APPENDIX.

No. 13. ACCOUNT OF THE MACKINNON FAMILY. THIS Dr. Mackinnon (mentioned page 81, vol. 1,) was the second son of Lacklin More Mac'kinnon, chieftain of the powerful Highland clan of the Mac'Kinnons. He was the founder of the Mackinnon family in Antigua ; and as his estates in that island are still in the hands of his representative, Wm. Alex. Mackinnon, Esq., a short account of that gentleman's lineal descent, from the celebrated Dr. Mackinnon, may not prove superfluous.
