Taynuilt War Memorial Book Taynuilt War Memorial Book "LA A' BHLAIR 'S MATH NA CAIRDEAN" (Friends are good on the day of battle) Old Gaelic Proverb Taynuilt Boys 1914 Back l - r: Donald MacCall (Blackmill), Archie Campbell MM and John Campbell MM (Shore Cottage) Front l - r: Tommy MacPhee (Bridge of Awe,) James MacBean (Inverawe) Private John Black was born at Brochroy Farm Taynuilt in 1892: son of Johnnie Black, a Lismore man of uncertain temper who farmed there and ran a carting business. His Mother was Margaret MacDonald, an Aunt of the MacDonald sisters who, till recently, kept the sweet shop in the village. John was brought up with his elder brother Donald, his younger brother Alexander (Sandy) and his sisters Mary, Catherine (Katie) and Margaret (Maggie). Donald and Sandy also served in the Great War, but returned safely. Before the war John was a skilled ghillie and fisherman, much in demand with visiting gentlemen who " owed heavy baskets to his skill in boat- handling and his knowledge of baits and of where the fish lay." Villagers regarded him as one of the best young men in the District. John joined the 1/7th Battalion Argyll and Sutherland Highlanders as Private 278503. We know that he served as a stretcher-bearer and was mentally very affected when he came home on leave and recalled the suffering which he had witnessed. He was with the Battalion at the Battle of Arras when the 51st (Highland) and 34th Divisions advanced on 9th April 1917 and was killed in action on Vimy Ridge on that day, aged 25. His Platoon Commander, Lieutenant Hislop, wrote of him that he was "a good soldier doing his duty". It was some consolation to his family that he had seen his oldest brother Donald the day before he died. He is buried at Plot III.E.16 in the Valley Cemetery, Roclincourt, a village a little to the east of the road from Arras to Lens. In the 1960s, Maggie and Katie asked the author to act as escort and interpreter so that they could go to visit his grave but they never ever got round to making a decision about the trip. A story used to be told by John Campbell, father of Lily MacNaught, that he went to Stirling Castle while home on leave after a spell in the trenches to accompany Donald Black and three others who were going to be recruited. They expected to come home to Taynuilt by train that night but were immediately put into uniform and sworn in. John had to return home alone and confess to Johnnie Black that he had returned without Donald. At this point, Johnnie flew into a rage and said "I've got seven tons of coal to deliver tomorrow so you will just be here at 7o'clock in the morning to do the job". John Black's death and Donald's recruitment obliged Maggie and Katie Black to take on man's work during the War, carting coal and other goods and helping with the farm. Older residents of Taynuilt will remember that Sandy later ran the passenger and mail contract on Loch Etive with his boat "Darthula", for which he was awarded the BEM. Maggie and Katie continued to farm Brochroy and were lynchpins of the local community, particularly when they retired to their house, Ardfuar, which they built on their own ground and which gave them much pleasure. Sergeant Archibald Campbell, MM, born in 1885 and brought up at Shore Cottage Taynuilt, was the son of Mr. and Mrs. Archibald Campbell, later of Rhugarbh, Ledaig, Benderloch. He was on the Engineering Staff at J&A Gardners, Bonawe Quarry. He is shown in the record as enlisting at Port Sonachan. With his brother, John, and other village boys, he joined the Scottish Horse, a mounted unit that encouraged and paid the troopers to take their own horse with them on call-up. The Unit was posted out to the Middle East and went from Egypt, as a dismounted unit, to act as infantry in the Gallipoli campaign against the Turks. Archibald was present when the Scottish Horse covered the withdrawal from Suvla Bay and returned with the unit to Egypt. In 1917 the Unit was posted to Salonika to take part in the campaign against the Bulgarians and the Austrians. Archie distinguished himself there, making an extremely gallant defence of a post attacked by 40 Bulgarian troops, where only he and one other were unhit. They were forced to retire 200 yards but received reinforcements and under Archie's leadership counterattacked, inflicting heavy casualties on the enemy and capturing enemy documents with a considerable intelligence importance. For this operation he was awarded the Military Medal. While in the Middle East, he was awarded the Long Service and Good Conduct medal for 12 years' service with the Scottish Horse and became time-expired. He returned home for a well-earned one month disembarkation leave after which he re-trained at a Scottish Depot - possibly Perth - and joined the Black Watch as a Private soldier for duty in France. He was posted to D Company 7th Black, Watch as Private 292872, rising again quickly to at least the rank of Corporal. He was Killed In Action at Arras on 26th March 1918 at age 33 and his name is recorded on the An-as Memorial for those who have no known grave. The Campbell sons were all distinguished soldiers. Archibald who won the Military Medal and became a casualty was brother of Christina Campbell - Lily MacNaught's mother. The other brother, John, who returned safely from the War, was Katie Clayton's father and was awarded a Military Medal for a fine defence by a scouting party of Scottish Horse against a Bulgarian attack. His citation said he showed "rare initiative and coolness". The other brother Sergeant Donald Campbell was Mentioned In Dispatches. He was wounded but refused to go to the Regimental Aid Post and, as a result, was made a Prisoner of War. He must have been badly wounded because