404 Duncan 'the Plunderer' Campbell, 6th of Lergnachunzeon (now styled 'of Ashfield')

On 29 October 1684. we find Niall Campbell of Lergnachunzeon receiving from Archibald, Bishop of the Isles, a Precept of Clare Constat of the lands of Lergnachunzeon, etc.
Niall settled his estates two days later on his eldest lawful son, Duncan Campbell, younger, of Lergnachunzeon. Moreover, this settlement had itself a definite object, namely, to enable the said Duncan to in 
Campbell, Duncan 'the Plunderer' (I7155)
 
405 Duncan agreed to be passed over for the title on the grounds of incapacity (weak intellect). It is alleged by some that he married Margaret Campbell of the Lawers family and had issue. If so, following the extinction of the male line of his brother John, any descendants might have a claim on the earldom.

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 earls third son Colin of Armaddy from his second marriage with Lady Mary Campbell of Argyll.

Another one 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).

(Ed. - While 2 contestants may be collecting information now, 3 claiments filed for descendancy in the mid 1800s. See page 186 of Sarah Temple's book. (1) 1863 Charles Campbell of Fortwilliam, (2) 1867 John Campbell, (3) Gavin Campbell.

Duncan Campbell, Lord Ormelie, b. in around 1660 and is stated to have been weak mentally and agreed to be passed over by his father in favour of his younger brother John Campbell to which he granted a Renunciation stating "being resolved and determined not to marry or involve myself in the toyles and troubles of ane active life and the cairs of this world" in 1686. He was placed under the care of Duncan Tocheosh of Monzievaird in whose household he remained for some years as is apparent from extant annual discharges for his keep and is said to have m. Margaret, daughter of Campbell of Lawers, and to have left two sons although this has never been substantiated. He dsp on 5th January and was buried at Finlarig on 8 February, 1727.

406 Duncan Beaton writes:
I have a more accurate genealogy of this Campbell of Barbreck family, copied from a book I found in Glasgow's Mitchell, but at the moment can't find the title of the book. Donald Campbell of Barbreck had two sons (according to this genealogy), Archibald who succeeded to Barbreck and John, of Castlehill in Caithness. Archibald was deprived of his estates in May 1752, for the reasons mentioned in Harvey Johnston. He married Barbara Stewart of Bute and they had 2 sons: James and John. Archibald's brother John of Castlehill (mentioned as a brother german, or full brother) had 2 daughters, Isabel and Janet, and possibly a son Archibald. Janet married James Budge of Toftinghall, and her sister Isabel married her cousin James, who was never "of Barbreck". They apparently had one son, who died abroad, unmarried. Going back to John, brother of James and son of Archibald last "of Barbreck" in this family, as you know he married Elizabeth Hay of Hartfield. They had: Charles, mentioned in Harvey Johnston; & Lionel, who married a daughter of Sir James Campbell of Auchinbreck and died in 1804. The author of this wee book and its genealogy was relating the contents of a letter written by a daughter of Donald Campbell (1751-1804), eldest son of Colonel Charles Campbell, so I assume it to be fairly accurate (unlike Harvey Johnston). A descendant in South Africa has contributed to the Clan Campbell YDNA database.

The book was "A Letter to Mrs. Campbell of Barbreck, containing an account of the Campbells of Barbreck, from their first ancestor to the present time", published 1st January 1830 by Frederick William Campbell.

Campbell, Rev. Duncan of Barnakill (I2375)
 
408 Duncan Campbell had two captains sailing for him, named Somerville, delivering convicts to Virginia or Maryland. They were his nephews, sons of his eldest sister Ann (the first child of principal Neil and Henrietta), or, relatives of her husband John? Campbell, Ann (I4047)
 
409 Duncan Campbell's niece Elizabeth Betham on the Isle of Man married William Bligh on 4 February, 1781. Later, till August 1787, Bligh sailed Campbell's ships on the London-Jamaica run. Thus, Bligh met Fletcher Christian. Both these men, known to history as protagonist-antagonist on Bounty, were ex-employees of the only merchant in London who would sit in 1786, and speak, and profoundly disagree, with Thomas Jefferson.

Born at St. Tudy, near Plymouth, on 9 Sep 1754, he was the son of a customs officer. His mother died when William was 14, but it was very early when his parents had decided on as Naval career for their young son. He first appears on Naval roles at the age of 9, when, at the behest of Hon. Keith Stewart, said to have been a close relative of his mother, he was entered as a personal servant to an officer on a man-of-war. This was a common practice, even at that age, in order to give young boys who were destined for a Naval career the
necessary 6 years qualification as early as possible. He was "paid off" on 21 Feb 1763.

