    Notes:

    The MacIans of Glencoe are descended from John, son of Angus Og of Isla,
    who, according to the Seanachies, was a natural son. He was thus a
    half-brother of the "Good John" of Isla. He was known as Iain Fraoch and
    also as Iain Abrach. The daughter of Dugall Mac Henry, chief man of
    Glencoe, was his mother. The special difficulties of the genealogy arise
    from the fact that so many of the same name followed each other in the
    chieftanship, and that with nine or ten John Abrachs and John Mac Iains
    and John Mac Iain Abrachs, it is difficult to make distinctions.

    Children:
    1. 2. Old John, Called Iain Abrach was born about 1500; and died.
