Barons of Otterinverane

* Titles as of the date of succession. 

Eoghan MacEwen of Otterinverane [d. c.1275]

Tradition has it that the MacEwen barons of Otter trace their foundation to the early thirteenth century which according to a 1467 genealogy of the clans would have been when Eoghan was active. At this time Arygll was coming under the influence of the Stewarts and the MacEwens who had previously been a significant power lost many of their ancestral holdings, including rich Knapdale and Castle Sween. Their chief Murchadh, Lord of Knapdale and Arran was dispossessed of his lands and it is probably around this time that a branch of the family relocated to Otter which already had a fort. By the middle of the century the MacEwen clan had been reduced in power but some had established themselves at Otter and they later became chieftains of the clan.

Gillespic MacEwen of Otterinverane [d. c.1310]

Heir. In the 1467 genealogy Eoghan had a son called Gillespic. He was within living memory of MacEwen greatness and it is likely Gillespic was chief at the time of the Wars of Independence and sought to reverse the fortunes of his clan. The aligning of the MacEwens with the Balliol family set them against their old enemies the Stewarts but also against the Bruce family who claimed the throne. We also know from the lineage that Gillespic had a son Eoghan and that three MacEwen brothers are named in the service of King Edward of England, all probably his sons.

Eoghan MacEwen, of Otterinverane [d. c.1345]

Heir. A John MacEwen and his two brothers aligned themselves with the English during the wars and were granted the family’s ancestral land of Knapdale by King Edward of England. They had to take back Knapdale by force however which they may have attempted to do in the 1300s but ultimately they were unsuccessful, and were subsequently out of favour with the new King Robert the Bruce. One of these was likely to have been this Eoghan, son of Gillespic. It seems that the MacEwens were forced to accept their losses and perhaps had their lands even further reduced to an area that just consisted of the barony of Otter.

John MacEwen, of Otterinverane [d. c.1380]

Heir. We know that there was a John MacEwen of Otter in the middle of the fourteenth century and in the 1467 genealogy he is named as the son of Eoghan and father of Walter.

Walter MacEwen, of  Otterinverane [d. c.1415]

Heir. He is the last MacEwen of Otter named in the identified 1467 genealogy. MacEwen legend has it that he and his son Sween were supporters of the powerful Albany Stewarts, Robert Duke of Albany and his son Murdoch. Murdoch and his sons were executed for treason in 1425 however and it is said that this turn of fortune may have been the cause for the downfall of the family under Walter’s son Sween.

Sween MacEwen, Baron of Otter [d. c.1450]

Heir. He is the first person named in historical written records that can be located as baron of Otterinverane, but was the last MacEwen baron of Otter and MacEwen clan chief. Sween has left an uncertain picture to history, it seems he inherited Otterinverane from his father but at some point he got into financial trouble and in 1432 agreed with King James I and a powerful local family, the Campbells of Lochow that if his male line were to fail then Otter was to pass to Gillespic, son and heir of Sir Duncan Campbell of Lochow in return for a payment. It seems that Sween did in fact die without heirs and so Otterinverane passed to the Campbells and the MacEwens became a broken clan.

Sir Duncan Campbell, Lord Campbell [d. 1453]

Assignation by deed. He succeeded his father in around 1414 and was one the hostages sent to England for the ransom of King James I in 1424 who afterwards appointed him to his privy council and confirmed him as justiciar and lord lieutenant of the shire of Argyll. Campbell was again confirmed in these by King James II who raised him to be a lord of parliament in 1445 as Lord Campbell. He was a great religious benefactor, including donations to the monks of the abbacy of Sandale, in Kintyre, and founding the collegiate church of Kilmun.

