| 251 | Cecilia states that Susanna was the daughter of Archibald Roy Campbell of Calder. However, this is wrong. This citation shows her father as Alexander which conflicts with Cecilia Fabos-Becker's research. http://www.oxforddnb.com/view/printable/70941 Sir Hugh Campbell's eldest son, Sir Alexander Campbell the younger of Cawdor (d. 1697), predeceased his father. After matriculating at King's College, Aberdeen, in 1677, Alexander travelled abroad to France and possibly to Italy.

| 270 | Colin Campbell of Ardmaddie, to whom the fee of the lands and barony of Finlarig were assigned by his father and for which he had a Charter of Confirmation on 23 December, 1681, in which he is styled as the second son by a second marriage. He obtained the lands of Ardmaddie, d. unmarried at London on 31 March, 1708, aged 29 years Also spelled Colin of Armaddy. You may know that the succession is at stake again. One of the two contestants is collecting evidence in support for his claim. He is descending from the 1st Earl's third son Colin of Armaddy from his second marriage with Lady Mary Campbell of Argyll. According to all official records Colin died (unmarried and therefore) without legal issue. On the other hand, if you check the background of the prominent banker First Cashier (same as a CEO today) John Campbell of the Bank (Royal Bank of Scotland that is) and he is without exeption recognized as the 1st Earl's grandson. A second claiment from this lines claims descent from John of the Banks oldest son John. A third claiming the title descends from John 1st earls eldest son Duncan, Lord Ormelie, who was passed over in the succession by the younger brother John, due to weak health (others say due to weak intellect). | Campbell, Colin of Ardmaddie (I3093)

| 282 | Colin Mor is the first Campbell to bear that christian name .... It is quite probable that he took his name from his mother's father. The patronymic name "Mac Cailein Mor" was derived as he added largely to his estates. Active in Scottish Affairs 1281-1296. In 1280 he was nighted by King Alexander III, the early titles were "de Ergadia" and Lords of Lochow. Sir Colin married a lady of the name of Sinclair, by whom he had five sons. From his island stronghold of Innischonnaill or Inchconnell (Innischonnel) he was already effectively dominating Lochawe and its surroundings in the very heart of Argyll. He died, 1294, slain in a fight with the MacDougalls of Lorne at the Red Ford in Lorn and lies buried at nearby Kilchrenan. This death is said to have occasioned bitter feuds betwixt the houses of Lochow and Lorn for a long period of years, which were put to an end to by the marriage of the daughter of the Celtic proprietor of Lorn, with John Stewart of Innermeath about 1386. Cairn marking his death is located on the shore of Lochavich. Also known as Nicholas de Chambelle First recorded Campbell armorial coat of arms. Supported King Alexander III and was knighted by 1280. Date of death is commonly given as 1294, but Sir Colin signed the Ragman Roll in the summer of 1296. See the Summer 2014 Journal of CCSNA for a longer article on Sir Colin. ==================================================================================================== Archie McKerracher writes in Scots Magazine in the "The Battle at the Red Ford (1294)": History's fascination is how tiny events, insignificant in themselves, can change a nation's destiny. The Battle at the Red Ford, for example, was at first sight just a minor clan skirmish in a remote Argyllshire glen. Yet the end result has lasted to this present day. It began in the late 13th century when the MacDougalls were the rising force on Scotland's western seaboard. Their huge fleet of galleys commanded the seas while their castles of Dunollie and Dunstaffnage controlled the mainland. Their name mhic Dhugaill came from Dubh-Gall - Black Strangers, or Norsemen, for their progenitor was Somerled the mighty, son of Gilliebride, sub-king of Argyll, who claimed descent from both Harold Harddrada, King of Norway, and Fergus mor mhic, King of Dalriada. Somerled led an uprising against the Norsemen who ruled the West Coast in the