Old travel Blog photograph of houses and a vintage car on Main Street in Port Charlotte village located on the shores of Loch Indaal , Island of Islay, Inner Hebrides, Scotland. Port Charlotte was named after Lord Frederick Campbell's wife, and it was set up mainly to provide housing facilities for the Lochindaal Whisky Distillery work force. In October 1813, the American privateer The True Blooded Yankee captured six merchant ships lying at Port Charlotte, casting them adrift and setting fire to three. Blog post of interest to folks with ancestry, genealogy or Scottish Family Roots in Scotland who may wish to travel and visit one day.