Upon the outbreak of civil war Argyll supported the Queen and was general of her forces at the battle of Langside in 1568, his troops were routed but he remained loyal and when the Queen was made prisoner in England she nominated him as one of her regents. Arygll eventually accepted the authority of King James VI, becoming a member of his privy council in 1571 and later justice general, keeper of the great seal, and lord high chancellor of Scotland. He married firstly, Lady Jean Stewart the natural daughter of King James V before 1561 and secondly Lady Jean Cunninghame daughter of Alexander, Earl of Glencairn before 1585.

History of scotland History of the Barony of Otterinverane

In Cowal, on the eastern shore of Loch Fyne stands the Barony of Otterinverane, or colloquially “Otter”. This area takes its name from the sandbank which juts out more than halfway across Loch Fyne, ‘An Otir’ meaning “the long low promontory” in Gaelic. During the middle ages there was established a barony at Otter. In this time barons across Scotland were entrusted by the monarch to hold land for them and in return keep law and order, dispense justice and if necessary, raise men for war. At Otter the barony took its name from the promontory and was called Oitir an Bharain, meaning ‘the Baron’s Otter’.

The history of the Barony of Otterinverane is in many ways also the history of the Cowal peninsula, of Argyll, and even of Scotland itself. The Barony has helped to shape the local history of the area, and at times the development of the Scottish Nation. To tell the story of this Barony we must begin in prehistory, long before a written record and where our only evidence is that left beneath the ground. The neighbourhood that is Argyll has been in human occupation since prehistoric times, and we tell here the story of the Barony of Otterinverane from the first evidence of settlement in Cowal through the centuries. For most of history we can only get a sense of what was happening in the area, catching brief glimpses in the historical record when Cowal and Otter were part of larger events. Later, the Gaelic families of Argyll can be seen in possession of Otter during the middle ages, as it became an important site and eventually the stronghold of the MacEwen clan. In the later middle ages it was acquired by the Campbells of Lochow who became Earls and then Dukes of Argyll. Along with many lands in Argyll they held the Barony of Otterinverane almost without break for five hundred years. Today, Otterinverane continues to be held by a Baron who is the direct lineal descendant of numerous prior Otterinverane barons and who also shares common ancestry with all previous holders of the Barony throughout its long history, including numerous Monarchs.
Otterinverane takes its name from the Gaelic Oitir an Bharain. ‘An Otir’ is a long low promontory; in this case the sandbank that juts out more than halfway across Loch Fyne, extending from the burn of Kilfinan to the burn of Largiemore. ‘Bharain’ means baron and Otterinverane is ‘the baron’s otter’, and the barony has been referred to throughout history as ‘the Otter.’

From the present day the descent of the Barony of Otterinverane can be traced back for more than half a millennium along the line of the Campbells of Lochow who became first the Earls of Argyll and later Dukes. The line has been broken only once in that time, when after their treason in the seventeenth century the family had their lands and titles briefly taken from them. The Campbells in the fifteenth century in turn had the barony granted to them by Sween MacEwen [died c.1450]. Sween was the last MacEwen Baron of Otter and also the last chief of that clan after which they became ‘broken’ and scattered across Scotland. The early demise of Clan MacEwen has meant that their story has not been well recorded and though the area was likely known as Otter anciently, long before there were barons, at what point Otter became Otterinverane is uncertain. While we cannot be sure who held the barony before Sween MacEwen we can begin to trace the origins of ‘Otterinverane’ using the few historical records we have, archaeology and legend. History of scotland

The MacEwens trace their lineage through Gaelic legend, and oral and written history, from the Irish prince Ánrothán Uí Néill [died c.1080]. He was of the line of the kings of Ailech, over-kings of north-western Ireland, who in turn descended from famous High Kings of Ireland including Niall Glundubh [died c.920] and the legendary Niall of the Nine Hostages [died c.450] from whom Afraig [died c.1270] the mother of Cailean Mór ancestor of the Campbells is also meant to descend. Ánrothán was the grandson of Flaithbertach an Trostáin or ‘of the Pilgrim’s staff’ [died c.1036] so called as he had undergone a pilgrimage to Rome
