• Notes

  The word "mor" means "large" or "great" in Gaelic. Badenoch is on the River Spey. John Mor McIntosh was descended from the Borlum branch of the Clan McIntosh in Scotland. His family were gentleman farmers and were "highly connected" in the Scottish Highlands. He was persuaded by his uncle to take part in the Rebellion of 1715 against the House of Hanover. When the Pretender was put down, John lost his property and decided to come to Georgia. He sailed in the Prince of Wales, leaving October 20, 1735, arriving in Georgia January 10, 1736. His arms are a lion in one quarter; a dexter hand fesseways couped at the wrist and holding a human heart in the second quarter; azure with a boar head's couped in the third; and a lymphiad surmounted by two oars in saltire in the fourth. The crest is a cat, a mountain salient guard. The supporters are two cats. The Motto over the cat reads: Touch not the cat but with a glove." Sources: Buddy L.