a picture of him in the Oban Times shows him being transferred from captivity, into the care of the Red Cross in Switzerland. From there a letter home speaks of his time as a PoW and says: "I am getting stronger every day...I am thankful for friends who sent parcels to me. Without them, I could not have existed." An article in the Oban Times congratulates Mr. and Mrs. Archibald Campbell Shore Cottage "for the honour their family has brought to themselves and Taynuilt." The present-day family recalls hearing that, on the day Archie was killed, his young brother Clarkie Campbell was standing by the shore at Loch Etive near the cottage and saw a light which came across the sea and rested for a moment on the cottage which was Archie's home. Private Duncan Campbell, born in Craignish. On his Mother's side, he was of Taynuilt stock being the son of Duncan Campbell, Airds Farm, Craignish and Catherine MacCallum, a Taynuilt girl with many Macfarlane/MacCallum relatives still living in the village. His Mother was widowed before World War 1 and is referred to as "crofter, Airds, Taynuilt" in the 1918 Election Roll, living in Airds Cottage. Duncan had volunteered in 1914 but was rejected several times before being accepted in 1916. He enlisted at Stirling as Private S/20318 in 8th Argylls as shown on the War Memorial, and was wounded at Passchendael in 1917 but recovered and was again drafted. He was killed in action on 26 May 1918 aged 27 years old in a shell burst which also killed many and wounded many of his comrades. The 8th had been reinforced by the remaining officers and men of 11 th Argylls which had disbanded after taking heavy casualties The war diary of an officer of 11th Argylls, Major Robert Lindsay Mackay MC who had joined the 8th Battalion from the 11th, has an entry for that day which says: "The Hun guns are very active. All calibres are strafing our area. It looks like a cover- up for a demonstration elsewhere. We had 5 men killed and about 20 wounded" Duncan is buried at Duisnans Bridge Cemetery, Etrun in the Pas de Calais, the cemetery that was used by Divisions for burials from the Front, mostly related to the Battle of Arras. Duncan had brothers and sisters. One was Archibald, affectionately known as "Baldy Bear". Baldy inherited the croft at Airds from his Mother, was for many years porter/ signalman at Taynuilt Station and is late Father of Elizabeth Campbell, wife of Dougie Barr, Inveraray. Colin, another brother, was a well-known local butcher and game dealer whose shop was opposite the Robin's Nest on a plot of ground now occupied by the Station Cottage gardens. Duncan was, apparently, very mindful of his Mother, particularly when she became a widow. Peter Campbell was born, in Kippen, Stirlingshire in 1898. It is possible that he was related to Dugald Campbell who is shown as a shepherd at Clachadow in the 1918 Electoral Roll. Prior to enlistment in 1917, he was employed as shepherd to Mr HL MacDonald of Dunach at Clachadow. He enlisted in the 8th Argylls as Private S/22637 but transferred to the 1/5th Seaforths. He was wounded in an attack on 27th July and died of wounds at age 20 on 2nd August at No 50 Casualty Clearing Station, Roye. A letter from his Company Sergeant Major said:" He was a brave soldier and a great favourite with all who knew him." He is buried at Sezanne Communal Cemetery in the Haute- Marne about 100 Kilometres East of Paris.

    Foreword LOCAL DEVELOPMENT PLAN 2ARGYLL AND BUTE COUNCIL i Argyll and Bute is an incredibly diverse area with an outstanding natural environment, more inhabited islands than any other council in Scotland, miles of amazing coastline, small communities in remote rural areas and larger towns close to the central belt. The area is the second largest council area in Scotland and home to numerous award-winning businesses and services. The scale and diversity of our region presents great opportunities as well as major challenges in planning for the future development of the area. The Local Development Plan 2 plays a key role in promoting a successful future for Argyll and Bute by helping to deliver a prosperous and inclusive economy, safeguarding our environmental assets and planning for the future growth of our communities. In this time of economic uncertainty and faced with the challenges presented by climate change and a falling population, it is increasingly important for us to work together to achieve our shared objectives. Accordingly, the Proposed Local Development Plan 2 contains a strategy that is closely aligned to the Single Outcome Improvement Plan and with other key plans for the area. It sets out a land use framework for the next 10 years to promote, guide and manage development in Argyll and Bute. It also aims to support the delivery of new homes, create new employment opportunities and protect our natural and built environment through a suite of policies, proposals and deliverable development sites. The Proposed Local Development Plan 2 has been drawn up following a comprehensive engagement process with communities, developers, key government agencies and other stakeholders.

Junior G.C. Angus, Arbroath G.C. There is some confusion concerning the spelling of the name of the golf club in Taynuilt. The name of the first club, formed in 1891, is shown as Bonawe in the Annuals, but newspaper items four or five Argyllshire, Acharacle years later covering its activities have it as Bonaw. The second club, whose course was opened in 1905, named as Bunawe and also, in newspapers, as Bonawe, but it appears to have lasted only a year as Campbelltown Hillside another course was opened in 1906. I also had difficulty with an accurate location of the courses, so the map locations are approximate.
