    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.
