Headline Graphic - The Macleans

THE CLAN

The Clan lands were and are on the west coast of Scotland and the islands of Mull, Coll, Tiree and Jura.

The Chieftains of the Clan Maclean had and have lands on Morvern, Ardgour, Drimnin and at Dochgarroch on the mainland as well as on the islands. Those people living on these lands may, or may not have been related or they may have taken the name of Maclean for protection.

The spelling of Maclean is not important (McLean, MacClane, Maclain etc). There are other families who are also part of the Maclean family. The Rankins are a sept of the clan and traditionally provide a piper for the Chief.

Some of the names usually associated with the Macleans are Beath, Beaton, Black, Dewart, Macbeth, MacCormick, Macladyen, Macvey, Patten and Paton.
