Hello
i am a desendent of a Donald McCurdy IV of Bute (1598)(son of Finlay
McCurdy and Grandson of Donald III McCurdy) and Peggy Cameron born at
The
Banks of Tweed both born around the time of 1598 both died around
1660to1680 and it has been said that Peggy Camerons
great great grandfather was King James IV of Scotland(1470). Theonly
family that i can find connected to the Royal Stewarts is the following
Alan Cameron of Lochiel the Grandfather of Sir Ewen Cameron. Donald
McCurdy IV my great ancestor is a GreatGreat Grandson of the Clan Cheif
Gilchrist
MacCurdy (1440) the same mccurdy of the Royal Charter of 1506 signed by
King James
IV. Just trying to get more info on my Camerons. Most of the above info
came
from what is call the Cameron's Family Notes and Reminiscences at the
fatal
period when the last onslaught by the Royalist was impending against
the
Presbyterians of Argyle and Bute, and which resulted in Massacre and
wholesale extermination, William Cameron in a Letter to a cousin in 1660
in
regards to this family of Donald IV McCurdy. William is a cousin to
Peggy
Cameron. It also was said that Alan Cameron also had some daughters.
I take this Alan Cameron to be Alan Cameron XVI ofLochiel.
Can you help out at all.
thank you archie campbell
