Old Photograph Tynribbie Scotland

Old photograph of cottages in Tynribbie, Argyll, Scotland. Clan Campbell was the main clan of the Argyll region. The Campbell clan hosted the long line of the Dukes of Argyll. Clan Gregor historically held a great deal of lands in this region prior to the proscription of their name in April 1603, the result of a power struggle with the Campbells. Clan Lamont historically both allied and feuded with the Campbell clan, culminating in the Dunoon Massacre. In the 19th century, the clan chief sold his lands and relocated to Australia, where the current chief lives.
