Due to his pilgrimage to Rome he was known as Colin dubh na Rhoime. Known as the "Black Colin", 'Sir Calein Dubh'. Was a crusader. Died 24/9/1489, Strathfillan, Perthshire, and buried 26/9/1489, Kilmartin, Argyllshire. Was given the lands and lordship of Glenorchy in 1432 by his father who had taken them from the MacGregors. Aquired Glenlyon from the Stewarts of Garth by force of arms. Made a pilgrimage to Rome, during which he was known as Colin dubh na Rhoime. Began construction of Kilchurn Castle about 1440 with the central keep. A charter in 1449 refers to the `apud castrum de Glenurquhay', so by that date Colin had built some form of castle on the site. The castle lies on the tip of a small peninsula at the north side of Loch Awe, originally an island, but the water level has dropped since then. Kilchurn was occupied by the Campbell's until 1740; it is now a ruin. Lairds of Glenorchy, subsequent to Colin, have added to the castle, most notably in 1693. Laird of Glenorchy. 1st Earl of Glenorchy and Baronet of Lawers. Through his second marriage Colin inherited 1/3rd of the estate of Lorn. Was guardian of his nephew, Colin, the future Earl of Argyll, and also his future brother in law (his nephew married a sister of Colin's second wife).

James received the land from his father, Sir Hugh Campbell, who built the mansion." [If this statement is accurate, then the Campbells of Treesbank are a cadet line of the Campbells of Cessnock (and Loudoun) and not of Strachur as hypothesized in G. Harvey Johston. - Kevin Campbell] James Campbell married Jean Mure, daughter of Sir William Mure of Rowallan. The marriage contract is dated 16 Dec 1672. Known children were: (1) George, his heir, (2) Anne, who married a Cunninghame and who had a son George Augustus Cunninghame, an army surgeon, and (3) Mary, who died unmarried in 1752 at an advanced age. James Campbell was alive in 1730, being then above 90 years of age.

| 464 | From James Patterson's, History of the Counties of Ayr and Wigton, vol. 1 Kyle, 1863. However, it was a John CAMPBELL who succeeded his mother, Elizabeth. He appears in various wills from 1602 to April 1613 and occurs again in 1624. In 1627 he was named heir to his mother and in 1636 served as heir to his grandfather. On 19 July 1634, John CAMPBELL of Kinzeancleuche had a charter of the lands of Ballochbrok, Drumlongford, etc. Next Paterson says that it would appear that the name of Robert in the entail in 1613 was a misnomer......... Additionally in 1625 Charles CAMPBELL in Kinzeancleuche appears in the Commissariot records and may have been a brother of John Campbell. | Campbell, John in Kinzeancleuche (I3991)

| 466 | From James Patterson's, History of the Counties of Ayr and Wigton, vol. 1 Kyle, 1863: Elizabeth CAMPBELL of Kinzeancleuche served heir to her father in 1586. Paterson discusses the identity of the Robert CAMPBELL of Kinzeancleuch mentioned in Loudoun's entail. Robertson (another genealogist) believes it was Elizabeth's husband, but Paterson believes that Elizabeth was in her 50s at the time the entail was written and that the Robert CAMBPELL mentioned there was more likely her son, but he has no proof. | Campbell, Elizabeth of Kinzeancleuche (I3992)
|
| 467 | From James Patterson's, History of the Counties of Ayr and Wigton, vol. 1 Kyle, 1863: He was succeeded by Robert CAMPBELL of Kinzeancleuche who was a close friend of Knox and who was with Knox in his last illness. In other documents he appears: (1) on a list of absentees from the assize on the "Lairds of Lochnorris and Ekles (14 Nov 1544), (2) cautioner in 1559 for John WILLOK, who was denounced as a rebel for usurping the right of the church, (3) in 1566 (?) he was surety for William JOHNSTONE, bower, burgess of Edinburgh who was one of many suspicioned in the murder of David Riccio. Robert CAMPBELL's wife was Elizabeth CAMPBELL of Cesnock. Robert CAMPBELL died in 1574, leaving only a daughter. Robert Campbell of Kinzeancleugh, was a zealous friend of John Knox and a devoted promoter of the Reformation Robert Campbell of Kinzeancleuche, his cautioner, was at the same time fined. This was the second time Willock had ventured upon a preeching tour in Scotland, on both of which occasions he found a warm reception amongst the Reformers of Ayrshire, by the more poerful of whom the reforming preach were protected and supported. In 1556, Knox r preached in the houses of Bar, Kinzesncleuche, Camell [Cairnhill], Ochiltree, and Gadgirth, and in the town of Ayr." Campbell of Kinzeancleuche, if not possessed of equal means with such of the Protestant barons as the good Earl of Glencairn " could not be for zeal in the cause.

