After Robert the Bruce gifted the Campbell clan the MacGregor’s land, the MacGregors relocated to Glenstrae and is said to have survived by cattle rustling. Persecution of the MacGregors continued until the clan was outlawed in 1603 were King James VI banished the name and many of the clan were forced to change to Murray, King, Grant and other names to avoid death.
