(Research):Sir Colin Campbell of Lochow, the real founder of the family, sixth in descent from the first Gillespie, distinguished himself by his warlike actions, and was knighted by King Alexander the Third in 1280. He added largely to his estates, and on account of his great prowess he obtained the surname of Mohr or More ("great"); from him the chief of the Argyll family is in Gaelic styled Mac Chaillan More. Sir Colin Campbell had a quarrel with a powerful neighbour of his, the Lord of Lorn, and after he had defeated him , pursuing the victory too eagerly, was slain (in 1294) at a place called the string of Cowal, where a great obelisk was erected over his grave. This 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. Sir Colin married a lady of the name of Sinclair, by whom he had five sons.

William 'the Seemly' St Clair had been given the task of defending the border against the possibility of an English attack. When the attack came, Malcolm reinforced the Sinclair forces with those commanded by the Earls of March and Monteith. During the ensuing battle William Sinclair dashed forward with his forces 'to put the enemy out of order' . The report goes on to say: "He was slain by a multitude of his enimnes but not before he made fall many in heaps down by his feet". The news of his death coming to the two other chietains, March and Monteith, they fell 'so boldly upon the enimie that they scarce left any alive'. The King and the Queen lamented this misfortune and gave William's son, Henry Sinclair, the lands of Rosslyn 'in free heritage' (his father had held it in 'life rent'); made him a knight and a captain of 600 men. Henry outlived King Malcolm but was equally respected by King David I of Scotland who gave him the lands of Cardain and the command of 8,000 men. He routed the English army at the Battle of Allerton (now in Yorkshire) thereby avenging the death of his father.

Note:
William Sinclair (1028-1090), a son of Walderne, also fought at Hastings. After William the Conqueror became King of England, William Sinclair grew disenchanted over the King' s aggressiveness in expanding his new kingdom. Therefore Sinclair chose to leave England and accept the position of Steward for Queen Margaret and King Malcolm III of Scotland . He became known as "William le blond" and "the Seemly St . Clair." *********************************** Although Caithness became the stronghold of the Sinclair family, it was Rosslyn that was the cradle of the family in Scotland. First of the 'Lordly' line of the high St Clair was William 'the Seemly' who had accompanied Margaret, the Saxon Princess, from Hungary to Scotland in 1057. She eventually married Malcom III (known as 'Canmore' or Big Head) whilst William was made her 'cupbearer' because he was `perfect in all his members'. The King gave him Rosslyn in life-re nt but this was eventually changed to 'in free heritage' because of William's service to the King. (He had been killed whilst defending the Scottish borders against an English attack). His son and successor, Henri de St Clair (the first Sinclair to be born in Scotland) took part in, the 1st Crusade and was at the fall of Jerusalem in 1096.

of Boirche in the Mourne Mountains
Aeda Alain i. Buirche mic
Hugh Of BOIRCHE 1011 - 1033 Aedh Athlamhan O'Neill 22 22 The Maclachlans of Scotland are descended from Aodh Athlaman Ua Neill (O'Neill), the King of Aileach who died in 1033 A.D., ancestor of the O'Neills of Ulster, in later centuries Princes of Tyrone and Lords of Clanaboy. According to legend his younger son, Aodh Anrathan, left Ireland to campaign in Scotland, never to return. Most accounts of the family have this Aodh Anrathan marrying an heiress of the Lamonts, Lords of Cowall, from whom they are said to have inherited the lands of Cowal and Knapdale in Argyle, Scotland. The often quoted Baelic Ms. of 1467, however, refers to this Aodh Anrathan (in the pedigree of the MacEwens of Otter) as the "Lord of Badenoch," a district in Scotland bordering Lochaber, by highland tradition the original territory of the Maclachlans in Scotland. His great-grandson (or great-great-grandson, depending on the source), Giollapadraig, is referred to in the same Ms. of 1467 as "of Atholl," a district bordering Badenoch to the south. In 1230, Walter, the second son of William Cumyn, Earl of Buchan, acquired the Lordship of Badenoch by grant of King Alexander II and in 1291, a John Cumyn is described as "Lord of Badenoch." It therefore appears as though Aodh Anrathan settled first in Badenoch, of which territory he was Lord until control passed into the hands of the Cumyns, originally of Northumberland. Since his great-grandson Giollapadraig is referred to as "of Atholl," it is probable either he or his son, Lachlan Mor, were the first of the family to settle in Argyll; and it was probably Lachlan Mor's son, also named Giollapadraig, who by family tradition is said to have married an heiress of the Lamonts (Elizabeth, the daughter of the Lord of Cowall).

