11. | Jean Cameron (2.Christian2, 1.Jean1) was born in ca 1700; died on 27 Jun 1772 in Mount Cameron, nr Rutherglen, Lanarkshire. Notes:
(??m. Con. O'Neil, son of Bryan O'Neil, separated before 1745 - generally considered unlikely)
From 1743 she was called Mrs Cameron, and she was described as a widow in 1745.
Living at Acharn in 1760s. No known issue
|
16. | John Cameron, 4th of Glendessary (2.Christian2, 1.Jean1) was born in ca 1715; died in 1757-1762. Notes:
And of Acharn in Morvern. In 1743 he went abroad, by 1746 "he is bedridden with the Palsy for many years".
He was served heir to his father in 1732.
|
20. | Alexander Cameron, 3rd of Dungallon (4.Isobel2, 1.Jean1) died on 3 Sep 1759 in Quebec. Notes:
Major in Lochiel's Regt in 1745, Standard bearer in Prince's army. He surrendered 6 Mar 1746, transferred from Inverary to Edinburgh Castle March 1747.(Ref. London papers March 1747). He was released 11 Oct 1749 (London Evening Post).
Capt. in 78st Fraser Highlanders, gazetted 21 Jul 1757, having served as ensign (the regiment was formed early 1757).
His will of 1757 left all his property to John Cameron, 4th of Glendessary. The will also mentions Donald Cameron, "my natural son" (Ref. Chris Doak)
It has been suggested that Captain Alexander Cameron of Dungallon, who died 1759, is in fact the son of the standard bearer. Regimental histories record him as 4th of Dungallon. One recent (unsourced) independent book gives a birth date of 1730, which would seem to fit his rank (Bernard A. Drew, re Henry Knox).
However a further review of dates of known family members makes this suggestion unlikely.
Family/Spouse: Catherine Cameron. Catherine (daughter of John Cameron, of Fassifern and Jean Campbell) was born in 1735 in Auchmore, Perthshire; was christened on 3 Dec 1735 in Killin, Perthshire; died on 17 Jun 1766. [Group Sheet] [Family Chart]

26. | Alexander Campbell (6.Lucy2, 1.Jean1) died in 1751. Notes:
Lieut in Loudon's Highlanders.
He is said by Campbell researchers to have been unmarried, and to have died 1751, before his brother Colin. He is also said to be second son, likely with the name Alexander.
Burke's Peerage states he was born 1729, died 1822, and married 1770 Elizabeth Sutherland, with issue Hugh, Kenneth, Norman and Donald Campbell. These dates are incompatible with the McIntyre/Campbell history.
