| Ewen ("Dowe" aka Eoghan Dou) Campbell of Dergachy, Argyllshire | |||||||||||||||
| 1. | Iain (Ean or John) ('Dow') Campbell of Dergachy | ||||||||||||||
| HJHeraldry shows Iain's wife as Besseta Boill (implied mother of Ewen, Duncan, Donald & Iain) with his eldest son, Ewen (a 1542, m. Mariota Cambell of Pennymore), being father of Iain (m. Jane Lyoun) + Archibald. However, FSCOMT shows no wife for this John but identifies him as father of another John plus Duncan & Donald with that eldest son (John) being father (by Besseta Boill) of Ewen father (by Mariota McIver) of John (m. Jane Lyon), Archibald & Donald. In other words, FSCOMT inserts an additional generation on the Dergachy line and shows some of the wives differently from HJHeraldry. Provisionally, we follow FSCOMT. | |||||||||||||||

| #1# HJHeraldry shows that Ewen had 3 daughters by Janet Campbell and then reports "Next followed four brothers, whose parentage is not given" of whom the 4th was Donald of Knochamellie (m1. Isobell Campbell who d 1693, m2. Janet Stewart) father of Duncan who m. Sophia Campbell. FSCOMT identifies the 3 daughters as follows and also shows how the Donald, father by Isobel Campbell of the Duncan who m. Sophia Campbell, fits into the family. See #2# below. | |||||||||||||||

| #2# HJHeraldry shows (as son of Archibald) this Donald (a 05.1679) "named as substitute heir to Dergachy" and then, separately and as mentioned in #1# above, mentions a Donald of Knochamellie (d 1711) who was 4th of 4 brothers. FSCOMT shows these Donalds as being the same person. However, FSCOMT does not show Donald's 3 elder brothers. To ensure that we do not lose sight of those 3 extra brothers, we include them below. | |||||||||||||||

| Iain and his son are not mentioned by FSCOMT but are given by HJHeraldry (Campbell, vol 2, 'Druymsynie', p27). This may be because the FSCOMT compiler thought it likely that the following Ewen had been confused with 'his elder brother' Ewen above, a sentiment we agree with. | |||||||||||||||
