Melfort," which includes short records of other families with whom
they have intermarried, some information relating to the families of
In doing this we shall be enabled to correct some errors of name and date that
have crept in, which relate to members of the different families mentioned, and also to

difficult, and were it not for the bards or seneschals, who recited from
father to son the deeds of those days, and also committed them to
writing, we should be ignorant of much that is interesting and valuable.
In " A Memorial History " we have given all we could gather from what we
consider the best authorities, but it would be hardly fair not to present
another view (as it were) of the history of the clan. It was divided, it
seems, into two branches — the MacArthurs of Strachur and the MacCaillen
Mors. The MacArthurs appear to have held the superiority until the reign of
James the First of Scotland, when they fell under his displeasure, and so could offer
no further resistance to the MacCaillen Mors, these last being now powerful, and
probably actuated by the designing policy commonly assigned to them, determined to
claim the superiority, and so became the historic clan of Argyll, which has in all times
been celebrated for its devotion and loyalty. Certain authorities mention that the clan
MacArthur were a sept that had branched off from the main stem at an early period.
It would seem, from MacArthurs were derived from Arthur
historic records, that the

In "A Memorial History" an error appears. It there states that " Duibhn

; it was not so, it was his son
who married her as his first wife, and had three sons by her, from whom are

The oldest name of the clan was "Clan O'Duibhn," also as " MacDuimhn,'
the " bh "
and " mh " being pronounced as "v"; we have likewise seen it spelt
" Duine " or " Dwin," but MacDuibhn is the oldest form of the name. The name
Campbell raises a controversy ; there is a tradition that they were called in Gaelic
" Caim-beul," curved mouth, and Campbell of Dunstaffnage confirms this. He says :
We have always thought that the name Caim-beul pointed to some peculiarity of
beauty or otherwise possessed by a chief of the clan in old times. J.
S. Kellie, in his
history, states "that some have derived the name Campbell from Caim-beul," but he
does not credit this. Still, there is no doubt, as an old chronicler tells us, "Such By
names," as he calls them, " have been used by many nations for distinction sake."
from an old chronicle that Gillespie (Archibald), on his marriage with his cousin Evah
MacDuibhn, adopted "Campbell" as his surname, and was known as "the first
Campbell and the second knight of Lochawe, or Lochow," as it was then called. We
now come to the name Cambel, sometimes found as Kambel. Skene tells us that the
name Cambel appears first in the Records a.d. 1264, "Gillespie Cambel, father of
Cailean Mor" (" Exchequer Rolls," Vol. I., p. 24). Campbell of Dunstaffnage says:

And see "Patent Roll, Ed. II., M. 35, Langley," for "Safe conduct granted to Sir Nigel
Cambel and John de Menteith coming to treat with Richard de Burgo, Earl of Ulster. Sir Nigel
Cambel was envoy from Robert Bruce for peace, August, 13 10."
We have gathered from various sources all we could find of the Historic Story of
the " Clann O'Duibhn" (Argyll), in support of the different view from that which
appears in "A Memorial History." The difference is not of vital importance in these
days, but was so, no doubt, in early times, and is certainly of interest in the history of
the Clan. " Cambel," in the public records, would seem to be simply a variation in the
spelling of the name " Campbell." The spelling of names was certainly not arbitrary
in early times, as we find so much difference in the form in which they are given. In
the present day, we have seen the name spelt Cambel, and we have ourselves been
addressed as " Camel." The origin of the name we must leave to be decided by those
more learned in such subjects than we profess to be we are satisfied to be known as ;
" Campbell."

In studying the different Pedigrees that have been brought to our notice, it cannot fail
to be observed how frequent was the tie of marriage which in those early days existed
between the different members of the Highland Clans, they would almost seem to
represent one large family. It is true they had their likes and their dislikes, which
they were not slow in showing should their natural impetuosity be aroused, yet a silver
thread of warm and true friendship held them together, existing, in some measure, even
to the present day. It would be no light undertaking to trace all these different
relationships and connections, which, like a spider's web, would be almost impossible
to unravel ; we can but draw attention to the fact of their existence.

the brother of Dougal, who resigned his lands in favour of his son Nigel, 1502 ;
Dougal and Duncan being the sons of John, grandsons of Archibald, descendants of
Neil, progenitor of the Melfort Campbells. In charter, of date 1566, we find these
names — Archibald and John — with a slight difference (it would seem to be a clerical
error, possibly in copying). Their names are evidently given to describe the descent
of those who are recorded as entitled to succeed to the lands in due course, should the
elder branch fail.
The second signature, of date 1572, runs thus: "Duncan MacCoul, MacAne,
Yic Neil," viz., son of Dougal, son of John, posterity of Neil. This Duncan is the.
son of Dugal, whose brother Nigel is described in the charter, of date 1618, both being
the sons of John, and of the posterity of Neil. In the charter of 1566 an Archibald
is mentioned ; that name was in the records ; John had many children, not all detailed
in the Pedigree.
These additional names are all that are required to complete the line, The
names described in the second signature, of date 1572, are also of interest.

of the then representatives of the Melfort family was given. The names of others of
the family, since deceased, are also now recorded on the Monumental Cross, and we
give here the names of the present representatives in this year, 1893.

N the publication, " Parochiates Scotiae," as also in the Charters (vide "A
Memorial History"), the Campbells of Melfort are also described as
Campbells of Kenmoir. Their dwelling-house, of which traces still
remain, was situated on that part of the land. Kenmoir is Gaelic for
Big Head ; it is a steep thickly- wooded height, standing back from the
shore of the loch. At its highest point it takes a rounded form, and is
almost perpendicular ; no longer wooded, but of bare rock ; this steep rocky
part was in early days called "The Home of the Raven," or " Creag an
Fhithich " (the rock of the raven). This height, which may almost be called a
headland, is at the extreme end of Loch Melfort, facing the west, and with a
view over the loch and out on to the sea beyond, so that no enemy approaching
in that direction could fail to be seen. The eastern side of Kenmoir is a sunny, grassy,
pleasant slope, on which stood the house ; it looked towards the road, which passes by
farm-land and over the moors to Lochawe. No doubt, in those days, a most favour-
able position. Thus they kept watch over sea and land. The Melforts, when called
upon by their Chief for service, had the right of bed and board for a certain number
of their " followers " on one of the farms passed on their way to Lochawe.
For the two following items of family history we are indebted to the kindness of
year 1795, and I myself performed the same duty to Melfort, as representative of the Dunstaff-
nages, on the 21st of August, 1823.
"Signed: NEIL CAMPBELL."
" I acted as chief mourner at the funeral of Colonel John Campbell of Melfort, on the 8th of
October, 1861.
" Signed : ANGUS CAMPBELL (Dunstaffnage)."
We here introduce a notice that was published at the time of the funeral of
Archibald Campbell of Melfort, 21st August, 1823, which refers to this ancient
compact :
"At the crowded funeral of the late respected and most estimable proprietor of Melfort,
there occurred one of those ancient and hereditary customs by which the friendships of Highland
families and the ties of kindred were in use to be confirmed and perpetuated. Although
followed to the grave by two sons and three brothers, the place of chief mourner was, with much
propriety of feeling, ceded to the nearest representative then in Argyllshire, of the family of
Dunstaffnage. It was an ancient compact, and has been a uniform practice in the families of the
Campbells of Melfort, Dunstaffnage, and Duntroon, that when the head of either family died, the
chief mourners should be the two other Lairds, one of whom supported the head to the grave,
while the other walked before the corse. The first progenitors of these families were of the family
of Argyll, who took this method of preserving the friendship and securing the support of their
posterity to one another."
;
Such is the origin ascribed to this interesting remnant of feudal manners by Col.
Stewart of Garth in his recent valuable publication.
In page 3 of " A Memorial History " will be found the same account of this
ancient compact.
The two sons mentioned as present at the funeral were the second and youngest
son. Frederick, afterwards in the army, and Patrick, who entered the royal navy.
The eldest son, John, was in the army in India, on the staff of his granduncle, Sir
Alexander Campbell. The brothers who attended were the only remaining brothers of
this large family — Sir Patrick Campbell, R.N., K.C.B. ;
Sir Colin Campbell, K.C.B.
and Major (afterwards General) Frederick Campbell, Royal Artillery.
When Colonel John Campbell of Melfort (then Major) was stationed at Halifax
with his regiment, the 38th, he took his place as chief mourner at the funeral of Sir
Donald Campbell, Captain of Dunstaffnage, who died at Prince Edward's Island, of
which he was then Governor, 1850.
Campbells turned the day, and the Murrays, being completely defeated, having for refuge fled into
the church of Mouiraid, the church was set fire to by the Drummonds, and all the Murrays who
were there perished.
" A Bodach nan briojais (the march, not the pibroch), which I have heard called Melfort's
March, as well as Breadalbane's March, is said to have been composed by Melfort's piper on the
occasion, and played by him round the church while the Murrays were burning inside."
PASS OF MELFORT.
On page 5 of " A Memorial History," some description is given of the Melfort Pass
and the River " Oude," or rather " Uidhe." The Pass of Melfort is a modern name
given to this deep ravine. In the olden time it was described and known by its
Gaelic designation as Eas-More. Eas, a ravine or deep gully through which ran a
stream or waterfall; More, big, large, deep. The spelling of "Oude" is incorrect.
The Gaelic form of the word is Uidhe, it describes water which, as a river or stream,
issues from a loch. It is pronounced Oud. Uisge is the Gaelic for water.

possible that the eight salmon alluded to in the arms of Inverawe may also represent
a tribute paid to their feudal lord, and such is possibly the case in the arms of others.
In Ireland the civic arms of the town of Clonmel, Co. Tipperary, bear the
salmon and as a salmon river, the Suir, runs through the town, we inferred that
naiant,
the same custom of using the salmon as a symbol of supremacy over the fishing of the
river may have existed there, but we have hardly established that it was so, for on
consulting W. Clark, Esq., well known at Clonmel as versed in antiquarian lore, who has
most kindly allowed us to make use of all the information he was able to offer, he tells
us that the old records he has searched have failed to throw any light on the subject.
The tablets in front of the Main Guard of Clonmel bear the arms of Clonmel and of the
Ormonde (or Butler) family respectively, but he found no proof that the fish quarterings
on the former tablet had any reference to the right of fishing in the Suir, it may simply
indicate that the river was one famous for its fisheries. Mr. Clark adds :
" I upon the Dissolution of Abbeys, etc., in the sixteenth century, the possessions
find that
of the Franciscans in Clonmel were leased, at a small sum, one-half to the Ormondes and the
other to the Municipality of Clonmel. Amongst those possessions I find enumerated '
A mill,
weir, and fishing pool in Clonmel.' I have not been able to discover when or why the arms of our
Municipality were granted."
We think it possible, although not recorded, that the fish in the civic arms may
have been a symbol of the supremacy of the Municipality over the fisheries, a usage
carried on and admitted, and therefore considered unnecessary to record.
"That King John granted, by charter, to the burgesses of Yarmouth, the exclusive right to
catch herrings, and on their seal they placed a fishing-boat and a shoal of herring beneath.
Three of these fish may be seen, to the present day, in the arms of the town."
That fish, as a device on a seal, had some connection with a right of catching or of
selling fish is shown by a curious entry taken from the " Calendar of State Documents
relating to Scotland," a.d., 1304, July the 7th (Edward I.) :
" Indenture between William de Burgh, clerk, and Randolph de Holm, burgess of Berwick,
attesting that the former has received from Randolf entre le terz jour de Feverer et le nofesine
jour de Jeun, in the King's 32nd year, at Berwick-on-Tweed, salmon, for the King's use,

