Tour Scotland Video Alexander MacInnes Stained Glass Window Glencoe



Tour Scotland video of the Alexander Stewart MacInnes memorial stained glass window in St Mary's Episcopal Church on visit to Glencoe, Scotland. The Very Reverend Alexander Stewart MacInnes was an eminent Anglican Priest in the first half of the 20th century. He was Rector of St Mary's in Glencoe from 1889 to 1933 and Dean of Argyll and The Isles from 1930 to 1933.

Clan MacInnes ancestors were among the early inhabitants of Islay, Jura and the Kintyre peninsula in Scotland, generally part of the region known as Argyll. These Scotti, a Celtic, Gaelic speaking people, first appear there as settlers from Ireland when Fergus Mór, king of the north Irish kingdom of Dál Riata, and his two brothers, Loarn and Óengus, expanded their lands into south western Alba.
