The details of my reference to the census concerning a MacColl was as
follows:
Nick Maclean Bristol's INHABITANTS OF THE INNER ISLES is based on a census
of men and weapons following the Jacobite uprising of 1715. I saw it briefly
in Duart Castle bookshop in 1998, and Jo Currie provides more details:
In Knocktirmartine & Clachaig (by Loch Ba) (old name for Knock) there is:
"Dugald McDugald of Ardmore
John McDugald, his servant
Neil McColl
Archibald Campbell (absent)" (My notes)
In Glencannell (at the head of Loch Ba) it has
"Donald Campbell of Achinard - he was in the Militia at Inveraray..." (Jo
Currie)
And thanks for the translation of "Mar Jam/Mhor Cam". Mar Jam is how my
great grandfather wrote it down, but he wouldn't have spoken Gaelic, being
brought up in England, so your explanations make sense. I think I must have
come across Mhor Cam later in a Scottish reference to the same person.
