  • Notes 
    • 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."
