Roger Allen
Born in Strathnairn, in Invernesshire, Scotland, in 1719, Lachlan McGillivray (or M'Gillivray) belonged to the ancient Scottish Clan Chattan, traditionally headed by the McIntosh family. Members of the clan migrated to Charlestown (later Charleston), South Carolina, in the 1720s, and several achieved success in the Indian trade. According to some records, Lachlan sailed for Charleston, and then proceeded to Augusta, Ga., where his uncle, Farquhar McGillivray, was engaging in the Indian trade.
