6. Gregor Patrickson GREGOR The Great 1 (Patrick Mhor MACGREGOR , Gregor MACGREGOR , Iain Dubh MACGREGOR , Iain Cam MACGREGOR , Gregor ) was born in 1460 in Scotland. He died in Scotland.

Patrick’s son, Malcolm, was compelled by the Campbells to sell the lands of Auchinrevach in Strathfillan to Campbell of Glenorchy, who thus obtained the first footing in Breadalbane, which afterwards gave the title of earl to his family.
