(fl. 1790s), pioneer. (also known as Alexander MacLeod called Kenneth, and Kenneth Alexander MacLeod, and Kenneth MacLeod of Myle or Maoile, and Fear na Maoile: the Man from Myle) Born in Scotland. He was the tacksman of Myle (Maoile) and Killiesmore (Caolas Mor) in Glenelg, Scotland. He was the father of Alexander MacLeod, who with Kenneth and a relative Norman MacLeod (Big Norman) arranged the emigration from Scotland to GC in 1793-1794 of some 150 Highlanders (MacLeods, MacGillivrays and others). It has been reported, probably incorrectly, that a Mary MacLeod of his family, probably his daughter, married John Hay, the father of Fr George A. Hay who was for many years parish priest at St. Andrew’s.
