Notes

!SOURCE: Rev. Dr. Donald MacKinnon and Alick Morrison, THE MACLEODS--THE GENEALOGY OF A CLAN, Section II, Edinburgh, The Clan MacLeod Society, 1968, pp. 81-82. Is mentioned by James Boswell in connection with his own and Dr. Johnson's visit to Corrichatachan, Skye. After his return to London, Dr. Johnson sent her a copy of RASSALAS as a gift. She married, in 1788, John MacPherson, Uvia, Badenoch. Mrs. Grant of Laggan, writing from Fort Augustus, on 5th June 1776, says: 'We have had a visit from the new married couple, who are, doubtless, oddly matched. . . . She is the person whom Johnson mention in his Tour . . . . She looks much up to that surly sage, and receives letters and presents of books from him'. Isabella and John Macpherson had issue, a son, Martin, who died young.