mouth ; on his left a bird and crescent, and a hand issuing from a cloud, beneath, in a
lozenge compartment, a bishop praying." We have not succeeded in finding any more
fish seals, but no doubt there must be other entries in the Calendars of Records that
relate to this interesting subject. The fish was probably introduced into the arms of
churchmen, in reference to the Christian symbol and to the fact that the Apostles had
been fishermen, and to our Saviour's promise to make them " fishers of men."
But these great churchmen were always the owners of extensive fish ponds, lakes,
or rivers, and their successors in these properties may have adopted the fish charge, in
the arms, less in allusion to its original signification than to the rights acquired by them
of the fishing in these rivers, etc. This is, of course, merely a suggestion. The
detailswe have gathered, though of some value, throw no light on the subject in
which we are interested, nor do they suggest any reason for the adoption of fish as a
symbol. We may except the extract given from " Nisbit's Heraldry," which certainly
proves that the fish in the arms of the Campbells of Inverawe established their right
to the salmon fishing in the River Awe. May we venture to assume that the origin
of fish as a symbol is to be found in very early days, and may have existed among
the wild tribes in Scotland and Ireland, as in other parts of the world. We know that
many wild tribes adopted some animal, beast, bird or fish, which was their Totem or
tribal ancestor, not exactly an object of worship, but of veneration, as from it they
believed they were derived : it was their progenitor. Tribes living near rivers may
have adopted a fish as their Totem, and they would naturally prefer the salmon for
their tribal ancestor, as being- the king of fish in the waters which were found in the
part of the country they inhabited. When they became Christianised and gave up
superstitions of that kind, they yet retained the salmon as a symbol of their right over
the waters, in which their supposed ancestors had sported. Thus the salmon, as a
symbol of supremacy, continued during feudal times.
Since offering all we could gather relating to the fish,we have met with a very
interesting article by J. Norman Lockyer, Esq., on the " Astronomy and Religion of
Ancient Egypt," published in the "Nineteenth Century" for July, 1892, from which,
6 — —
by the kind permission of the author, and also of the editor of the magazine, we give
the following extracts :
" I have arrived number of the Gods and Goddesses will be found to

;
of the Nile Valley, by which I mean that each district had its own special animal as the emblem
of the tribe dwelling in that locality, and that every mythological personage had to be connected
in some way with these local cults." — Page 51.
" In very many inscriptions the constellation which, as I have stated, represents the hippo-
potamus, is really represented as a is no doubt that they were
crocodile There
and we can understand, further, that the hippopotamus must have been brought into
variants,
Egypt by a tribe with that Totem, who must have come from a long way up the Nile, since the
hippopotamus was never indigenous in the lower reaches of the river so that we have, in the ;
Mythology, to do with an hippopotamus-worshipping tribe, which, for that reason, probably came
from a region very far south. There is evidence of local tribes in Egypt among which the
crocodile is sacred." — Page 38.
It is quite possible that Totemism existed under varying conditions, that the tribes
in different parts of the world, though each possessed its special Totem, yet each
regarded it in a different light. By some tribes the Totem was venerated as the
ancestor from which they were derived ; by others, it was regarded as an object of
worship. In Egypt it would seem that the Totem became the symbol of their
mythological worship of the sun, moon, and stars.
That a somewhat similar superstition still lingers, at the present time, among
some of the tribes of the West of Africa, is shown by the following extract from a
letter, written July, by Captain R. E. D. Campbell (Barcaldine), late Royal
1892,
Irish Fusiliers, now Assistant- Inspector Lagos Constabulary (West Coast of Africa),
in which, describing the battle of Maghon, he says :
" The Jebus chose the Oshun river for their principal, and, as it proved, final stand, on account
of its being a fetish river, containing fetish fish."
This fact is also mentioned by Captain Hon. A. S. Hardinge, of the Royal Scots
Fusiliers, in his account of the " Lagos Expeditionary Force in West Africa,"
published in the "Journal of the Royal United Service Institution," August, 1892,
No. 174.
For the information given from the State and also Scotch Documents and
Calendars, we are indebted to the kindness of Mrs. Edmund Campbell.

The spelling of Neil is not arbitrary, as we find it given under Niel, Neil, Neal,
and Neale. We have been told that Niel is short, as we say, for Nigel ; we cannot
vouch for the truth of this, but, if so, Niel would seem the right rendering. When
used as a surname, in some cases, the final " 1
" is doubled, and the vowels transposed.
In the surname we have adopted in all cases the mode of spelling presented to
us. In "A Memorial History" Niel is given ;
in the " Supplement" we have adopted
Neil, as it seems to be the more popular form of the name.
Argyll is now always rendered with the double " 1," but for a long time it appeared
spelt " Argyle." In old records and charters we find it given as " Ergadia," " Ergyle,"
and "Argyle," there are possibly other forms of spelling the name. We are told that
Argyll, as it now appears, is the oldest form of the name.
In Indian names we have done our best to give them as officially used
at this date.
We find in the charters, vide Appendix, page 109, that the names of the different
farms are in each charter, or nearly so, spelt differently, not unusual in those early
days. Ordnance Survey, we presume they give the names as now spelt,

It will be observed that the form of the " Supplement" differs slightly from that
of "A Memorial History." Having only notes to add to Pedigrees X. and XL, viz.,
Lochend and Kinloch, we have placed them with the lady descendants of the
Melfort Pedigree to which they belong. We have retained the numbers of these
Pedigrees as more convenient for reference.

Ann, the John Campbell of Melfort (who died in 1 7 18), was the daughter of
wife of
Lachlan, Chief of the MacLachlans, whose son Lachlan, then chief of the clan, fell
mortally wounded at Culloden.
It is not stated at what date Archibald Campbell joined the Dutch Guards, also
known as the Scotch Brigade ; but he joined them as one of a force raised by the Earl
of Argyll, from amongst his own clan, to fight in Flanders. This regiment was first
raised in1570, and was transferred to British service about 1794, and disembodied
1 818. The force mentioned must have been raised many years before he joined, but
he did so as one of the clan.
We have to add to this Note, that, as recorded, Colonel John Campbell entered the
army in the 42nd Black Watch, raised in 1740. To Colonel F. Lorn Campbell, Scots
Guards, we are indebted for the following statement: "That, in 1757, Colonel John
Campbell was gazetted as Lieutenant in the old 77th Montgomery Highlanders."
This he found in searching the military records of that date ; it has been corroborated
from a private source, hitherto inaccessible, which states as follows " Lieut. Campbell
:
J.
served in the 77th Montgomery Highlanders during the war in North America." In
1 76 1 he was gazetted as Captain in the Black Watch, his former regiment. After his
—
retirement from thearmy in 1762, at the close of the war, he served in the "Argyll
Western Fencible Regiment" (as mentioned in Stewart's "Highland Regiments"),
which was embodied in Glasgow, April, 1778. Stewart says :
" Both officers and men were animated with more than ordinary zeal and spirit, which was
kept in full activity by Colonel Montgomery and Major Campbell of Melfort, who commanded the
regiment alternately in the absence of the Colonel and Lieut-Colonel."
In the record of Captain Archibald Campbell's services we find that an error has
crept in, possibly an oversight in the correction of proof.
Captain A. Campbell is described as having entered the army in the 85th Regiment.
Correctly stated, he entered the 81st Aberdeenshire Highlanders as Ensign, 26th of
March, 1783.

We think it would be interesting to add to this Note, which records the services
of Admiral Sir Patrick Campbell, an extract from James' " Naval History," which
gives a fuller description of the gallant attack on and capture of the French frigate,
" Desiree," by H.M.S. commanded by Commander Patrick Campbell

four frigates had long been blockaded in that port. Contrary winds and unfavourable tides
afforded no opportunity, until the 7th of July. On that evening the ship sloop, ' Dart/ (thirty
32-pounder carronades), Captain Patrick Campbell, followed by the 'Biter' and 'Boxer,' gun-
brigs, and the four fire-ships .... with the cutters and small craft attending them, entered
Dunkerque roads. At about midnight, the '
Dart ' and her companions got sight of the French
ships. Soon afterwards one of the latter hailed the 'Dart,' and asked -whence she came. The
answer was, '
De Bordeaux.' The Frenchman then desired to know what convoy was astern,
meaning the gun-brigs and fire-ships. The reply was, Je ne ' sais pas.' This conversation ended,
the '

half an hour later in the tide. In this dashing enterprise, which was concluded in about fifteen
minutes, the '

" In July, 1800, the French had a squadron of frigates in Dunkirk roads. An attempt was
made to capture or destroy them, and the enterprise was entrusted to Captain Henry Inman of

curiously constructed sloop-of-war, after the plan of General Bentham, mounting 30 guns. Her

awkwardly. She carried her water in wooden tanks, and was so sharp in her construction, that

a transverse section, taken amidships, had nearly the form of a ;
the same lower mast, parallel to each other, and her gangways were outside of the lower rigging
she had no stability in the water, and was found, in blowing weather, to be a very unsafe vessel.
Captain Campbell made the only use of her for which she was calculated, viz., that of laying an enemy
on board. He gallantly ran alongside the French frigate (the '
Desiree ') of 40 guns and 350 men
as she lay at anchor, and carried her after great resistance and much slaughter on both sides.
Captain Campbell was promoted to the rank of a post captain, and his first lieutenant was made
a commander. The Earl of St. Vincent pronounced this to have been one of the finest instances of
gallantry on record."
Earl of St. Vincent was First Lord of the Admiralty at or about this time, and
was better known for his inflexible strictures than for suavity, and was by no means
profuse with praise.
This addition to Note III. corrects some errors in the dates given in "A
Memorial History."
Sir Colin Campbell, K.C.B., states, that he went to the Perth Academy, 15th of
April, 1 79 1. In 1801 he exchanged from the 35th Foot into the 78th Highlanders,
the Ross-shire Buffs, now the 2nd Battalion Seaforth Highlanders, raised 1793 by
F. H. Mackenzie, afterwards Lord Seaforth. In 1805 he was promoted to a Company
of the 75th Regiment, raised 1787 — 88, then a Highland Regiment. It ceased to be
so in 1809; but now, in 1893, it i s the Ist Battalion Gordon Highlanders.

