Carter-Campbell of Possil or Campbell of Possil is a branch of the Scottish clan Clan Campbell.[23]

History

Campbell of Possil

This family is descended from Sir Colin Campbell of Glenorchy, Earls of Breadalbane[24] (see that title). Sir Colin was the second son of Duncan Campbell, 1st Lord Campbell who was Uncle and Guardian of Colin 1st Earl of Argyll in 1453 (see Campbell Dukes of Argyll[25]). See Burke's Landed Gentry of Great Britain 19th edition volume I, The Kingdom of Scotland. See also Campbell Barons Colgrain and Campbell of Inverneill in this volume.

The family is a branch of the Campbells of Kinloch, an off shoot of the Campbells of Murthlie, who sprang from a younger son of Campbell of Lawers (see Burke's Peerage and Gentry).

Carter of Castle Martin

This family: Boyle Carter[26][27][28][29] and Shaen Carter[30][31][32] are descended from Carter of Shaen Manor, County Mayo[33] and the Carters of Robertstown,[29] County Meath[34][35] (see Burke's Irish Landed Gentry).

Motto

Fac et Spera

Translated from its Latin as "Do and Hope"

Union of the two Families

Campbell of Possil, Lanarkshire, Scotland coat of arms. Fac et Spera (Do and Hope).
Carter of Castle Martin (Castlemartin House and Estate), County Kildare, Ireland coat of arms.[citation needed] Victrix Patientia Duris (Patience is victorious in hardship).[citation needed]

This was the union of two land owning families,[63] the Carters of the Castle Martin estate, County Kildare, Ireland and the Campbells of the Possil estate, Lanarkshire, Scotland. Colonel Thomas Tupper Carter (Lord Lieutenant and Justice of the Peace, Argyllshire and grandson of the Rt. Hon Thomas Carter Master of the Rolls and son of Admiral John Carter R.N.) married Miss Emily Georgina Campbell of Possil IV (granddaughter[64] of Colonel Alexander Campbell of Possil[65][66]) in 1864. Their matrimonal home was the Fascadale estate,[67] Ardrishaig, Argyllshire. Miss Emily Georgina Campbell of Possil IV who owned the Possil estate also wished to retain her surname and Colonel Thomas Tupper Carter[68] therefore added the name of Campbell to his surname in 1864.[69]

  • Colonel Alexander Campbell of Possil[72][73] (painted by Sir Henry Raeburn).[74]

  • Mrs Alexander Campbell of Possil[75] Née Harriet Maclachan[citation needed] of Castle Lachlan,[76] Argyll[77] (see Clan Maclachlan painted by Sir Henry Raeburn[78]).[79]
  • John Campbell of Possil Esq.[80] and of Torosay Castle[81] (Duart House[82]) The Achnacroish Estate,[83] Isle of Mull[84] and his three wives: Elizabeth Campbell of Ballimore,[85] Helen Bogle Campbell of Colgrain[86] and Elizabeth[87] daughter of Donald Horne W.S.[88]

Torosay Castle, Isle of Mull

The Campbell of Possil coat of arms on the south elevation of Torosay Castle incorporates three bugles (horns). These were taken from the armorial bearings of John Campbell's third wife, Elizabeth Williamson, daughter of Donald Horne, but were never matriculated by the Lord Lyon of Scotland.

John Campbell of Possil[89] (nicknamed "The Dragoon")[90] who was the son of Colonel Alexander Campbell of Possil,[91][92] employed architect, David Bryce,[93] and built the castle on the Isle of Mull[94] on the Torosay estate[95][96] after acquiring it from his father[97][98] in 1858.[99]

The armorial bearings of the Campbells of Possil and the Crest, as shown above, are carved in stone[100] and displayed on each elevation of the castle walls.[100]
