About Me
- The McConkey's
- This name McCONKEY was derived from the Gaelic MacDhonnchaidh 'the son of Duncan'. The Clan Donnachie, better known as Clan Robertson of Athol are so named from 'Fat Duncan' de Atholia who lived at the time of Robert the Bruce. There was an old sept of Macconochies in Bute, and of seventy five persons holding lands there in 1506, six were of this name. In addition to the Clan Donnachie or Robertsons there are three Argyllshire families that were known as MacDhonnachie. There was MacConchie of Inverawe, an old sept of the Campbells. The Macconnachies of Meadowbank in Midlothian were descended from them. Secondly MacDhonnachie Mhor or Campbell of Duntroon, and lastly MacDhonnachie or Campbell of Glenfeochan. Angus M'Conchie witnessed a charter in 1493, and Huchon McConzochquy was part tenant of Kynnard Ross in 1505. Archibald Machhonzie de Leragis appears as one of an inquest in 1510. Patrick M'Conquhy was a witness at Kingarth Bute in 1534, and Eugene McConiquhy held a sasine of land there in 1560. Duncan McKihonchy was enrolled among the fencible men of Argyll in 1682.