By the age of 15, he was not only well-versed in science and mathematics, but had developed fine talents as a writer and illustrator. He does not appear in the records again until 27 Jul 1770, when his name was entered on the paysheets of the H.M.S. Hunter, a small sloop mounting only 10 guns, rated as an AB and master's mate. This was soon after the death of his mother and the remarriage of his father, and these event may have had something to do with Bligh's re-entry into the Navy. It is believed that, in accord with normal custom, he was carried as an "additional midshipman", that is, a young man deserving of officer's training, but carried in addition to the two
official midshipman's positions on a naval vessel. They were officially recognized as junior officers in training, both by respect of crew and duties assigned. They also became official midshipmen as soon as vacancies occurred. On 4 Feb 1771, he was discharged by order of Rear Admiral Sir Richard Spry, and re-entered the next day on the same ship as a midshipman. He remained on that ship until 22 Feb 1771, when he was reassigned to H.M.S. Crescent whereon he served until 23 Aug 1774. He then served on H.M.S. Ranger. It was on 20 Mar 1776 that he received what was to be his first opportunity to visit the South Seas, when he was appointed Master on board H.M.S. Resolution, commanded by Capt. James Cook, just prior to Cook's third voyage. At 22, to be appointed sailing master on a major research vessel was a great tribute to his skill and connections. There is evidence that he was in constant attendance on this ship, and in consultation with Cook and his officers constantly. On 1 May 1776, he passed his examination for Lieutenant. The voyage of the Resolution ended in late 1780, and Bligh took a 12-month leave from active duty, during which time he was married. Although little is known of his activities during this period, there is some indication that he may have spent time writing memoires of the famous voyage.

His wife's relationship to Sir Duncan and Captain Sir John Campbell paved the way to additional career-enhancing appointments. After serving on a number of ships, in Jun 1783, he entered the service of Sir Duncan Campbell in the West Indian trade. The pay of a junior lieutenant often demanded occasional forays into higher-paying positions, and this appears to have been the case here. It was in the service of Campbell that Bligh commanded his first ship, the Lynx. He remained in the Jamaica trade for four years, his last assignment on board the Brittania, where he was to meet Fletcher Christian an others who were to sail with him on the Bounty.

After the Bounty voyage, Bligh commanded a number of scientific voyages. Specialization in scientific projects paid off, and he became a Fellow of the Royal Society. Late in 1796, he was appointed commander of H.M.S. Director, a comparatively old ship, but a very important naval command. It was rated 4th class, mounted 64 guns, and carried 491 crewmen. This marked Bligh's promotion to senior command assigment. It is also interesting that in 1797, Bligh was involved in another serious mutiny, known as the Mutiny at the Nore. The crews of a number of naval vessels, including the Director, under the command of Vice-Admiral Buckner, mutinied together. It was a bloody and
violent struggle. At its conclusion, Bligh stood strongly behind his ship's crew, and was commended by both seaman and officer alike for his handling of the affair.

His naval career was distinguished. Brave in battle, he was line astern of Nelson at Copenhagen in 1801. The wartime period ended in 1802, and Bligh again commanded a scientific voyage, this time a hydrological expedition. In 1805, he was appointed Governor of New South Wales. His success in the realm of politics, unfortunately, did not match his prowess as a Naval commander. His appointment lasted until 1808 when the colonists "mutinied" and sent him back to England. He arrived there on 25 Oct 1810, and never received further appointment. His service record was as follows:

William Bligh does not deserve his popular reputation as a cruel villain. He could better be described as a "young turk ... a man moving in the fast lane". He evidenced early brilliance matched with the right connections. His perfectionism carried him far, but also led to most of his problems. He could not emotionally understand or deal well with persons who did not share his devotion to duty and detail. He was uncommonly concerned with the physical health of his men, and contrary to popular misconceptions, he was slow to impose corporal punishment. But he could, and did, impose fearful tongue-lashings, and his temper was legendary. These were not traits that would
endear him to the violent, street-smart members of the lower classes who made up the bulk of the crews over which he served. Like many of today's corporate executives, he almost, but not quite, reached the pinnacle of his profession. He is a man deserving of admiration.

417 Duncan while probably still a boy was ousted by his uncle John Campbell on the untimely death of Donald at the Battle of Flodden, 1513. He grew up at Ashfield., and never returned to Duntroon Castle, which passed to his junior cousin Duncan, son of John, in 1560 with little or no protest. The powerful laird of Ardkinglass may have had a hand in this.

