The MacDonalds of Clanranald derive their name from Ranald, younger son of John, 1 Lord of the Isles. In 1373 he received a scholarship from the northern islands and other countries, and he climbed the families of Moidart, Morar, Knoidart and Glengarry.
In the 15th Century, there were violent clashes between the branches of Clan Donald and the beginning of the next century Clanranald received from John of Sleat, all properties of the latter. After the death of Ronald Bane, Director of the 5, clan, against the request of his son Ranald was elected to his cousin John of Moidart as chief. Fraser of Lovat support Ranald and John of Moidart, with Clanranald, Keppoch and Mac Donnell was supported by the Clan Cameron in the next fight. The campaign ended in the famous battle of blar-na-Leine (box of shirts) in 1544, so named because in the heat of the day, the combatants removed their tops, which allow them to fight more fiercely. Fraser was defeated and John of Moidart kept management and ownership of Clan Ranald. Juand forgave the regent John and his followers in 1555. He died in 1584.