|
| 468 | From James Patterson's, History of the Counties of Ayr and Wigton, vol. 1 Kyle, 1863: This is another branch of the Loudoun family. It stood fifth in the deed of entail that was discussed under the Killoch Campbells. The first of this line is believed by Paterson to have been a son of Sir George Campbell of Loudoun, born about the end of the 15th century: This is the Hew CAMPBELL of Kinzeancleuche mentioned by Knox in his History of the Reformation, who was offended by those who held the kirk of Mauchline so that Wishart could not enter (1544). ======================================================================================================== SORN PARISH It's History and Associations By Helen Steven 1898 (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." ======================================================================================================== Mauchline Its History And Associations By H J Steven 1897 Retyped By Irene McKenzie 2003 (http://www.e-ayrshire.co.uk/local/sornweb/mauchline_its_history_and_associations.pdf) Reformers. Hew of Kingeancleuch was related to Hugh of Loudoun, who had such a long eye to the future, and who had sworn to defend the "Rev. Fader and Convent in ye said lands against all quhatsoever, ye sovereign alane excepted. On the Sunday in question, Wishart appeared before the parish church, but only to find the doors locked. The Prior had communicated with the Sheriff of Ayr, and the Sheriff came with an armed force at his back to emphasize the refusal to allow Wishart to preach in the Church. Kingencleuch and others were amazed at what they considered the impiety of the soldiery who had taken possession of the church, and they thought of entering the building by force, but Wishart answered their invectives with words beautiful in spirit and admirable in moderation. "Brethren," said Wishart, "it is the word of peace which I preach unto you; the blood of no man shall be shed for it this day. Jesus Christ is as mighty in the fields as in the church; and He Himself, while he lived in the flesh, preached oftener in the desert and upon the seaside than in the Temple of Jerusalem." The people were appeased and went with Wishart to Mauchline Moor, and there he preached to them with much acceptance for three hours. Wishart remained for a month at that time in the neighbourhood. In 1556 no less a personage than John Knox visited Mauchline, and preached in Kingencleuch Castle during his tour of the western shires. We thus see that in Kyle the people were familiar with the doctrines of the Reformers, and in Mauchline they were ready in a body to embrace them whenever they became the recognised teaching of a Reformed Church. It is also possible that even in a quiet country town the priesthood had degenerated so much that the people looked on it no longer with reverence, but longed for a purer exposition of religion. | Campbell, Hugh of Kinzeancleuche (I3995)

| 469 | From Pilcher ... Hugh Campbell's importation was proved June 26, 1740, with his wife, Esther, and two daughters; his will was made in 1771, and probated March 22, 1775, with John Magill one of his executors. The law required emigrants to prove their importation at their own charges, in order to purchase government lands at low rates. All "Importations" mentioned are understood to be "at their own charges." Hugh Campbell, in 1749, was also the executor of the will of William Magill, father of John, and Charles Campbell, brother of Hugh, was a witness. William Magill's land joined that of Charles Campbell, about five miles northeast of "Beverly's Mill Place," now called Staunton, Va. Children of Hugh: William, Hugh, Charles, Robert, Esther, Sarah and Martha. No further record of this family, except to say that Robert's three sons lived within the bounds of Augusta (Old Stone) Church, which was about three miles north from the residence of Charles.

