On the ridge betwixt Kilmartin and Craignish, a river, called Allt Atha mhic Mhartein (the River of MacMartin's Ford), takes its rise. Here, a laird of Craignish, returning from visiting Lochow at his castle of Innis Chonail, was overtaken by a, party of MacMartins and forced to fight. The MacMartins were defeated, and their chief, who was Craignish's wife's brother, was killed. Craignish, out of pity, took MacMartin's son and placed him in charge of his brother Duncan Campbell, called MacRath or the Fortunate Son. One day, when the boy had grown up, his foster-father took him to the wood to cut harrow pins, and while resting after their labour the boy began toying with MacRath's dirk. Being asked what he would like to do with the dirk, the boy replied that he would kill the man who killed his father. MacRath, thinking it better to put a probable avenger of MacMartin's death out of the way, stabbed the boy and threw the body into a loch near by, which has since been called Loch Mhic Mhartein. It is said that Duncan MacRath (pronounced MacRa) Campbell, after the commission of this savage deed, fled to the north, and became the progenitor of the fierce MacRaes of Kintail.

153 Andrew and Hugh, the others brothers, went to America and settled near Knoxville, Tennessee-both married. Hugh and his wife died childless. Campbell, Hugh (I5016)
 
154 Andrew McPheeters married Jane Campbell (daughter of John and Elizabeth Walker Campbell). Alexander was a relative of Rev. William McPheeters. Have no record of the children of Andrew and Jane; a complete record of this family is wanted. Rev. William McPheeters was a trustee of Washington and Lee College; also a graduate from same. He was a magistrate in Augusta county.  McPheeters, Andrew (I6840)
 
155 Andrew's first wife died leaving him two sons, William P. and John. William P. married a Miss Nicholson and raised a family of three sons and six daughters in Franklin, Tennessee.

Andrew marrled the second time, Jane Campbell, a kinswoman of Gov. Campbell of Tennessee. They had three children, Arthur,Margaret and Mary.

157 Anne (1700-1783) married a West Indies merchant of London, David Currie (died 1771). ( [27]) David Currie's sons by Anne Campbell of Black River included Colin* (1731-1771), a West Indies merchant, and John (nd) of 10 Billiter Square (nd), a London merchant. One of David Currie's daughters by Anne of Black River was Elizabeth (1726-1807) who married a London ropemaker, alderman John Shakespear (1718-1775), and that connection long later brought other, complicated genealogical connections.  Campbell, Anne (I4065)

159 Apparently the sons Hugh and Claud also died or were without issue as we find Bruce CAMPBELL designated as of Mayfield, Milrig, or of Hillhouse, as he was often styled in the parochial registers. He married Annabella WILSON, daugher of James WILSON of Kilmarnock. Their children were:

1. Hugh
2. Bruce, b. 25 may 1775; died unmarried. Captain E.I C.'s Naval service
3. Alexander. b. 23 Sept 1778, died Oct 1805 of wounds. He was a captain in the 74th regiment and distinguised for bravery. He is mentioned in Welch's "Reminiscences of India" for his bravery at the battle of Assaye. Upon his death the Duke of Wellington wrote a letter to his brother extending high compliments.
4. John, late in Sorn.
5. William, b. 4 May 1788, died Jan 1830

daughters:
1. Euphemia, married her cousin, Hugh WILSON, of Kilmarnock. She died in 1817, leaving a son Hugh CAMPBELL WILSON
2. Mariane, died April 1825, unmarried.

Additionally parish records give three other children: (1) a son, name not given, b. 20 jan 1774, (2) Susanna, b. 23 Sept 1777, and (3) Margaret Boyd, b. 11 Feb 1782

161 Archibald (2nd Earl) of Argyll's appointment as a Royal Lieutenant with vice-regal authority in the West marked a decisive stage in the rise to preeminence of Clan Campbell, who throughout the fifteenth century had steadily and methodically extended their territories and influence in Cowal, in Knapdale, in Lorne and, latterly, at the expense of the Fletchers and MacGregors who had formerly dwelt there, in neighbouring Glenorchy.