Various articles were taken from Joseph Buonaparte's carriage, and came into Sir
Colin Campbell's possession after the battle of Vittoria. Some are now possessed by
Colonel F. Lorn Campbell, his grandson, amongst others, the Order of the Golden

china jars found amongst the spoil, and given by Sir Colin to his brother, General

PEDIGREE VII.
We wish to include in our Note the following notice of General Sir F. A. Campbell,
K.C.B., R.A., from " The Times" newspaper of the 1st of February, 1883 :
" To-day Sir Frederick Campbell, after a period of over twenty-seven years, retires from the
executive of the War Office. Sir Frederick, who was the son of General Frederick Campbell,
28 SUPPLEMENT TO A HISTORY OF THE CAMPBELLS OF MELFORT.
R.A., entered the Royal Military Academy at the age of fourteen, and in December, 1836, was
posted to the Royal Regiment of Artillery as Second Lieutenant. He served both as a
Regimental Officer and as a Staff Officer, and has nine years' Foreign Service.
"In January, 1855, the attention of the Duke of Newcastle, who was then Secretary of
State for War, was called to the constitution of the Committee of Field Officers which for many
years had assisted the Master General of the Ordnance in the consideration of scientific inventions
and improvements in the art of war. The Duke of Newcastle considered that the magnitude
and importance of the different scientific and mechanical problems, etc., etc., called for a more
extended arrangement, and the appointment of Civil as well as Military members, and he caused
what is known as the Ordnance Select Committee to be formed. To this Committee Captain
Campbell was nominated Assistant Secretary.
" In i860, Capt. Campbell, who was now Lieut.-Colonel, became himself a member of this
Committee, and he served on it until 1863, when he was transferred to the Royal Gun Factory
in succession to Sir William Armstrong as Superintendent.
" It is generally known that Sir William (now Lord) Armstrong was the first who, in this
country, introduced the system of gun construction in which a tube or steel barrel is reinforced
by a number of wrought iron coils shrunk over one another, etc., etc. The main objection to
the Armstrong principle was its cost and the loss of circumferential strength due to the presence
of the forged breech piece between the steel barrel and the reinforcing coils. Colonel Campbell
accordingly applied himself energetically to the question of economy, combined with increased
circumferential strength, due regard being had to longitudinal strength ; and by a judicious selection
of suitable iron as well as by a reduction in the number and an increase in the thickness of the
external coils, he succeeded in manufacturing heavy rifled ordnance of increased power and
general strength at considerable less cost than before.
" These important services were recognized in 1874, by his nomination as Civil Companion
of the Bath. At the expiration of his five years' tenure of office, Colonel Campbell was
reappointed to the Royal Gun Factory, and continued its Superintendent till August, 1875, when
he succeeded Sir John Adye as Director-General of Artillery and Stores at the War Office.
Major-General. In 1877 his services were further rewarded by the grant of a good service
pension, and the zeal and energy with which he carried out the important duties of his department,
particularly during the Russo-Turkish and Zulu Wars, led to his nomination, in 1880, as a
Military Companion of the Bath. At the expiration of his five years, Sir Frederick Campbell was
reappointed Director-General for two years, which appointment was subsequently extended to
February, 1883, in consequence of the Egyptian war.
" Sir Frederick now vacates office after a constant and unbroken departmental employment
of over twenty-seven years, during which he has earned the confidence of successive Secretaries of
State for War, and the respect and regard of all who have worked with him."
—
On leaving the Gun Factory, the foremen and men were desirous of marking their
esteem and their regret at his departure by some suitable acknowledgment, this he
could not receive ;
they, therefore, embodied their expression of regret and wishes for
his future in an address, beautifully illuminated and bound, which they presented, in a
handsome case of ebony, on his meeting them to say farewell.
will be interesting to give the copy of an official letter, written by the command of
Lord Napier of Magdala.
We regret that Lord Napier's private letter, which accompanied it, has been lost.
The tenor of the private letter was very gratifying, as it gave Colonel E. Campbell
credit for the possession of those qualities defined in the official letter as required for
the duties hewas to undertake, and assigning them as the reason for selecting Colonel
E. Campbell. Lord Napier, however, found it necessary to change his arrangements,
and himself conveyed the captives and others to the coast.

Wednesday, November 29th, 1889, at his residence, Merlewood, Inverness. Major Fraser was born
in 1822, at Fort George, of which his father, Major Andrew Fraser, of Flemington, was Governor
for many years. He entered the 29th Madras Native Infantry as Ensign in 1839, and exchanged
into the 30th Madras Native Infantry the following year ; he was gazetted Lieutenant in 1841, and
was soon afterwards appointed Adjutant of his regiment. He was second in command of the
Gwalior Infantry in 1850, and was transferred to the 4th Punjab Cavalry in 1851. In 1856 he
received the officiating command of the 2nd Bengal Cavalry, and in 1857 was appointed
Commandant of the 4th Punjab Cavalry. He retired invalided in 1859, with the rank of Major,
and the frontier war medal and clasp. On the 23rd July, i860, soon after his return to Inverness,
Major Fraser was appointed Adjutant of the Inverness-shire Rifle Volunteers, which he retained for
upwards of thirteen years. At a public dinner in Inverness, in 1874, Cluny (Macpherson of), who
was then Colonel of the regiment, referred in the most feeling terms to the very great services
Major Fraser had rendered the corps. Majcr Fraser, being a genuine Highlander, took a warm
interest in everything connected with the welfare of Inverness ; and not only amongst Volunteers,