| 475 | From the Blackheath Book by David Byrnes: (http://www.danbyrnes.com.au/blackheath/thebc2.htm) "Neil Campbell (circa 1678-1761) of the College of Glasgow (1728-1761), which university of course contributed many talented Scotsmen to the service of the British Empire, and/or, to less formally Imperialistic areas of endeavour. Principal Neil's paternity remains an intractable genealogical problem. Luckily, Neil's wife Henrietta has a coherent lineage. Information on Neil's known Australian descendants (stemming from only one of the hulks overseer's sons, "Duncan Jnr.") stops at 1938 in mid-north Queensland, at Almaden, inland from Cairns. Here, little is known also about an ex-Sydney civil engineer, William Dugald Campbell (1848-1938), who was buried at Chillagoe Cemetery, Queensland. Neil's uncle was Colonel John Campbell of Black River, Jamaica (?-1740), "the first Campbell on Jamaica", and therefore, conspicuous. Colonel John Campbell (or, John Black River as I shall call him) was a military employee of the Scottish Darien Company, which is just one factor requiring the historian of just one Campbell family to delve deeper into the late seventeenth century." ================================================================================================== David Rathoon writes (davidarathoonstudio@sympatico.ca) Neil Campbell was born of 'mysterious circumstances',...His mother was a Jean Campbell and no one seems sure of his father... some say an executed Earl of Argyll, or Earl's son. Neil's dates are 1678-1761, he was Dr of Divinity, U of Glasgow...he was raised by his uncle for a good bit; John Campbell and Jean Campbell." While allegations persist about a blood-connection with the first Dukes of Argyll. Absurdly, so far, it can only be said that Principal Neil came from a cloud of anonymity named Clan Campbell. Where to go from here? ================================================================================================== The son Duncan born to Principal Neil and his wife Henrietta on 5 January 1726, was possibly named for his mother's brother. (Duncan means "brown warrior" and Campbell means "wry mouth"). He was baptized on 9 January at Renfrew, where his brother Colin was later to be minister. Patrick, Henrietta's eldest son, was born on 6 December, 1713. Patrick matriculated at 14, then obtained his BA, but he died on Jamaica in 1737 aged 24, a medical student. By then, Duncan was only eleven, due to matriculate in two years. (All Duncan's brothers matriculated at the College of Glasgow). Archibald became a marine and served in the North British Fuseliers; he may have seen military service during the suppression of the rising of 1745? Colin became a reverend. Neil became an ordnance survey clerk at the Arsenal at Woolwich, London, where he would have seen behind-the-scenes as Britain fought the American colonies from 1776. ================================================================================================== It is possible that Jean of Pennymore was the mother of Neil Campbell, Principal of Glasgow with a Campbell of Clenary (possibly a Major John Campbell). She and Rev Patrick raised Neil none the less. Marion of Kilberry suggests he is a child of some lesser member of Jean's family. Principal Neil was born 1675/76 Glenaray and died 22 Jun 1761 Glasgow. I found a printed transcript of the burials of Neil and Henritta in Glasgow, and they read as follows: -Neil Campbell, Principal, buried Blackfriars Churchyard,25 June 1761.Age 85.Cause of Death - aged. -Henrietta Campbell, widow of Neil Campbell, buried Blackfriars Churchyard,26 December 1764.Age 65.Cause of Death - fever. The age for Henrietta is obviously wrong - 75 would be more accurate - but it is possibly someone just mis-reading the original entry for the printed volume. The age for Neil, presumably supplied by his widow is interesting, as it would make Neil's birthyear as 1675 or 6,and not 1678 as is quoted elsewhere (I wonder where that date came from?). The Blackfriars Church and Churchyard, incidentally, lay beside the Old College of Glasgow. Like the College, they were swept away during the civic improvements of the mid 19th century, and all the burials re-interred elsewhere. ================================================================================================== Raymonf Cook writes with a theory on Dr. Neil's ancestry.

| 476 | From the CCSNA web site - The Campbells of Succoth and Crarae were possibly, like those of Dunoon and Carrick before them, a branch of the kindred of freckled Ian of Ardkinglas. http://www.baronage.co.uk/bphtm-03/campbe01.html states "The Campbells of Succoth claim descent from a cadet of the Campbells of Barbreck". Specifically, it is suggested that this line descends from John Campbell (#421) son of Sir Colin "Iongantach" Campbell. Electric Scotland states: The second son of Sir Colin, the hero of Dunoon, had become ancestor of the families of Barbreck and Succoth.

| 477 | From the Clan Mac Farlane Web Site: Donald Campbell of Duntroon and 1st of Lergnachunzeon (Ashfield) was a witness to a sasine from Earl Archibald in favour of Alexander Campbell of Inverlevir on 28 May 1496 ; and precept of sasine from the same Earl in favour of his natural son, Archibald Campbell of Skipnish, dated 30 July 1511, was directed to Donald Campbell of " Downtron " and others. Tradition says this laird fell at Flodden, which is likely to be true, seeing that he was no longer living two months after that battle.