During the next twenty years Earl Archibald, who, like his father, held many high offices of state, did everything he could, as Lieutenant of the Isles, to establish the greatest possible measure of control over the Western Highlands and Islands, while at the same time progressively strengthening his own position and that of his clan. With the decline of Clan Donald, the Campbells were to play an ever more important part in Highland affairs, usually, though not invariably, in support of established authority.

At the turn of the century Archibald of Argyll contrived by an unusually clever stratagem to extend his clan's influence deep into northeastern Scotland, far outside its usual sphere of action.

Not many weeks after the death in 1495 of John, Thane of Cawdor, the latter's ancient inheritance passed to his posthumous daughter Muriel. In the ensuing confusion, Archibald, who happened to be Justice General, managed, without too much difficulty, to secure the child's wardship for himself. At the same time he found means of bringing pressure to bear on Muriel's maternal grandfather, Rose of Kilravock, a neighbouring Nairnshire chieftain, who happened at the time to be facing a charge of armed robbery.

Four years after this, in 1499, he sent sixty Campbell clansmen to Cawdor to carry off little Muriel, now a red-haired child of four. According to tradition, she was captured by Sir John Campbell and his party, while out with her nurse near Cawdor castle. Her uncles pursued and overtook the division of the Campbells to whose care she had been intrusted, and would have rescued her but for the presence of mind of Campbell of Inverliver, who, seeing their approach, inverted a large camp kettle as if to conceal her, and commanding his seven sons to defend it to the death, hurried on with his prize. The young men were all slain, and when the Calders lifted up the kettle, no Muriel was there. Meanwhile so much time had been gained that further pursuit was useless. Characteristically, Argyll had foreseen every contingency and, when someone naively suggested that, if Muriel were to die, his carefully laid plan might fall through, his interrogator at once Campbell of Auchinbreck uttered the assurance that, "so long as a red-haired lass could be found in Campbell country", little Muriel would never die.

In fact the true Muriel, whom her mother had prudently branded with a red hot key, while her devoted old nurse had bitten off the end of one of her fingers to make her even more readily identifiable, remained alive and in due course actually married Archibald of Argyll's third son John, who thus became the first Campbell of Cawdor. To this day, his direct descendant, the present Earl of that Ilk, still resides in the fine castle which Muriel's grandfather, the Thane, built for himself in 1454 on the spot, it is said, where a wandering donkey laden with a box of gold had conveniently come to rest under a hawthorn tree, which can still be seen incorporated within the castle building.

162 Archibald 10th Earl of Argyll, was the son of Archibald, 9th Earl. He married Elizabeth, daughter of Sir Lionel Tollmash, by whom he had two sons, the elder being the celebrated Duke of Argyll and Greenwich. On the 21st June 1701 he was created Duke of Argyll, Marquis of Lorn and Kintyre, Earl of Campbell and Cowal, Viscount of Lochow and Glenila, Baron Inverary, Mull, Morvern, and Tiree for his service by William of Orange having played an active part in bringing the Dutch William to the throne. He was one of the commissioners deputed from the Scots Parliament, to offer the crown of Scotland to the Prince, and to tender him the coronation oath. For this and other services, the family estates, which had been forfeited, were restored to him. He was appointed to several important public offices, and in 1696, was made colonel of the Scots horse-guards, afterwards raising a regiment of his own clan, which greatly distinguished itself in Flanders. No less than 2,500 of his clansmen in 1689 occupied Duart Castle, the stronghold of Clan Maclean. He died 28th September 1703.

In Electric Scotland they write:

His eldest son and successor, ARCHIBALD, tenth Earl, and first Duke of Argyll, took refuge in Holland, and accompanied the Prince of Orange to England in 1688. The Revolution, which expelled the Stewarts from the throne, at once reinstated the chief of the Campbells in all his ancestral rights and privileges. The Convention treated as a nullity the sentence which deprived him of his estates and honours. He was selected from the whole body of Scottish nobles to make a tender of the crown of Scotland, and to administer the oath of office, to William and Mary. He was authorised to raise a regiment among his clansmen for the service of the Crown, who were employed under Campbell of Glenlyon in the atrocious massacre of Glencoe, and afterwards served with distinction both in Ireland and Flanders. Although he had been guilty of the crime,

170 Archibald Campbell, of Askomel (abt. 1685 - abt. 1747), acquired Askomel on the 30th of May 1729. He became Chamberlain of Islay in 1732 and died there, being buried at Kilnaughton in the 1740s.

