2. | Ranald (17Th Chief of Clanranald) Macdonald was born in 1692 (son of Donald (3rd of Benbecula) 16th Chief Macdonald and Janet Macdonald); died on 6 Mar 1766. Notes:
A friend tells me
"From the same book
("The History of the MacDonalds and Lords of the Isles". by AlexanderMacKenzie. He also wrote books on the MacLeods and the MacKenzies.)
Ranald MacDonald, fifteenth of Clanranald was born 1692. Married
Margaret, daughter of William MacLeod of Bernera by whom he had issue
Ranald, his heir
Donald, an officer in the British Army who greatly distinguished himself
and was killed with General Wolfe, before Quebec.
Margaret, who died unmarried
He was succeeded by his eldest son. Ranald."
This corresponds to the information on Ranald the 17th Chief in Burke'sLanded Gentry under Macdonald of Clanranald which I show here. I usedBurke's information because I happened to find it first, but I have noidea which is more accurate.
Ranald + Margaret (of Bernera) Macleod. Margaret (daughter of William (of Bernera) Macleod) died on 20 Sep 1780. [Group Sheet] [Family Chart]

11. | Marion Macleod (daughter of Ian (John) Mor 16th Chief Macleod and Sibyl (of Kintail) Mackenzie); died in 1710. Notes:
In Burke's under Donald Macdonald 13th of Clanranald, Marion is his 2ndwife plus her two other husbands are listed but it says she was daughterof Ian Mor Macleod 17th Chief, but Ian Mor was the 16th Chief, and itsays 17th Chief d.s.p.. Under Ian Mor 16th chief Marion is said to bethe 12th Clanranald's wife. However under the 12 Calanranald it says hiswife was Moire daughter of Sir Rory Mor 16th Macleod, but Sir Rory wasthe 15th Chief who has no daughters listed.
