There is no recognised chief in the 21C. The wolf of a cadet branch, that of Polochaig, seems to have been adopted by the remains of the clan by the end of the 18C even though by then the lands had been reassumed by the Mackintoshes. We think that this transference of recognition was an 18C way of selecting a new chief
