'''Sir Hector Og Maclean''' (1583&ndash;1623), or '''Eachann Óg Maclean''' in [[Scottish Gaelic]], was the 15th [[Clan Chief]] of [[Clan Maclean]] in [[Scotland]].<ref name=etc/>
==Early years==
He was born in 1583, the son of [[Sir Lachlan Mor Maclean]] the 14th Clan Chief.<ref name=etc/><ref name=electric/> His father, Sir Lachlan, was killed in the [[Battle of Traigh Ghruinneart]]. Hector, then twenty years old, was then made Chief of [[Clan Maclean]]. His first act was to retaliate against [[Clan MacDonald]] for the death of his father.<ref name=etc/>
==Battle of Benbigrie==
He obtained a [[commission of fire and sword]] against the [[MacDonalds of Islay]], and summoned the [[Clan Mackinnon|Chief of the Clan Mackinnon]], [[MacLeod of Dunvegan]], and [[MacNeil of Barra]] to his assistance in 1598 at the [[Battle of Benbigrie]].
The Chief of the [[Camerons of Lochiel]] joined this force with his clan. The united clans, fully equipped, proceeded to [[Islay]]. [[Sir James MacDonald, 9th of Dunnyveg]], in anticipation of this movement on the part of the young [[Lord of Duard]], mustered together the whole gathering of Islay and [[Kintyre]], and prepared himself for a conflict which he had reason to believe would be of a sanguinary nature. The hostile parties met at a place called [[Benbigrie]], and as neither felt disposed to offer nor to accept terms, the result was an immediate battle. The followers of the [[Chief of Clan MacLean]], upon this occasion, considerably outnumbered the MacDonalds; but [[Sir James MacDonald, 9th of Dunnyveg]], well aware that he need hope for no reconciliation with his enraged kinsman, told his followers that in a resolute resistance alone existed any hope of safety to themselves or of protection to their homes. The [[Clan MacDonald|MacDonald]]s, goaded to desperation by a knowledge of these facts, fought with uncontrollable fury, and it was not until the heights of [[Benbigrie]] were covered with their slain, and their chief carried off the field dangerously wounded, that their assailants succeeded in routing them. Overwhelmed by numbers the unfortunate MacDonalds were at length obliged to give way and fly in the utmost confusion, not knowing whither, neither mountain nor valley afforded them shelter from their victorious pursuers. A few, however, carrying with them their wounded chief, made their way to [[Kintyre]], leaving Islay a prey to the ruthless invaders.<ref name=etc/>
For three days the allied clans pursued the work of destruction with remorseless barbarity throughout the island. Every human habitation was burned to the ground; and the poor inhabitants were left to seek their only shelter in caves and clefts of rocks among the mountains, without fuel and without food. The career of the merciless victors only ceased when the work of destruction was complete. The Chief of the [[Camerons of Lochiel]] had the satisfaction of taking [[Hector MacLean of Lochbuie, 9th Chief]], who aided the MacDonalds against his own chief, with several of his followers, [[prisoners of war]], and detained them in chains for six months. [[Hector MacLean of Lochbuy]], however, soon after had ample opportunity of being even with the Chief of the [[Camerons of Lochiel]]. Of all the conflicts between these two clans, this, the last, was the most sanguinary and destructive. The MacLeans and their confederates no doubt felt themselves justified in executing signal vengeance upon their enemies, for the treachery displayed during the [[Battle of Traigh Ghruinneart]], and the loss there of so distinguished a chief. They were also forced to make the destruction as complete as possible, for the conduct of [[Sir James MacDonald, 9th of Dunnyveg]] had made him popular with his clan, and his actions had met their approval. However deplorable may have been the loss of life, and the sufferings endured by the innocent and helpless, the result was to put a final and effectual end to the struggle between the contending clans. Ever after the [[Battle of Benbigrie]] the MacLeans and MacDonalds laid aside their animosities, and lived on the happiest terms of friendship and reciprocal good will. In the year 1599, [[James VI of Scotland]], finding the Royal [[Exchequer]] still in a depleted condition, again turned his eyes toward the [[Western Isles]], and decided that the chiefs should be mulcted in a sufficient amount to meet his demands, so he appointed a new commission of lieutenandry over the whole Isles and Highlands of [[Inverness-shire]], which was granted to the [[Ludovic Stewart, 2nd Duke of Lennox]] and [[George Gordon, 1st Marquess of Huntly]], the latter having been recently restored to favor. Although the official document, which sets forth the reasons for the action of the king, gives a shocking picture of the Islesmen, yet this clause establishes the true import of the commission: "And besides all their other crimes, they rebelliously withhold from his Majesty a great part of the patrimony and proper rent of the crown, deprive the country of the benefit which might redound thereto, by the trade of fishing, and of other commodities which these bounds render." And now, at last, a great part of them have banded, conspired, and daily practice, by force and policy, in their barbarous and rebellious form, to disappoint his Majesty's service in the Lewis. As to the extent which this lieutenandry was acted upon is now uncertain. It is positive, however, that as a matter of justice, but little was due the crown from rents, and the amount demanded was beyond the ability of the chiefs to meet. In 1601, another commission of lieutenandry was granted to the same parties; the South of [[Argyleshire Isles]] included under the immediate charge of Lennox. These lieutenants were charged to assist certain colonists who would be better able greatly to augment the king's rents. Power was given them to use force and pursue the Islesmen with fire and sword. Rewards were offered these commissioners for the faithful performance of the duty assigned to them.<ref name=etc/>