mid-12th century, and removed them from Lochaber, Morvern and north Argyll. But he knew he could not hold his conquest against the might of Viking sea power, and proposed marriage to Ragnhilda, daughter of olaf the Red, Norwegian King of the Isles and of Man. Her father refused, seeking a more suitable suitor. Somerled had his shipwright swim unseen to Olaf's moored galley, bore holes in the hull underwater, and fill them with tallow. When Olaf's galley put to sea the tallow gave way as it rounded Ardnamurchan Point, and the boat began to sink. Somerled's galley was carefully positioned nearby but he refused assistance until Olaf agreed his marriage to Ragnhilda. Thus Somerled gained control of all the western seaboard. Somerled had two sons, Dugall and Reginald. His younger son Reginald inherited Islay, Kintyre and part of Arran, and founded clan Donald. The eldest son Dugall was granted the islands of Mull, Coll, Tiree, Jura and part of Lorn and was the founder of the clan Dougall. He was of mixed Celtic-Norse royal blood and thus the MacDougall coat of arms portrays both the Dalriadic royal lion and the Hebridean royal galley. The third MacDougall chief was Eoghan or Ewen of Argyll, King of the Hebrides and Lord of Lorn (the patronymic Mhic Dhughaill only came into use at a lated date), whom King Alexander III described as "a very comely knight". Ewen was in a difficult position, being a vassal of the King of Scots for his mainland possessions and a vassal of the King of Norway for the Islands. Indeed, his possessions in the Western Isles were still part of Norwegian Archbishopric of Trondheim. He tried to remain loyal both to the decaying Norwegian empire and the expanding Kingdom of mainland Scotland. Ewen refused to join him and Hakon, grudgingly admiring his loyalty to two masters, allowed him to stay. But shortly afterwards, Ewen did make his decision and attacked part of the Viking fleet off mull when it was setting sail south. The Vikings were defeated at the Battle of Largs in Ayrshire in 1263 and this setback signalled the end of Norse domination. MacDougall power was now at its peak for their huge fleet of swift birlinns or galleys, each holding 40 men, effectively controlled the west coast of Scotland. Ewen died in 1265 and was succeeded by Alexander who was "the greatest of the twelve lords" appointed to rule Argyll when it became a shire in 1292. In the year 1294 this all-powerful clan was challenged in its overlordship of Lorn by the irresistible rise of the small clan Duibhne or Diarmid, based around Loch Awe, whose headquarters was a square stone fortification on the islet of Innis Chonnell. They were led by ambitious Caileaan Mor - Big Colin - whose father Gillespic had been nicknamed Cam-beul, from his twisted or wry mouth. Gillespic was perhaps of norman descent, or some say of the Brittonic royal house, and had married Eva O'Duine, heiress of Pol an Sporain O'Duine, the King's Purse Bearer, who held the lands around Loch Awe. Pol O'Duine claimed descent from the Hero Diarmid O'Duine, slayer of the great Boar of Caledon, who was of the royal Houses of Darriada and Pictland. Cailean Mor had been gradually pushing the boundaries of his lands farther west until the exasperated MacDougalls decided enough was enough. Eoin Bacach, Lame John, the strong-willed son of the MacDougall chief, led the clan to war to settle matters once and for all with this upstart young clan. The MacDougalls clad in the raven winged helmets, chain mail, and short swords of their Viking ancestors, carried with them a crystal ball brought back from the Holy Land and renowned for its magical properties. MacDougall of Rarey the Captain of the Clan, halted at the west end of Loch Scammadale and passed the charm around to his men to ascertain who was likely to die. There was considerable muttering and a sort of pass-the-parcel began with each warrior trying to pass the stone on quickly to the next. Eventually, the charm appeared to select three times a certain man who was thereupon sent back to Dunollie with instructions to follow to the coast, and avoid the enemy. He arrived safely, but one cannot escape