Séamus Mac Dòmhnuill aka Sir James MacDonald, 9th of Dunnyveg ({{lang-gd|Séamus Mac Dòmhnuill}}) (died 1626), was the last lord of Clan MacDonald of Dunnyveg or Clan Donald South.

Biography

He was a son of Angus MacDonald, 8th of Dunnyveg. He was a hostage and imprisoned a number of times in his lifetime. He was knighted Sir James of Knockrinsay. At the Battle of Traigh Ghruinneart on the Isle of Islay in 1598, he led forces against Sir Lachlan Mor MacLean, 14th Chief of Duart. James was wounded in battle but his forces killed MacLean.[1]

Mac Dòmhnuill then fought Hector Og Maclean, 15th Chief who sought revenge for the death of his father in the Battle of Benbigrie.[2][3]

Mac Dòmhnuill fled to Spain and after returning from exile, he was given a pension from King James VI of Scotland and lived in London, never visiting Scotland again and died in London in 1626. He was buried in St. Martins Church, London.

Family

He married Margaret, daughter of Sir John Campbell of Cawdor, without issue. He supposedly fathered a son Donald Gorm, to an unknown woman. (need citation)

The followers of the chief of MacLean, upon this occasion, considerably outnumbered the MacDonalds; but Sir James, well aware that he need hope for no reconciliation with his enraged kinsman, told his followers that in a resolute resistance alone existed any hope of safety to themselves or of protection to their homes. The MacDonalds, goaded to desperation by a knowledge of these facts, fought with uncontrollable fury, and it was not until the heights of Benbigrie were covered with their slain, and their chief carried off the field dangerously wounded, that their assailants succeeded in routing them. |isbn= }}