THE CAMPBELLS
OF
FORMERLY KNOWN AS
10
The Arms of Sir James Campbell of Stracathro. — Vide, pageS^.
In "A Memorial History," vide page 8, will be found a slight sketch of a collateral
branch of the Campbells of Melfort, known in the Menteith district under the assumed
name of McCorran (now McOran), of the Inchanoch, Port of Menteith. This
sketch was given to us by Major-General P. J. Campbell, who received it from J. A.
Campbell, Esq., written by the instruction of his father, the late Sir James Campbell of
Stracathro, the then eldest representative of that branch of the Melfort family.
Through the kindness of our kinsmen of the Inchanoch, in allowing us access to their
family papers, we are enabled to supplement the story already given by additional
information and items of interest. We hope also to clear up some uncertainty as to
the date of the exile of their ancestor from his native county of Argyll.
We are indebted for the following story of this young fugitive to Mrs. James
Campbell, to whom it was related by her father-in-law, the late William Campbell, Esq.,
of Tullichewan. She writes to us from notes taken at the time. The story is as follows :
" About the middle of the seventeenth century, a young son of the then Campbell of
Melfort, in some fray at a family or clan gathering, caused the death of a young McColl. It must
— —
have been in some way accidental, because the father of McColl wished to screen Campbell ; but
the outcry of the family was so great that it was thought necessary for Campbell to leave the country.
In the night he was mounted on a pony, and with provisions for some days was sent off. On
getting to the low country he made his way to the Earl of Menteith, under whose protection he
placed himself. When with the Earl he met Miss Nancy Haldane, a niece of Haldane of Lanrick ;
they became attached to each other, and made a runaway marriage probably the anomalous ;
position in which the young man was placed made them think this necessary. At all events, the
Earl forgave them, and placed them on the estate of the Inchanoch, which they and their
descendants held without paying rent until the property passed into the hands of Graham of
Gartmore. Mr. Campbell used to say that two fields of the farm were called Easter- Lorn and
Wester-Lorn, in remembrance of the old Argyllshire days.
the name was taken from a branch clan in Melfort, and from McOran's Tower, a ruin there. We,"
Mrs. Campbell says, " think this the more likely reason, and our eldest son has taken the name
McOran-Campbell, to preserve the old association. It was a saying in the Menteith district that
there was never a Campbell in the Inchanoch or a McOran out of it for the members of the ;
family resumed their own name of Campbell when they passed out of the district, as did James
McOran when he and his family came to Glasgow in 1805. It is difficult to find exact dates for
the earlier events of the family history, as the parish registers for many years were accidentally
burnt. James McOran married, in 1785, Helen, a daughter of John Forrester of Frew, near
Kippen."
The Forresters had their land from the Earl of Murray for many generations, and
the family are tenants of the Frew to the present day.
In allusion to the reason given for young Campbell taking the name of McOran,
we never heard of a branch clan in the Melfort family. The McOrans and McColls
were, with others, "Followers of the Melforts"; but there may have been some
connection in the olden time.
" In early days, I went several times to the Port of Menteith with my father-in-law. The old
people we met recalled with pride the old connection with the Melforts and with the Haldanes,
who were better known in the district. The old Miss Haldanes sent Mr. W. Campbell of Tulli-
chewan the walking-stick of the Laird of Lanrick, after his death, as a recognition of the old
relationship."
" Mrs. McColl, a native of Mclfort, now aged close on ninety years, states that it was a
tradition at Melfort in her young days, that a young son of the Laird of Melfort killed a young
lad of the name of McColl. The residence of the McColls was called Cnockaconie (probably a
farm). McCoirs father screened young Campbell, but the outcry of the McColls caused Campbell
to leave the country and never return. The Campbells of Melfort showed much kindness to the
lad's family for some generations, till the last of them died, twenty or twenty-five years ago.
Isabella Ewen or Isabella daughter of Hugh, the old woman, is of the same McColls. She directed
me to an old man of the name of Sinclair, at Melfort, a shoemaker. She thinks he might know
the old story."
We know that there are still Sinclairs at Melfort. There is, or was a short time
ago, a Mrs. Sinclair, very aged, who resided at Melfort, now at Lochgilphead. She
tells the story as we know it, wdien her memory permits.
" In 1790-95, Campbell of Inchanoch introduced and stood by Captain Dougall Campbell of
Dunstaffnage when he received the gift of Burgess-ship from the city of Glasgow."
Mr. J. A. Campbell of Stracathro tells us that, when he applied to the registrar for
information from the parish records of the Port of Menteith as to the date of his uncle's
birth, he found the birth entered as the son of James McCorran (as then known), no
name of Campbell being mentioned. Thus the truth of the saying in the Menteith
district is confirmed.
In respect to the connection with the Melfort family, Mr. J. A. Campbell says :
have heard my father, Sir James Campbell, say, that when the Melforts visited at Menteith
" I
they always came to Inchanoch, acknowledging the family thus as kinsmen ; also, that in the life
time of his (my father's) grandfather and father, Capt. Neil Campbell of Melfort was a frequent
visitor at Inchanoch,* and that on Capt. Neil Campbell's invitation, the father of Sir James, when
a young man, paid a visit to Melfort, and had the promise of a commission if he would enter the
army, Also a Captain John Campbell of Melfort used to come to his father's house because of
that connection. My father, Sir James, had a visit from the last proprietor of Melfort in 1820,
who was well acquainted with the story of McOran he had also the pleasure
; of meeting Captain
Frederick Archibald Campbell, R.N., when in command of the Royal Oak.' '
We have lately received some further information from Mrs. James Campbell
* The story of Capt. N. Campbell taking unreasonable offence is told in " A Memorial History."
—
of Tullichewan.She tells us that she has been in communication with Mr. Graham-
Shepherd of Rednoch, to whose family Inchanoch was sold in 1803 by Graham of
Gartmore the former wishing to enlarge his park. Mr. Graham-Shepherd says
; :
" I am aware that my grandfather was well acquainted with your ancestor, with whom he was
good friends ;
James McOran had been tenant of Inchanoch prior to 1778; but he had no trace
of when the McOrans originally entered into possession."
Mr. Graham-Shepherd's papers plainly show that James McOran had a lease from
Gartmore from 1779 to 1800, and thereafter a lease also from Gartmore for nineteen
years, from 1800 to 181 9. This last lease was current when Inchanoch was sold in
1803. James McOran received ^525 to give up the remainder of the lease.
We have kept to the form McCorran as given in this letter and the following.
The second letter is simply dated Newton ; it is a reply to an enquiry as to the
date cf the marriage between Nancy Haldane and McCorran.
me, said Mr. Haldane was living at Lanrick with his three heiresses, so I conclude as there were
six heiresses of the next generation that it must have been one before ; the only way I can lead
you to the period is to ascertain when the last Earl of Menteith, the protector of McCorran, died.
" C. MacNah."
The Nancy McCorran mentioned in these letters was not an aunt, but a
distant relative.
We think we need hardly do more than touch upon Mr. Andrew Mitchell's first
" I think that date must have been between 1729 and 1745. The pedigree of Lanrick supports
this opinion. John Haldane of Lanrick, who held a Commission from Prince Charles in 1743, was
obliged to leave the country after the battle of Culloden, and remained in France until 1763 he ;
then returned to Lanrick, where he died in January, 1765, so Miss MacNab shows that the
marriage of McOran (as now given) with Nancy Haldane when Mr. Haldane and his daughters
were living there (the six heiresses) must have been prior to the rebellion of 1745."
We cannot but think that Miss MacNab's letter points to a different conclusion ;
she says the death of the Earl of Menteith must lead to the date of marriage, and that
the three heiresses mentioned point to an earlier generation. Miss MacNab has
proved to be correct, as we find in " Burke's Extinct Peerage," also in an old " Scotch
Peerage," that the last Earl of Menteith died in 1694. The visit, therefore, of
McOran with the Earl of Menteith to Lanrick must have been before that date.
The traditions of a family are often of more value and contain more truth than is readily
accepted. J. A. Campbell, Esq., tells us in his family history that his father's (Sir
James Campbell's) grandfather was born in 1709 and died in 1790, and he was
considered to be the grandson of the McOrans (or McCorrans as then known).
first
1670 and 1680 these dates would cover the sixty years necessary for two genera-
:
tions. We are also informed that when John, the eldest of the family of James
McCorran and Helen Forrester, was born, in 1786, an old friend of the family
remarked "this was the fifth generation of McCorrans that had appeared at
Inchanoch."
Without expressing any absolute certainty, we think that this young exile was the
—
son of Dougall and his spouse Isabella. Dougall was evidently a man of some
importance ; he was created Burgess of Linlithgow in 1650, and his chief, the Earl of
Argyll, expressed the respect and favour he had for him, vide Appendix, pages 114
and 115 of "A Memorial History." We think we may therefore assume that this
Dougall Campbell of Melfort was " Dunchorran," the honest man of this story.
A friend has kindly thrown some light on the sobriquet or byname, as an old
"
chronicler calls it, of Dunchorran. In searching his Gaelic dictionary he finds " Duin
signifies man, " Corr," excellent, eminent, great, extraordinary ; therefore we think
Dunchorran is merely a corruption of Duincorr or Duincorran, " the excellent man."
On the lands of Inchanoch there is still to be seen a mound, which the people of
the country know as the grave of the McCorrans. The tradition held by them is a
little misty, but it suggests that McCorran the exile rests there.
We now conclude this interesting family history by giving the substance of Mr.
Andrew Mitchell's communications to Mr. J. A. Campbell on the subject. In the view
he now takes he is guided by two important dates, which set at rest all doubts as to the
period when the events recorded took place, and which confirm the traditions of the
family. Mr. J.
A. Campbell, in writing to Mr. Mitchell, remarks :
" The only point in which there is some difficulty in reconciling the traditions held in our
family with the genealogical history is as to the date of marriage of McOran with Nancy Haldane.
The tradition is that it was
middle of the seventeenth century that the young Campbell of
in the
—
Melfort came as a fugitive to Menteith 1660 is the date named. The marriage must have been
between 1660 and 1680, which is considerably earlier than you favour."
Mr. Mitchell, in reply, states that his opinion now is that the traditions of
the family are correct. The first reason he gives for this view is that the grand-
father of Nancy Haldane, Sir John Haldane of Gleneagles, was killed either at the
battle or soon after the battle of Dunbar, in 1650. He left two sons Mungo and —
Patrick — by his wife Margaret Fraser, the daughter of Lord Lovat. Patrick, by the
aid of his mother,became possessed of Lanrick and Rouskie, two outlying estates of the
Gleneagles property. He thus became the head of the Haldanes of Lanrick. Nancy
Haldane was the daughter of Mungo, the elder brother. Mr. Mitchell gives as his
second reason in support of this view, certain facts concerning the Earldom of Menteith.
1 1
In 1633, Charles I. set aside the patent of the Earl of Strathern and Menteith for
family reasons. Vide " Burke's Extinct Peerage." Having put an end to one
peerage, he created another in favour of the Earl, viz., the Earldom of Airth and
Menteith. This Earl died about the middle of the seventeenth century. He
was succeeded by his grandson, William, who died the 12th Sept., 1694, when the
Earldom lapsed.
This Earl William must have been he who befriended young Campbell, and with
whom he went to Lanrick, where he met his future wife, Nancy Haldane. As the
Inchanoch was the home of the McCorrans for four generations, this young couple
were the great-grandparents of James McCorran, the last who bore that name.
The story is told. The traditions of the family are established by these two dates
of 1650 and 1694.
As some confusion might arise respecting the name McCorran, we may state that
it is now adopted as pronounced, viz., McOran. We have adhered to the old form
1
The Arms of James Campbell, now of Tullichewan (son of William Campbell, Esq.)- — Vide page 84.
As has been already stated, when the McCorrans gave up their old home of
Inchanoch, they left there the name of McCorran, and resumed their name of
Campbell.
Mr. James Campbell Glasgow in 1805 with his family of four sons
settled in
and four daughters. They entertained some idea of going to America. John, the
eldest son, was sent there as a pioneer he remained in America some years, and
;
married there. He afterwards returned to Glasgow, and was for some years in
business with his brothers, but eventually he made America his home. He purchased
a property at Fonda, in the State of New York, where he died in 1872, in his
86th year. Alexander, the third son, died in 1822. James and William entered into
business, in which they were most successful.
We here offer a slight sketch of their lives, which is taken from a valuable and
SUPPLEMENT TO A HISTORY OF THE CAMPBELLS OF MELFORT. 83
interesting work published in 1886,* "The Memoirs and Portraits of One Hundred
viz.,
Glasgow Men, who in their lives did much to make the City what it now is." These
Memoirs show that to its prosperity and success, the brothers, by their high principles,
varied talents, steadfastness of purpose, and business capacity, greatly contributed.
Having attained some knowledge of business, William, shortly joined by his elder
brother James, started as a drapery merchant. The two partners, though differing
somewhat in temper and disposition, were wonderfully qualified to render mutual aid
in their arduous work. They established in 181 7 the firm of J. & W. Campbell & Co.
Mr. William Campbell introduced a new and better system of business than was then
generally followed. The principal novelty was to have fixed prices. It was a bold
step for a new firm to take, but it was in keeping with honest convictions, and it
triumphed. From small beginnings, and with high aims, the firm took its rise such ;
was its success, that now there is scarcely any quarter of the globe but has houses
who have dealt with the establishment of J. & W. Campbell & Co., under which
name the business is still carried on by Mr. James Campbell of Tullichewan, his
second son and two nephews. After the death of Sir James Campbell of Stracathro,
his family retired from the firm.
We conclude this sketch of a good man, eminent in his position, by stating that in
May, 1845, he was presented, by three hundred subscribers, with a handsome piece of
gold plate, bearing the inscription that it was the expression of a grateful sense enter-
tained by the community of his liberal spirit and charitable disposition, both in public
and in private, and of his faithful unremitting and firm discharge of the duties of Chief
Magistrate. Sir James possessed a remarkable turn for building construction, and
was a good authority on all practical questions on the planning and erection of
buildings. In the portrait of him given in the "Memoirs" he is represented with
his drawing-board and square ;
this was his favourite indoor amusement. Another of
his characteristics was his love of farming and country pursuits. He was able fully
to gratify this taste, and also his gift of planning and improving buildings, by the
purchase of the estate of Stracathro, Forfarshire, in 1847.
At the time when Sir James Campbell obtained his coat of arms, little attention
was paid to the heraldic distinctions between the Melfort and the other branches of the
Clan Campbell, hence the Boar's Head, proper, and the motto, " Ne obliviscaris." Mr.
James Campbell of Tullichewan has recently had his coat of arms readjusted, adopting
the Melfort crest and motto.
We now offer a slight sketch of Mr. William Campbell. Unlike his brother, he was
not specially interested in public life. He was at one time elected as Town Councillor ;
but as the duties had no fascination for him, he soon retired. As a citizen of Glasgow he
will be best remembered as an example of unbounded liberality and kindness of heart ;
every charitable institution was by him liberally supported. The public gave evidence
of their esteem of his character by various presentations. Amongst them, his portrait
by the late Sir Daniel MacNee also a handsome centre table-piece, which bore the
—
;
following inscription :
" Presented to William Campbell, Esq., by a number of his
fellow-citizens, as an expression of their esteem and regard for his private worth, public
spirit, and his extensive philanthropy. Glasgow, 1837."
Mr. Campbell was gifted with an active untiring energy ; it was throughout his life
the most striking feature of his character. He could neither be idle himself nor bear to
see idleness in others. His stern honesty of purpose and clearness of character soon
came to be recognized. He was eminently hospitable and social. Like his brother, he
was an interesting companion.
The strongest part of his nature was the religious side of it. To his excellent
SUPPLEMENT TO A HISTORY OF THE CAMPBELLS OF MELFORT. 85
mother he ever expressed his obligations for whatever sense of rectitude or religious
responsibility he possessed through life. At the disruption of 1843 he threw in his lot
with the Free Church, and no member of it gave more substantial aid and valuable
counsel in the difficulties that were before it. His grasp of difficult problems of religion
and theology was unusually subtle, while his attitude to them was earnest and his treat-
all of which he delighted. We here conclude our slight sketch of a truly good man.
James Alexander Campbell, the elder son of Sir James Campbell and his wife
Janet Bannerman, was in business until 1876, when, on his father's death, he succeeded
to the estate of Stracathro. He received the honorary degree of LL.D. from
Glasgow University in 1874. He
was a member of the Scottish Universities'
Commission in 1868, of the Endowed Institutions (Scotland) Commission, 1878, and
of the Educational Endowments (Scotland) Commission, 1882. He is a member
of the Scottish Universities' Commission, 1889. He has represented the Glasgow
and Aberdeen Universities in Parliament since 1880.
The Right Hon. Henry Campbell-Bannerman is the second son of Sir James
Campbell ; he assumed, in 1872, his mother's surname of Bannerman under the will ot
War ; and again has held the same office from 1892 to the present date, 1894.
Associated with him are his younger son and two nephews ; he has always
kept a close touch with Glasgow, and interests himself in its benevolent and
charitable institutions. About three years ago he celebrated his business jubilee,
and, on the occasion, received an address and a handsome service of plate
from his late and present partners and his employees.
In connection with this family history we may mention the services of General
F. Gildea of the 21st Scots Fusiliers. He commanded his regiment during the
Transvaal War, and also the Garrison of Pretoria. For his services he was appointed
A.D.C. to H. M. the Queen. In 1887 he received the C. B. and the distinguished
service pension. He married, in 1874, Eliza, eldest daughter of James Campbell, Esq.,
of Tullichewan Castle, and his wife Jessie, daughter of James Black, Esq.
Mrs. Gildea received from Her Majesty the order of the Royal Red Cross for her
services at Pretoria during
'ft
the Transvaal War.
The family is represented in the Navy also. Mr. James Campbell's grandson,

PEDIGREE VIII.
Page 41.
There is a well founded tradition in the family of the Campbells of Achalader (or
Achalandour) that many valuable papers disappeared at a time when their then
dwelling-house was destroyed by fire, and amongst them the marriage record of
Margaret Graham and Colin Campbell of Glenurchy (also spelt Glenorchy).
In the " Elack Book of Taymouth " we find it stated that Colin, sixth Laird of
Glenurchy, obit 1583, married Margaret, daughter of Bishop Alexander Stewart,
" Lady Conuinkt fiar of Inchbrakie." In the Achalader records it is stated at page
41 of "A Memorial History," that Sir Colin, sixth Laird of Glenurchy, married
Margaret, daughter of Graham of Inchbrakie ; her mother was the daughter of
Alexander Stewart, Bishop of Inverary, son of the Earl of Mar. We also find that
she is said to be the widow (not daughter) of Patrick Graham, first of Inchbrakie, who
died in 1538, and daughter of Alexander Stewart, consecrated Bishop of Murray
in 1527.
The Bishop's father was Alexander Stewart, second son of James II., Duke of
94 SUPPLEMENT TO A HISTORY OF THE CAMPBELLS OF MELFORT.
Albany, Earl of March, Mar, and Garioch, and his mother was the Lady Catharine
Sinclair, eldest daughter of William, third Earl of Orkney, by his first wife, the Lady-
Elizabeth Douglas, daughter of Archibald, fourth Earl of Douglas, by the Princess
Margaret, daughter of Robert III., whose first husband was John Stewart, Earl of
Buchan, and second, Thomas Stewart, Earl of Garioch.
The Duke of Albany and the Lady Catharine were divorced in 1477, 8, on account
of " propinquity of blood," and their son, Alexander (afterwards Bishop of Murray),
declared illegitimate by Act of Parliament in 15 16. Hence he did not succeed to
the Dukedom.
In the " Black Book of Taymouth " is recorded the date when Archibald Campbell
first occupied the lands of Achalandour. It is there stated that in 1567 Sir Colin
Campbell, sixth Laird of Glenurchy, granted a tack of ninety years in favour of
Archibald Campbell, by which the said Archibald held certain lands therein detailed,
called the Lands of Achalandour, in Glenurchy, for which dues in kind and money were
required together with, in the words of the tack, "said Archibald's own leal and true
service and that of his subtenants occupying the said lands." This tack is duly signed
and witnessed. Also from the same source we have, under date, 1683, amongst other
names, as within the Lands of Glenurchy, those of John MacPatrick Vic-Gillespie, viz.,
In later times the heir of Glenurchy was fostered with the Campbells of Duntroon
in Argyllshire. This would appear to have been a wise and necessary precaution in
In the " Royal Commission of Historical Manuscripts," Sixth Report, Part I.,
Appendix, page 511, we find a detailed account of these contracts of fosterage between
Glenurchy and Duntroon, in connection with which we notice one curious custom,
which was that, at the death of the foster-parents, the foster-child was to receive " A
bairn's part of their gear," lands excluded.

