The Campbells occupied and pushed the MacGregors out of their traditional lands - so, although the MacDonald connection may be better known - the MacGregors also suffered at the hands of this powerful Clan.

I read about that.
Th eMacregors lost their land and resorted to cattle/horse theft ? Then their surnam actually became il;legal and the leader of the Mac Gregor clan and two of his best men were hanged for the crime of "bearing a surname" !
