@sirdaniel1975 -- I did some additional research on the MacPherson clan in my making of the tune, "Maids of Arrochar." Check out my KelticDead Broadsides on my website. Thank you for your interest in the KelticDead.

Seriously...It's McPherson, not McPhearson. Say "FER" out loud. What sound does it make? Like FUR not FEAR! When will people get it right?

@AnnaMariaMc

Thank you AnnaMariaMc. I believe if you check the spelling, it is the way you described.

I wasn't trying to be mean or anything really. It's just one of my biggest pet peeves when someone mispronounces my last name haha
