This is an interesting thread, it appears that many of our Lamont ancestors married Campbells. One of my Lamont ancestors (a Patrick) also married a Campbell in Scotland. I believe those Campbell girls must have lived just across the glen or the burn from the Lamonts. The Lamonts were the ferriers in the area around Argyll and Cowal, maybe they met the Campbell ladies on the ferry boat.
On my father's side of the family, I have the Lamonts and two different strains of Campbells, the Blackburn's and Blair's from Scotland. The Brown strain appears on my mother's side along with the McGregors, Bruce of Airth, Bruce of Stenhouse, Dunbar's, more Campbells and the Woods. There are more families and clans on both sides, I just can't remember all of them. I think I'm going to make a list just for fun.
