Weem

In 1502
Scotland
Clan Stewart
Raided the Castle
Menzies at Weem and
One of the clans allied to
The Stewart’s were the clan MacDonalds of Glencoe which
May explain way/why the DNA of
Descendants of the Menzies have
A DNA marker from Somerled the
Norse-Gaelic Lord of Argyll and
The Western Isles in the 1100s
Whose descendants were the
Same MacDonalds in that
Raid on Castle Menzies
At Weem and may have
Left a permanent DNA
Marker in the Menzies
Descendants making
The post-1502 raid
Menzies line from
Norway rather
Than from
Normans
Or Normandy.
We will never know
What happened in that
Raid other than a fire in the
Lower floor of the castle
Which is typical of our
Limited knowledge
Of what really
Happened in
The night
Raid on
Weem
Castle
Menzies.