419 Dunoon Castle was captured from Balliol in 1334 by Robert Stewart and by Sir Colin Campbell of Lochawe or Dougall Campbell - accounts differ. It was thereafter held by a variety of constables until 1460/1 when Colin, 1st Earl of Argyll received a liferent of the castle lands in return for garrisoning it and keeping it in good repair. In 1473 he received a charter giving him the hereditary custody of the castle with the power to appoint constables. In 1550, Archibald, Master of Argyll, later the 5th Earl, granted the keepership of the castle together with the twenty seven merklands that went with it to Colin Campbell of Ardkinglas for the service of two boats. In 1571 , Archibald, by then 5th Earl, granted the castle acre and the office of Baillie to Archibald Campbell, a cadet of the Ardkinglas family, as Captain of the Castle of Dunoon. From him descended the Campbells of Innellan and Dunoon. Campbell, Archibald of Dunoon (I2566)

421 EARL OF LOUDOUN, and Baron Tarrynean and Mauchline by Charles I., 12th May, 1633; but in consequence of his opposition to the measures of the Court, the patent was stopped at the Chancery, and the title was suspended until 1641. Following the lead of the chief of his house, the Earl took an active part in the opposition to the attempt of Charles I. to force the new Liturgy upon Scotland, and was a member of the celebrated General Assembly which met in Glasgow in 1638. In the following year he took and garrisoned the castles of Strathavon, Douglas, and Tantallon for the Covenanters. He was one of the seven Scottish noblemen who signed the letter addressed to the King of France, entreating his assistance, and was in consequence arrested on a charge of treason and committed to the Tower. He regained his liberty through the influence of the Marquis of Hamilton, and was permitted to return to Scotland. He became one of the most active leaders of the Covenanting party, commanded the van of their army at the battle of Newburn, and was one of the commissioners who negotiated the treaty of Ripon. He presided at the opening of the Scottish Parliament, 15th July, 1641, and when the King visited Scotland in the following month Loudoun Campbell, Sir John 1st Earl of Lawers (I1648)
 
422 Earldom granted by his cousin King David II between 1329 and 1333. This was the first peerage title granted to a Campbell.

Noble. The son of Sir Niall Campbell of Lochawe (or Lochow) and Lady Mary Bruce, the sister of Robert the Bruce (1274 - 1329). Campbell built the Black Castle of Moulin as his home in the 1320s and was created Earl of Atholl c.1330 by King David II. Around the same time he married Joan, daughter of Sir John Menteith of Rusky.

He was killed at the Battle of Halidon Hill on the 19th July 1333, leaving no heir and his earldom ceased.

The ancient Earldom of Atholl was part of the Crown lands of Scotland. The male line of the Celtic Earls of that title came to an end in the 13th century, but the Earldom was carried on in the female line for some generations longer.
David de Strabogie, the nth Earl, having withdrawn his allegiance from King Robert Bruce, was outlawed in 1327, and his estates forfeited. After this the title was first granted to Sir John Campbell of Moulin, who was killed at Hallidon Hill, 1333, and next to William Douglas, Lord of Liddisdale, who having also no male issue, gave a charter, dated 16th February 1341, of his title of the Earldom of Atholl to Robert, High Steward of Scotland, afterwards King Robert H. Robert, Steward of Scotland, granted a charter of the Thanage of Glen Tilt, a translation of which is here given :

An annuity of  
Campbell, Dugald (I4078)
 
425 Eldest son of Sir Calein Mor. In the record of the parliament of Robert the Bruce held in 1320, the name of the then head of the family, entered as Sir Nigel de Campo Bello. He first swore fealty to Edward I, but afterwards joined Robert the Bruce and married his sister Mary Bruce. By his wife Sir Neil had three sons - Sir Colin, John and Dugal. Neil was appointed Constable of the Royal Castle of Dunoon on the Clyde in Cowal. To his family went many of the lands in Perthshire which had formerly belonged to to David de Strathbogie, 11th Earl of Atholl, whose title was bestowed on Neil's 2nd son, John Campbell. Sir Neil's widow was married to Sir Alexander Fraser, Chamberlain of Scotland under Robert the Bruce. Sir Neil's next brother Donald was the progenitor of the Campbells of Loudon.

Neil probaby didn't marry Margaret de Multon.

===================================================================================================

Archie McKerracher writes in Scots Magazine in the "The Battle at the Red Ford (1294)" (Continued from father's notes):

With Colin's death, 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 (Braveheart).

In 1297 Wallace came to him seeking assistance. He had joined an uprising against English domination and led an army of common people. Would Neil join him? A deal was struck that Wallace would first of all help Neil recover his lands and then Neil would assist him. The MacDougalls were pushed back and the Campbells joined Wallace for the decisive battle of Stirling Bridge. But then came Fallkirk and Wallace's defeat and the English regained domination. Neil Campbell was forced into hiding, and his small clan was scattered.

Eight years later, Robert the Bruce killed the Red Comyn in Dumfries' Greyfriars Monastery and thus began the final chapter in the long War of Independence. It so happened the Red Comyn was the nephew of Alexander of Argyll, Lord of Lorn, the 4th MacDougall chief, who had no option but to join a blood feud, and threw the entire might of the MacDougalls against Bruce, almost capturing him at Dalrigh near Tyndrum. In Scotland kith and kin always ranked higher than politics.

