Thanks for replying Steven,

I can't find anything for the connection to Clan MacFarlane either. But I did find this on Ulster Ancestry: A Sample of Irish Family Names (http://www.ulsterancestry.com/irish-surnames.html):
---------------------------------------------------
ROBB

Origins in Ulster: Scottish Plantation

The name is Scottish and more properly MacRobb from Robb the Scottish pet name for Robert.

The MacRobbs of Duror in Argyll were a sept of the Stewarts of Appinn.

Other MacRobbs of Callander and Kilmadock in Perthshire were also early settlers.