one's geas for he ran into the Cam-beuls, or Campbells, on his return and was killed. The MacDougalls continued but as they were passing Loch Scaammadale the charm leapt from the sporran of the bearer into the loch. This was taken as such a bad omen that MacDougall of Rarey refused to go any farther and returned home with his men. The probable explanation for this supernatural event was the reluctance of the bearer, who probably flung the charm into the waters himself to avoid the inevitable fight. The depleted MacDougalls in their Viking armour met the Campbells, probably clad in saffron tunics rendered iron hard with fulmars' grease, and armed with bull hide targets and long cross-hilted swords, at the Streing (Pass) of Lorn between Lochs Avich and Scammadale at the allt-a-chomhlachaidh - the Burn of Meeting. The matter of boundaries, and who had the overlordship over the lands of the Cam-beuls, began initially as a discussion between Big Colin and Lame John which degenerated into verbal abuse, and thereafter to war. There was dreadful slaughter on both sides until the burn ran red with the blood which had been shed and the place became known as Ath Dearg, the Red Ford, because one could cross the swollen stream on the bodies of the dead. The outnumbered MacDougalls seemed likely to be cut down to a man until a MacDougall archer crept up beside a large boulder and fired an arrow which killed Cailean Mor. This stopped the battle and Colin's followers sorrowfully bore his body away. The place where Colin fell is still marked by a pile of stones called Carn Cailean, Colin's cairn. Nearby is the burial ground where the dead of both sides were buried but this is now covered by the remains of ancient shielings. Nearby, too, is Tom-a-phiobair - The Piper's Hillock - where a Campbell piper played throughout the battle. He was saddened to see the MacDougall piper fall, and composed a pipe tune in memory of a renowned fellow musician, for amongst pipers there are no boundaries. Mo dhiath! mo dhiath! gun tri lamhan (My loss! My loss! that I have not three hands ) Da laim's a'phiob is lamh's a chlaidheamh. (Two engaged with the pipe and one with the sword. ) Mo dhiath! mo dhiath! gun tri lamhan (My loss! My loss! that I have not three hands, ) Da laim's a'phiob is lamh's a chlaidheamh (Two engaged with the pipe and one with the sword. ) Mo dhiath! mo dhiath! n a shineadh thall ud (My loss! my loss! low lies yonder ) Macdughaill's a'phiob's bu mhin leam sgal orr. (MacDougall with his pipe, whose sound was soft and sweet to me.) Alas, this so greatly angered the departing Campbell clansmen, who realized it was not one of their own tunes, that they chopped off his chanter-playing fingers with a sword. The body of Cailean Mor was carried to the church of St. Peter the Deacon at Kilchrenan on the Loch Awe side and buried there. The exact burial place is unknown but in 1866 the then Duke of Argyll had a 14th century gravestone slab inserted in the gable of the present church of 1771, with a plaque below. The fledgling Clan Campbell came off worst that day in 1294. The MacDougalls confirmed their overlordship over Campbell lands. But the twists of fate are peculiar. The chieftainship of the Campbells passed to Colin's 24 year old son Neil who became the first Mhic Cailean Mhor the son of the great Colin, which became henceforth the patronymic of the Chiefs of the Clan Campbell. He had been educated at the High School of Dundee, where one of his classmates had been a young man from Renfrewshire called William Wallace. ==================================================================================================== Wikipedia has a nice entry and references. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cailean_M%C3%B3r ==================================================================================================== Journal of Medieval Genealogy http://fmg.ac/Projects/MedLands/SCOTTISH%20NOBILITY%20UNTITLED.htm#_Toc389126070 "Colyn Cambel miles filius quondam dni Gylascop Kambel" guaranteed the donation to Newbattle priory made by "dni Willo de Lyndd filio quondam dni David de Lyndd" by charter dated 1293.

