- was killed fighting for the cause of Bonnie Prince Charlie, his children fled to France and Danmark.
Killed at the Battle of Culloden.
He was the Private Secretary to the John Hay, 4th Marquess of Tweeddale, who was the Chief Secretary of state for Scotland for Bonny Prince Charlie from 1742-1746, served as the Quartermaster at the Battle of Culloden and went to Rome with the Prince afterwards.
There is some confusion here. Firstly, was William Brown part of the ‘Broun’ family who were noblemen in Scotland as some websites claim, and second which Marquess of Tweeddale supported the Jacobites? because John Hay the 4th Marquess of Tweedale was in London at this time and didn’t support the Jacobites… But perhaps that’s because it was John Hay of Restalrig, the younger brother of Thomas Hay (the grandfather of the 5th Marquess of Tweeddale) who fought with the Prince and was his quartermaster...
