My people were from the mainland -- the MacGregors' home stomping grounds are in the Trossachs, up around Balquidder ("Will ye go, will ye go, tae the braes o' Balwhidder?"), my mother is a MacDonald of Glencoe, in Lochaber.
We were all out before the Clearances, except for mother's grandfather, who came over smack dab in the middle of the American Civil War.