Crest: a galley sails furled pennon flying. Motto: PER TOT DISCRIMINA RERUM. Marriage to Margaret Simson, daughter of Rev. David Simson Campbell, Archibald of Askomel (I7360)
 
171 Archibald was educated under the direction of Mr John Douglas, his father's domestic chaplain, and the first Protestant Archbishop of St Andrews, and distinguished himself as one of the most able among the Lords of the Congregation. In the transactions of their times the earl and his successors took prominent parts.

Archibald 5th Earl of Argyll's followers were of both Clan Donald and Clan Campbell and the host he could bring to the field was larger than the armies of either of his royal contemporaries, Mary Queen of Scots or Queen Elizabeth of England. He alone among Scots and English nobles had artillery.

He had a busy last few months of his life in 1573: he divorced his first wife Lady Jean Stewart on 22nd June, remarried 8th August, and died 12th September.

172 Archibald, 2nd Earl, elder son of Colin, in 1498 King James IV. made him Lieutenant of the Isles, with powers to revoke charters and feudal lands, a position of strength of which Archibald being also Justice-General made the fullest use excepting only the island of Islay, and lands of North and South Kintyre. Some months later, he was appointed keeper of the castle of Tarbert, and bailie and governor of the king's lands in Knapdale. From this period the great power formerly enjoyed by the Earls of Ross, Lords of the Isles, was transferred to the Earls of Argyll and Huntly; the former having the chief rule in the south isles and adjacent coasts. At the fatal battle of Flodden, 9th September 1513, he and his brother-in-law, the Earl of Lennox, commanded the right wing of the royal army, and with King James IV, were both killed. By his wife, Lady Elizabeth Stewart, eldest daughter of John, first Earl of Lennox, he had four sons and five daughters. Archibald, his second son, had a charter of the lands of Skipnish, and the keeping of the castle thereof, 13th August 1511. His family ended in an heir-female in the reign of Mary. Sir John Campbell, the third son, at first styled of Lorn, and afterwards of Calder, married Muriel, daughter and heiress of Sir John Calder of Calder, (now Cawdor), near Nairn. Archibald's daughter Elisabeth was married to Lauchlan Cattanach Maclean of Dowart who later left her on Lady's Rock to drown her ca. 1497 but she escaped and Lachlan was later assasinated by Sir John Calder of Calder.

173 Archibald, third Duke of Argyll, administered Scotland for the British government and did his best to prevent the cruelties of the Duke of Cumberland in 1746. He was educated at the university of Glasgow. He married the daughter of Mr Whitfield, paymaster of marines, but had no issue by her.

In 1705 he became lord high treasurer of Scotland; in 1706 he was one of the commissioners for treating of the Union between Scotland and England; and 19th October of the same year, for his services in that matter, was created Viscount and Earl of Isla. In 1708 he was made an extraordinary lord of session, and after the Union, was chosen one of the sixteen representative peers of Scotland. In 1710 he was appointed justice-general of Scotland, and the following year was called to the privy council. When the rebellion broke out in 1715, he took up arms for the defence of the house of Hanover. By his prudent conduct in the West Highlands, he prevented General Gordon, at the head of three thousand men, from penetrating into the country and raising levies. He afterwards joined his brother, the duke, at Stirling, and was wounded at the battle of Sheriffmuir. In 1725 he was appointed keeper of the privy seal, and in 1734 of the great seal, which office he enjoyed till his death. He excelled in conversation, and besides building a very magnificent seat at Inverary, he collected one of the most valuable private libraries in Great Britain. Archibald succeeded his brother on the latter's death and was president of the court that confined James of the Glen on 21.09.1752 saying he had killed the Red Colin (Cailean Ruadh) Campbell of Glenure. He died suddenly, while sitting in his chair at dinner, April 15, 1761.

