| (1) Neither HJHeraldry nor FSCOMT show a wife for this Walter. HJHeraldry suggests that it may have been his uncle Walter who married the heiress of Skipnish but, as shown above, we suspect that it was a daughter of an earlier generation who married that Walter. We also suspect that it was this Walter who married the heiress Jane (and is reported by BLG1937 to have later married a Mary Campbell). (2) There is also some confusion over the next few generations which are skipped over by BLG1886. BLG1937, which merely identifies Walter as "of the family of Ardinglass" and d before 1618, shows Walter & Jane as parents of Walter (not Mathew, sadly we no longer have ready access to BLG1937 to check this and are relying on our notes thereon) who m. Elizabeth, dau of Colin Campbell of Kilberrie, thereby leaving out the next 4 generations given by HJHeraldry which shows Walter's elder son Matthew (a 1588) as father of Walter father of Matthew (and Major Donald, both d 07.1647) "probably" father of Walter (a 1659) "probably" father of Mathew (d by 1670, m. Elspeth Campbell). Whilst it seems to us to be likely that BLG1937 omitted a generation or 2, we think it unlikely that it omitted as many as 4 generations. We are not using FSCOMT much for this page but we are using that source to help guide us through the next 2-3 generations. The following follows FSCOMT, leaving out 2 of the generations mentioned by HJHeraldry. |

| 1. | Matthew Campbell, Captain of Skipnish (a 1588) this generation omitted by BLG1937 | ||||||||||||||
| HJHeraldry identifies Matthew's wife as Derverguilla MacAllister but FSCOMT names her ... | |||||||||||||||
| m. Katharine Maccur of Argyllshire | |||||||||||||||
| A. | Walter Campbell, Captain of Skipnish this generation omitted by BLG1937 | ||||||||||||||

| m. Mary Campbell (m2. Torquil MacNeill of Crear) | |||||||||||||||
| i. | Matthew or Walter Campbell, Captain of Skipnish | ||||||||||||||
| Noting the confusion reported above, the husband of Elizabeth/Elspeth Campbell is identified by BLG1937 as Walter (d before 19.12.1659), by HJHeraldry as Matthew (d by 1670), and by FSCOMT as Matthew (d 07.1647). | |||||||||||||||
| m. Elizabeth (Elspeth) Campbell (dau of Colin Campbell, 2nd of Kilberrie) | |||||||||||||||
| a. | Walter Campbell, Captain of Skipness (d c1702) | ||||||||||||||
| HJHeraldry reports that Walter married twice: Jean Campbell (mother of Angus, John & Donald/Daniel) then Anne, dau of Sir James Stewart of Bute (mother of Matthew, Donald & Robert). With the addition of Mary (dau of Jean Campbell), this is supported by FSCOMT. BLG1937 shows that Walter married 3 times: firstly to Anne, daughter of Sir James Stuart of Ardvorlich & widow of MacDonald of Sana (mother of Angus & Daniel/Donald); secondly to Jean Campbell (identified as below, mother of John, Matthew, Donald & Mary); thirdly to another Anne Stewart (not identified, mother of Robert, Ann & Agnes). TSP (Bute) suggests that the widow of Alexander Macdonald of Sana who then married Walter of Skipnish was Anne, dau of Sir James Stewart, 1st Bart of Ardmaleish & Kirktoun, Sheriff of Bute. Provisionally, we assume that BLG1937 was correct in its identification of Walter's wives, with HJHeraldry having missed out his first marriage, except only that it confused which wife was the widow of Macdonald of Sana. | |||||||||||||||
