The 78th Highlanders Ross-shire Buffs were raised in 1793 by Frances Humbertson Mackenzie (1754 – 1815). In 1881 they were amalgamated with the 72nd Duke of Albany’s Own Highlanders to form the Seaforth Highlanders. The Duke of Albany’s Own had been raised in 1778 by Kenneth, last Earl of Seaforth as the 72nd Highlanders.
