If we are missing any names that you know are connected to Ardchattan please contribute below.

Mc and Mac are interchangeable depending on the era, decade, who is writing the document. It is a fallacy that Mc is Irish or Catholic, just as Mac is not solely Scots and Protestant. Names have been changed by families, as they move and by general use. Most of the 1800's records have Mc .. changing to mostly Mac in the 1900's. Each are just as correct as the other.

We have a number of names in the records that change through time.. the old gaelic names become anglicised.
