Three members of the Halkett family fought with Braddock at the Battle on the Monongahela. Two were never to return. Colonel Sir Peter Halkett was attempting to rally his men when he was struck down. As Sir Peter fell to the ground his son Lieutenant James Halkett, also of the 44th Regiment of Foot, rushed to his fathers side. He too was shot, and just as they had fought together, father and son died together.
