Notes

Diarmid Alexander Campbell writes: Archibald was mentioned as the predecessor of Dougall of Invarawe in the Charter of 1485. This line is likely descended from Duncan "Sceodnasch" Campbell (Ref#5b) who was the brother of Sir Colin "iogantach" Campbell of Lochawe (6). This relationship is mentioned in the History of the Campbells, Volume1.

Archibald, first of Inverawe, must have died between 1478 and 1485 (vide infra). This could have meant that he, the first MacConnochie Campbell of Inverawe, was great-grandson of Duncan Skeodnasach Campbell, brother to Sir Colin iongantach Campbell of Lochawe who died in 1412.

There may be an additional generation missing in my tree.

The progenitor Duncan Skeodnasach could have named his son Archibald after his own father Gillespic, lord of Lochawe, and this Archibald have called his son Dougall who could have been followed by Archibald, first of Inverawe. This number of generations would parallel those known for the family of the Campbells of Lochawe during that period.

If you have a DNA test and a family tree in the form of a GEDCOM please consider a submission to the Project so we can obtain the widest coverage possible for Campbell related lineages.

Also if you have time to volunteer, we are seeking people to help us verify and correct submissions, generally date formats, place name conventions, sources citations etc. The Project also needs help at Wikitree. If interested just use the contact form and let us know!

A clan is a group of people united by actual or perceived kinship or descent. Little doubt there was a progenitor who was first known as “Cam Beul”. Eventually one of the families associated with that name would become the Chiefs of the Clan. A clan is a group of people united by actual or perceived kinship or descent.

However, it should be clear from the beginning of our research that no one family has every made up a “clan”.