The Blaikie Family is a part of the Lamont Clan.....the clan is descended the royal house of Dalriade and from the O'Neill princes of Tyrone in Ireland in the 11th century. In the eleventh century Anrothan, younger son of AEDH Athlamhan 'the Handy' O'NEILL, KING OF ULSTER 1030-1033 (Royal Heir of Ireland who was given the throne during his father's pilgrimage to Rome but who died in his father's lifetime in November 1033) moved to Scotland and married the daughter of the King of Argyll and received wide lands there. According to the mediaeval Irish and Scottish genealogies he was ancestor of the MacLaghlans of Strathlachlan, The Lamonts of that Ilk (of whom the Lyons of Glamis, Earls of Strathmore, are probably cadets), the MacSorleys of Moneydrain, the MacEwans of Otter, the entire Clan Neill in Scotland (i.e. the MacNeills of Barra and the McNeills of Gigha and Colonsay), the MacSwins of Castleswin, and the MacSweeneys of Donegal. 1235 - 1292 Malcolm Mor 57 57 Lennox, previous creations: The Earldom descended to Maldouen's grandson (Malcolm, 4th Earl), then to the latter's son (another Malcolm, 5th Earl) and grandson (Donald, 6th Earl). In about 1364, however, the 6th Earl's daughter Margaret inherited the title as Countess of Lennox in her own right. She married Walter de Fasselane (modern Faslane), who seems to have been recognized as Earl of Lennox in right of his wife since in about 1385 the two of them made the dignity over to their eldest son Duncan. This son, the 8th Earl, who had not legitimate sons, got a regrant of the title from Robert III extending the line of descent to his daughter and her husband, though why this was thought necessary, given that the Earldom had already descended in just such a manner only a generation previously, is uncertain. One can only assume that the view of Earldoms in Scotland was changing about this time. [Burke's Peerage, p. 2402]

EARLDOM OF LENNOX [SCT] (IV)
MALCOLM, EARL OF LENNOX [SCT], grandson and heir, being son and heir of the Malcolm. He was Earl certainly in 1270. In July 1272 he had from the Crown a grant of free forestry in a large tract of the lands of the earldom. He was one of the barones regni Scotie (fourth on the list) who pledged themselves to support the right of Margaret, the "Maid of Norway," to the throne of Scotland. In 1290 he was one of the Scottish nobles who, in the Assembly at Brigham, gave their assent to the marriage of the said Margaret to Prince Edward. He probably died between this date and June 1292.

Page: VII:590  1187 - 1250 Maldouen Lennox 63 63 Lennox, Previous Creations: A shadow figure called Alwyn, possibly of Celtic origin, possibly of Saxon origin, possibly of both, may have become Earl of Lennox in the mid-12th century. He is also referred to in near-contemporary sources as Mormaer of a territory called Leamhan, from which the Levenax or Lennox is derived. Alwyn's son and grandson, respectively another Alwyn and Maldouen (cognate with Maldwyn), seem to have succeeded to the Earldom, the latter in about 1224. In a list of the seven Earldoms of Scotland which is thought to have represented the old Mormaerships, by now evolved into medieval titles of honour, and which dates from 1237, that of Lennox features. Yet it was missing from a somewhat later list, that of 1244, only to be reinstated in yet a third list, that of 1297. At the time of the earliest of these three lists it was surrendered by Maldouen, the 3rd Earl, to Alexander II for regrant. This was a common Scottish practice. [Burke's Peerage, p. 2402]

1238 - Built Balloch Castle

EARLDOM OF LENNOX [SCT] (III)
MALDOUEN, EARL OF LENNOX [SCT], son and heir, who [1208-1214] granted a charter to the church of Glasgow. Early in 1226 he gave them an undertaking to pay tithes and not to demand corrodies for his servants, and (before 1233) gave them the church of Cardinros, saving the rights of his brother Duuegall. In 1237 he was a witness to the treaty made between England and Scotland. He surrendered the earldom and all his possessions to the King, who, retaining the castle of Dunbarton and the territory of Morach, regranted the same to him and his heirs (as Maldouen, son of Earl Alwyn) in 1238. He married Elizabeth, daughter of Walter STEWARD, High Steward [SCT], by Beatrice, daughter of Gilchrist, EARL OF ANGUS [SCT]. She died before him. He was living 12 March 1250/1.

