Domhnall mac Alasdair was a son of
Alasdair Mór mac Domhnaill, and a member of
Clann Domhnaill. Domhnall is attested by the fifteenth-century manuscript
National Library of Scotland Advocates' 72.1.1
MS 1467, earlier known as MS 1450, is a mediaeval Gaelic manuscript which contains numerous pedigrees for many prominent Scottish individuals and clans. Transcriptions of the genealogies within the text were first published in the early 19th cent ...
(also known as 1467 MS and 1450 MS). He may be identical to
Domhnall of Islay. The latter's attestations suggest that he was a contestant to the Clann Domhnaill lordship, and may have possessed the
chiefship.
