The Flora McDonald was a ship that was involved in the transportation of Scottish Highlanders, particularly during the 18th century. It is most famously associated with the Jacobite cause and the escape of Bonnie Prince Charlie after the Jacobite defeat at the Battle of Culloden in 1746. Flora MacDonald, a Scottish heroine, played a key role in helping the prince evade capture by disguising him as her maid and facilitating his journey to safety. The ship itself carried various passengers, including those involved in the Jacobite movement and those fleeing the aftermath of the rebellion.
