Ian Murray (Young Ian)—Jamie Fraser’s youngest nephew, Ian’s destiny seems entwined with his beloved uncle’s. Linked in danger on the occasion of Ian’s birth, when the two narrowly escaped discovery and slaughter by the English army, Ian has been the closest thing to a son that Jamie has ever had. Running away from home to join Jamie in Edinburgh, Ian discovered a mysterious sailor making inquiries, and ended up setting fire to Jamie’s print shop, narrowly escaping death himself. Returned to Lallybroch, he later accompanied Jamie to the seals’ isle off Coigach, and was kidnapped by pirates while endeavoring to retrieve the hoard of jewels concealed on the island. Taken captive to the West Indies, he fell into the hands of Geillis Duncan (aka Mrs. Abernathy, the witch of Rose Hall), and is nearly killed as a blood sacrifice, being rescued by Jamie and Claire from the cave of Abandawe. Arriving in North Carolina, he accompanies Jamie and Claire to River Run, and helps to establish the homestead on Fraser’s Ridge. Helping to rescue Roger MacKenzie (Wakefield) from the Iroquois, he volunteered to take Roger’s place, and allowed himself to be adopted by the Indians, marrying a Mohawk girl. [Voyager, Drums]