Neil Campbell promptly called out his clan to support the cause of Robert the Bruce. It must be said the Campbells would probably have chosen whoever was on the opposite side to the MacDougalls.

Clan Campbell and Bruce's army fell upon the MacDougalls at the Pass of Brander near Taynuilt in the autumn of 1308, and annihilated them. The burial cairns of the dead can be seen across the River Awe hydroelectric barrage. Sir Alexander of Lorn reluctantly gave allegiance to Bruce although his Comyn wife glared her hatred. They were exiled to Gylen Castle on the island of Kerrera. Their son, Lame John, escaped and renewed his allegiance to Edward II, and in 1311 was created English Admiral of the Western Seas.

After the Battle of Bannochburn the MacDougalls forfeited most of their mainland possessions which were granted to Sir Neil Campbell, although it was not until 1318 that Lame John MacDougall and his galleys were finally destroyed by combined fleets of King Robert and Angus Og MacDonald of Islay.

Neil Campbell married Marjory Bruce, the king's sister, setting aside his first wife to do so, and so began Clan Campbell's inexorable and irrresistible rise to overlordship of Argyll and the western seaboard and at one point of Scotland itself.

But as I have already said, the twists of history are peculiar. Supposing instead the MacDougalls had sided with Wallace and Bruce as did their kin clan the MacDonalds, and the small clan Campbell, nurturing its hatred against them, had thrown in its lot with the Comyns and the English, and thereby had been extinguished to become simply a mention in some ancient record.

Today, tourists might flock to visit magnificent Dunollie Castle in Oban, instead of Inverary, and be greeted by mhic Dhughaill, the Duke of Lorn. The MacDougalls and the MacDonalds might have formed a Celtic power bloc on the West Coast, stretching from Mull of Kintyre to the tip of Harris, so powerful as to alter history. We can only guess. Perhaps no Flodden; perhaps no bigoted religious civil wars of the 17th century; perhaps no Massacre of Glencoe; perhaps no Culloden.

That's why I believe the Battle at the Red Ford at the String of Lorn, insignificant as it was at the time, probably altered Scotland's destiny, and the history of the United Kingdom.

448 First Campbell to settle in Jamaica. This family is documented in an Internet book called the Blackheath Connection by Dan Byrnes (http://www.danbyrnes.com.au/blackheath/thebc1.htm)

This family is also extensively documented in volume 3, History of Clan Campbell.

Colonel John Campbell of Black River, south western Jamaica, died in 1740 on Jamaica. John Black River was the patriarch of the first Campbells who settled on Jamaica. He was born in 1673, the son of Rev. Patrick Campbell (1631-33-1700) (of Glenary, Torblaren) and Jean Campbell. ( [3]) This Jean was possibly the mother of Neil by a liason prior to her marriage to Rev. Patrick. In the 1690s, Colonel John became part of the military units of the ill-fated Scottish Darien Company; possibly with the first of the three major Darien Company expeditions. After that company's activities failed, John raged that England had saboutaged the Darien Company, that he would have no part of a Scotland which might unite with England. He stayed on Jamaica as a planter.

Col. John Campbell, Member of Assembly Westmoreland 1711, MC 1722, died 1740 aged 66 years. Interred in St Elizabeth, the inscription reading:

"Here lies the Hon. John Campbell, born at Inverary, Argyllshire, North Britain, and descended of the Ancient family of Auchenbrock, when a youth he served several campaigns in Flanders. He went as Captain of the Troops sent to Darien and on his return to this Island, in 1700, he married the daughter of Col. Claiborne by whom he had several children. In 1718 he married Elizabeth (now alive) relict of Col. ?Garnes. He was for many years Member of the Assembly, Colonel and Custos of St Elizabeth. In 1722 he was made one of the Privy Council. He was the first Campbell who settled in this Island, and thro' his extream generosity and assistance, many are now possessed of opulent fortunes. His temperance and great humanity have always been very remarkable. He died January 29, 1740. Aged 66 years. Universally lamented."

Of Colonel John's own children, we know he had a son William (no other information), a son, Hon. Colin who married Margaret Foster and had a son John, who was later owner of the property, Hodges. This Colin is presumably the Colin Campbell who on 22 August, 1757, from Westmoreland, Jamaica, wrote to his cousin James Campbell of Kaims, re "Cousin John of Black River left Jamaica on 18 April 1756 for N. America... owing to a bad state of health"... and Colin had been left in charge of his affairs. Meantime, nothing could be done with an unnamed ship and Collin's share in it. But evidently, "Cousin Duncan proposes to sell her [the ship] on getting home". Colin also mentioned "Cousin Saltspring" and "Distiller Dugald proposes a trip home. He's now worth very nigh