PEDIGREE VIII.
Services of the sons of the late John Livington Campbell of Achalader, and
Isabella Margaret his wife, youngest daughter of the late Sir Colin Campbell, K.C. B.
from 1884 to 1889 ; on his return to England he was appointed Adjutant of the
Anglesea Engineer Militia; in 1892 served at Aldershot ; is now, 1893, serving in
Ireland; Captain, 1883; Major, 1891 ; Medals for Egypt. Serving 1893.
Page 43.
" Colonel (now Major-General) Archibald Edvvardes Campbell, of the Bengal Staff Corps
(eldest son of the late General John Edwardes Campbell), who has lately gone home, stood at the
head of the Assam Commission, the first name in the first grade of Deputy Commissioners,
before he left. He entered the army in January, 185 1, and was appointed an Assistant
Commissioner in Assam, while a Lieutenant, in 1862. He was posted as a Captain in the
;
Bengal Staff Corps in 1866. Since his appointment to the Assam Commission, in 1862, he has
been wholly engaged in civil duties. In the early days of his service, Colonel Campbell
was engaged in the Sonthal Campaign of 1855, 56, and also in the numerous engagements
fought in Saugor, in Central India, in the momentous years 1857 and 1858. He was severely
wounded at Nurricouli, in September, 1857. In later years he will be chiefly remembered by his
many friends in India as the popular Deputy Commissioner at Sibsagar, the great tea district of
Upper Assam. He administered that district from 1869 to 1883. His departure leaves a blank
in the Assam Commission which will be hard to fill, and the loss of his long tried experience of
affairs in our North-Eastern frontier will seriously affect the public service."
Major-General Campbell came home on sick leave in 1887, and does not
return to India; Major-General, July, 1892.

William Frederick Campbell, the youngest son of the late General John Edwardes
Campbell, entered the Royal Marines, and is now Lieut.-Colonel in the Royal

To this revised Pedigree we have not only to add additional Notes, but we can
now offer a more complete and correct Pedigree of the MacDougalls of Dunollie. For
all the earlier portions of this Pedigree authorities are given, which will be shown ; the
later generations appear in the family records. Unfortunately their muniments, in great
part, were destroyed by fire in troublous times ; happily the historical and other
authentic authorities afford us, in the earlier times, information both valuable and
interesting, not now to be found in the records of this family. There are still some
names wanting, but the descent is clearly and undoubtedly carried down to Colonel
Charles Allen MacDougall, the present chief.
We have also in our possession some interesting Pedigrees showing the relation
of the MacDougalls to the crowned heads of England and Germany, and the late

SUPPLEMENT TO A HISTORY OF THE CAMPBELLS OF MELFORT. IO3
jfesantmnts of tlj£
We shall not, in this Pedigree, attempt to record any earlier marriage than that of
Janet, daughter of Duncan MacDougall of Dunollie, he who in 1590 claimed Charter
from James IV. Janet married Archibald, second of Lochnell, son of John Campbell,
first of Lochnell, and Mary Campbell of Ardkinglass, and grandson of Colin, third
Earl of Argyll, who died in 1533 (vide Burke, 1878). By this marriage the Lochnells
can claim descent from the MacDougalls of Dunollie. Archibald married, for his
second wife, a daughter of Maclean of Dowart, by whom he had no issue his third ;
wife was a daughter of Cheyne (probably Dr. Cheyne, one of the learned men of that
century), they had a son, John, ancestor of Coreleigh. Sybella, his fourth wife, was a
daughter of John Drummond of Colquhaizie ; the descendants of their son James
were the ancestors of Campbells of Stonefield and Belerno of Cruachiel. Alexander,
third of Lochnell, married Isabel, a daughter of MacDougall of Rara (his first wife).
Colin, son of Colin Campbell, fifth of Lochnell, and Veronica his wife, a daughter of
Maclachlan of Fassefern (?), Mary Campbell, their daughter,
succeeded to Barbrec ;
Dr. Cheyne was one of the learned correspondents of Colin Campbell, minister
of Ardchattan. — See Campbells of Barcaldine, Supplement, page 130.

MacDOUGALLS OF MacDOUGALL
OF DUNOLLIE.
PEDIGREE IX.
Page 52.
We wish to correct an error for which we were not accountable, but which we are
now able to put right. It is stated in "A Memorial History" that Elizabeth
Sutherland, the eldest child of Patrick and Louisa Maxwell MacDougall, married her
— —
cousin Neil MacDougall of Ardentrive, who fell at Castalla in Spain. It was Isabella,
the eldest surviving daughter (twin sister of Mary who died), who married her cousin
Neil MacDougall of Ardentrive ; he fell during the war, at Castalla, in Spain. Their
daughter, Louisa Maxwell Campbell MacDougall, married George Joy, Esq., of
she married the second Marquis of Stafford, who was created Duke of Sutherland
in 1833.
Page 53.
We are indebted for this story to "Mrs. Campbell of Balliveolan, now Mrs.
MacDougall of Dunollie.
The family still possess the letters written to his wife, in which he bids her to
lOS SUPPLEMENT TO A HISTORY OF THE CAMPBELLS OF MELFORT.
defend the Castle of Dunollie. She courageously prepared to carry out his wishes ;
He first took refuge with his wife's relatives, the MacDonnells of Antrim, and it
is said that he lived at one time in a cave at Gallanach, near Oban. He was
apprehended at last, and was for several years a prisoner in London, but with the
other Highland Chiefs was pardoned, and returned home in 1727.
The first to meet him was his daughter Catharine, whom he had left as
a child in arms.
We might here add that not only were the MacDonalds (of Sleat) closely
connected by intermarriages with their cadet branch, the MacDonnells of Antrim, but
that the MacDougalls also took wives from these fellow-descendants of Somerled.
In "Gregory's History of the West Highlands and Islands," page 63, he mentions
"that among those Scots who, during the fifteenth century, married daughters of this
family were Roderick Mac Alan of Moydert, MacDougall of Lome, and Bannatyne
of Karnes."
The MacDonnells of Antrim descended from John Mor, second son of " the Good
John of Isla," and his second wife Lady Margaret Stewart, daughter of King
Robert II., formed the " Clan Ian Vor," but were usually styled " Lords of Dunyveg (a
castle in Isla) and the Glynnes," i.e., the Glens in the County of Antrim.
In "A Memorial History," page 51, we find it stated, as taken from historical
records, that "The MacDougalls, with their cousins, the Comyns, supported the cause
of Balliol. The estate of MacDougall, then Lord of Lorn, was forfeited, and given to
his uncle Duncan. The lands and superiority of Lorn were bestowed on the Stewarts
of Innermeath." These lands of Lorn were restored to Ewin MacDougall in 1344,
and were by him bestowed on his two daughters, co -heiresses, who, strangely enough,
both married into the family of the Stewarts of Innermeath, to whom the forfeited
lands of Lorn had been given at the time of the contention between Bruce and Balliol.
In "A Memorial History," page 9, we find it stated that "Sir Colin Campbell of
Glenorchy married Margaret, one of the three daughters and co-heiresses of John
Stewart, second Lord of Lorn (he was the third Laird). His father, Robert, the first
Lord, was created a Lord of Parliament in 1439, as '
Robertus Dominus Lorn.' By
Margaret, Sir Colin Campbell of Glenorchy possessed one-third of the lands of Lorn.
His nephew Colin, first Earl of Argyll, married Isabel Stewart, and with her received
• — —
one-third of the lands. The Earl afterwards came into possession of the other third
by exchange of the lands of Otter with Archibald, half-brother of Sir Colin Campbell
of Argyll. He (Colin, Earl of Argyll) thus acquired superiority of two-thirds of the
lands of Lorn."
Archibald Campbell of Otter is said to have married the third sister, and he is
also called a cousin ; we read, however, in Burke's "Extinct Peerage," 1883, that the
third daughter, Marion Stewart, married Arthur Campbell of Otter, not Archibald, and
this is confirmed by Lord Archibald Campbell, in his " Records of Argyll," in which
he also gives the name as Arthur Campbell of Otter.
The substance of the following Notes is taken from " The Genealogy of the
House of Argyll" collected by Alexander Colvin, and published in the " History of
Glasgow," the title is " Glasghu Fades."
" Upon his marriage (Earl of Argyll) with the Lady Isabella, daughter and co-heiress of John
Stewart, Lord Lorn, he took that title and the arms of the family, and, as a confirmation of it,
" Colin (Earl of Argyll) acquired part of the Lordship of Lorn in the parish of Dollar by
marrying the eldest of the three daughters of John Stewart, third Lord of Lorn and Innermeath.
He did not, as is generally stated, acquire any part of the Lordship of Lorn by this marriage
(which passed to Walter, brother of John, the fourth (?) Lord of Innermeath and heir of entail),
but obtained that lordship by exchange of the lands of Baldonig and Innerdonig, etc., in Perth-
shire, with the said Walter. In 1470 he was created Baron of Lorn."
This last account agrees in substance, though it varies in detail, with that given by
Lord Archibald Campbell in his " Records of Argyll." In the revised " MacDougall
Pedigree " additions have been made to enable the reader to see at a glance how the
Lordship of Lorn passed from the MacDougalls to the Argylls, and how the present
MacDougalls are descended from both the ancient and modern Lords of Lorn.
—
subsequent disappearance during many generations, and its final return to Dunollie,
are well established historical facts which do not admit of doubt or uncertainty.
During the long period that the Brooch was lost to the MacDougalls, and in the
absence of any direct knowledge of its fate, it is not surprising that imagination should
have supplied the place of truth, and that many stories were circulated, including
the one generally received as authentic, recorded in "A Memorial History"; these
different stories, now that the true History of the Brooch is, for the first time,
brought to light, have proved to be simply fables !
The story which we now present is derived from the most direct and reliable
sources possible, from information supplied by members of the two families concerned,
and therefore its indisputable truth is placed beyond question.
We now quote from a pamphlet published by authority in 1888, when its present
owner kindly lent the Brooch to the Glasgow Exhibition of that year.
" The Brooch was long preserved at Dunollie Castle, the seat of Lord Lorn (the MacDougalls
were then Lords of Lorn), but disappeared in the seventeenth century, when the Castle was
besieged and burned by the MacNeils, assisted by the Campbells of Bragleen (Bar-Gleen as then
styled) it was believed in the county to have
; been carried off by the latter, whilst the MacNeils
were busy with the Charter Chest. The Bragleens never displayed or boasted of their possession."
They no doubt considered it a trophy of their victory, which they naturally wished
to retain in their own keeping.
MacDougall of MacDougall having taken part with and protected a person named
"
Livingstone, who had killed a son of Campbell of Fauns, and thereby exposed himself to the
indignation of that powerful clan, Campbell of Bragleen, a man well known for his fierce and
determined character, undertook to avenge the death of his fellow-clansman, assembled a band
of his followers, invaded the Island of Kerrara, and stormed and burned the Castle of Gylan,
committing an indiscriminate slaughter on the MacDougalls, eighteen of whom he precipitated
from the battlements of the Castle ; among the spoil taken on that occasion was a Brooch that
had belonged to the Bruce, and had remained for ages in the family ; this ancient relic is now
again in the possession of the MacDougalls of Dunollie. "
SUPPLEMENT TO A HISTORY OF THE CAMPBELLS OF MELFORT. I I I
The vicissitudes of the famous relic were not ended. It remained in the possession
of the Campbells of Bragleen for two hundred years, until after the death of Major
Campbell of Bragleen, in 18 19, leaving three infant daughters, of whom the eldest,
Miss Susan Campbell, is the present proprietrix of the estate, one of the few who still
As already stated, the MacDougalls believed the Brooch to have been lost or
destroyed, so that the late Sir John MacDougall did not know that it existed, until, to
his intense astonishment, he was informed, by a mutual friend, that it was safe and in
Thus for the first time for two hundred years a MacDougall of MacDougall beheld
the famous relic, so intimately associated with his family history, and all its stirring and
proud recollections, and beheld it as the property of another.
A few years after this strangely dramatic incident, in 1824, the Brooch was
acquired by General Campbell of Lochnell, a near kinsman of Mrs. Campbell of
Bragleen, who was of the Lochnell family. Thus the Brooch again changed owners,
and passed out of the possession of the youthful heiress of Bragleen to whose ancestor
it had fallen as a spoil of war. Had Major Campbell left a son, the idea of alienating
the Brooch would never have been entertained.
However, the further fortunes of the Brooch of the Bruce were singularly
appropriate.
Thus the Brooch of Lorn and relic of the Bruce found its way back to the

