Seven Men of Knoydart

The Seven Men of Knoydart was the name given to a group of squatters who tried to appropriate land at Knoydart in 1948〔Miers, R. (2006) ''Scotland's Highlands and Islands'' (page 115 ) New Holland Publishers. ISBN 1860113400 Retrieved MArch 2015〕 by the press at the time, evoking the memory of the seven Knoydart Jacobites who accompanied the Young Pretender on his voyage to Scotland in 1745.〔Prebble, J. (2012) ''John Prebble's Scotland'' (page 77-78 ) Pan Macmillan. ISBN 1447233794 Retrieved March 2015〕 Comprising seven ex-servicemen, their claim was to be the last land raid in Scotland.〔Skinner, S.J. (1999) ''Maverick Guide to Scotland'' (page 506 ) Pelican Publishing. ISBN 1455608661 Retrieved March 2015〕
== History ==
At the end of the 18th-century, a population of around 1,000 eked out a living on the Knoydart peninsula, through a mixture of crofting and fishing.〔Humphreys, R. & Reid, D. (2013) ''The Rough Guide to Scottish Highlands & Islands'' (6th Ed.) (page 236 ) Rough Guides UK. ISBN 1409351645 Retrieved March 2015〕 Depopulation of the area began in August 1853, when the recently widowed Josephine MacDonnell forced the eviction of some 330 people to Canada, on board the ''Sillery'', to make way for sheep.〔Sandison, B. (2012) ''Sandison's Scotland'' (page 194-195 ) Black & White Publishing ISBN 1845025709 Retrieved March 2015〕 Depopulation of the area continued with a series of evictions as successive landowners ran the property as a hunting and shooting estate.〔
