  • Notes 
    • 5th Chief (1441-1486): Duncan, son of John, became chief on 18 January 1441. He had two sons: Walter, his heir, and John, progenitor of the Macfarlanes of Kenmore, from whom Robert Macfarlane of Auchinvennalmore in Glenfruin is descended. Battle of Stalc (1468) was fought (and lost) in Appin, Argyllshire. Clan MacFarlane joined with the MacDougalls against the Stewarts and the MacLarens in an inter-clan battle. Duncan died in the reign of King James III, 1460-1488.
