Clan Maclaine of Lochbuie

Clan Maclaine Of Lochbuie

Clan Mclaine of Lochbuie is a Scottish Clan that inhabited lands on the southern end of the Isle of Mull in the Inner Hebrides of the western Scottish Highlands. "Mclaine" is an alternate spelling for "McLean." Clan Mclaine of Lochbuie and Clan McLean of Duart are two separate clans. However, since the two clans share a strong family connection, the Mclaines of Lochbuie are widely considered a "branch clan" of the much larger Clan McLean. The 26th (and current) clan chief is Lorne Gillean Ian Mclaine of Lochbuie. The clan is recognized by both the Standing Council of Scottish Chiefs and the Lord Lyon.

Famous quotes containing the words clan and/or maclaine:

    It has now become the doctrine of a large clan of politicians that political honesty is unnecessary, slow, subversive of a man’s interests, and incompatible with quick onward movement.
    Anthony Trollope (1815–1882)

    The pickings are pretty slim when you have to play the part of a housewife who doesn’t go out of her apartment because she’s afraid she’s going to get mugged, or a woman who turns into her brother, who is a murderer.
    —Shirley MacLaine (b. 1934)
