| Notes |
- Sir Colin Campbell, due to his achievements in war and the lands he added to his estate, obtained the surname Mor, or Great. From him, the Chief of the House is in the Gaelic styled, to this day, Mac Calein Mor. He was knighted by Alexander III in 1280, and was one of the nominees in 1291, on the part of Robert Bruce, in the contest for the crown of Scotland. This renowned and gallant chieftain was slain about 1296 in a conflict with his powerful neighbor, the Lord of Lorne, at a place called the String of Lorne, where a cairn is erected over his grave. The event occasioned continued feuds for many years between the Houses of Lochow and Lorne, which terminated at last by the marriage of the first Earl of Argyll with the heiress of Lorne.
