!SOURCE: Rev. Dr. Donald MacKinnon and Alick Morrison, THE MACLEODS -- THE GENEALOGY OF A CLAN, Section III, "MacLeod Cadet Families", Edinburgh, The Clan MacLeod Society, 1970, p. 212. Rev. Alexander, M.A., minister of Portree, Skye. He was born in 1770 and studied for the ministry at King's College, Aberdeen, where he graduated M.A. in 1788. He was appointed schoolmaster of Portree on 17th May 1791 and 8 years later he became minister in the same place, and remained there until his death, which was caused by a fall from the top of the stair in his manse, on 15th February 1811. According to the old Fasti, Mr. Campbell's erudition was varied and extensive, his liberality and benevvolence were great, while his amiable qualities in private and social life, as well as his strict and conscientious discharge of his office and the circumstances of his death, caused a deep lamentation among the 'parishoners'. He married Margaret, daughter of Dr. William MacLeod, 8th of the MacLeods of Glendale, with issue.