|
| 478 | From the Clan MacFarlane web site: " Donaldus Oig Campbell apparens de Duntrwyn," witnessed a charter at Inveryne 26 April 1588 ; which Donald is styled fiar of Duntroon and son of John Campbell of Duntroon on 31 July 1605, though I think that John was then dead, since Donald is called "of Duntroon" on 11 January 1602/3, when a complaint was lodged against him and other lawless individuals for having made a raid into Bute on 19 November previously. Ten years later (22 December 1612) he was fined 3,000 merks for resetting the MacGregors, the fine being paid 13 September 1621 by Donald Campbell of Oive (Oib) and Donald Maclachlan of Kilonewchanache. The last mention I have of him is on 5 April 1630, when he witnessed a charter at Finlarig by Sir Duncan Campbell of Glenorchy in favour of John Macdougall of Regray. His successor, Duncan Campbell, is proved to be Donald's son, since he witnessed a sasine at Ormaig 30 March 1619 as " apparent of Duntroon." | Campbell, Donald 8th of Duntroon (I1438)
|
| 479 | From the Clan MacFarlane web site: Birth date estimated from Clan MacFarlane web site (originally from LDS). John Campbell of Duntroon, with six other baillies, received a precept of sasine, on 17 December 1470, from Colin Earl of Argyll in favour of Colin Campbell of Glenorchy, ancestor of the Marquess of Breadalbane. [The Campbells of Duntroon by Herbert Campbell pub.1913] | Campbell, John (Iain) 3rd of Duntroon (I1428)
|
| 480 | From the Clan MacFarlane web site: There is an undated document in the Lyon Office at Edinburgh that gives the history of the succession to Duntroon at this; point; and is quoted as reported by Lyon King of Arms. Its date must have been somewhere about the commencement of the eighteenth century "To Duncan Campbell of Duntrune succeeded Neil Campbell of Duntrune his son : to the said Neil succeeded Patrick Campbell of Duntrune his brother, and to the said Patrick succeeded John Campbell of Duntrune his son : in whose time Neil Campbell his remote relation bought debts and old apprisings against the estate and by virtue thereof possessed the same: and he having died without children he disponed the same to Patrick Campbell of Oib who at present possesses the lands and estate of Duntrune." Patrick Campbell of Duntroon occurs, together with his wife, Margaret Campbell, his eldest son, John Campbell, and ,John's wife, Margaret,, daughter of Alexander Campbell of Inverlevir, on 5 December 1659, and again with his three sons, John, Alexander and Donald, in a charter by which, on 15 November of that year, he granted Raschoille to the said Alexander (who is styled Patrick's second son) and his heirs male, with remainder to the said Donald, Alexander's " younger brother german." From this Alexander Campbell of Raschoille descend the Campbells of Raschoille. Besides his elder brother and predecessor, Niall Campbell of Duntroon, Patrick had a younger brother, Colin, whose daughter, Anna, wife of Hugh McCallum in Kilmartin, is mentioned on 5 September 1665 in a document where Patrick Campbell of Duntroon is stated to be her uncle. [The Campbells of Duntroon by Herbert Campbell pub.1913] | Campbell, Patrick 11th of Duntroon (I6248)
|
| 481 | From the Clan MacFarlane web: Birth date estimated from Clan MacFarlane web site (originally from LDS). LDS Medieval Families Unit shows him as son of Donald his brother assuming lineal succession, although their DOB puts him in same generation as his brother. John Campbell of " Duntrone " witnessed sasines on 13 and 27 November 1513, in favour of the third Earl of Argyll, as heir to his father in various baronies, heritable offices, etc. On 16 June 1524 he appears again as a witness to a Lamont charter; and in 1531 (exact date not specified), he occurs as an arbiter in the dispute between the fourth Earl of Argyll and Campbell of Glenorchy. His wife was a daughter of Colin Campbell, third laird of Ardkinglass. Independent traditions in the families of Duntroon and Duart (Maclean), which differ in details where we should expect difference, but agree in the main outlines, make it probable that, in 1545 or 1546, a laird of Duntroon (who, as we shall see, must have been this John), was mainly instrumental in putting an end to the threatened hostilities between the two Clans and bringing about the double Campbell-Maclean marriage of that date. Blending the two traditions, I think I am not far wrong in stating the facts as follows : Argyll had summoned his vassals to meet him, with a view to the invasion of Mull, ordering tbose that dwelt on the coast each to bring a ship. Duntroon, who was a friend of the laird of Duart, appeared without any vessel and pleaded that he had none. Argyll, however, would take no excuse and ordered him to find one. Desirous of apprising Hector Maclean of his danger, but unable conscientiously to break his allegiance, he crossed to Mull and requested the loan of a ship from Hector himself, well knowing that the latter would be curious to know what he wanted it for-in which case, I take it, he could not be expected to imperil his salvation by an untruth ; Maclean thereupon lent him a ship, requesting him to tell his Chief that, if he came in peace he would be entertained well, but if in war, the Clan Gillean was ready for him. It is probable that Duntroon pointed out to his chief that Hector was now forewarned and that his brother, Alan Maclean, who was a most able sea captain, would constitute a grave danger to the Campbell communications.