MacDOUGALLS of ardentrive
(ARGYLLSHIRE).
Neil MacDougall appears in the Army List as gazetted Lieutenant to the 75th
(Highlanders) Regiment, 28th July, 1808. In a private letter of his cousin's, Sir Colin
Campbell, K.C.B., he is described as being in the Adjutant-General's Department, with
the Sicilian army. He fell at Castalla in 1813. We quote the following from "The
Morning Post," May 19th, 18 13 :
" I can with truth affirm that there was not an officer or soldier engaged who did not court
the glorious termination of an honourable life in the discharge of his duty to his King and
country."
The 75th Regiment was cailed the Stirlingshire Regiment ; it is now the 1st
Colonel James Graham, Bengal Staff Corps, served during capture of Lucknow,
in March, 1858 ; and from March to September, 1858, with the force under the
command of Major-General Sir Hope Grant, K.C. B. ;
present at affairs of Koorsee,
Baree, and Simree ; engagement at Nawabgunge at ; the occupation of Fyzabad, and
at the crossing of the Gogra, in November, 1858. Mentioned in Sir Hope Grant's
despatches. Medal and Clasp.
Louisa Maxwell Campbell MacDougall was the only daughter of Lieut. Neil
MacDougall of Ardentrive. Lieut. Neil married his cousin Isabella, eldest surviving
daughter of Patrick MacDougall of Dunollie. Louisa M. C. MacDougall married,
December 4th, 1832, at Holy Trinity, Micklegate, York, George Joy, Esq., of Belfast,
also of Galgorm Castle, Co. Antrim, and afterwards of Woodtown House, Dublin,
Co. Dublin. Mrs. George Joy died in Dublin, 17th April, 1891.
George Joy, late Captain 7th Queen's Own Hussars, of Conyngham Lodge,
Curragh Camp, second son of the late George Joy, Esq., and his wife Louisa Maxwell
Campbell MacDougall, died in Dublin, Feb. 26th, 1891.
I2 4 SUPPLEMENT TO A HISTORY OF THE CAMPBELLS OF MELFORT.
Mary Jane MacDougall was married to Charles Hale Monro in 1827, not 1828.
Charles James, not Alexander, was married to Marion Withington not Whittington.
Seymour Vassal Hale Monro was in the 78th, not 98th, Highlanders.
It is a matter of history that the Highland clans of Scotland had each its distinctive
badge. As their feuds and fights were many, and they were unencumbered with armour
and such-like gear, a badge worn in their "bonnet," so called, enabled them to
distinguish friend from foe. These badges were chosen from the different trees,
shrubs, plants, heathers, and mosses common to the Highlands, and easily found.
" Cypress, only one British variety, known as Juniper (vulgaris), which grows on hillsides and
in sandy places. Derivation of name from 'juniprus,' a Celtic word for rough and rude; the
plants of this variety being stiff shrubs."
Juniper is the badge of the Clan MacLeod, as well as the Whortleberry (see
Robertson's " Historical Proofs"). The MacDougalls could, therefore, lay no claim to
it. We have heard the Yew mentioned as representing the Cypress. The Yew is the
badge of the Frasers. No clan would venture to assume the arms, crest, or badge of
another clan with impunity. In those clays such rights were sacred, and carefully
guarded. Still, we see some truth in the idea that the Cypress was represented by the
Yew as a substitute, as, although not botanically related, they have points of similitude.
The Yew differs from the Cypress in having spreading branches, whereas the Cypress is
close growing.
126 SUPPLEMENT TO A HISTORY OF THE CAMPBELLS OF MELFORT.
Crusaders, is borne out by their crest, which is a " Crusader's Cross," and by the
Cypress as a badge. The Cypress may have been them a sad memory of some noted to
or favourite clansman who fell in the fight, and whose remains were left in the Holy
Land. The Crusader's Cross, like the Scallop Shell, was a memento of the pious and
active zeal which actuated the Crusaders. Both the Cypress and the Yew are
emblematic of loss and sorrow ;
the Gaelic name of the Cypress may have been given
to by the MacDougalls, who look on both their badges as " unlucky." There are
it
some dwarfed and stunted descriptions of Yew, which no doubt flourished in the High-
lands one of these may represent the Cypress, or be the badge of the Frasers.
; It
seems to admit of no doubt, that, as the Cypress is not to be found in the Highlands,
except botanically as Juniper, it required a substitute or representative.
We think that the chief of a clan and his direct descendants were alone entitled to
the Cypress as a badge. The collateral branches, also their "followers and dependants,"
who were numerous, shown by an old family paper we have recently seen, claim the
as
Mountain Myrtle as their badge, and call it the MacDougall badge but it does not ;
represent, nor is it a substitute for, the Cypress. It was quite necessary that they should
have a distinctive badge. For this information regarding the Mountain Myrtle we are
indebted to Major Stewart MacDougall of Lunga. By the kindness of Colonel
William Campbell MacDougall, the present representative of the MacDougalls of
Ardentrive, we have received a rubbing from a silver salver presented to his father,
Duncan MacDougall of Ardentrive, by " Highlanders whom he had at various times
befriended." It represents the arms, crests, the two badges (Bell Heather and Cypress),
and also the crossed Eagle's Feathers peculiar to those who are blood relatives
of the Chief of the Clan MacDougall.
The arms are also beautifully represented on a silver snuff-box presented to the
above-mentioned " Duncan MacDougall, Esq., their Captain, by the Non-Com-
missioned Officers and Privates of the Midlorn Company of the 4th Battalion Argyll-
shire Volunteers, as a testimony of their respect for him as an officer and a
gentleman."
We have to come to the conclusion that the Cypress is possibly represented by the
Yew, or by a tree of the same family, described as " dwarfed and stunted," certainly
neither by Juniper nor Mountain Myrtle. We are able to represent the Badge correctly
with Bell Heather and the true Cypress (from Kew Gardens).
Heather is the badge of the Lords of the Isles, which the MacDougalls once were.
We may almost say that as such they are still represented by the MacDonalds, as from
SUPPLEMENT TO A HISTORY OF THE CAMPBELLS OF MELFORT. 12'
Ranald or Reginald, the second son of Somerled, the progenitor of the MacDougalls,
sprang the MacDonalds (see Pedigree II. of Supplement), their different families and
clans, and the MacDonalds eventually became the Lords of the Isles. Each of these
clans adopted a variety of Heather as its badge. To the MacDougalls of MacDougall
pertained the Bell Heather and the Cypress. We have nothing more to offer respecting
these badges. We fear much that would interest us is lost in the mists of time.
THE CAMPBELLS OF BARCALDINE.
Vide "A Memorial History."— Pages 72 and 73.
To our slight sketch of this family we are able to make a few corrections ; we also
give additional information and record events that have occurred since 1882.
Dunstaffnage, by whom he had, besides others, his son and heir, John, and a daughter,
Annabella, who married John Campbell of Kinloch; his second wife was Bertha, daughter
of Murray of Ochtertyre. John, second Laird of Barcaldine, married, first in 1647,
Margaret, daughter of Campbell of Clathic (not Classic, as stated), by whom he had
a son, Alexander, who succeeded him ; he married, secondly, Isabel, sister of Sir Ewen
Cameron of Lochiel, by whom he had a son, who became the ancestor of the Campbells
of Balliveolan, and a daughter, Margaret, who married MacDougall of Corrilorn.
of Sir John Sinclair of Ulbster, Bart., and their daughter, Jean, married James, Earl of
Caithness, in 1784. John, the fifth Laird, sold his estates to his half-brother, Duncan,
who carried on the succession and became Campbell of Barcaldine and Glenure.
SUrrLEMENT TO A HISTORY OF THE CAMPBELLS OF MELFORT. I 29
Patrick, the fourth Laird, had by his second wife, Lucia, four daughters and seven
sons. His daughters were Isabella, who married Campbell of Achalader Mary, who ;
Colin, the third daughter, born after her father's death, married James Baillie, Esq.,
merchant, in London, of Ealing Grove, Middlesex ; M.P. for Horsham, second son of
Hugh Baillie, Esq., of Dochfour, Co. Inverness. Her grandson, Colin Campbell
Baillie, Esq., of Glenure House, Charlton King's, Gloucestershire, and Earl's Fee,
Essex, devised his real estate in Essex (subject to its settlement on his wife for life), as
also his residuary estate to his cousin, Sir Duncan A. D. Campbell of Barcaldine, Bart.
Mr. Baillie died in 1889, and his widow in 1892.
Donald, second son of Patrick, fourth Laird of Barcaldine and Glenure, by his
second marriage, was a surgeon in the Royal Navy.
Allen, the seventh son, fought in the American war, and became a general officer.
Alexander died in 1800, and was succeeded by his son, Duncan, who was created
first Baronet of Barcaldine and Glenure in 1831. He was Captain in the Scots
Fusilier Guards; served at Copenhagen and in the Peninsula; acted as A.D.C. to
his cousin, General Sir Alexander Campbell, Bart, (of Achalader), at the battle of
Talavera, etc. ; married, in 18 15, Elizabeth Dreghorn, daughter of James Dennistoun,