He had been serving as Warden of the the Marches as he commanded Scottish forces on the border with England. He then led the Scottish attack into English territory at Castle Alnwick. After the battle was won, the surrendering English garrison requested that King Malcolm should come in person to receive the keys of the castle. When Malcolm reached the gates, the soldier, Arkil Morel of Bamburgh, nephew of Earl Robert de Mowbray (sworn brother of Malcolm) presented him with the keys but thrust his spear into the king's eye at the moment his hand was outstretched to receive them. By this 'base treachery' of de Mowbray, the king Scots was killed.' Malcolm's son, Edward, maintained the siege to avenge his father's death, but, advancing too eagerly was killed, in an assault. The Scots, being too much afflicted, abandoned the siege and retired. Today the castle in an impressive display of medieval fortification, with a central keep and a massive encircling wall

Date: 16 Nov 2003 Mor ingen Tadhg 0860 - 0919 Niall Glundub O'Neill 59 59 Niall Glúndub mac Áedo (d. October 919) was a 10th century Irish king of the Cenél nEógain and High King of Ireland. While many Irish kin groups were members of the Uí Néill, tracing their descent from Niall of the Nine Hostages (Niall Noígallach), the O'Neill take their name from Niall Glúndub rather than the earlier Niall. His mother was Máel Muire, daughter of Kenneth MacAlpin, King of Scots.

Son of Aed Finliath, Niall is first recorded succeeding his brother Domnall mac Áeda as King of Aileach upon his death in 911. Extending his control to neighboring kingdoms, Niall defeated the Kings of Dál nAraidi and Ulaid at the Battles of Glarryford (in present day County Antrim) and Ballymena before his defeat by high-king Flann Sinna mac Maíl Sechnaill of the Clann Cholmáin Uí Néill at the Battle of Crossakeel (near present day County Meath). Following Flann's death in 916, Niall succeeded him as High King of Ireland. It was during his reign in which he would reestablish the Óenach Tailteann, a traditional gathering of Irish clans.

Opposing the invasion by the Northmen during the next several years, Niall's forces fought a large battle against a group of Northmen in the summer of 917, ending inconclusively. With the support of the clans of Leth Cuinn (Northern half of Ireland), the Uí Néill eventually acknowledged his claim to the throne. Despite his continued offensive against the Northmen however, they would continue to settle the area in large numbers, establishing strongholds in Dublin and various ports on the eastern coast. Continuing to wage war against the Northmen, Niall advanced towards into Leinster, supported by the Uí Néill clans, the Airgíalla and the Ulaid. However, his forces were decimated by the Northmen under Sitric the Blind as Niall was killed, along with twelve other chieftains, at the Battle of Kilmashoge (near Rothfarham) in October. He was succeeded as High King by Donnchad Donn mac Flainn, son of Flann Sinna, and as King of Ailech by his son Muirchertach mac Néill, "the Hector of the Western World".

Also Known As:<_AKA> Neil Black-knee /Glundubh/
Called Neil of the Black Knee; killed fighting the Vikings in the Battle of Dublin. The O'Neills were the chiefs of the Cenel Eoghain tribe; their ancestral lands were sometimes called Tir Eoghain, roughly equivalent to the modern County Tyrone. The surname is derived from Ui Niall, meaning descendant of Niall. The Ui Niall were the great royal dynasty of Northern Ireland; they separated from their kinsmen, the Connachta, after the famous accomplishments of the legendary King Niall of the Nine Hostages. The surname, however, did not exist until after Niall Glundubh. Niall captured and drowned a murderer in 907 who had violated the sanctuary of Armagh. He campaigned repeatedly against the Danes and Vikings, but was mortally wounded in combat in Dublin

Known as Muircheartach of the Leather Coats and Hector of the Western World. He was recognized by his distinctive long yellow hair. The nickname was associated with a leather jacket he invented that served as armor for his warriors. Muircheartach turned the tide of Viking invaders extending the defense of Ireland into Viking territory in Scotland. He died in battle against Blacar (King of Dublin), having spent his entire adult life in combat.
