It is one of 32 council areas of Scotland.Wikipedia Article [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Subdivisions_of_Scotland#Council_areas| Council Areas], accessed 02 Dec 2019 Its boundaries include what once was all ofAberdeenshire (except Aberdeen), Kincardineshire and part of Banffshire. The old boundaries are still used, primarily for lieutenancy Wikipedia Article [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lieutenancy_areas_of_Scotland| Lieutenancy Areas of Scotland] and land registration. The County now borders Angus, Perth and Kinross on the south, Highland and Moray on the west, and the city of Aberdeen on the east. The County represents approximately 8% of Scotland’s territory. Wikipedia Article [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aberdeenshire| Aberdeenshire]. ===Historical Timeline=== In the time of the Romans, the land that later formed the counties of Aberdeen and Banff was the home of a possibly Pictish tribe known to Ptolomy as the Taixall. He therefore called their lands Taixalon. To the Romans, the major town in the district was known as Devana. Although there has been some historical conjecture regarding the location of Devana, it is now thought, based on archaeological evidence, to have been at Peterculter, now an outer suburb of Aberdeen. The Roman camp at Normandykes and Roman camps on the upper Ythan and Deveron support this assumption. However other than Roman marching camps there is no evidence of permanent occupation by the Romans in the county.Wikipedia Article [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aberdeenshire_(historic)#History| Aberdeenshire (historic county)] However, the presence of the Picts is found throughout the county and may indicate their presence before or after the Romans, or both. Their weems (earth-houses) occur fairly-commonly in the west. Relics of crannogs (lake-dwellings) exist at Loch Kinord, five miles (8 km) northeast of Ballater, at Loch Goul in the parish of New Machar, and elsewhere. Duns (forts) occur on hills at Dunecht, where the dun encloses an area of two acres (8,000 sq. meters), Barra near Old Meldrum, Tap o' Noth, Dunnideer near Insch, and other places. Monoliths, standing stones and "druidical" circles of their period abound, as do many examples of the sculptured stones of the early Christian epoch. Wikipedia Article [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aberdeenshire_(historic)#History| Aberdeenshire (historic county)] Efforts to convert the Picts started in the 5th century, and continued through Gaelic influence from Columba, who founded a monastery at Old Deer, Drostan, Maluog, and Machar.Wikipedia Article [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aberdeenshire_(historic)#History| Aberdeenshire (historic county)] Historically, Aberdeenshire consisted of five geographic districts: • '''Mar''', later an Earldom, which was mostly between the Dee and Don valleys, nearly covered the southern half of the county and included the city of Aberdeen (although the Earldom didn't). Wikipedia Article [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aberdeenshire_(historic)#Geography| Geography] • '''Formartine (Fermartyn)''', was originally a Thanage, but later gave the title of Viscount to the Earl of Aberdeen; lay between the lower Don valley and Ythan. It has a sandy coast, which is followed inland by a clay-like, fertile, tract. This is followed by a section of low hills, moors, mosses, and tilled land.Wikipedia Article [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aberdeenshire_(historic)#Geography| Geography] '''NOTE:''' Thane was the title given to a local royal official in medieval eastern Scotland, equivalent in rank to the son of an earl, who was at the head of an administrative and socio-economic unit known as a shire or thanage. Wikipedia Article: [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thane_(Scotland)| Thane] • '''Buchan''', later an Earldom, lay north of the Ythan. It comprised the north-east portion of the county and is next in size to Mar. Parts of the coast are bold and rocky, the interior is bare, low, flat, undulating and, in places, has peaty soil. Along the coast, about six miles (10 km) south of Peterhead, are the Bullers of Buchan; a basin in which the sea, entering by a natural arch, boils up violently in stormy weather. Buchan Ness is the most-easterly point of Scotland. Wikipedia Article [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aberdeenshire_(historic)#Geography| Geography] • '''Garioch''', later an Earldom; is in the centre of the county. It consists of a beautiful, undulating, loamy, fertile valley, formerly called the granary of Aberdeen.Wikipedia Article [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aberdeenshire_(historic)#Geography| Geography] It was in these lands that the Battle of Harlaw was fought in 1411. • '''Strathbogie''', is a large area south of Deveron that consists of hills, moors and mosses.Wikipedia Article [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aberdeenshire_(historic)#Geography| Geography] These were the lands of the Lord of Strathbogie but, as a result of marriage, later held by the Earl of Atholl. Traditionally, Aberdeenshire has been economically dependent on Agriculture, fishing and forestry, and their related industries. The development of the oil and gas industry over the last four decades has broadened the County’s base and caused a 50% increase in population growth.Wikipedia Article [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aberdeenshire| Aberdeenshire] '''Map Resources''' * [https://www.genuki.org.uk/big/sct/ABD/parishmap2] - GENUKI Aberdeen Parish Map * [http://visionofbritain.org.uk/maps/] - Historical Maps - A Vision of Britain Through Time *[https://www.ordnancesurvey.co.uk/election-maps/gb/] - Ordinance Survey Election Maps '''Genealogy Resources for Aberdeenshire:''' * [https://archive.org/details/inverurieearldom00daviuoft] - Inverurie and the earldom of the Garioch; a topographical and historical account of the Garioch from the earliest times to the revolution settlement.

Lord Saltoun, in his work on Frasers of Philorth, gives it as his opinion that in the twelfth century its representatives occupied the position of lay abbots of the Culdee monastery of Abernethy, in Strathearn, and that it may therefore be concluded that they were not among the Saxon or Norman immigrants who, at various periods, entered Scotland from the south, but were descended from some ancient Pictish or Scottish (Irish) source, or from some Scandinavian settler from the north. The first on record was a Hugh de Abernethy, who lived during the reigns of Alexander I., David I., and perhaps Malcolm. He appears to have died about the middle of the twelfth century. He had a son; Orm, styled son of Hugh, and probably succeeded his father as Lay Abbot of the monastery. He must have been born during the first half of the twelfth century. The arms depicted are those of Abernethy, Lord Abernethy. Please take care with arms; they are associated with an individual and not a family group. By grant Anernethy, Lord Saltoun bore these arms: {{Image|fileGraphics_for_Clan_Abernethy-1.png |alignl |sizem |captionAbernethy, Lord Saltoun }} Graphics associated with this clan can be found at, or uploaded to, [[:Space:Graphics for Clan Abernethy|this graphics page]].