of the Royal Geographical Society of England. In 1884 Her Majesty the Queen
appointed Sir Duncan Alexander Campbell Gentleman Usher of the Green Rod ;
Reginald Erie Duncan, the second son, born 1857, late a Captain in the 89th
Regiment (Royal Irish Fusiliers) ; he retired from the Army 1891, and entered the
Colonial Service ; he was appointed Assistant- Inspector Lagos Constabulary (West
Coast of Africa). Shortly after his arrival he was sent up country, and commanded
the rearguard at the battle of Maghon, in an expedition against the Jebus, 1892
(Medal).
Sir Alexander Campbell left two daughters — Harriette Beatrice Mabel and Flora
Mary Muriel.
" Colin was a man of great intellectual power and profound thought, as shown by his writings
and correspondence. Although his lot was cast in stirring times, he was but little affected by the
events of the outer world, as he avoided publicity and lived in great seclusion.
" Colin was born in 1644 he was a younger son of Patrick Campbell, first Laird of Barcal-
'>
dine, by Beatrix, a daughter of Murray of Ochtertyre his paternal grandfather was Sir Duncan
;
Campbell, first Baronet of Glenorchy, ancestor of the house of Breadalbane. The now ruined
Castle of Barcaldine may have been the place of Colin's birth. He studied at St. Andrews, and,
after travelling abroad with his cousin, Sir Robert Campbell of Glenorchy, was admitted, when
twenty-six years of age, to the charge of Ardchattan and Muckairn. He served in these united
— 1
parishes for nearly sixty years, till his death in 1726. Colin seems to have published nothing,
thus showing what one of his eminent correspondents calls his '
vicious modesty, but for which
he might have given to the world what would have made those known to fame ashamed of their
own productions/ Now, nearly two centuries after they were written, two curious metaphysical
tracts are published for the first time. They reveal, in some measure, what Colin Campbell was
intellectually. One tract is called ' A Demonstration of the Existence of God, against Atheists,'
the other '
The Trinity of Persons in the Unity of Essence '
; these tracts were printed by William
Blackwood and Sons in 1876.
" The manuscripts have lately been deposited in the library of the University of Edinburgh
by John Gordon, LL.D., and the Rev. A. MacLean, to whom we are indebted for their present
appearance in print. They contain speculations on some of the deepest questions that can interest
the mind of man, made at the time when Locke was pondering his famous Essay/ and Liebnitz '
persistency in his seclusion and of his considerable epistolary intercourse with contemporary
celebrities : Sir Isaac Newton, Liebnitz, Colin MacLaurin, the famous Professor of Mathematics
in Edinburgh University, Bishop Burnet, Dr. A. Pitcairn, Dr. Cheyne, and others.
" Besides the two tracts, now printed, there were some on various and some on learned
subjects, as well as a large number of mathematical and astronomical problems and solutions."
The Extracts here offered were taken from a short biographical notice of Colin
Campbell, published in an Oban paper, 1876, and signed "Ardchattan Manse,
H.A.C.F."
We give the following Extract from " Pennant's Scotland," Vol. II., page 412 :
" See at a distance on the northern bank of Loch Etive the site of Ardchattan, a priory of
monks of Vallis Canlium, founded A.D. 1250, by Duncan MacCoul, ancestor of the MacDougalls
of Lorn."
—
In connection with the records of the Maclachlans of that Ilk we have lately met
with some details that are interesting.
Colonel Lachlan Maclachlan, then Chief of Clan, led his clansmen and the men of
MacLean at Culloden, 1745 ; he was the first officer who fell on that eventful day, and
his riderless steed returning to the castle gave the earliest intimation of the sad fate of
its rider. To this day they show the stable of the " dun horse " in the ruins of Castle
Lachlan, which, in 1747, was bombarded by a frigate that was sent up Loch Fyne.
The estate was confiscated ; but popular tradition says was returned because the judge
thought it was a joke when the crier called the case of " Lachlan Maclachlan of
Maclachlan, Castle Lachlan, Strathlachlan."
To Mr. John MacLachlan of Auckland, New Zealand, we are indebted for the
following :
" My great-grandfather was Donald Maclachlan of Killinochanock, and he married his cousin,
a Miss Maclachlan of Maclachlan, daughter of the Chief of the Clan, who fell at Culloden. My
father says he has often sat on his grandmother's knee and heard her tell of her escape with her
mother and brothers from Castle Lachlan, when that place was shelled by a frigate sent up Loch
Fyne after Culloden. Kenneth, the father of Donald Maclachlan, was married to one of the
Duntroon Campbells, and I have now in my possession a stone taken from the front of the old
house at Killinochanock with the initials K. M. L. and A. C, 1739.' These are the initials of
'
Kenneth and his wife, and the stone was sent to my grandfather, Captain Neil Maclachlan, by one
of the Malcolms of Poltalloch, who now own the property. This stone had lain in a garden at
Lochgilphead for thirty or forty years, and I found it there when I went to Scotland."
—
Mr. John MacLachlan relates that his father, Lachlan Maclachlan, was latterly
magistrate of Sandhurst, in the Colony of Victoria. In the early clays of the Gold
Fields, and for twenty years thereafter, he did good service as a Magistrate, and earned
the sobriquet of " Bendigo Mac," by which title he is still known by the early settlers
and diggers in New Zealand and Australia. Many characteristic stories are told of his
dealings with the lawless characters of those times, when equity was more appreciated
than law on the bench. Some of these stories redound more to the credit of his heart
than of his head.
" I cannot tell you when the male branch of the Maclachlans of Killinochanock left the
Strathlachlan, but there are several references to this family in '
Thompson's Ratonis ' in the
Signet Library, Edinburgh. When I was last in the Highlands, an old retainer of the Maclachlans
told me that he had often heard the late Robert Maclachlan of Strathlachlan speak of my grand-
father, Captain Neil Maclachlan, as his only friend, that is connection, and I have always understood
that my father, Lachlan Maclachlan, lately Magistrate of Sandhurst, in the Colony of Victoria, was
the next of kin. The late Robert Maclachlan, Convener of Argyll, was succeeded by his
nephew, George, son of the late George Maclachlan, W.S. He is the present Chief of Clan."
We have only lately received the following record respecting the cadet branch of
the Maclachlans of Strathlachlan. We are pleased to be able to include it in their
history. Failing the present Chief and his brothers, Archibald, the eldest son of the
late Archibald Neil Campbell-Maclachlan would succeed as Chief of Clan. This cadet
branch is descended from Robert, brother of Lachlan who fell at Culloden. Robert
is called a " kindly tenant" of Feoline ; it seems to have been the portion of the cadet
branch. Robert of Feoline, a cousin of the Chief Lachlan, inherited as kindly tenant.
He married Mary Campbell ;
her brothers — James and Archibald —attained high
military rank. Archibald Neil Campbell-Maclachlan (Clerk in Holy Orders) was the
vicar and patron of Newton Valence, Hampshire. He was the grandson of Robert,
and the son of General Archibald Maclachlan and Jane his wife, sixth daughter of
Capt. Neil Campbell (Duntroon). A. N. Campbell-Maclachlan died in 1891, leaving
six sons and three daughters. He married Mary Elizabeth, daughter of Charles
Sidebottom, Esq., of Elm Bank, Worcester.
5. Alexander Fraser, born 1875, still at Eton, where all his brothers were also
educated.
John Cameron of Fassifern, who married his cousin, Jane, daughter of John
Campbell of Achalader, was the younger brother of Cameron of Lochiel, known as the
"gentle Lochiel of the 45." John had a son, Ewen, who was created a Baronet in 181
in recognition of the distinguished conduct of his son, Colonel John Cameron. Sir
Ewen had two sons — the celebrated Colonel John Cameron, of the 92nd Highlanders,
killed at Quatre Bras, of whom and of such as he, the Duke of Wellington said, " It is
impossible not to lament such men, both on account of the public and as friends " and
;
Sir Duncan, who succeeded him. Sir Duncan had one daughter and heiress, who
married, 1844, Alexander Campbell, Esq., of Monzie (see " Supp.," page 136). Colonel
John Cameron, of the 92nd Highlanders, was the grandson of John Cameron of Fassi-
fern and his wife Jane Campbell of Achalader.

THE CAMPBELLS OF DUNSTAFFNAGE.
(Vide " A Memorial History," page 79.)
We here give some additional information and events that have occurred since
1882.
Kinlochlaigh (the low-lying head of the loch), afterwards called Innistorre, was
bought by John Campbell of Lochend, when he parted with the old property of
his ancestors in Perthshire ; he was the maternal great-grandfather of the present
Alexander Campbell, 19th Captain of Dunstaffnage. It was called " Lochend " by him,
and was sold by his son John, who went to Australia, in 182 1, to Captain Patrick

THE CAMPBELLS OF DUNTROON
Pages 84 and 85.
Since 1882 we have received additional information and items of interest which we
now record. We also correct an error which appears in " A Memorial History," where
the name of Sir Hope Grant appears instead of that of Sir Patrick Grant.
Captain Neil Campbell of Duntroon and Oib, vide page 83 of "A Memorial
History," was twice married, and left three sons and eight daughters. His first wife
was Matilda, daughter of John Campbell of Barcaldine, by whom he had four daughters.
His second wife was Jean, daughter of Captain Archibald Campbell of Barbreck and
Blandfield (late King's Dragoon Guards). He was of the family of Craignish, and
married his cousin, a daughter of the Laird of Craignish. Barbreck, at that time, was
part of the Craignish property ; it is now possessed by a branch of the old Lochnell.
By his second wife Capt. Neil Campbell had three sons, vide page 84 of "A Memorial
History," and four daughters. The eight daughters were— the eldest, Beatrice, married
the Rev. Patrick Grant of Duthel, vide letter from Sir Patrick Grant ; second, Jane,
married MacDougall of Ardentrive, vide Pedigrees V. and VI. of Supplement ;

It is stated in "A Memorial History," page 84, on the authority of the Rev.
——
" My great-grandfather, maternal, was Capt. Neil Campbell of Duntroon. His first wife was

We here offer a short record of the family of Mrs. Dyce, fifth daughter of
Captain Neil Campbell. She had three surviving sons — the eldest, Alexander, was
in Holy Orders, and well known in the world of letters as a profound Greek scholar,
and as an editor of "Shakespeare." He bequeathed to the nation the valuable
" Dyce Collection " at South Kensington.
General Archibald Dyce and his wife, Jane E. Maclachlan, had two daughters.
The eldest, Jane, married, 1868, Donald Archibald Campbell of Glenmore, of the old
Breadalbane family ; his mother was of the old Lochnell family, and a sister of the
The Rev. Archibald Neil Campbell Maclachlan, son of Mrs. Maclachlan, sixth
daughter of Captain Neil Campbell, died 1891, vide pages 76 and 84 of "A

The late eminent Divine, Dr. Norman Macleod, D.D., was descended from the
Duntroon family, in the female line ; his great-grandmother being a sister of Captain
Neil Campbell. He had conferred upon him the honour of Dean of the Most Noble
and Most Ancient Order of the Thistle, and Dean of the Chapel Royal, and was one
of Her Majesty's chaplains.
It has been supposedsome quarters, owing to the strong tie between them,
in
that Melfort, Dunstaffnage, and Duntroon were brothers. We cannot support this
tradition we find no mention of such a connection in any of the records we have
;
—
searched. We can, however, quite understand how the idea has arisen. Dunstaffnage
and Duntroon were the sons of Sir Colin Campbell, called Iangantaich, viz., wonderful,
eccentric ; he was also known as Colin Maith, or Good Colin. He was the thirteenth
Knight of Lochawe and twelfth Campbell. This Sir Colin had a younger son, Neil,
whose mother was the daughter of Abbot MacMister. Neil became Dean of Argyll,
and was the progenitor of the Parsons of Kilmartine ; the chronicler adds, " None
of this family are now extant."
Neil Campbell of Melfort was the son of Sir Colin, known as Colin Oig, or Young
Colin ; he was eleventh Knight of Lochawe and tenth Campbell. That a close
friendship existed between these three kinsmen — Melfort, Dunstaffnage, and Duntroon
—is shown by the "compact " already mentioned, and by the aid they gave each other
in any emergency, in "A Memorial History," at page 3, and elsewhere. Melfort
follows the two brothers, instead of taking precedence, which was his proper position,
as he was, at least, two generations their senior.
The cadet families of Duntroon were as follows, they left at various times :
Campbells of Rudell, Rassalie, Knap, Gillanree (the King's Island), and Oib. These
families acknowledged Duntroon as their head.
DUNTROON CASTLE.
The old " Castle of the Turrets " is the only castle that is now inhabited in that
part of the country. Its perfect preservation is, doubtless, due to the massive walls
for which it has always been famed. They are of such thickness that a small room is
each year, to claim the best horse in their stable, " the heriot horse," as it was legally
termed. This claim was always commuted by an annual payment of a fixed sum,

called vassalage, " to redeem the heriot horse," and these four families were termed
vassals of Duntroon. The claim, of course, remained in force to the date of the sale
of Duntroon to Malcolm of Poltalloch.
CHARTER CHEST.
The Duntroon charter chest disappeared during the bankruptcy of the agent to
whom Sir Neil Campbell had entrusted it for safe keeping during his absence abroad.
Sir Neil offered a reward of ^"iooo for its recovery, but without success. This is

important and interesting to be altogether omitted.

