John (Cameron) Cameron IInd of Glendessary was born in Scotland.
Donald Cameron, 1st of Glendessary and unknown Campbell were the parents[1] of John Cameron, 2nd of Glendessary,[2] who was most likely born before his first wife, who was born in 1646, noting also that their child was born about 1660. The Red Books of Scotland list two wives:
Janet Maclean of Kinlochaline/Kingairloch, by whom they had Allan Cameron (1660-7 Dec 1721), 3rd of Glendessary and Acarhm[1] who married Christian Cameron, daughter of Sir Ewen Cameron of Lochiel, 28 Dec 1699[2]
(married 26 Jan 1680) Marjory/Marjorie Campbell, sister of Alexander Campbell of Lochnell, by whom they had Archibald Cameron (aft.1679-1719), 1st of Dungallon,[1] reported as the only son of John Cameron, 2nd of Glendessary by his second marriage[2]
Additional children from the Red Books of Scotland:[2]
Alexander Cameron, still living in 1708
Marjory (Cameron) MacDonald, who married John MacDonald of Sandaig
He died in 1695,[2] and his probate records are dated 1697.[3]
Research Notes
Red Books of Scotland has an index on the surname Cameron of Glendessary (Vol. 2), and also Cameron of Dungallon, but that has not yet been accessed.
Death location is based upon the filed records cited: National Records of Scotland, Argyll Commissary Court, Inventory of John Cameron of Glendessary in Morven parish of Killantoig.
First Wife Janet Maclean; second wife, Marjorie Campbell.

The previous death information was conflated with the estate inventory and cure dates. Though the documentation is copied from a source, it is able to be reproduced in the images described in the Red Book of Scotland,[4] and also attached at: 1697 Cameron, John (Wills and testaments Reference CC2/5/4.

The John Cameron who married Kathrine Nckeller (who also has a duplicate) is a different John Cameron (profile to be built). The John (Cameron) Cameron IInd of Glendessary (bef.1646-abt.1695) of this present profile only had two marriages, which are described with cited sources on the profile to be unduplicated.
None of the source citations show a middle name of Archibald, nor the spelling Johne.
Citations unable to be reproduced and also without clarity on identifying the correct John Cameron (note that above, one or two FHL Film Numbers may lead to a direct citation, but need examination to determine if they square with the Red Book of Scotland, which is considered seminal genealogy on the correct identification of John Cameron 2nd of Glendessary (see also profile to be de-duplicated: John (Cameron) Cameron IInd of Glendessary (bef.1646-abt.1695) for additional source citations:

Cameron-11982 and Cameron-7347 appear to represent the same person because: this John Cameron was conflated with a John Cameron who married Cathrine Nckeller. The corrected John Cameron of Glendessary is sufficiently described in accepted full citations on the profile that should be main, including only two marriages, neither of which were Chatrine Nckeller.