| 284 | Colin, 3rd Earl of Argyll, son of Archibald. He was married to Lady Jane Gordon, eldest daughter of Alexander, third Earl of Huntly, they had three sons and a daughter. Their sons were, Archibald, fourth Earl of Argyll; John, ancestor of the Campbells of Lochnell, of which house the Campbells of Balerno, and Stonefield are cadets; and Alexander, dean of Moray. Colin was, immediately after his accession to the earldom, appointed by the council to assemble an army and proceed against Lauchlan Maclean of Dowart, and other Highland chieftains, who had broken out into insurrection, and proclaimed Sir Donald of Lochalsh Lord of the Isles. Owing to the powerful influence of Argyll, the insurgents submitted to the regent, after strong measures had been adopted against them. In 1517 Sir Donald of Lochalsh again appeared in arms, but being deserted by his principle leaders, he effected his escape. Soon after, on his petition also in 1517 Colin was appointed Royal Lieutenant over all the Isles and adjacent mainland by Regent Albany. For some years the Isles remained peaceful and Colin employed this interval in extending his influence among the chiefs and in promoting the sway and importance of his clan, being assisted thereto by his brothers, Sir John Calder of Calder, so designed after his marriage with the heiress, and Archibald Campbell of Skipnish. On the escape of king James V, then in his seventeenth year, from the power of the Douglass, in May 1528, Colin was one of the first to join his majesty at Stirling. He afterwards received an ample confirmation of the hereditary sheriffship of Argleshire and of the offices of justiciary of Scotland and master of the household, by which these offices became hereditary in his family. He had the commission of justice-general of Scotland renewed 25th October 1529. Colin died either in 1535 or in 1530. ========================================================================== ============== At Electric Scotland they write: Colin, third Earl, added to the family territories the lordship of Balquhidder, in Perthshire, the barony of Abernethy, forfeited by the Douglases, and other valuable estates. He obtained the important office of Justice-General of Scotland, which, with the office of Master of the Household, was now made hereditary in his family. He was also appointed Lord-Lieutenant of the Borders and Warden of the Marches. He was a member of the Council of Regency during the minority of James V., and was nominated Lieutenant-General over the Isles, with the most ample powers, which he did not allow to remain unused in his suppression of the formidable rebellion of Macdonald of Lochalsh, the heir of the ancient Lords of the Isles. John, second son of Earl Colin, was ancestor of the Campbells of Lochnellflio have, both in ancient and modern times, stood next in succession to the earldom. | Campbell, Colin 3rd Earl of Argyll (I0067)
|
| 285 | Colin, son of Archibald, 2nd son of Sir Duncan, created Earl of Argyll in 1457, married to Isabel heiress to John Stewart, 3rd Lord of Lorne and thus added part of the lordship of Campbell in the parish of Dollar to his titles. He did not, as is generally stated, acquire by this marriage any part of the lordship of Lorn (which passed to Walter, brother of John, the fourth Lord Innermeath, and heir of entail), but obtained that lordship by exchanging the lands of Baldunning and Innerdunning, etc. in Perthshire, with the said Walter. In 1457 he was by James III. created Earl of Argyll and appointed Royal Lieutenant. In 1470 he was created baron of Lorn, and in 1481 he received a grant of much of Knapdale including the Keepership of Castle Sween or Sweyn, which had previously been held by the Lord of the Isles. Though Chancellor of Scotland, Royal Lieutenant for the West and Master of the King's Household, he readily joined Douglas, Earl of Angus, the Homes and the Hepburns in the plot that led to the slaying of King James III. at Sauchieburn, near Stirling, 1488. In 1484 he kinapped the child heir of the Lordship of the Isles, Donald Dubh after the Battle of Bloody Bay off Mull. He died in 1493. His younger son, Thomas, was the ancestor of the Campbells of Lundie, in Forfarshire. Another daughter was married to Torquil Macleod of the Lewis. ========================================================================== ===================== At Electric Scotland they write: Colin, the grandson of Lord Campbell, was created EARL OF ARGYLL by James II., in 1457. By his marriage to the eldest of the three daughters and co-heiresses of John, Lord Lorne (all three married Campbells), the young Earl put an end to the feuds which for upwards of two hundred and fifty years had raged between the families of Lochaw and Lorne, and obtained the undisputed chieftainship of the county of Argyll. He acquired, in consequence of this connection, the lordship and title of Lorne from Walter Stewart, Lord Lorne and Invermeath, heir male of that lordship, in exchange for the estates of Kildoning, Baldoning, and other lands in the shires of Perth, Fife, Kinross, and Aberdeen.

