Indian Wars

See: Macraes in the Seaforth Regiments

During the closing decades of the eighteenth century, when the Highland regiments were raised, the Macraes entered loyally and readily into the military service of their country.  Many of them served also as officers, and frequently with distinction, in other Highland regiments, and during the Indian wars of that period, and the great European wars which followed the French Revolution, the Macraes, like so many of the other Highland Clans, added their full share of luster to the honor of British Arms.
