Tour Scotland Autumn travel video of a road trip drive, with Scottish bagpipes and dums music, East on the old military road, built by General Wade, on ancestry visit to Amulree, Scottish Gaelic Ath Maol Ruibhe, in Highland Perthshire. Field Marshal George Wade, born 1673, died 14 March 1748, was a British Army officer who served in the Nine Years' War, War of the Spanish Succession, the Jacobite rising of 1715 and the War of the Quadruple Alliance before leading the construction of barracks, bridges and proper roads in Scotland. Scots from Amulree emigrated in large numbers, mostly to North Easthope, Canada, in the early 19th Century.
