The Clan Gregor is associated with Balquhidder in most people’s minds as
Rob Roy lived there and is buried in the kirkyard. The Clan MacLaren or
MacLaurin is also associated with Balquhidder but neither clan has
their origins in the Glen. The Stewarts in Balquhidder descend from a
son of the 15th century Duke of Albany. Fergusons and Macintyres also
lived in the glen. "Peter Lawrie"
