Hi all!
Been in “lurk” mode for awhile but I’ve got a clan/sept question I hope someone can answer.
I recently learned that one of my ancestors was a highlander by the name of John McReynolds in the late 1600’s. He joined the British Army and moved to Ireland in the 1680’s.
There’s not a McReynolds clan, but I see it associated as a sept for MacDonald of Clanranald, as well as MacDonell Of Keppoch.
Does my ancestor’s surname alone indicate a connection to one of these clans?