| 483 | From the MacFarlane web site: 1 -In 1671 a descendant of 'Johne of Oib', Niall Campbell., Provost of Inverary took possession of Duntroon as a debt from John Campbell., 12th laird., and left it in his will to the Oib branch. Notwithstanding this the Raschoille Campbells, descended from Alexander, a brother of John., continued to style themselves 'lairds of Duntroon'. 2 - It is more probable that John left no male issue, and so the headship of the family passed to the line of his next brother, Alexander Campbell of Raschoille. [Campbells of Duntroon p21] 3 - John Campbell of Duntroon had succeeded his father by 11 December 1667 and we meet him again on 20 July 1670. But on 16 December 1671 we find corroborative evidence of his dispossession spoken of in the Lyon Office document, for on this date Niall Campbell, Provost of Inveraray, has letters of apprising against him, following on an Inquest held at the New Tolbooth in Edinburgh on 17 October of the same year. The Provost got possession of the estate immediately afterwards, but John appears once more, subsequently to this, as " of Duntroon," namely, on 29 June 1675. His wife, Margaret of Inverlevir, was probably dead on 5 September 1674, since she does not appear in a document of that date, as might have been expected, had she been living. It has been suggested that-present heir male of that family might be found, as a descendant of John Campbell of Duntroon (dispossessed in 1671), in humble circumstances. It is more probable that John left no male issue, and so the headship of the family passed to the line of his next brother, Alexander Campbell of Raschoille.

| 485 | From the wording of the Confirmation of 1592, I judge that Duncan was Archibald's only son ; and he is probably identical with the Duncan Campbell " in Lairghunsoun," who was one of the witnesses, on 29 August 1612, to a sasine by Donald McGilchrist. He appears never to have succeeded to the property, since, 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., as heir to his father, the deceased Duncan Campbell of Lergnachunzeon, younger. When a young man, Duncan gave his sword to the smith at Slochmhullein (the hamlet outside Duntroon Castle) to sharpen. When it was ready, Duncan swung it round to test its balance, and inadvertently cut off the unfortunate smith's head, being himself drenched in blood as a result. Hence his name has come to us by tradition as " Donachie na fola " (" Bloody Duncan "). [The Campbells of Duntroon by Herbert Campbell pub.1913] | Campbell, Duncan "Bloody Duncan" (I7150)

| 491 | Genealogy and notes taken from "History of the Counties of Ayr and Wigtown" by James Paterson, vol 1--Kyle, Edinburgh: 1863 Paterson goes on to give some evidence as to why he believes Killoch ought to have preceeded Cesnock in the entail. I will try to capsulize: 1. Lord Loudoun did not set aside his two granddaughters, the eldest of which became Baroness Loudoun and the second married Cesnock. In 1620 he executed two other deeds to Sir John CAMPBELL of Lawers, husband to his eldest daughter. Since he did not mean to exclude the granddaughters, it was only logical that he would mention the second daughter who married Cesnock next, especially since the closest male relative was distantly related. 2. The arms of old Cesnock are those of Argyle quartered with Loudoun, which Paterson says is proof that the origin was directly from Argyle. None of the Loudoun cadets carry the arms of Argyle and Loudoun quartered except Skerrington (see previous posts). Skerrington was originally from Argyle,but a cadet of Loudoun who married the heiress of the family. 3. Strongest Proof: "is in the service of Hugh CAMPBELL of Killoch, 'heir male to Hugh Lord LOUDOUN, the great-grand-nephew of his (Killoch's) great-grandfather, ' in the office of Baillie of Kylesmure, on the 9th January, 1634, only 21 years after the ential was make. He is here declared heir-male of the very executor of the entail in 1613." Paterson from the above deduces that Killoch, and NOT Cesnock, was the nearest male relative to Baron Loudoun. He also states that Robertson (another author) was incorrect to ascribe the ancestry of Cesnock to George, second son of George CAMPBELL of Loudoun. The latter Paterson believes isthe origin of the Killoch family. | Campbell, George Master of Loudoun (I1641)