| 296 | Create Baron Campbell of Loudon on June 30, 1691. Genealogy and notes taken from "History of the Counties of Ayr and Wigtown" by James Paterson, vol 1--Kyle, Edinburgh: 1863 To begin, a discussion of the source of the Killoch Campbells and their relationship to the Loudoun Campbells and Cesnock Campbells. The Campbells of Killoch appear second in the entail executed by Hugh, first Lord LOUDOUN in 1613. Cesnock ranks first, but there appears to be some disention in the matter, which Paterson says documentary evidence does not resolve either. Cesnock was believed to be a more distant branch of the Loudoun family, but mentioned first because he was married to the second daughter of the Master of Loudoun. However Paterson states, " This may possibly have been the case, though we find the assumed progenitors of Cesnock and Killoch so closely co-existent as to lead to the conjecture that their fathers were brothers, or that Cesnock was the origin of both." John CAMPBELL of Shankiston (see previous posts) were placed third in the entail and appears in public documents (1488) about the same time as the Cesnocks and Killochs. Essentially there is doubt as to whether the entail was stylized in the normal way with the closest relative mentioned first. Paterson goes on to say, "Had this been the case, it would have begun with the descendants of Mathew, ancestor of the LAUHDONS of Germany, great grandson of George CAMPBELL of Loudoun, the supposed father of the first Cesnock or Killoch. As Lord Hugh had no prospect of heirs-male from his own body, the calling in the entail may have been, in some measure, the reverse of the usual order of dcouments." ======================================================================================================== Sir Hugh Campbell, Sheriff of Ayr, was created a Lord of Parliament by the title of Lord Campbell of Loudoun, by James VI., in 1601. His granddaughter, Margaret Campbell, who inherited his title and estates, married Sir John Campbell of Lawers, a scion of the Glenorchy or Breadalbane family. ======================================================================================================== Sir Hugh died in December 1622. In 1618, seeing no male issue from his son, who died the year before, he made a deed of entail of his whole property, calling to the succession the following branches of the family, after him-self and heirs-male of his body : George Campbell of Cesnock; Greorge Campbell of Killoch; John Campbell of Shenkistoun; Charles Campbell of Skeldoun; Robert Campbell of Kingancleuch; George Campbell of Ducathall, alias Stevenston ; Mathew Campbell of Barcreochill; Quintigem [sometime called Mungo] Campbell of Cowfauldshaw [later of Netherplace]; Charles Campbell of Horsecleuch; Hugh Campbell of Boigcarroch; and Charles Campbell of Glasnock. His daughter, Margaret Campbell, baroness of Loudoun, succeeded her grandfather in 1622. She married, in 1620, Sir John Campbell of Lawers, of the Breadalbane family and in 1633 he was created Earl of Loudon, Tarrinzean and Mauchline. | Campbell, Sir Hugh 1st Lord of Loudoun (I1638)

| 297 | Crowned King of Scots at Scone on March 25th, 1306. ===================================================== See wikipedia entry .... http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Robert_I_of_Scotland ===================================================== http://www.buccleuch.com/pages/content.asp?PageID=127 Visitors to Drumlanrig Castle are intrigued to find throughout the building, on stonework, carpets, and walls, portrayals of a heart borne on wings. Inevitably, the question is asked: what is the significance of the flying heart and why is it to be seen so often in the Castle? The answer lies in one of the most romantic episodes in the whole of Scottish history. In the early summer of 1329, Robert Bruce, King of Scots, lay dying. He had been ill for some time and not even a pilgrimage in the spring to the shrine of Saint Ninian at Whithorn had eased his pain. Robert had long hoped to go on crusade against the enemies of Christ. He summoned the most powerful men of his kingdom and reminded them of his desire to go, like his grandfather, on crusade. He asked that, after his death, his heart should be taken from his body, embalmed and carried on crusade by some worthy knight. Among those at Bruce's bedside was James Douglas, his closest companion. It was to this remarkable man that the task of carrying out Bruce's wish was given. Robert Bruce died at the age of fifty-four, on June 7 1329. His body was buried with suitable pomp in Dunfermline Abbey close by that of his wife, Elizabeth. His embalmed heart was ready to begin its journey. There was no prospect of going directly to the Holy Land, where there had been no Christian presence since the loss of Acre in 1291, but the infidel could be found in Spain, where Alfonso XI of Castile was about to campaign against the Moors. It is likely that Douglas saw Spain as the first stage of a long journey for he had, we