# Campbell of Barrichbeyan

The Campbells of Barrichbeyan form one of the branches of the Campbells of Craignish who in turn are a branch of the Clan Campbell, a Scottish clan in Argyll, Scottish Highlands. They claim descent from Donald McEan Gorm Campbell, the 10th Laird of Craignish, 11th Chieftain of Craignish & 1st Baron Campbell of Barrichbeyan, himself second son of John Ean Gorm Campbell, 9th Laird of Craignish. His descendants retained Barrichbeyan and bought back the greater part of the estate of Craignish between 1550 and 1680. Beside the main line established in Craignish there were also cadet lines, Campbells of Lagganlochan and Campbells of Ballachlavan, later producing another cadet line, Campbells of Askomel.
