Incorrect Entry.[edit]

The Bannatyne Manuscript which deals with the history of the clan Macleod was written by Dr. Bannatyne William Macleod of the Macleods of Glendale in Skye. BSTKID (talk) 16:33, 5 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]

BSTKID, if this is believed to be so by historians we need citations to reliable sources proving it. Blythwood (talk) 22:13, 6 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]
- I've reworked things to include Bannatyne William Macleod. Seems like both he and Lord Bannatyne have been credited with authorship.--Brianann MacAmhlaidh (talk) 02:15, 8 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]

You can cite a dead authors speculation to your hearts content, it won't make this entry correct. The Bannatyne MS is in the handwriting of Dr. Bannatyne Macleod of the Glendale family, the MS was long in that family's possession. The official genealogies of the Clan Macleod state this. Here is a page with the correct information, oh and don't worry there are citations:
