobite era. We share such history through demonstrations at Highland Games, French and Indian War reenactments, American War of Independence reenactments, and educational functions. The society is focused towards the Jacobite and English history of 1745 to 1781.