[[Category: Scotland Project Managed FSPs]] ==Arbroath Managed Profiles Checklist== 1. Update the [https://www.wikitree.com/wiki/Space:Declaration_of_Arbroath_Nobility Arbroath team spreadsheet] to let everyone know you’re working on the profile. 2. Post a comment on the profile that you’ll be updating the profile and biography on behalf of the Scotland Project’s Arbroath Team. 3. Look at G2G posts, if any (top right of profile) and any Comments at the bottom of the page to familiarize yourself with any conflicts, etc. 4. Check the changes to see when it was last edited and by whom. If it was recently edited, especially by a member of the team, you might check with them before proceeding, especially if there were conflicts with the PMs. 5. Check the profile’s Suggestions. 6. Search for Matches to check for possible merges. 7. Check categories, templates and stickers. Are they in the proper order? Can you add more categories? Correct Order is: * Categories * Project Boxes (NOTE: Arbroath signers must have 'Scotland|Arbroath' project box; parents of signers have 'Scotland"Arbroath|relation=ancestor'; spouses have 'Scotland|Arbroath|relation=wife'; descendants (within three generations) have 'Scotland|Arbroath|relation=descendant.') Make sure the Scotland Project is listed as a PM. *== Biography == * Stickers (NOTE: If there is a tartan/clan sticker on the profile, check whether it is an updated version. The old image will start with the words 'Clan Tartans', the new images begin with 'Scotland-Clan Tartans.' If an old sticker needs to be replaced, you can find the updated sticker [https://www.wikitree.com/wiki/Space:Scotland_-_Clan_Tartans here].) 8. Review biography as it is currently. Check for plagiarism and/or copy/pasting against (for example) Wikipedia and the Oxford Dictionary of National Biography. If it still feels as if it is copied from somewhere, pasting a sentence or two into the search bar sometimes yields results. Note: copy/paste of large chunks of text is not acceptable even if the website is acknowledged as a source. Quotes of a sentence or two (maximum) must be within quotation marks and the source cited in an inline reference. 9. Are the correct parents/spouse(s)/children attached to the profile? Discuss any proposed detachments or changes of family members with team members, and in the comments section of the profile (or better yet, in a G2G post). 10. Consider PPP status. Does the profile need PPP to stop inappropriate relationship changes? Is PPP there but superfluous? (A Leader needs to make this change. Default position is no PPP). 11. Check all the inline citations against the source material so far as you can, ensuring the data in the bio matches precisely to the info contained in the source. (Some sources may not be accessible to you.) *Make sure the source’s link in WikiTree is working and that the format of the citation is correct *Add quotation marks around anything that is a direct quote, or better yet, write it in your own words. * While you do this, you may want to re-write/expand the biography with more information from each source. 12. Check the sources under "See also". Is the citation style correct? (For examples of the correct formatting for sources, see [https://www.wikitree.com/wiki/Help:Sources here].) Are the links correct and working? Can that source be cited inline in the bio? Can more info be added to the bio from that source? 13. Remove Ancestry.com/FamilySearch indices, any online trees and note (or remove) questionable sources. They are not accepted/reliable sources for pre-1500 profiles. (Note: Links to individual sources on Family Search and Ancestry are acceptable, and although they should be checked, need not be removed). Remember that Find-a-Grave is not a reliable source for these profiles unless it includes a gravestone photograph. 14. Is there enough research done for a full and complete biography? If not, take some time to add more reliable sourcing and data to the biography. Even a quick Google search might yield some good results. 15. Compare dates/places in the profile’s data fields to the sourced entries in the biography. Are they the same? If not, adjust them. Make sure that any marriages sourced in the text are also in the data field. 16. Add headings to a longer biography where and when appropriate. 17. Add links to the WikiTree profiles of parents/spouses/children named in the biography, e.g.: [[Smith-123|John Smith]]. 18. Add a Research Notes section where appropriate, especially if there are contentious aspects to the biography or relationships. If there has been any major alteration to the “facts” as written before, note the reason for the changes and your sources. 19. Acknowledgements for gedcom imports or minor changes aren’t necessary as they can be seen in the changes tab. They can be removed completely or you may add something like: “Click the Changes tab to see edits to this profile. Thank you to everyone who contributed”. 20. Re-read the biography to ensure it is complete, flows well, and is properly sourced. Run a SPELL CHECK/grammar check just in case. 21. Check the images attached to the profile to ensure they are correct/ appropriate for that profile. Make sure the image is a public domain image and has a source attached, or that there is a clear statement of why the image can be used on WikiTree. If necessary, ask for a source in the profile’s comments section or look on WikiMedia, etc. and find one. Don’t detach an image unless it is attached to another profile, otherwise it will be purged from the system. Refer these images to a team or project leader instead. Remember that background images can distract from the text, and make it difficult for members with visual impairments to read the profile. Make sure that any background images used are as subtle as possible. 22. Are there lots of PMs associated with the profile apart from the Scotland Project? Ask your Team Leader or Project Coordinator to review who should be PM and who just on the Trusted List. (Some may have been inactive for years). 23. Update the Team spreadsheet ... you’re DONE!! Congratulations and thank you! 24. Pat yourself on the back ... you just improved our shared tree and many will be grateful for your hard work!

