of Duart

[edit]
"Ever since Sir Lachlan Maclean, 17th Clan Chief, was created the Baronet of Maclean of Morvern in 1631, the chiefs have been styled Maclean of Duart and Morvern."

By whom? If the Baronet title was given for investing in Nova Scottia (see Maclean Baronets and Baronetage of Nova Scotia), then the Lairds may or may not have been styled "Maclean of Duart and Morvern" from that time. This needs a modern authoritative source (not one from the middle of the 19th century). NB the section heading of the article Maclean Baronets was changed from "Maclean Baronets, of Morvaren (or Morvern) (1631)" to "Maclean Baronets of Duart and Morvern (or Dowart and Morvern) (1631)"on 1 March 2009 presumably to bring it into line with this article.--PBS (talk) 11:15, 8 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]

How is this ('Maclean of Duart') a sept? 'Maclean of Duart' is the chief of the clan, right? The chief's family is certainly not a sept - it is the clan. Shouldn't this re-direct to the main clan article?--Celtus (talk) 09:44, 18 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]

merger

[edit]

since this is a stub, and refers to the Chief of Maclean, I propose it is merged with that article. this is in line with other clan articles. Tinynanorobots (talk) 05:30, 9 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]
