Achnagart MacRaes

Does anyone out there have information on how the Achnagart MacRaes link into the main line of Clan MacRae both through the direct line and by intermarriage? Is there a full genealogy of them out there anywhere? Achnagart farm is in the valley of Glenshiel and was held by the same branch of McRaes for many years until the line died out in the mid 19th century. I have obtained copies of some letters from the last male representative of Achnagart to kinsmen in Georgia, USA, during the mid 1800's. He makes reference to the plight of his family--as it lacked male heirs other than his nephew in America, a lad who was destined to die without children at a young age. Apparently, the Achnagart MacRaes were privileged to serve as pall-bearers for the Mackenzie Earls of Seaforth.
