Pedair na Cluain Bige was born in 1247, the 3rd son of a Highland Chieftain. He joined the Tail of the Earl of Lennox in 1263, just in time to get wounded in the battle of Larges. He became interested in the new art of Heraldry, which led to him being chosen as one of those sent to Brittany to escort the beautiful Yolande de Dreux, Duchess of Brittany, back to Scotland to marry Alexander III. Pedair remained in Queen Yolandes household when she returned to Brittany after the death of Alexander.

Whenever he called at an English port he had been known to do the odd favour for Walsingham, the Queens Minister. One of his trips took him to Italy carrying Kit Marlow.
