About Hugh McClellan

McLellan History
Transcribed by Coralynn Brown

The McLellan family originated in Kircudbrightshire, Scotland, before 1200, and possesses the barony of Kirkcudbright. A branch of the family settled in Ulster, Ireland, and many of them spell the name McClellan and McClelland. They are numerous at the present (1910) time in counties Antrim, Down, Armagh, Londonderry and Mooghan. One of the principal grantees of King James in Ulster was Sir Robert MacLellan, Laird Bombie, as he was called, who in 1633 was created Lord Kirkcudbright, and whose great castle stands to this day. He receivedf 2,000 acres in the precinct of Boylagh, county of Donegal. He took possession in the summer of 1610, but returned afterward to Scotland and sold to John Murray. He leased 3, 210 acres of the Haberdashers' Hall on the Londoners' Plantation, county Cavan; and a similar grant to the Clothworkers' Hall adjoining.
John McClellan was a Calvinistic minister established at Newton-Ards, county Down, in 1630. Edward McClelland was in Coleraine in 1653.
Three of the McLellan family settled in Maine among the first of the Scotch-Irish. James McLellan located at Saco, and his brother Hugh at Gorham. Hugh was son of Hugh McLellan, of the north of Ireland, and married a relative, Elizabeth, daughter of Cary McLellan. They were descendants of Sir Hugh McLelland, of Argyle, knighted in 1515, ancestor of Sir Robert, mentioned above.
