Lord of Clanranald

Lord of Clanranald refers to the Lordship of Clanranald in the Jacobite Peerage. On 28 September 1716 Ranald Macdonald, 15th chief of Clanranald, was created a Lord and Peer of Parliament as Lord of Clanranald, with remainder to his heirs male. On the same date, his sister-in-law Penelope Louisa, nee Mackenzie, the widow of his brother Allan, 14th chief of Clanranald, was created Lady Clanranald, also in the Jacobite Peerage, a title which became extinct on her death in 1743. As of 2009, the holder of the title created for the 15th chief is Ranald Alexander Macdonald, titular 10th Lord of Clanranald, 24th Chief and Captain of Clanranald.^[1][2]