[[Category: Scotland Project Managed FSPs]] [[Category: Argyll, Scotland]] ==Argyll, Scotland== {{Image|file=Argyll_Scotland-1.jpg |size=250px |align=m |caption=Argyll }} :Coordinates:56.25, -5.25 :[https://www.google.com/maps/place/Argyll+and+Bute,+UK/@56.0398176,-5.5216784,8z/data=!4m2!3m1!1s0x488a2de603255eff:0x30c681a0642b0b0 Google Maps] {{Image|file=Argyll_Scotland.jpg |caption=Highland cow }} Argyll is on the western coast of Scotland. It is bounded on the north by Inverness-shire, on the east by the counties of Inverness, Perth, and Dumbarton, and on the south and west by the Firth of Clyde and the Atlantic Ocean. It is about 115 miles in extreme length and about 50 or 60 miles in average breadth, comprising an area, including the various islands connected with it, of about 3800 square miles. ===Kintrye=== {{Image|file=Scottish_Immigrant_Settlement_in_Winnebago_Illinois-1.png |caption=Map of Kintyre }} Kintyre is a peninsula in western Scotland, in the southwest of Argyll and Bute. The peninsula stretches about 30 miles (48 km), from the Mull of Kintyre in the south to East Loch Tarbert in the north. ===Name=== The name derives from Old Gaelic airer Goídel (border region of the Gaels). It is the region of western Scotland normally thought to correspond to most of the ancient Kingdom of Dál Riata. The history is noticed in the name and the name can also be translated as "Coast of [the] Gaels". Woolf, in his work "The Age of the Sea-Kings" has suggested that the name Airer Goídel came to replace the name Dál Riata when the 9th-century Viking invasion divided Dal Riata from its traditional homeland. The mainland area, renamed Airer Goídel, would have contrasted with the offshore islands of Innse Gall, literally "islands of the foreigners." In either case it suggests the boundary between the traditional Picts of Alba and the invasive Dal Riata from Ireland. === History=== {{Image|file=Argyll_Scotland-3.jpg |caption=Nether Largie standing stones in Kilmartin Glen, Argyll }} ====Ancient History==== Kilmartin Glen has ancient stones from pre-historic times and is one of Scotland’s most important sites. Dunadd was the capitol of Ancient Kingdom of Dalriada. Legend has it that the Stone of Destiny was used here in the crowning of the first Kings of Scotland. [https://www.historic-uk.com/HistoryMagazine/DestinationsUK/Kilmartin-Glen/ Kilmartin Glen] Historic UK ====Medieval History==== During the 2nd Century C.E. Gaelic speaking migrants from Ireland came into what is now Argyllshire. In the third century Cairbre Riada (or King Fergus) occupied the area which included parts of Ireland. ''Researchers found 12 per cent of men in Argyll and south Scotland carried the M222 chromosome, which is believed to have been brought over from Ireland from the fifth century, when Irish invaders crossed the North Channel. These men are believed by the researchers to be direct descendants of the first Irish High King – Niall Noigiallach.''

The eventual adoption of Roman Catholicism by Queen Margaret around 1070 ended the influence of the Celtic Church and of Argyll. ====Scandinavian Influence in Argyll==== Beginning in the 8th century Vikings began raiding Scotland coasts. In 802 the entire Iona community was murdered and plundered. Later Vikings came and settled in the area. In 1098 Magnus Barefoot, King of Norway, was granted most of Kintyre by King Edgar. {{Image|file=Argyll_Scotland-6.jpg |caption=James Logan, R. R. MacIan (ill.) The Clans of The Scottish Highlands. }} In the mid 12th century [[Macgillebride-1|Somerled]] Lord of Argyll, who was of Scottish and Norwegian heritage led a successful revolt against Norway, creating an independent kingdom that included Kintrye. He was killed while invading Renfrew, Scotland. His kingdom was divided up among his sons, ostensibly returning the area to Norwegian rule, but he is credited with weakening Norway’s hold on the area. Widespread DNA studies suggest that as many as 500,000 people living in Kintyre today are descended from Somerled.[https://www.undiscoveredscotland.co.uk/usbiography/s/somerled.html Somerled] Undiscovered Scotland In 1266 the Treaty of Perth returned Argyll to Scotland from Norway. ====Emigration==== {{Image|file=Scotland_Graphics-2.jpg |caption=Thomas Faed, The Last of the Clan (1865) }} After the failure of the last [[space:Jacobite_Risings_in_Scotland|Jacobite Rising]] in 1745, the Heritable Jurisdictions Act abolished regality, and inherited jurisdictions. One of the outcomes was that relationships between landlords and tenants became less about loyalty and more about profits and rents. There were mass evictions which led to large scale migration from the Highlands to the Lowlands and later to Canada, Australia, and the United States. See [[space:Scottish_Immigrant_Settlement_in_Winnebago_Illinois|Scottish Settlement in Argyle, Illinois]] for more about immigrants from Kintyre to Illinois in mid 19th century. ===Government=== In 1889 counties were formally established in Scotland and Argyll was granted a county council. In 1975 a local government district called Argyll and Bute was formed in the Strathclyde region, including most of Argyll and the adjacent Isle of Bute. {{Image|file=Argyll_Scotland-2.jpg |s=125px |caption=Tartan of Argyll }} ===Clans=== :'''CAMPBELL''' *[[Space:Clan_Campbell|Clan Campbell]] {{Image|file=Argyll_Scotland-12.jpg |caption= Inveraray Castle }} Inveraray Castle is the ancestral home of the Duke of Argyll, Chief of the Clan Campbell. :'''MACALISTER''' *[[space:Clan_MacAlister|Clan MacAlister]] In the 15th century the chief of the clan was seated in Kintyre, and the clan was centred there until the 18th century, when a chief sold the family estate in preference to a lowland estate. {{Image|file=Argyll_Scotland-17.jpg |caption=Glenbarr Abbey, Kintyre, Scotland }} Glenbarr Abbey on the Kintyre peninsula was placed into the ownership of Clan MacAlister through the Scottish National Trust in 1984 and is a MacAlister clan heritage centre :'''McCLAUGHLIN''' *[[space:McLaughlin_Clan |Clan MacLaughlin]] or Lachlan {{Image|file=Argyll_Scotland-13.jpg|caption=Old Castle Lachlan }} MacLaughlin was historically centred on the lands of Strathlachlan (Srath Lachainn "Valley of Lachlan") on Loch Fyne, Argyll. :'''MacLEAN''' *[[Space:Clan_MacLean|Clan MacLean]] {{Image|file=Argyll_Scotland-16.jpg |caption=Duart Castle, Seat of Clan McLean }} :'''MacCALLUM''' *[[Space:Clan_MacCallum|Clan MacCallum]] :'''MacCORQUODALE''' *[[:Category: Clan McCorquodale|Clan McCorquodale]] :'''MacDONALD''' *[[space:Clan_MacDonald|Clan MacDonald]] {{Image|file=Argyll_Scotland-15.jpg |caption=Finlaggan Castle Ruins }} Finlaggan was the seat of the Lords of the Isles and of Clan Donald. :'''STUART of Bute''' *[[Space:Clan_Stuart_of_Bute|Clan Stuart of Bute]] {{Image|file=Argyll_Scotland-14.jpg |caption= Rothesay Castle was held by the Chiefs of Clan Stuart of Bute in the 15th century and during the Scottish Civil War of the 17th century. }} ===Cemeteries=== {{Image|file=Campbeltown-2.jpg |caption=Kilkerran Cemetery }} :[[:Category: Gartnagrenach Graveyard, Gartnagrenach, Argyll|Gartnagrenach Graveyard]] :[[:Category: Kilchenzie Cemetery, Kilchenzie, Argyll and Bute|Kilchenzie Cemetery]] :[[:Category: St Columba's Chapel, Southend, Argyll and Bute|Kilcolmkill Chapel Churchyard]] :[[:Category: Kilkerran Cemetery, Campbeltown, Argyll and Bute|Kilkerran Cemetery]] :[[:Category: Kilkivan Graveyard, Campbeltown, Argyll and Bute|Kilkivan Graveyard]] :[[:Category: Killean Graveyard, Tayinloan, Argyll and Bute|Killean Graveyard]] :[[:Category: Kilmun Parish Cemetery, Kilmun, Argyll and Bute|Kilmun Parish Church and Cemetery]] :[[:Category: Kilnaughton Military Cemetery, Isle of Islay, Argyll|Kilnaughton Military Cemetery]] :[[:Category: Saddell Abbey, Saddell, Argyll and Bute|Saddell Abbey]] {{Image|file=Argyll_Scotland-1.png |caption=''Scottish Thistle National Flower of Scotland }} ===Parishes of Argyll=== Scotland has been divided into parishes since early medieval times. The residents of each parish were obliged to pay a proportion of their produce or income (in Scotland called teinds) to support the Church. As the government took over church roles such as education and poor relief parishes became civil parishes. From 1845 to 1930, parishes formed part of the local government system of Scotland: having parochial boards from 1845 to 1894, and parish councils from 1894 until 1930. Civil parishes are still used for some statistical purposes, and separate census figures are published for them. *[[:Category: Ardchattan Parish, Argyll|Ardchatton]] *[[space:Campbeltown_Parish_Argyll_Scotland |Campbeltown]] *[[:Category: Colonsay and Oransay Parish, Argyll|Colonsay and Oronsay]] *[[:Category: Craignish Parish, Argyll|Craignish]] *Dunoon and Kilmun *[[:Category: Gigha and Cara Parish, Argyll|Gigah and Cara]] *[[:Category: Glassary Parish, Argyll|Glassary]] *Glenorchy and Inishail *[[:Category: Inverary and Glenaray Parish, Argyll| Inverary & Glenaray]] *[[:Category: Inverchaolain Parish, Argyll|Inverchaolain]] *Jura *Kilbrandon and Kilchattan *[[:Category: Kilcalmonell and Kilberry Parish, Argyll|Kilcalmonell and Kilberry]] *Kilchoman * Kilchrenan and Dalavich *[[:Category: Kildalton Parish, Argyll|Kildalton]] *Kilfinan *Kilfinichen and Kilvickeon *Killarow and Kilmeny *[[space:Killean_and_Kilchenzie_Argyll| Killean and Kilchenzie]] *[[:Category: Kilmartin Parish, Argyll|Kilmartin]] *Kilmodan *Kilmore and Kilbride *[[:Category: Kilninian and Kilmore Parish, Argyll|Kilninian and Kilmore]] *Kilninver and Kilmelfort *Kingarth *Lismore and Appin *Lochgoilhead and Kilmorich *Luss *[[:Category: Morvern Parish, Argyll|Movern]] *[[:Category: North Knapdale, Argyll|North Knapdale]] *[[: Category: Saddell and Skipness Parish, Argyll|Saddell and Skipness]] *[[:Category: South Knapdale Parish, Argyll|South Knapdale]] * Strachur *[[Space:Southend_Parish_Argyll_Scotland|Southend]] {{Image|file=Argyll_Scotland-7.jpg |caption=Lighthouse at Mull of Kintrye }} ===Argyll One Name Studies=== *[[:Category: Argyll, Alexander Name Study|Alexander]] *[[: Category: Argyll, Andrews Name Study|Andrew]] *[[:Category: Argyll, Armour Name Study|Armour]] *[[:Category: Argyll, Brown Name Study|Brown]] *[[: Category: Argyll, Campbell Name Study|Campbell]] *[[:Category: Argyll, Clark Name Study|Clark]] *[[:Category: Argyll, Colville Name Study|Colville]] *[[: Category: Argyll, Cowan Name Study|Cowan]] *[[:Category:Argyleshire, Scotland, Duncan Name Study|Duncan]] *[[:Category: Argyll, Fleming Name Study|Fleming]] *[[:Category: Argyll, Galbraith Name Study|Galbraith]] *[[:Category: Argyll, Giffen Name Study|Giffen]] *[[:Category:Argyll, Gilchrist Name Study|Gilchrist]] *[[:Category: Argyll, Scotland, Harvey Name Study|Harvey]] *[[:Category: Argyll, Lockhart Name Study|Lockhart]] *[[:Category: Argyll, Maxwell Name Study|Maxwell]] *[[:Category: Argyll, McMillan Name Study|McMillan]] *[[:Category: Argyll, Mitchell Name Study|Mitchell]] *[[:Category: Argyll, Scotland, Murch Name Study|Murch]] *[[:Category: Argyll, Orr Name Study|Orr]] *[[:Category: Argyll, Paterson Name Study|Paterson]] *[[:Category: Argyll, Porter Name Study|Porter]] *[[:Category: Argyll, Reid Name Study|Reid]] *[[:Category: Argyll, Smith Name Study|Smith]] *[[:Category: Argyll, Stewart Name Study|Stewart]] *[[: Category: Argyll, Taylor Name Study|Taylor]] *[[: Category: Argyll, Scotland, Templeton Name Study|Templeton]] *[[: Category: Argyll, Thompson Name Study|Thomson]] *[[:Category: Argyll, Turner Name Study|Turner]] *[[:Category: Argyll, Watson Name Study|Watson]] :'''Other Common Argyll Names:''' :Anderson, Cuthbertson, Dunlop, Drain, Ferguson, Greenlees, Howie (or Huie), Johnston, Langwill, McCallum, McDonald, McEachran, McKay, McKerral, McMurchy, McNair, Ralston, Ryburn, Wallace {{Image|file=Argyll_Scotland-10.jpg |caption=''Argyll and Sutherland Highlanders'' }} ''Italic text'' ====Argyll War Memorials==== {{Image|file=Ronald-143.jpg |caption=''Kintrye World War I