of the family and all its records; these he has left in the care of Mrs. McWilliam, the only child
of his elder brother. Stephan, the son of John of Cologane, married Anne, a daughter of MacDonald
(Clanranald), vide Pedigree II. of Supplement. Morgen- The estate of Morningstar, in Danish,
was purchased by William, only son of Stephan, who was the first of the family who
stjern,
went to Santa Cruz, the Danish West Indies they had other property there. These estates;
remained in possession of the family over three generations; they had also Seville, in Trinidad.
By the vicissitudes of fortune these have all passed out of their possession. William, by
his second wife, Elizabeth Gibbs, left one daughter, Elizabeth, of whom hereafter ; William,
son of William by his first wife, Helen, married Sarah Elizabeth Gordon, who brought
him the estate of Seville, in Trinidad, West Indies. Their son, George Gordon MacDougall,
on the loss of his fortune, was appointed Secretary of the Classical Library of Copenhagen.
When visiting his relations in Scotland he was, by the upsetting of a boat, unfortunately
drowned off Largs. Julie de Treville Martini, his wife, was descended from a Huguenot family,
who took refuge in Denmark. They left four sons and three daughters. Their eldest son,
Charles William Gordon, married and went to India, where latterly he was tutor and guardian to
two young Native Princes. He died suddenly, leaving one daughter, Ella, now Mrs. McWilliam.
George Julius Gordon, Rear-Admiral, we shall notice hereafter. Erik Gordon married in India ;
he now represents the family in the male line ; his one surviving son, Erik, is in the Burmese
Military Police, as described in Pedigree. Augustus, D.R.N., deceased. Of the daughters — Elizabeth
married Professor Dahlarup, Court Physician ; Georgina, to Oluf Banz, of Jutland, now in America ;
Sally, to Commander Moller, D.R.N. Elizabeth, mentioned above as the daughter of William
and Elizabeth (nee Gibbs), his second wife, married Theodore Henry Broadhead, Esq., of
Monk Bretton, Yorkshire, in 1797. She Gordon
is described as the daughter of William
MacDougall, descended from the MacDougalls of Lorn, vide "Burke's Peerage" of 1878.
Their daughter, Elizabeth Broadhead, married her cousin, Sir George Henry Dashwood of
West Wycombe, in 1823. The eldest son of Theodore and Elizabeth, Sir Theodore Henry
Lavington Broadhead, became Sir Theodore Henry Lavington Brinckman, M.P., who represented
Yarmouth. He married Charlotte, only daughter of D'Arcy Godolphin, son of the 1st Lord
Godolphin, and brother of the 8th Duke of Leeds. Sir Theodore Henry Lavington Brinckman
was created a Baronet, 1834, and allowed by Royal License in 1S42 to resume the family name
of Brinckman. Baron Theodore Brinckman came from Hanover with George I. In
1745 the family had been obliged to assume the name and arms of Broadhead, as on the
death of Henry Broadhead, the last male heir of that family, the Broadhead Estates came
into the possession of the Brinckmans. Ann Bingley, niece of Henry Broadhur.st, married
Theodore Henry Brinckman, vide "Burke" of 1878. Sir Theodore H. L. Brinckman's
eldest son married a daughter of the Marquis of Conyngham.
We now give our promised record of Rear-Admiral George Julius Gordon MacDougall. Rear-
Admiral MacDougall, who was born in 1828, entered the Danish Royal Navy in 1848, and
retired with the rank of Rear-Admiral in 1893. He was highly valued in his profession,
and possessed qualities which called forth the respect and regard of all who knew him. We
here offer a few interesting details concerning him, gathered from a translation of an Obituary
Notice in the " Dagblad " of April 3rd, 1894, kindly sent to us by Mrs. Mac Williams "Rear- :
—
Admiral G. J. Gordon MacDougall was, without doubt, one of the most outstanding men in the
19
!
Danish Navy. Already as a cadet he was remarkable for his nobility of mind, his strong sense
of duty, and his indomitable courage, which he possessed to the day of his death. . . . During
his years of service he was one of the most frequently employed officers of the Fleet. He
saw all the active service possible, commencing his career in command, as a cadet, of a gunboat."
His services are fully detailed in the article, which continues thus: "He devoted the most
arduous study to everything connected with his profession, and was entrusted with nearly all
Rear- Admiral MacDougall commanded the Royal Yacht " Schleswig," which conveyed
Princess Dagmar to Russia, when she came to be married to the Czarevitch, and he repeatedly
held the same command when the Prince and Princess of Wales went from Kiel to Korsor,
and on one occasion the Prince presented him with a ring.
At the time of the war with Commander Colin Campbell Kane, when in
Russia, the late
command of a gunboat in Gordon MacDougall (afterwards Admiral) at
the Baltic, met G.
J.
Copenhagen they claimed kinship, MacDougall telling him that he was a cousin of Admiral
;
Sir John MacDougall of Dunollie. We do not think that these two Admirals, each a repre-
sentative of their respective branches of the MacDougall family, ever met
Admiral G. Gordon MacDougall was created Knight Commander of the Cross of the Order
J.
of the and of the Silver Cross of the Order of the Dannebrog.
Dannebrog, He was
Chevalier de la Legion d'Honneur, and possessed many foreign decorations. He had also
conferred on him the " Medal for Valour," when he saved the life of a sailor from
drowning.
This branch of the MacDougalls are connected in the female line, through the Gordons
with the Batilles of La Croix, also of Santa Cruz. A daughter of this family, Judith by name,
married Sir Robert Grant, Bart., and their eldest son, the late Sir Alexander Grant, was
Principal of Edinburgh University. Vide "Burke," 1878.
We regret that being lately received we have to place it in the " Supplement."
The Inverawe Campbells, or as they are called in old records of the Argyll Clan, " Dhonochie
Campbells," are descended from Sir Neil Campbell and Margaret, daughter of John Cameron
of Lochiel, in the early part of the fourteenth century.
We
commence with Archibald Campbell of Inverawe, Argyllshire. He married and left
two sons and two daughters Duncan, who succeeded him, and Alexander.
: His daughter
Barbara married the third son of Campbell of Jura, who succeeded his father in 1736. Major
Duncan, the eldest, married Jean, the daughter of Colonel Campbell of Monzie and Finab,
Perthshire. Duncan was killed at Ticonderoga with one of his sons. He had four sons and one
daughter ; one of his sens predeceased him, two fell in the same American War as their father.
— ;
Ann became the sole survivor of the family she married Mr. Pitman they had one
thus ; ;
daughter, Ann, who died unmarried. Mrs. Pitman sold Inverawe, in 1762, to her uncle, Colonel
Robert Campbell of Monzie and Finab. On leaving the country she is said to have washed her
hands at Dalmally in a bottle of claret, to show that she had relinquished all territorial
obligations, as was the custom.
Alexander, the second son of Archibald of Inverawe, had two sons : Alexander, who was
the father of the present Alexander Campbell of Auchendarrock, and Duncan, who was the father
of the late James Archibald Campbell, formerly of Tirvine (also known as of Rugby). James was
the representative of the family of Inverawe in the male line; he left a large family. Duncan
left other issue, Edmund Campbell of the 7th Hussars; he married Miss Duchesne, a French
Canadian, a descendant of the family of one of the old French Noblesse, who were given lands in
Canada. Edmund Campbell bought the estate from her brother, and settled in Canada. Jane,
the daughter of Duncan, married Sir Alexander Spearman. Inverawe' is now owned by
Mrs. Jane Campbell of Dunstaffnage, the great grand-daughter of Colonel Robert Campbell of
Monzie and Finab, who bought Inverawe. The house and home farm are life rented by her
mother, Mrs. Campbell of Monzie. Mrs. Campbell, the only child of Sir Ewen Cameron, had
to take her family name of Cameron, she being not only a landed but an heraldic heiress, with
possession of the special coat of arms and Sir John's war medals. The family of Monzie and
Finab are descended from Duncan Campbell of Glenorchy (now Breadalbane) and his wife Jean
Stewart, daughter of the Duke of Athol. To his third son, Archibald, he gave the lands of
Monzie, with others. Archibald was the progenitor of the Campbells of Monzie and Finab.
Alexander, the 9th Laird, was the hero of the Darien Expedition. He was succeeded by his
son, Colonel Robert Campbell, the 10th Laird, half-brother of Jean Campbell, who married
Duncan of Inverawe, as related. General Alexander Campbell succeeded his father as nth
Laird. He commanded the 32nd Regiment. When new colours were given to the regiment the
old colours were presented to his son Alexander, in memory of his father. General A. Campbell
left two sons and one daughter ; the younger, Robert, died unmarried ; both sons served in the
32nd Regiment. Alexander succeeded his father ; he disentailed his lands and sold all save
the property of Inverawe and its islands on Lochawe, which he bequeathed to his youngest
daughter Jane. It is said of him in the "Sporting Review" that he was " reckoned the hardest
rider to hounds and the stiffest walker on the hill." We quote of him the following lines :
" Our Laird, he was aye in the thrang —a gallant like man to see ;
'Twas a weel kent name in the country then, was Campbell of Monzie."
Alexander, as already stated, page 135 "Supplement," married the only child of Sir Ewen
Cameron. Their only son, also one daughter, died in infancy. The eldest daughter, Christina,
was married to Squire Lucy of Charlecotte, Warwickshire ; they have three surviving daughters.
Squire Lucy died in 1891. Louie, the second daughter, was married, first, to Capt. Bonar, R.A.
her second husband was General J. P. W. Campbell (Barcaldine). Mrs. Campbell died in 1887;
she left one son and one daughter. Jane, the youngest, was married, in 1888, to Alexander
Campbell, 19th Captain of Dunstaffnage; they have two sons —Angus John and Neil Alexander ;
and one daughter, Christina Elizabeth Anabella, born 1st June, 1894.
The eldest daughter of Squire Lucy, who is now married, is the present possessor of Charle-
cotte and the representative in the female line of the Lucy family of Warwickshire.
We are indebted to the kindness of Mrs. A. Campbell of Dunstaffnage for these Notes of
Inverawe and Monzie.

shelter and protection ; Inverawe, not knowing the circumstances, gave him the protection he
sought, and promised not to betray him. This vision, which appeared to him at night, implored
him to give up the murderer. Inverawe replied )
" You know I can't, I have pledged my word on
the honour of an Inverawe." The vision left him, saying, " We shall meet again at Ticonderoga
"
(a fortress of the French in America, then unknown in Britain). The vision performed its
promise, and appeared to him the night previous to the attack on Ticonderoga, where Inverawe
and one of his sons fell. This story is gathered from the " Records of Argyll," by Lord A.
Campbell.
