In Reply to: Clan Farquharson/Fionnladh by Stan Cowan of 1462

In my research, the Clan Farguharson, Clan MacKintosh and Clan Shaw descend from the original Clan Fionnlaidh (Finley). This old Clan was outlawed when Macbeth & Lulach was defeated by Malcolm-111. The Clan Farquharson descend from Eugenius MacFionley (Farquhar Shaw) fourth son of Alexander Shaw of Rothurmurius, chief of the Clan Fionnlaidh,a Sept of the original Hail-Kin Clan Chattan.This Farquhar lived in the early part of the 13th century.
The olden Clan Fionnlaidh descend from Fiacha O'Fhionnholia, King of Northern Ireland around 50ad.