==Forfeiture of his estates==
Acting upon his authority, the [[George Gordon, 1st Marquess of Huntly]], who had charge of the northern districts, summoned a convention of estates, to meet at [[Stirling, Scotland]] within a given period, under a penalty of forfeiture against an absentee, but many of the northern chiefs, from the distance they had to travel, and the limited period allowed for their appearance, were unable to be in attendance on the day appointed. As Hector Og Maclean owned the lands of [[Garbhghambluch]], in [[Lochaber]], he started at once for [[Stirling]]. On arriving there, he met [[George Gordon, 1st Marquess of Huntly]] on the street early on the morning that his name was to be called. After [[George Gordon, 1st Marquess of Huntly]] had saluted him, MacLean asked him if he thought he would have time to change his clothes before the roll would be called. Huntly answered he had plenty of time. On repairing to his lodging, Hector learned the convention was in session, and immediately hurried to the assembly, and on arriving there found his name had been called. On parting with Hector in the street, Huntly went direct to the convention, and determined at once to put in execution the threat he had uttered against [[Sir Lachlan Mor Maclean]], on account of the latter's proposal to bring [[George Gordon, 1st Marquess of Huntly]] dead or alive, the night after the [[Battle of Glenlivat]]; so he ordered MacLean's name called at once, and as the latter was not present, Huntly immediately applied for the forfeit, procured it, and is still in the possession of it. All the friends and interest that Hector could make, or bring to bear on the king, were never able to reverse the sentence, as Huntly always made great opposition. Thus he felt himself amply revenged on the son of [[Sir Lachlan Mor Maclean]].<ref name=etc/> Hector Og Maclean died in 1623.<ref name=etc/>
==Marriage and children==
Maclean's first marriage was to [[Janet Mackenzie of Kintail]], the second daughter of [[Colin Cam Mackenzie of Kintail]]<ref name=boydell>{{cite book |title=Scotland's Historic Heraldry |year= 2006|publisher=[[Boydell Press]] |quote=A particularly interesting Scoto-Swedish family (Chart 20.4), whose members remained in touch with their Highland cousins, is that of MacLean or Macklier.... | url=https://books.google.com/books?id=QFkI3G31HTMC&q=%22Johan+Macklier%22&pg=RA1-PA521 |isbn=1-84383-261-5 }}</ref><ref name=etc/><ref name=geni/> They had two sons:

If she was the daughter of Sir Archibald Acheson she would be born no earlier than 1610 and would have been at least 20 years younger than Hector Og Maclean.

Clarke & Company |quote=Hector Mor was succeeded by his brother Lachlan, seventeenth chieftain, and first baronet, who came into possession under the most favorable circumstances. The clan had long been at peace, all its forces well recruited and just as loyal to its chief as at any time in its previous history. Lachlan had power and influence sufficient to guard him against open attack from any enemy in his immediate neighborhood, possessing the favor of the king (Charles I.) as some security against treacherous misrepresentations at court, he had nothing to fear from open or secret enmity; and his irreconcilable foe, Archibald Campbell, who became eighth earl of Argyle in 1638 (although he enjoyed the estate for many years before, as his father had been proclaimed an outlaw), and afterward marquis, but known as Gillespie Gruamach (Archibald the morose), made many attempts to entrap him in his coils. This Argyle was by far the ablest of his family that has ever lived, and a man greatly to be feared. As he is a prominent figure in this period of Scotland's history, it will be of importance to give an estimate of his character, especially when it is considered what two successive chiefs of MacLean had to contend against. Browne says of him : " There is nothing in his conduct which can be justified by the impartial historian. Duplicity, cunning, cowardice, and avarice, were his characteristic traits. His zeal for religion and the covenant was a mere pretense 'to enable him to obtain that ascendancy among the covenanters which he acquired, and his affected patriotism was regulated entirely by his personal interests." Again: "Argyle's talents were more fitted for the intrigues of the cabinet than the tactics of the field." "A man equally supple and inflexible, cautious and determined, and entirely qualified to make a figure during a factious and turbulent period."  "Argyle was the head of a party as well as the head of a tribe. Possessed of two different kinds of authority, he used each of them in such a way as to extend and fortify the other." This Argyle not only asserted the cause of Charles II., and placed the crown on his head (January 1, 1651), but afterward assisted in the ceremony of proclaiming Cromwell Protector, and signed an engagement to support the usurper's government. On the restoration of the monarchy, he again faced about and hastened to London to congratulate Charles on his success. When James Graham, the great Montrose, was led to execution, and while the people were weeping at the sight of fallen greatness and invoking the blessings of heaven upon the head of the illustrious ... Sir Lachlan MacLean was married to Mary, second daughter of Sir Roderick MacLeod of MacLeod, by whom he had issue two sons and three daughters. Hector, his heir and successor, and Allan.