175 aria409@msn.com writes: Lady Margaret Stewart and her first husband, John Gordon, were the ancestors of the 5th US President, James Monroe per an internet file. The latter gives the royal connections of all the US Presidents (those that have them). Generally speaking the file gives the descendants of William the Conqueror. Most of the US Presidents with royal connections, were descended from Edward I and Edward III. James Monroe appears to be the President most closely related to royalty as his connection through Lady Margaret (1497) is 150 years LATER than the Edward III descendants (many of whom were from John of Gaunt (or Lancaster) who was born in 1340).  Stewart, Lady Margaret (I3816)

Late in 1778 Lieutenant Colonel Archibald Campbell was dispatched by the British commander in chief in North America, Sir Henry Clinton, to proceed against Savannah. Through his Georgia campaign, particularly his capture of Savannah and Augusta, Campbell achieved one of the few unqualified British successes in the American Revolution.

Baptized at Inveraray, Argyllshire, Scotland, on August 24, 1739, Archibald Campbell was the third son of Elizabeth Fisher and James Campbell, commissary of the Western Isles. He entered the British army as an engineer, and with the outbreak of the Seven Years War (1756-63), participated in 1757 in raids on the French coast, where he "proved himself an able and gallant officer." He also served in the expeditions to capture the Carribbean islands of Guadeloupe, Dominique, Martinique, St. Lucia, and Grenada. As the war escalated, Campbell was posted to North America where he served as a captain in the Seventy-eighth Regiment of Foot, or Fraser's Highlanders, until he was seriously wounded during the capture of Quebec, Canada, in 1759. At the end of the Seven Years War, Fraser's Highlanders were disbanded, Campbell joined the British East India Company.

With the outbreak of revolution in America, Campbell recruited for and received a commission of lieutenant colonel in the Seventy-first (Fraser's) Highlanders. Captured by patriot forces in Boston Harbor on June 16, 1776, he was exchanged for Ethan Allen on May 6, 1778.

On November 8, 1778, Campbell received unexpected orders to take command of 3,000 men sailing the next day from New York to invade Georgia. The expedition captured Savannah in late December. He next led a column into the interior and captured Augusta on January 31, 1779. When Georgia Loyalists failed to appear there, Campbell began a withdrawal on February 14. While awaiting transportation from Savannah to England to marry Amelia, daughter of the artist Allan Ramsey, Archibald Campbell restored the colonial government under his commission as civil governor. Thus Georgia became the only part of the United States ever reduced back to the status of a colony.

Campbell continued his distinguished career. He ended the American Revolution as lieutenant governor and major general in Jamaica (1779-81). In 1782 he was appointed governor of Jamaica. He became a Knight of the Bath in 1785 and served as governor of Madras from 1786 to 1789. Campbell died March 31, 1791, in London and is buried in Westminster Abbey.

178 As mentioned Robert's younger sister Mary Gordon (1792-1835) married Lewis Henry Campbell (1790-1854) at St. Murchin's Church of Ireland in Limerick on 24 May 1815 52. They arrived in Sydney on the Dick in Sept. 1817. Mary's husband was the 48th regiment's school master responsible for educating illiterate soldiers and their children. When discharged he held the rank of Sergeant. He was born in Galway in Ireland and had enlisted on 3 Jul 1805 at Gosport in Hampshire, England, in the 23rd Royal Welsh Fusiliers. At the age of 24 years on the 20 Nov 1814 when the second battalion of the 23rd was disbanded he transferred to the 48th Northamptonshire Regiment. That Robert had a brother-in-law in the 48th likely explains his June 1816 enlistment in that British regiment.

Lewis Campbell took a discharge in Sydney on 3 Jan 1823. Initially he went to work for Robert Crawford, who worked in the Colonial Secretary's Office and had a 1000 acre land grant he named Hill End where the Sydney suburb of Doonside is located today, before on 25 Apr 1825 obtaining employment as a Police Constable at Parramatta a position from which he was dismissed on 20 Oct 1827. He died on 7 Apr 1854 and was buried at St. Batholomew's C of E at Prospect. The couple had six children. Whilst employed by Crawford wife Mary left her husband and entered into a relationship with Crawford. From this defacto relationship she had four more children born from 1826 to 1828. She died on 25 March 1832 aged 34 years and was buried at St John's Parramatta. Three months later Crawford married 1797 born Sarah Jones whose mother Ann Carty had been a Norfolk Island convict who had been was sentanced in England on three counts of shoplifting to transportation beyond the seas for 7 years and in Australia had three relationships the last being with Thomas Jones. Her daughter Sarah Jones was a half-sister to Margaret Murrell (1794-1854) who in July 1812 married Scotland born merchant Robert Campbell Junior (1789-1851) the nephew of the colony's first merchant Robert Campbell (1769-1846)

