• The following press release explains how the Campbells of Glenorchy are not biologically related to the Campbells of Argyll within the timeframe of surnames, based on Y-DNA evidence. Additionally, the Campbell DNA Project Team has used Y-DNA samples from other participants to narrow down the NPE, with reasonable certainty, to the likely generation of Duncan Campbell, 2nd of Glenorchy. We have DNA signatures under Duncan's father Sir Colin Campbell, 1st of Glenorchy that match Argyll, but the DNA under his son Duncan Campbell, 2nd of Glenorchy matches the separate line as discussed in the press release.https://www.strath.ac.uk/studywithus/centreforlifelonglearning/genealogy/geneticgenealogyresearch/scottishclansandfamilies/campbellfamily/
