Tartan History

Alastair Carrach, grandson of the 1st Lord of the Isles, was the founder of the Keppoch branch of the great Clan Donald. In 1431 part of Keppoch's lands were forfeited and given to the Mackintoshes and this caused a feud between the two clans. They appear to have been extremely warlike and the 9th chief, who was exiled for most of his life, served in the Swedish army. The 12th chief and his brother were murdered in 1663.
