| | Clan MACKINTOSH |
 | | Mackintosh, founding on the history of the family written about 1679 by Lachlan Mackintosh of Kinrara, brother of the eighteenth chief, favours the statement that the clan is descended from Shaw, second son of Duncan, third Earl of Fife, which Shaw is stated to have proceeded with King Malcolm IV. |
 | | Mackintosh replied that he would stoop even to this to save his father’s house, and, as the interview took place in the kitchen of the castle, he knelt down before the block on which the animals for the use of the garrison were broken up, and laid his neck upon it. |
 | | The Mackintoshes were later connected with the chiefship of Clan Chattan (a confededation of clans claiming descent from the bailie of the Abbey of Kilchattan in Bute) when Angus, 6th chief married Eva, the heiress of Clan Chattan in 1291. |
