Notes - "[C]called 'Mor' or 'Big,' from whom his descendants have derived the patronymic MacCalein Mor, is in a sense the true eponymus of the family.[…] He was one of those named by Robert Bruce, the Competitor, in 1291, as supporters of his claim to the Crown of Scotland.[…] He was slain about the year 1296 in a contest with his powerful neighbour the Lord of Lorne, at a place called the String of Lorne, where a cairn still marks the spot, and was buried at Kilchrenan on Lochawe, at the church of St. Peter the Deacon, where his tombstone may still be seen." [The Scots Peerage, citation details below]
His wife is said by Burke's to have been Afraig a Charraig.
