About The MacKellar Ancient Tartan
Clan MacKellar is a Highland Scottish clan with ancestral ties to Argyll, particularly in the lands around Knapdale. The name is believed to come from the Gaelic "Mac Ealair", meaning "son of Hilary" or "son of the learned one."
Historical records show that the MacKellars were closely associated with Clan Campbell, often serving as loyal followers and landholders under their protection. Though not one of the larger clans, the MacKellars were respected for their service and skill, often holding positions of trust.
One notable figure was Archibald MacKellar, who served as Chamberlain of Knapdale in the 17th century.
