  • Notes: 

  • There is some recent opposition to claims that Dr. Angus Bethune is the son of Dr. Peter Bethune, and a descendant of John Bethune, 5th Laird of Balfour. The new theory is that Dr. Angus Bethune descends from the MacBeths of Islay whose roots trace back to Ireland.

    Physician to the MacLeods of Dunvegan
