Comments

After leaving Islay from Port Askaig on October 27th, 1808 the Alexander Campbell and his family sailed with others as far as Art Patrick, in the West Loch of Kintyre, where the wind failed. Laird Campbell of Art Patrick sent a large row boat to take the 24 passengers the rest of the way to Tarbert. Alexander rowed with others for the ten hour trip up to the landing. After a two mile portage over land, the family arrived in Tarbert, on the East Loch, on October 29th, 1809.
