Effect to be given to the old manuscript Genealogies of the Highland Clans. In the second part of this Work, it is proposed to examine the history, individually, of the different clans of the Gael of the Highlands of Scotland, to trace the origin of each, their distinctive designations, descent, branches into which they have subsequently spread out, and the affiliation of the different clans with respect to each other, with such particulars of their earlier history as may seem to be supported by good evidence. It has been considered unnecessary to load these accounts with the more recent details of family his- tory, as possessing in themselves little variety or interest to the general reader, and in no respect B 2 4 THE HIGHLAND CI.ANS. [PART II. affecting the main object of this Work— namely, that of dispelling the obscurity and inconsistencies in which the early history of the Gael has been in- volved. When the outline has been distinctly traced, and the sixbject reduced to what it is to be hoped may appear a well-founded system of history, that outline wor.ld admit of being easily filled up, and the notice of each individual family brought down in full to the present time, were such details compatible with the necessary limits of a Work of the present description. In order to explain the nature of the aiTangement in ubich the clans have been placed, it will be ne- cessary to recall to the recollection of the reader, that one gxeat feature of the system of history established iu this Work is, that previous to the thirteenth cen- tury the Highlanders of Scotland were divided into a few great tribes, which exactly corresponded with the ancient earldoms, and that from one or other of these tribes all the Highlanders are descended. Accord- ingly, the different claiis will be found under the name of the ancient earldom, or tribe, of which they originally formed a part, and, throughout, the rela- tion of the different clans to each other will be accu- rately maintained, llefore entering, however, upon the history of the Highland clans, it may not be amiss to notice an objection which may be made to this view of their origin. ; Cl!AP. I.] THE HIGHLAND CLANS. The I'ictish In the early part of this Wuik it has bc^t^n origin of •' ^ ^?d"dfn"s demonstrated, so far as a fact cf that nature by" radiifox is Capable of demonstration, that the mo- dern Highlanders are the same people v^ith those who inhabited the Highlands cf Scotland in the ninth and tenth centuries, and that these inhabitants were not Scots, as is generally supposed, bat were the descendants of the great northern division of the Pictish naiion, who were altogether unaffected by the Scottish conquest of the Lowlands in 843, and who in a great measure maintained their independ- ence of the kings of that race. It has also been shewn that these Northern Picts were a part of the Caledonians, the most ancient inhabitants of the country, and that they spoke the same language, and bore the same national appellation, with the present Highlanders. Now to this idea, it may be said, that the traditionary origins at present existing among the clans are radically opposed, and that it is difficult to believe that, if such was their real origin, a tiaditiou of an opposite nature could exist among theni. At first sight this objection will appear a serious one but that arises, in a great measure, from not duly investigating tlie nature and history of the Highland traditions. History of In examining the history of the Highland traditions, cians, the enquirer will first be struck by the diversity of the traditionary origins assigned to them. He will find them to have been held by some to be originally Irish, by others Scandinavian, Nor- ^ 6 THE HIGHLAND CLANS, [PART II. man, or Saxon, and he will find different origins assigned to many of the clans, all of which are sup- ported by arguments and authorities equally strong. Among so many conflicting traditions and systems, he will probably feel himself in considerable uncer- tainty, and the presumption which naturally arises in his mind is, that all these systems and traditions are equally false, and that the true origin of the High- landers has yet to be discovered. This presumption will be strengthened when he remarks, that in none of these traditions is a native origin ever assigned to any of the clans, but that, on the contrary, they are all brought from some one foreign people or another; a system which reason shews to be as impossible as it is unsupported by history and inconsistent with the internal condition of the country. But a closer inspection will discover to him a still more remark- able circumstance— viz., that there has been in the Highlands, from the earliest period, a suc- ' Succession '-' _ cessiou of traditious regarding origin of tfons^fn the the "'^ ° the different clans, which are equally op- posed to each other, and which have equally ob- tained credit in the Highlands, at the time when they severally prevailed. It will be proper, there- fore, to notice shortly these successive systems of traditionary origin which have sprung up at different times in the Highlands, and the causes which led to their being adopted by the clans. The immediate effect of the Scottish conquest, in 843, was the overthrow of the civilization and learn- C UAP. 1.] THE HIGHLAND CLANS. f ing of the country. The Southern Picts, a people comparatively civihzed, and who possessed in sorac degree the monkish learning of the age, were over- run by the still barbai'ous Scottish hordes, assisted by the equally barbarous Pictish tribes of the moun- tains. After this event, succeeded a period of confu- sion and civil war, arising from the struggles between the races of the Scots and of the Northern Picts, for preeminence on the one part, and independence on the other ; and when order and learning once more lifted up their heads amongst the contending tribes, a race of kings of Scottish lineage were firmly esta- blished on the throne, and the name of Scot and Scotland had spread over the whole country. A knowledge of the real origin of the Highland clans was, in some degree, lost in the confusion. The na- tural result of the preeminence of the Scottish name in the country was a gradual belief in the Scottish origin of the Highland clans ; and this belief, which must eventually have prevailed even among the clans themselves, was firmly fixed in their minds at an earlier period by a circumstance in the history of Scotland which will be afterwards noticed.

