GENERAL HISTORY SOCIAL HISTORY FAMILY HISTORY OCCUPATIONS ENVIRONMENT RELIGION MISCELLANEOUS Origins ORIGINS In prehistoric times, the natural place to settle would have been by the river Avon with its fertile holms and abundance of natural PRE-HISTORY resources. Evidence of early man can be found throughout the parish, enabling us to build a picture of how the community of Stonehouse developed over the centuries. The fact that a stone cist was found in the old kirk cemetery in 1937, confirms this site as a CASTLES place of pagan burial.

  • Records of Argyll Part Iv Conclusion
    RECORDS OF ARGYLL PART IV CONCLUSION By Ken McNaughton The historic origins of the Macnachtan Clan lie in Perthshire but between the 13th and 18th centuries the leadership resided in Argyll. The reasons for this discrepancy are not known. It could be that when he gave them the castle at Fraoch Eilean in 1267 [1] King Alexander III needed defensive allies in Argyll and wanted to reward the Macnachtans. Duncan McNaughton [2] suggests the leadership may have been transferred to Argyll to weaken the Clan, since there they may have been under closer royal supervision or dominated by more powerful, loyal clans. The last Macnachtan Chief left the family stronghold at Dunderave between 1710 and 1713 [3] and the Campbells consolidated their hold on Argyll. Because of their wealth and power the Campbells had time to collect stories about their clan and those of their neighbors. Perhaps the best known (and oft quoted) such book is Records of Argyll [4] which was published in 1885. One would hope that this would include some valuable information about our Clan. But keep in mind that the author is a Campbell whose modus operandi was to collect stories and that in 1881 there were twice as many people with the name MacNaughton in Perthshire as there were in Argyll [5]. The first story about the MacNaughtons in the book [6] is called “The MacNaughtons of Dunderave” [7]. While it includes some interesting stories it is not a reliable historical document. The other main entry about the MacNaughtons is contained in an Appendix [8].
