3-34 BIOGRAPHICAL AND
daughter of Hugh Maclean of Balliphetrish of
the family of Borreray, and had by her three
sons, Lauchlan, John, and Donald. Lauchlan
served with distinction in the second battalion
of the Scots Guards in Spain. He afterwards
commanded a company of volunteers under
Brigadier Macintosh at Preston, in the year
1715, where he was taken prisoner ; but shortly
afterwards liberated under the indemnity act of
George the First. He never married. John,
Hector's second son, never married. He was a
captain in Maclean of Drimnin's battalion, and
killed at the battle of Culloden, or rather in the
massacre next day after the battle. Donald,
Hector's third son, was first married to Anne,
daughter of Charles Maclean of Kilunaig, and
had by her one daughter, Mary, who married
John Maclean, Langmull, the representative of
the family of Lehire. He was a second time
married to Mary daughter of John Maclean of
Killean, by whom he had one son, Lauchlan,
and two daughters. His son Lauchlan went
upon the ill-planned and worse executed expe-
dition commanded by Major Paulson, from Ja-
maica to the Spanish main, where he lost his
life.
The next branch of the family of Morvern
is descended from Charles of Ardnacross,
the second son of Allan Maclean of Ardtornish.
