The MacDonells of Lochgarry

This prominent family is descended from Ranald MacDonell, 10th of Glengarry and 2nd of Scotus. Ranald, with the concurrence of Alexander, his eldest son and heir apparent granted under sasine, dated 16th December, 1696, the five penny lands of Sandaig in Knoydart to John, his "second lawful son now in life.... following on precept of sasine contained in the contract of wadset, dated 22nd November, 1693, between Ronald and Alexander of Glengarrie and the said John McDonell" [Scottish Record Office, Gen. Reg. of Sasines 3/71 (318-321)]. Neither John MacDonell of Sandaig nor his sons, Donald and Angus, signed the address to George I, the Elector of Hanover, in 1714. John died in 1725 when he was succeeded as 2nd of Sandaig, by his elder son. [3]
