In the 16th Century, many of the MacInnes Clan moved to Sleat on the Isle of Skye.
All of Hugh's sons died violent deaths in the contest over the Chiefship of Clan Donald of Sleat.
•
The present chief of Clan Donald, Godfrey James Macdonald of Macdonald, and the present chief of Clan Macdonald of Sleat, Sir Ian Godfrey Bosville Macdonald of Sleat, are both descendants of Hugh.
•
Sleat is pronounced "slate", and this is shown by an old saying within the McDonald clan, that "In the house of McDonald, the Sleats are on top."