Memorial''}}{{clear}} {{Image|file=Kintrye_World_War_I_Honour_Roll-1.jpg|caption=[[Space:Kintrye_World_War_I_Honour_Roll|''Killean and Kilchenzie War Memorial'']]}} {{Clear}} {{Image|file=Campbeltown_War_Memorial-3.jpg|caption=[[Space:Campbeltown_War_Memorial|''Campbeltown War Memorial'']]}} {{Clear}} {{Image|file=Southend_Parish_Argyll_Scotland-3.jpg|caption=[[Space:Southend_War_Memorial|Southend War Memorial]]}} ====Genealogical Resources==== *[https://www.scotlandspeople.gov.uk/content/argyll-county Argyll County] ScotlandsPeople *[https://www.familysearch.org/wiki/en/Argyllshire,_Scotland_Genealogy Argyllshire, Scotland Genealogy] FamilySearch *[https://www.ancestry.com/search/places/united_kingdom/scotland/argyll/ Argyll family history research] Ancestry.com *[https://www.argyll-bute.gov.uk/council-and-government/family-history-genealogy Family History Genealogy] Argyll Bute Council. *[https://www.oldscottish.com/argyll.html Argyll Records] *[https://electricscotland.com/ Electric Scotland] *[https://archive.org/details/nationallibraryofscotland Archives] National Library of Scotland *[http://www.ralstongenealogy.com/personquery4.php Kintyre Cemetery Photos] *[https://maps.nls.uk/ Maps] National Library of Scotland *Ralston, Grace.

[[Category: Scotland Project Managed FSPs]] [[Category:Scottish Counties]] [[Category:Ayrshire, Scotland]] {{Image|file=Graphics_for_Scotland.jpg |caption=Ayrshire, Scotland |align=r |size=m }} Ayrshire's name came from the River Ayr, which runs through it. Ayr is thought to come from the Celtic root ar or adh’ar, which means either “clear” or “rapid,” characteristics of the river. ==Ayrshire== The historic shire or sheriffdom of Ayr was divided into three districts or baileries which later made up the county of Ayr: Carrick to the south, Kyle in the centre with the burgh of Ayr, and Cunningham in the north with the burgh of Irvine. Currently it is sub-divided into the council areas of North Ayrshire, South Ayrshire and East Ayrshire. On the west coast of Scotland, Ayrshire is bounded by Renfrew to the north, Lanark and Dumfries to the east, and on the south by Kirkubright and Wigton. To the the west of the county are the Firth of Clyde and the Irish Channel.

[[Category: Scotland Project Managed FSPs]] ==Ballater (Scottish Gaelic: ''Bealadair'')== Ballater is a burgh in Aberdeenshire on the River Dee, immediately east of the Cairngorm Mountains. Situated at an elevation of 213 m (700 ft), Ballater is a center for hikers and is known for its spring water. In the early 14th Century, the area was part of the estates of the Knights of St. John, but did not develop until around 1770, first as a spa resort for visitors to the Pananich Mineral Well, then visited by tourists upon the arrival of the railway in 1866. Balmoral Castle, the British Royal Family's holiday home, lies approximately 12 km west, and the family has visited the town frequently since the time of Queen Victoria. Birkhall lies about 2 km southwest of Ballater. Victoria Barracks is used by the Royal Guard for the castle. [[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ballater]]

[[Category: Scotland Project Managed FSPs]] [[Category:Battle of Aberdeen]] Related page: [[Space:Scotland in the Wars of the Three Kingdoms]] A part of [[:Category:Scotland in the Wars of the Three Kingdoms|Scotland in the Wars of the Three Kingdoms]] '''Battle of Aberdeen''' [[Image:Doug_s_Photos-13.jpg|450px]] The Battle of Aberdeen was an engagement in the Wars of the Three Kingdoms which took place between Royalist and Covenanter forces outside the city of Aberdeen on 13 September 1644. After defeating Lord Elcho's forces at the [[:Category: Battle of Tippermuir|Battle of Tippermuir]], outside Perth, Montrose's forces had captured a large cache of weapons and munitions when they ransacked Perth. Most of the Highland clansmen departed with their plunder after Tippermuir, and Lord Kilpont's men disbanded after Kilpont himself was murdered by his own second-in-command, Stewart of Ardvorlich. However, Montrose was joined by two troops of horse under Nathaniel Gordon and Sir Thomas Ogilvy. Anxious to keep up the momentum of his campaign, Montrose left Perth on 4 September 1644 and marched north-east along the Firth of Tay. The well-defended burgh of Dundee was summoned to surrender but refused, so Montrose continued towards Aberdeen. Montrose led these men on a rapid advance on Aberdeen, the main Covenanter sea port in Scotland, picking up a force of around 500 highlanders on the way. After a diversion to avoid being forced to take a fortified bridge over the River Dee, they reached Aberdeen on 12 September. Montrose appeared before Aberdeen on 12 September with three Irish regiments (Laghtnan's, McDonnell's, O'Cahan's) totalling 1,500 men, 100 MacDonald Highlanders and two troops of horse. On 13 September, the burgh was summoned to surrender. During the negotiations, a soldier from the Covenanter garrison is said to have shot and killed a drummer boy accompanying the heralds, infuriating Montrose and his troops who swore vengeance on the Covenanters of Aberdeen. Having refused the summons to surrender, a Covenanter force under the command of Lord Balfour of Burleigh marched out and deployed along the crest of a flat-topped ridge about half-a-mile south of the burgh. The ridge topped the northern slope of the How Burn valley and overlooked a complex of buildings and ponds known as Justice Mills at its western end. Burleigh's infantry comprised around 2,000 men: two regular Covenanter regiments (his own and Lord Forbes'), the Aberdeen militia and some local levies. He also had around 300 cavalry, including three troops of regulars, which were deployed on the flanks. The Battle took place at "Two Mile Cross", near the present site of the retail park at Brig' o' Dee. Montrose drew up an extended line of men, to prevent being out-flanked and placed a small group of horsemen at each end "otherwise, if they would disobey, that then he desired them to