Macdonell, Angus Ban

tenant of Muniall (1744-1822), emigration leader. (Angus Ban Macdonell of Muniall) Born in Scotland. He was tenant of Muniall on the Barisdale estate, western Inverness-shire, Scotland. He was one of the leaders of the 1786 emigration from Scotland to GC. In this role, though he was evidently less important than Angus Macdonell of Sandaig, he ranks as one of the founders of Glengarry. He settled in Charlottenburgh Township. He has a gravestone, restored 1986, in St. Raphael’s cemetery. He may have been the same person as Angus Ban McDonald who was the father of Big Finnan of the Buffalo Mcdonald, John Mcdonald le Borgne, and Col. James Mcdonald of the Glen.
