Macleod of Raasay.
Shelly, the Macleods of Raasay were out in the '45, the Skye/Harris Macleods were not and raised the Skye Militia (with Macdonald of Sleat) to support the Government. When the Redcoats arrived to sack Raasay, post Culloden,there was little worth taking as their Skye neighbours had beaten them to it! The Lewis Macleods (Raasay's relations) were also quiet during the Rebellion as they were tenants of Mackenzie of Seaforth, who also was not out!