remove old aged men, women, and children out of the way, and to stand to their own peril". The battle began with a cannonade from the Covenanters field guns. Lord Gordon on the Covenanters left wing attacked with his cavalry. Montrose moved his horse to assist on the right flank, and this small group of 44 horsemen repulsed and routed the Covenanter attack. Montrose quickly ordered these horsemen back into the line as they were now needed on the left where the battle was developing. Sweeping across to the other side of the field, they attacked the flanks of the Covenanters forces and forced them to flee. Montrose then ordered an infantry attack up the centre, routing the Covenanters who started fleeing back towards the town. Lord Burleigh's 2500 defenders were soon overwhelmed - 160 men were killed. Montrose remained in Aberdeen for three days. He either failed to control his troops, predominantly Irish and Highlanders, or he deliberately allowed the wholesale slaughter, pillage and rape of the civilian population. This act, and a similar event at Perth after the [[:Category: Battle of Tippermuir|Battle of Tippermuir]], caused widespread hatred for him and his cause in areas which were once Royalist and many families turned to the Covenanters. He fled Aberdeen to avoid a confrontation with the approaching Parliamentarian force under the Marquess of Argyll. On 28 October, Argyll finally caught up with Montrose at Fyvie Castle in Aberdeenshire. Skirmishing continued for several days in the vicinity of the castle but Montrose maintained a strong defensive position and Argyll was unable to bring the smaller Royalist force to battle. When Argyll withdrew to find fodder for his cavalry horses, Montrose took the opportunity to escape across the hills to Blair Atholl. As many of Montrose's followers were deserting him, Argyll marched back to Edinburgh, convinced that the Royalist uprising would fade completely with the onset of winter.

Charles II, then at Cologne, granted him a commission as commander of Royalist forces in Scotland until Major-General Middleton could be sent from the Netherlands to take over. Glencairn gained enough support from the fractious clan leaders to initiate a guerilla campaign in the Highlands and begin recruiting an army. Lords Huntly, MacDonald of Glengarry and Seaforth were among the Scottish nobles who joined Glencairn. The Marquis of Argyll remained neutral, but his son and heir Lord Lorne defied Argyll to join the rebellion. Commonwealth forces in Scotland had been left under the command of Colonel Robert Lilburne following the departure of Major-General Deane at the end of 1652, but Lilburne's authority was compromised because he had not been promoted from colonel. Furthermore, the Council of State was preoccupied with the war against the Dutch, so Lilburne's requests for money and reinforcements were largely ignored. Lilburne deployed what troops he had to patrol the Highlands and successfully contained the uprising during the winter of 1653-4. In February 1654, Major-General [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/John_Middleton,_1st_Earl_of_Middleton John Middleton], and his staff, arrived at Dornoch in Sutherland with the King's commission to take over command of the Royalist forces. Middleton, who came from a modest family and started his military career as a Pikeman, was held in contempt by the Highland nobles. Glencairn, however, had no option but to surrender command of the army, which now numbered around 3,500 foot and 1,500 horse, but Glencairn became deeply resentful when he learned that [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/George_Munro,_1st_of_Newmore Sir George Monro], a seasoned veteran, was to be Middleton's second-in-command rather than himself. This led to a bad-tempered confrontation between Glencairn and Monro resulted in a duel being fought in which Monro was wounded and Glencairn had to be restrained from killing him. Monro's continuing provocative behaviour led to Glencairn withdrawing from Middleton's army, leaving the Royalist forces hopelessly divided. Meanwhile in April 1654, General George Monck returned to Scotland to take over command from Lilburne. With the Dutch war now over, Monck was granted the additional resources of men and supplies that Lilburne had been denied. Monck was also given legislative powers to punish the families of those who joined the rebellion and to offer rewards for the capture of Royalist leaders. He continued Lilburne's policy of aggressive patrolling to seal off the Highlands and protect the Lowlands. In June 1654, he marched into the mountains to seek out the insurgents. Monck deployed his troops in separate columns to penetrate the mountain passes, with enough supplies to keep them in the field for weeks at a time. Garrisons were established at strategic points and Monck's troops ruthlessly laid waste the lands of suspected Royalists to deny support to Middleton's forces. In collaboration with his second-in-command, Colonel Thomas Morgan, Monck manoeuvred to trap Middleton's army between two Commonwealth columns. On the evening of 19 July 1654, Morgan surprised Middleton at [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Battle_of_Dalnaspidal Dalnaspidal] near Loch Garry. The Royalist horse had become separated from the foot. When Morgan's superior forces advanced towards them, most of Middleton's cavalry fled, leaving the infantry unprotected. As Morgan's cavalry continued to advance, the Royalist infantry also turned and ran. The fight at Dalnaspidal broke the Royalist insurrection in the Highlands. Although wounded, Middleton managed to escape into the mountains, but he was never able to gather a substantial force again. Monck wanted all the leaders of the uprising put to death, but the Protector and Council promised a pardon to all those who submitted. Glencairn himself surrendered to Monck in September 1654. Middleton escaped back to the Continent and rejoined Charles II at Cologne early in 1655.