know, allocated seven years to the fulfilment of his promise to Bruce. In the early spring of 1330, Douglas, with companions such as Robert and Walter Logan, William Keith, William Sinclair, and his brother John set sail from Scotland. In a silver and enamel casket on a chain about his neck Douglas carried Bruce's heart. At length, he reached Seville where he was welcomed by Alfonso. Alfonso entrusted to Douglas the command of a division of his army in the campaign against the Moors of Granada. The armies met outside the town of Teba de Ardales. What followed brings us back to the flying heart of Drumlanrig Castle. Douglas, known for his cautious and sensible methods in battle, for once forgot his military principles. He allowed himself to be enticed into a reckless pursuit of a number of fleeing Moors. He had been deceived by a tactic perfected by the Moors and cut off with three of his companions from the main flight. Tradition has it that Douglas, realising that he could not escape, took Bruce's heart from the casket about his neck and flung it ahead of him into the midst of the Moors, crying: "Forward, brave heart, as ever thou were wont to do, and Douglas will follow thee or die". That same tradition tells us that when Douglas' body was found after the battle by his grieving men, it was ringed by dead Moors. Douglas had died in battle fighting with the fierce courage he had always displayed in the service of Robert Bruce. Bruce's heart was brought back to Scotland by William Keith of Galston for burial in Melrose Abbey. Douglas' bones, too, were returned to Scotland by William Keith and placed in the Church of St Bride in Douglasdale. To this day, the motto of the Douglas family, to which the present Duke belongs, is 'Forward", an evocation of that cry by which the most celebrated bearer of the name guaranteed his lasting fame. The story, like Drumlanrig Castle itself, has a beauty of its own. Those visitors who delight in the story as they do in the Castle are convinced that what they have heard is the truth because it is part of the history which Drumlanrig so admirably represents. ===================================================== http://www.rampantscotland.com/know/blknow_heart.htm In 1921, during excavations beneath the Chapter House at Melrose Abbey, a conical leaden casket was discovered. It measured 10 inches high and was 4 inches in diameter at the base but tapering towards the top (see illustration above, right). It was pitted but otherwise in good condition. The casket was reburied but in 1996, it was removed again from beneath the Chapter House floor and examined once more. Historic Scotland said "It is not possible to prove absolutely that it is Bruce's heart. But it is reasonable to assume that it is". On 22 June 1998 it was reburied at Melrose Abbey. On 24 June (the anniversary of Bruce's victory at Bannockburn in 1314) the Scottish Secretary of State unveiled a plaque on the ground at the place where the heart now lies. The design for the stone slab was created by Victoria Oswald a BBC sound engineer. The inscription on the stone, from Barbour's "The Brus" reads "A noble hart may have no ease, gif freedom failye" Translated, this reads "A noble heart cannot be at peace if freedom is lacking" It incorporates a carving of a heart entwined in the Saltire, the basis of Scotland's national flag. | Bruce, Robert the King of Scots (I0027)

| 299 | Daniel Campbell of Shawfield (1670-1753) was the second son of Walter Campbell, Captain of Skipness in Argyllshire. At the age of twenty-two he went to New England and became a successful merchant and shipowner, even though Scots were excluded from the Atlantic trades. On settling in Glasgow he built up a large trade with Sweden in tobacco, which he exchanged for iron ore. He engaged in the slave trade and became an early financier. Closely connected to the Duke of Argyll, he was elected MP for Inveraray in the Scottish Parliament in 1702 and voted for the Union in 1707. A treaty between Scotland and England signed in 1707 stipulated that the taxes on alcohol have to be the same on both sides of the border. In addition, a tax on malts was introduced in Scotland in 1713. This tax existed in England, but was not part of the treaty. This resulted in very violent demonstrations. He bought the estate of Shawfield to the east of Glasgow and built a fine mansion house on the north side of the Trongate. He served as MP for the Glasgow Burghs from 1716 to 1734 and became a figure of considerable importance. According to a contemporary he "far surpassed all his brothers in business capacity". He was nicknamed "Great Daniel" on account of both his size and great wealth. In 1725 he voted for the unpopular tax on malt which had expressly not been extended to Scotland at the Union. With the connivance of the Town Council, the mob attacked and burned his home and 11 people living wiht him were killed during one of this protest actions. Parliament awarded him damages of | Campbell, Daniel of Shawfield (I2685)