  • The Cistercian Abbey of Coupar Angus, C.1164-C.1560
    1 The Cistercian Abbey of Coupar Angus, c.1164-c.1560 Victoria Anne Hodgson University of Stirling Submitted for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy August 2016 2 3 Abstract This thesis is an examination of the Cistercian abbey of Coupar Angus, c.1164-c.1560, and its place within Scottish society. The subject of medieval monasticism in Scotland has received limited scholarly attention and Coupar itself has been almost completely overlooked, despite the fact that the abbey possesses one of the best sets of surviving sources of any Scottish religious house. Moreover, in recent years, long-held assumptions about the Cistercian Order have been challenged and the validity of Order-wide generalisations disputed. Historians have therefore highlighted the importance of dedicated studies of individual houses and the need to incorporate the experience of abbeys on the European ‘periphery’ into the overall narrative. This thesis considers the history of Coupar in terms of three broadly thematic areas. The first chapter focuses on the nature of the abbey’s landholding and prosecution of resources, as well as the monks’ burghal presence and involvement in trade. The second investigates the ways in which the house interacted with wider society outside of its role as landowner, particularly within the context of lay piety, patronage and its intercessory function. The final chapter is concerned with a more strictly ecclesiastical setting and is divided into two parts. The first considers the abbey within the configuration of the Scottish secular church with regards to parishes, churches and chapels. The second investigates the strength of Cistercian networks, both domestic and international.

    THE MYTHOLOGY, TRADITIONS and HISTORY OF MacDHUBHSITH ― MacDUFFIE CLAN (McAfie, McDuffie, MacFie, MacPhee, Duffy, etc.) VOLUME 2 THE LANDS OF OUR FATHERS PART 2 Earle Douglas MacPhee (1894 - 1982) M.M., M.A., M.Educ., LL.D., D.U.C., D.C.L. Emeritus Dean University of British Columbia This 2009 electronic edition Volume 2 is a scan of the 1975 Volume VII. Dr. MacPhee created Volume VII when he added supplemental data and errata to the original 1792 Volume II. This electronic edition has been amended for the errata noted by Dr. MacPhee. - i - THE LIVES OF OUR FATHERS PREFACE TO VOLUME II In Volume I the author has established the surnames of most of our Clan and has proposed the sources of the peculiar name by which our Gaelic compatriots defined us. In this examination we have examined alternate progenitors of the family. Any reader of Scottish history realizes that Highlanders like to move and like to set up small groups of people in which they can become heads of families or chieftains. This was true in Colonsay and there were almost a dozen areas in Scotland where the clansman and his children regard one of these as 'home'. The writer has tried to define the nature of these homes, and to study their growth. It will take some years to organize comparative material and we have indicated in Chapter III the areas which should require research. In Chapter IV the writer has prepared a list of possible chiefs of the clan over a thousand years. The books on our Clan give very little information on these chiefs but the writer has recorded some probable comments on his chiefship.

PREFACE The material for " The Rulers of Strathspey" was originally collected by the Author for the article on Ogilvie-Grant, Earl of Seafield, in The Scots Peerage, edited by Sir James Balfour Paul, Lord Lyon King of Arms. A great deal of the information collected had to be omitted OAving to lack of space. It was thought desirable to publish it in book form, especially as the need of a Genealogical History of the Clan Grant had long been felt. It is true that a most valuable work, " The Chiefs of Grant," by Sir William Fraser, LL.D., was privately printed in 1883, on too large a scale, however, to be readily accessible. The impression, moreover, was limited to 150 copies. This book is therefore published at a moderate price, so that it may be within reach of all the members of the Clan Grant, and of all who are interested in the records of a race which has left its mark on Scottish history and the history of the Highlands. The Chiefs of the Clan, the Lairds of Grant, who succeeded to the Earldom of Seafield and to the extensive lands of the Ogilvies, Earls of Findlater and Seafield, form the main subject of this work.

    Clan Macpherson, 1215 - 1550 How the Macphersons acquired their Clan Lands and Independence Reynold Macpherson, 20 January 2011 Not for sale, free download available from www.reynoldmacpherson.ac.nz Clan Macpherson, 1215 to 1550 How the Macphersons acquired their traditional Clan Lands and Independence Reynold Macpherson Introduction The Clan Macpherson Museum (see right) is in the village of Newtonmore, near Kingussie, capital of the old Highland district of Badenoch in Scotland. It presents the history of the Clan and houses many precious artifacts. The rebuilt Cluny Castle is nearby (see below), once the home of the chief. The front cover of this chapter is the view up the Spey Valley from the memorial near Newtonmore to the Macpherson‟s greatest chief; Col. Ewan Macpherson of Cluny of the ‟45. Clearly, the district of Badenoch has long been the home of the Macphersons. It was not always so. This chapter will make clear how Clan Macpherson acquired their traditional lands in Badenoch. It means explaining why Clan Macpherson emerged from the Old Clan Chattan, was both a founding member of the Chattan Confederation and yet regularly disputed Clan Macintosh‟s leadership, why the Chattan Confederation expanded and gradually disintegrated and how Clan Macpherson gained its property and governance rights. The next chapter will explain why the two groups played different roles leading up to the Battle of Culloden in 1746. The following chapter will identify the earliest confirmed ancestor in our family who moved to Portsoy on the Banff coast soon after the battle and, over the decades, either prospered or left in search of new opportunities.

To this we owe in part the com- ing of our own early ancestors to these isles.