[[Category: Scotland Project Managed FSPs]] [[Category: Battle of Dingwall]][[Category:Scottish Military History]] For profiles and related categories, see [[:Category:Battle of Dingwall|the category]] A part of [[:Category:Scottish Military History|Scottish Military History]] ===Battle of Dingwall=== There is some conjecture regarding the timing of this battle. It is generally presumed to have occurred during the invasion of Scotland by [[Macdonald-273|Donald MacDonald]], Lord of the Isles in 1411. This is mentioned on the [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Battle_of_Dingwall wikipedia site]. However some historians suggest that the battle occurred prior to 1411. The events of the day certainly appear to support the year of 1411 as being the year of the battle and is supported in all of the original source documents. ===Background=== Between 1406 and 1410 the MacDonalds, under Donald MacDonald, Lord of the Isles, invaded Skye and alienated the MacLeods. In 1408 MacDonald made a treaty of mutual aid with Henry IV of England. In 1410 the strategic situation with MacDonald had become so troublesome that a Council was called. The Exchequer Rolls of 1410 show that the Regent summoned the Earls of Douglas, March and Mar to council to discuss the coming crisis with DonaldExchequer Rolls of Scotland; vol 4; page lvii, lxxiv and 132.. Sir Alexander Stewart, Earl of Mar, gathered his northern barons at Kildrummy castle, Aberdeenshire, on the eve of Christmas 1410. It could be presumed that preparations were made to resist an invasion should it come. Scotland was of the opinion that MacDonald would attack in the north, forcing a retaliation from the Regent and draw Scotland's army to battle around Inverness, thus opening the way for an English invasion in the south. MacDonald had the largest fleet in Scotland and, with England's support, could effectively shut down Scotland's trade. [[Image:Doug_s_Photos-14.png|250px]] In March 1411, Donald is thought to have mustered his clansmen, and also, presumably, [[:Category:Clan MacLean|Clan Maclean]] from Duart, from his holdings around Islay and Argyll and gathered, presumably at Finlaggen Castle. The Collectanea de rebus albanicisSkene mentions in his work “Highlanders of Scotland” that the manuscript was written by a person under the name of Maclachlan in 1467. advises that 10,000 clansmen responded to the call at Finlaggen and out of these Donald selected 6,600 to accompany him in the invasion of Scotland but this is likely an exaggeration.Events are noticed in ''History of the Macdonalds and Lords of the Isles; with genealogies of the principal families of the name''; Mackenzie It is likely that they sailed north towards the end of March 1411; their destination was Loch Carron on Scotland's west coast, part of the Earldom of Ross and held by Mackenzie of that Ilk, based at Eilean Donan castle led by Murdoch Mackenzie. Skene mentions: "''...this invasion was but a part of a much more extensive and more important scheme for which the claim of the earldom served but as a pretext; and that upon the failure of the greater plan [due to Donald failing at Harlaw], that claim [on Ross] was readily resigned.''" Although the map places the Regent in the Lothians and the Earl of Mar near Falkland Palace there is no real historical evidence of them being in either location. There is even a paucity of Chamberlain and Accounting records of this year and although there is some evidence, from Charters under the Great Seal, that the Regent was in Edinburgh around March 1411, this is not conclusive. There is certainly evidence of the Regent having an army in the field before June 1411 and the speed with which it was deployed later in July and August suggests it was well equipped. A number of historiansIncluding Sir Robert Gordon, Historian of the Earl of Sutherland and notoriously biased against the family when it comes to Mackay suggest that Donald had laid waste to the Earldom of Ross, no doubt discussing the lands of Syke ([[:Category:Clan MacLeod|MacLeods]]) and around Loch Carron ([[:Category: Clan Mackenzie|Mackenzies]]) and that [[Mackay-1314|Angus Du Mackay]], related to both, came to their aid. This fails to appreciate the strategic situation. Mackay were clearly acting on behalf of the Regent of Scotland, again a relative, and attempting to stop MacDonald before he could join with Clan Chattan. Sir Robert is likely providing an excuse to why the Earl of Sutherland did not lead the men on the field. In about April 1411, MacDonald marches on the Royal castle at Inverness. There are few roads and no historical accounts but it could be presumed that he "gathered" his men (MacLeods and Mackenzie) and followed the line of what is now A890, which will bring him out near Strathpeffer, just west of Dingwall, the principal seat of the Earldom of Ross. Bain, in his [https://archive.org/stream/historyofancient00bain#page/76/mode/2up study on Ross], is clearer when he provides that the battle "had its locus on the line of the Strathpeffer Railway, some distance west of the point where the Peffery, after crossing the valley, turns eastward at about a right angle. At this period the stream meandered through the wide morass, (now) the site of the upper lake". Both the MacLeods and the MacKenzies are known to have been with him but only under sufferance.History of the Mackenzie; Alexander Mackenzie; page 63. It is not known whether they participated at the Battle of Dingwall but it seems improbable. ===Location of the Battle=== The Battle of Dingwall likely occurred early in the fighting season and probably around May. Donald arrived at, what is now, Strathpeffer, en-route to Dingwall, with around 6,000 men.History of the Macdonalds and Lords of the Isles; Mackenzie, 1881, page 62 suggests it was 10,000 men but this seems improbable. It seems likely he was not expecting any opposition and would have already known that the Regent was not in the field. [[Image:Doug_s_Photos-15.png|250px]] It seems, according to the family historian, that he stopped at Strathpeffer and was advised that a force of 4,000 men, including the levy of Sutherland and Ross, headed by the Mackays, were formed up for battle before the castle at Dingwall. This location, often taken literally, actually seems improbable and is not consistent with the method of fighting amongst Highland clans; they needed open space. It is more likely that it was meant to imply "before" him and the castle of Dingwall. The map shows that for Donald to have reached the castle he would have needed to have destroyed the town of Dingwall and of which there is no evidence. Although stated to be the battle of Dingwall, there is no evidence of the battle actually