"Bonnie Jean Cameron" is a Scottish song. Jean Cameron of Glendessary (c. 1698 – 1772) was a member of the Scottish gentry and a Jacobite. She may have been briefly involved in the Jacobite rising of 1745, during which the Stuart heir Charles Edward attempted to reclaim the British throne for his father. As "Jenny Cameron", she became well-known after a number of sensationalized accounts of her life and deeds during the rising were published. The majority were almost entirely fictional and some were intended as anti-Stuart propaganda. Considering that Jean Cameron was rather older than Charlie's mother at the time of the uprising, one doubts any romantic connection. It appears in the Roud Folk Song Index as #13082. It was printed in Ford's Vagabond Songs and Ballads of Scotland (1904).
