   Two John Camerons, Gaelic bards, from Ba

   I believe there were two Gaelic bards called John Cameron from the   
   Ballachulish/Glencoe district of Scotland.  One is famous for his song   
   "Chi Mi Na Morbheanna" and the other is known for his song "Gleann   
   Baile Chaoil".  I have data on the author of "Chi Mi Na Morbheanna";   
   he was referred to as Iain Og Rob and died unmarried in November 1898   
   at the age of 76.   
      
   I have no data on the author of  "Gleann Baile Chaoil" and would   
   appreciate any information on this bard who seems to belong to a much   
   later generation than the former.
