  • Clan MacIntyre is a Scottish clan. The name MacIntyre, means “son of the carpenter. ” While some writers consider the name to be a trade name, numerous others speak of MacIntyre as an established clan. Connected by tradition, geography and marriage to two of the most powerful clans, MacDonald and Campbell, Clan MacIntyre nonetheless maintained its independence. Although no documented history of the clan exists, it is most commonly said to descend from Maurice Mac Neil a nephew of Somerled, the great twelfth century leader of the Scottish Gaels. Through an ingenious strategy, Maurice secured the marriage of Somerled to the daughter of the King of Mann and the Isles, thus greatly increasing Somerled’s territories. At an unknown date the clan journeyed from the Hebrides to the Scottish mainland where the chiefs established their home at Glenoe on Loch Etive. The earliest recorded clan chiefs do not emerge until the seventeenth century. According to tradition, they had held the land at Glenoe for centuries, although subject to a feudal tenure converted to money rent in later years. In 1806, however, the chief was forced to relinquish the tenancy of Glenoe due to inability to meet the payments. He and his family subsequently emigrated to the United States. MacIntyres participated in military campaigns during the civil war in Scotland and the Jacobite rising of 1745-46 but they did not operate as an independent body. Clan members also served as hereditary foresters to the Lords of Lorne and as hereditary pipers to the chiefs of Clan Menzies and the MacDonalds of Clanranald. Perhaps the clan's most illustrious member, Duncan Ban MacIntyre is regarded as one of the finest Gaelic poets.
  • Макинтайр — один из кланов горной части Шотландии. Имя MacIntyre означает «сын плотника». Возник в результате длительных родственных связей соседствующих влиятельных кланов Макдональд и Кэмпбелл. Считается, что клан ведет свое происхождение от Моуриса Мак Нила (Maurice Mac Neil), племянника Сомерледа (Somerled), гэло-норвежского предводителя, жившего в XII веке. Один из самых известных представителей клана - Дункан Макинтайр, гэльский поэт XVIII века.
