Chieftaincy line of Clan Dougal Ciar

The line of chieftains of Clan Dougal Ciar, generations I to XII. Only people who held the chieftaincy are shown - plus the eponym Dubhgall Ciar at the top, and Rob Roy as the third son of Donald Glas (V) whose descendants supplied chieftain XII when the senior line failed in 1897. Cadet branches, daughters and the side-tree the proscription cut down are pruned. Dates and lineage drawn from the Clan Gregor genealogy at Glen Discovery.¹