179 As to the occupation of this Colin Campbell of St. James, he is not listed as the proprietor of any plantation in St. James in 1774, nor in Trelawny in 1776. But surviving copies of the 'Cornwall Chronicle and Jamaica Public Advertiser' (1776-1794) carry advertisements for 'Messrs Thompson & Campbell' at Montego Bay and, more particularly, for 'Colin & Alexander Campbell', merchants at Montego Bay and Martha Brae - the latter town formerly in old St. James.

From an endorsement on the document, it would appear that the gift to Sir Neil had in fact been made, but the matter was placed before the King's Council, who took over the girls' ward and forbade Sir Neil to marry the younger daughter before they had come to a final decision. Sir Neil was in trouble, however, since he had already married the girl. In danger of being held in contempt of the Council, he pleaded that, at the time, she was not under their jurisdiction  Crawford, Alyse (I0090)
 
183 Auchmannoch is in the northern quarter of the parish of Sorn, near the march with Galston.

http://www.e-ayrshire.co.uk/local/sornweb/bess7.html

The Campbells of Auchmannoch were directly descended from the Loudoun family, and the many Campbells settled in Sorn and neighbouring parishes, were evidently of one blood, for they all engaged in the most clannish fashion in the same quarrels (which were the principal recreation of the times), and are mentioned in each other's documents. In matters of religion they seem to have been divided, for while Hew and Robert Campbell of Kingencleugh (in Mauchlne parish), and George and Arthur Campbell of Auchmannoch, were ardent Reformers and Presbyterians, their cousin of Loudoun, Sheriff of Ayr, took his place in the opposite camp, and did not spare even his own kinsfolk when it came to a matter of fulfilling the duties of his office. Thus, when Hew Campbell brought the Reformer Wishart to preach in the kirk of Mauchline, the Sheriff of Ayr, at the request of the Prior, sent his soldiers to prevent him, and as the church was filled with hostile soldiery, Wishart, much to Hew Campbell's chagrin, advised that there should be no fighting, and he preached instead on Mauchline Moor. George Campbell of Auchmannoch was active in the support of the Presbyterian Church during the reign of Charles I., and took the field with General Leslie in 1639. His son, Arthur Campbell, who was retoured heir to his father in 1668, was also engaged in the cause of the Covenant. He was fined by Middleton in 1662, and afterwards was imprisoned in Strathaven. His name is among those of many other Ayrshire gentlemen appended to an address regarding grievances in 1701. The crest of the family is rather a striking one- a double-headed eagle issuing from flames, and looking to the sun, and the motto "I byde my tyme."


Genealogy and notes taken from "History of the Counties of Ayr and Wigtown" by James Paterson, vol 1--Kyle, Edinburgh: 1863

Arthur CAMPBELL of Auchmannoch, on 8 Aug 1565, had a renewed charter from the Commendator of Melrose. His spouse, Margaret CUNINGHAME of Caprington, is mentioned in the charter.

Arthur CAMPBELL of Auchmannoch, married 10 Nov 1606 to Janet CAMPBELL, daughter of John CAMPBELL of Eshawburn. Arthur's retour is dated in 1601. He is mentioned in the will of Robert CRAUFURD, younger of Smiddyshaw in 1616, whose wife's name was Margaret CAMPBELL. George CAMPBELL of Killoch and Arthur CAMPBELL of Auchmannoch, were overseers under the deed. The will of Arthur's wife, Janet CAMPBELL, was recorded in 1622 and mentions children: Arthur, Hew, Agnes, and Janet. Smiddyshaw and Montgarswood were cautioners. This Arthur CAMPBELL was also mentioned in the will of John CAMPBELL, bailie of Mauchline, in 1622.
