=== Life Sketch ===
Aoife, known to the English as Eva, was born in the mid 11th C., the daughter of Paul MacDuibhn and Marion Godfrey. Her father Paul was treasurer to the Kings Duncan Ist and his son, Malcolm of Scotland.
Following her father's death, her uncle Arthur Cruachan became her guardian.
She married her cousin Gillespie, whose father, Malcolm MacDuibhn had married the heiress of Cambus-bellus in Normandy. In memory of their Norman origins, descendants of Eva and Gillespie took the name "Campbell" [1]
children of Gillespie and Aoife O’Duibhne - [2] [3]
Duncan Campbell d. in 1097; m. Diorbahil - Dorvail (Dorothy) MacFiachir, dau. of Dugald Cruachan Thane of Over Lochow; issue (surname Campbell): Cailen (bald good) “Maol Math” Chief of Clan MacDuine (–1110 in Dunstaffnage, Oban, Kilmore, Argyll).

. It is possible that the story of the genealogists may be true; they declare that the predecessors of the Argyll family, on the female side,were possessors of Lochawe in Argylshire, as early as 404 AD. Of this, however, there is no proof worthy of the name.
The first of therace who comes prominently into notice is one Archibald (also called Gillespie) Campbell, as likely as not we think, to be a gentleman of Anglo-Norman lineage, who lived in the 11th century. He acquired the lordship of Lochawe, by marriage with Eva, daughter and heiress of Paul O'Duin, Lord of Lochow, denominated Paul Insporran, from his being the king's treasurer.
Another Gillespe is the first of the house mentioned in authentic history, his name occurring as a witness of the charter of the lands of the burgh of Newburgh by Alexander III in 1246.
It is also quite likely that Eva O'Duin was a king's ward and on that account her hand would be in the king's gift; and who so likely to receive it as a trusted knight, connected with the district, and one whose loyalty was unquestioned. .
