Shortly afterward, I tore into my roots as I knew I had multiple lines in Scotland. My MacArthur side I've hit a bit of a roadblock on, so I focused on McVicar side, which I have been able to track to the late 18th century in Argyllshire. So I let myself be absorbed into Clan Campbell. It is also quite likely that my MacArthur roots will be tied closely with Clan Campbell if I'm ever able to successfully trace that line out of Canada.
Just out of curiosity why didn't you go with Clan Arthur (MacArthur)? They have a chief and a tartan. And Loch Awe is beautiful.
