?neas signed the bond of Manrent given by the Chief of Mackintosh in 1609, by the heads of the various banches of the Clan Chattan.
---
Bean was succeeded by his son, Angus, who signed the Band of Union among Clan Chattan in 1609 as "Ay mac Bean vie Robert of Tordarroch, for himself and taking the full burden of his race of Clan Ay." As already mentioned, the fact of his signing this band, in common with the chieftains of the other clans forming the confederacy of Clan Chattan, shows that the Shaws of Tordarroch had already attained the position of a distinct sept under their own chieftain, who was directly subordinate to the chief of Mackintosh, the head of the whole confederacy. --- Angus also appears? as Angus Mac Bean? in a Stent Boll of the Parish of Inverness dated the last day of March 1634, in which he is rated at 25 merks for each plough of his lands of Knocknageal. In addition to Tordarroch he was proprietor of part of the Leys in the parish of Inverness, and in a Valuation Boll of 1644 his holding in this parish is valued at ?110 3s. 4:d. Scots, while Tordarroch in Dunlichity Parish is set down as worth only ?61 6s. 8d. Scots. Wester Leys continued in possession of the Shaws down to the beginning of the present century.

Angus married Agnes FRASER OF FARRALINE about 1618 in Scotland. Agnes (daughter of Thomas FRASER, 3rd of Farraline and Janet MACPHERSON, of Cluny) was born about 1595 in Kinchyle, Scotland; and died. [Group Sheet] [Family Chart]
