    Notes:

    ANGUS OF FERSIT MACDONALD OF KEPPOCH, 2nd CHIEF

    Aonghais Na Fearsaid (ca1478 - 1497)

    The Clan continued to hold their lands by the might of the sword and although the 2nd Chief, Angus of Fersit (Aonghas na Fearsaid) as he was known, from the fact that his principal residence was at Fersit near the north end of Loch Treig, is little heard of in history, he is said to have been as great a man as his father and to have encouraged industry among his clansmen. Domhnall Mac Fhionnlaigh Nan Dan, the old hunter bard of Loch Treig and composer of An Comhachag (The Owl) a long Gaelic poem in the early 17th century refers to a mill founded by Angus at Fersit. A mill stone belonging to this mill, now suitably inscribed, can be seen at Fersit.

    Angus of Fersit and his followers flocked to the Banner of John, 4th Lord of the Isles and Earl of Ross in 1451 when the High Chief of Clan Donald led his vassals along the shores of Loch Ness and through Badenoch as his contribution to the rebellion he had planned with the House of Douglas. During the insurrection, which lasted until the following year, the Castles of Urquhart and Inverness were seized and held by the Islesmen and the Castle of Ruthven entirely demolished.

    Angus and his Clan took part in the naval expedition which Donald Balloch of Isla led to the Firth of Clyde in 1455, in pursuance of the same cause as that of 1451-52.

    Angus is witness to a charter of John, Earl of Ross, at Dingwall in 1463 when he is styled "Angus Alexandri de Insulis'. He is said to have died at Fersit but the exact date of his death is unknown. He married a daughter of MacPhee of Glenspean, head of a prominent sept in the Braes at that time, by whom he had:

    1. Donald, his successor.

    2. Alexander, afterwards Chief.

    3. Mariot, who married Allan Cameron of Lochiel (Ailein nan Creach).
