Tour Scotland Travel Video MacVicar Window Parish Church Kenmore Highland Perthshire

Tour Scotland travel video of the MacVicar stained glass window in the Parish Church on ancestry visit to Kenmore in Highland Perthshire, Scotland. The McVicar clan were originally closely associated with the Macnaughtons, and afterwards appear to have followed the Campbells of Argyll. One Patrick McVicar was servitor of George Campbell of Inveraray in 1654. A standing stone, formerly on the lawn of the castle of Inveraray, was said to mark the old march between the Macvicars and the Macivers. In 1812, Robert McVicar of Mull, Argyllshire, emigrated to York Factory on Hudson Bay, Canada, and settled at Red River on October 27th 1812. The first recorded spelling of the family name is shown to be that of James Makuecar, burgess of Glasgow, which was dated 1488.
