Hi there,
I am deeply impresed by your knowledge gents, it's one of the main reasons I love this forum.
In checking through my reference books on another subject I found this. It is a copy of a button from Ripley & Darmanin's book on Rifle Volunteers Buttons (1859-1908). It is Button nos. 266 (Page 31). Which is listed as 5th Corps, Ross-shire Rifle Volunteers. As you can see from the picture it has the motto "CABAR FEIDCH". (N.B. Button 265 which is the Ross-shire Rifle Volunteers has the Stags head with the more normal "CUIDICH 'N RHI" above it).
I am not sure whether this helps or confuses matters even more. But thought I would post it in case it helps jog anybodys memory.
Thanks again for all your efforts.
Regards
Ian
