The village of Mabou from Isaac Smith’s. The Gaels who came to
Mabou are mostly from Lochaber; indeed many are from in or near Glen
Roy, including the Rankins, Beatons (descendants of Alexander of
Skye), the Campbells, the Keppoch, Brunachen, Cranachan and
Bohuntine MacDonalds.

Baile Mhàbu bho àite Ìosaig Mhic a’Ghobhainn. ‘S ann a Lochabar a bha
na Gàidheil a thainig an seo cha mhòr uile; gu dearbh, ‘s ann bho
Ghleann Ruaidh ‘s a choimhearsnachd a thainig Clann ‘ic Raing, na
Peutanaich (sliochd Alasdair Sgitheanaich), na Caimbeulaich agus
Dòmhnallaich na Ceapaich, Bhrunachain, Chranachain agus Bhoth-
Chunndain.
