The Gunns of Braehour are important as they provide the ongoing, traditional Clan Gunn Chief line.John Gunn of Braehour, the key person in this text, was the son of Alexander Gunn of Dalnaglaton whose elder brother was George Gunn from whom came the Clan Gunn Chiefs of the 1800s but this line died out of Gunns. These Clan Gunn Chiefs were established by the supreme court of Scotland, the Court of Session. The mother of Alexander and George was Margaret Gunn who was a daughter of Chief Donald Crotach Gunn and John Gunn (of the Borrobol / William Beag Gunn line). The College of Arms in London has certified the author’s descent from Alexander Gunn of Dalnaglaton so the lineage is legally proven. The 2015 invention of a Clan Gunn Chief was wrong for many reasons including being based on the assumption that it was not possible to prove descent back to the traditional Clan Gunn Chief line.This text mainly provides biographies, some in detail but some less so, of significant Braehour Gunns or people closely linked to them. Some genealogy is provided to show how these lives link to John Gunn of Braehour.The main lives are -John Braehour Gunn 1721 - 1810Donald Braehour and Brawlbin Gunn 1765 - 1861 (son)John Gunn of Durness 1808 - 1885 (grandson)Barbara Gunn 1810 - 1844 (granddaughter)Captain Alexander Gunn of Braehour 1814 - 1900 (grandson)Hon. Donald Gunn of Manitoba, Canada 1797 - 1878 (grandson)William Gunn of Waranga Park, Victoria, Australia 1804 - 1888 (grandson)Donald Gunn of Brawlbin and Ballarat, Victoria, Australia 1832-1901 (great grandson)Hon John Alexander Gunn, New South Wales, Australia 1860-1910 (great great grandson)Other lives linked to the Braehour Gunns are discussed, namely -James Miller 1826-1918 (with a focus on Melbourne, Victoria, Australia); Sir John Gunn of Tormsdale 1837-1918 and Marcus Gunn 1842-1899 (being a brother of Sir John Gunn.)Further information concerning the Braehour Gunns can be found at https://www.facebook.com/ClanGunn1 and https://clangunn1.blogspot.com