occurring in the town and the castle was known to survive as Donald puts [[Mackay-1314|Angus Du Mackay]] and [[Mackenzie-846|Murdoch Mackenzie]] in the dungeons of the castle. It seems more likely that the battle was fought further west and closer to Strathpeffer as this is where Donald would have come out of the mountains. the battle actually taking place about 6 kilometres west of Dingwall. Bain is adamant on this point and it seems that modern historians have failed to associate the battlefield at Strathpeffer with "Dingwall" although Bain clearly states this. ===Battle of Dingwall=== Mackay is mentioned to have led the levies of Ross and Sutherland, thus representing the Regent and Scotland rather than a clan battle. Analysis supports Robert Mackay[[#S-1]] Robert Mackay; page 55 when he suggests that, with Mackay, were men from Assynt (MacLeods), Caithness and Ross (Munroes and Mackays). Bain provides[[#S-3]] Robert Bain; page 78 that with the Mackay was "the always loyal" Munros of Ferrindonald, then commanded by Robert, fourth Baron. Bain provides that the "way to Dingwall and its Castle lay on a narrow ledge, with the dangerous quagmire on the one hand and the rough hillside on the other. Astride this ledge Mackay posted his forces, and his judgement in occupying it, ... was fully justified by results." In a manner typical of this day there is no real account of the battle nor any account of any casualties although the action is thought to have been bitter. It could be presumed that it would have been typical of highland battles of the day with both sides lining up and charging at each other. Donald likely had about 6,000 men and Angus Du some 4,000. Bain suggests that Donald was surprised in the field by the numbers against him and is stated to have withdrawn and taken a circuitousness route to avoid the field. However it is clear that a battle took place. Alexander MacbainHighlanders of Scotland; Skene, 2nd Edition, Excursus and Notes, page 422., in his editorial on Skene's second edition of “The Highlanders of Scotland”, suggests that “all Fordun's numbers are clearly exaggerated for the clans and chiefs in arms in Macdonald's cause”. He also states that at Dingwall the Mackay had “all the malcontents of the Earldom of Ross at his back”. He further states that the clan, Mackay, were never as numerous as the Mackenzie and thus had less than 2,000 on a muster of the day thus supporting the presumption that there were more than the Mackays on that field fighting for Scotland. From Macbain it could be supposed that Macdonald's force at Dingwall was around 6,000 and more like 4,000 after. If we are to believe these numbers the battle site would still need to accommodate 10,000 men without formation and probably needed to have a frontage of around 1.5 kilometre. To give an example of comparison, at the battle of Culloden the Jacobite army was 4,500 and the tactics would not have been dissimilar to that of Dingwall, or Harlaw. The Jacobite front at Harlaw was nearly 1.2 kilometres, the armies 400 metres apart. The armies would have formed up in clan groups behind the chieftains in roughly a single line which differed in depth depending on the clan. The book of Mackay[[#S-2]] Angus Mackay; page 55 claims Angus Du at the head of 4000 men was overpowered and captured while his brother Rorie Gald was killed. While the history of the Mackays suggest they lost the battle of Dingwall with heavy casualties it doesn't mention how many and nor is there any mention of the damage inflicted on Donald but we can assume it sizeable. [[Image:Doug_s_Photos-19.jpg|200px]] Clan Munro have viewed this battle, called Blar-in-inich (Battle of Solitude), as one of their greatest achievements. In their history it is regarded as the place of turning and is remembered in the Clach 'n Tuindain - Stone of Turning. It, the stone with the Eagle of the Clan, originally stood on the opposite side of the hollow, somewhere near where the railway station once stood, thence it was removed to form part of a boundary dyke, and was ultimately erected in its present position where, termed "The Eagle Stone," it forms one of the sights of Strathpeffer.[[#S-3]] Robert Bain; page 79 ===Aftermath=== After the battle of Dingwall it seems that Donald rested there for sometime. Angus Du Mackay was held in prison at Dingwall and then sent back to one of the MacDonald castles on the west coast, likely Finlaggen, where he will meet his future wife, Donald's sister. MacDonald threw Mackenzie into the dungeons at Dingwall, likely for failing to accept him as overlord. MacDonald was still in Dingwall when Mackenzie arranged for his own release by capturing “Donald's immediate relatives”, presumably his sons. Donald was now in possession of Ross but this is clearly not what he came for. This is alluded to in Mackenzie's workHistory of the Macdonalds and Lords of the Isles; Mackenzie, 1881, page 62 where he suggests that after the destruction of the Mackays at the battle of Dingwall “Donald was now in complete possession of the Earldom [of Ross], but his subsequent proceedings showed that the nominal object of his expedition was but a cover to ulterior designs”. Donald still had not managed to get the Regent to commit his force to a battle with Donald in the north. There is no evidence that the Campbells and Stewarts, that guarded the approach to the south had moved and the Regent, not one to leap into a fight unless really stacked to his favour, was still in the Lothians. Donald likely waited out the month of May and start of June at Dingwall then moved onto the royal castle at Inverness. There is still no evidence of any movement by the Earl of Mar but it could be presumed that the “march” on Inverness would have provoked action as this was now a deliberate attack on Scotland and no longer a dispute over the Earldom of Ross.

[[Category: Scotland Project Managed FSPs]] [[Category:Battle of Glascune]] For profiles, see [[:Category: Battle of Glascune|the category]]. A part of [[:Category:Scottish Military History|Scottish Military History]] ==Battle of Glascune (1391 or 1395)== There are variable dates provided for this battle TytlerHistory of Scotland; Tytler, vol 1 page 345 suggests it occured in 1395 while Angus Mackay[[#S-1]] Angus Mackay; page 52 suggests it occurred in 1391. The history of the [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Clan_Donnachaidh Clan Donnachaidh], who had three "chieftains" at the battle suggests 1394. It certainly occurred after 1390 when Sir David Lindsay, one of the combatants on the field, is known to have jousted, in London, against the English champion, Lord Welles, in a remarkable duel on St. George's Day (April), 1390. ===Background=== Robert II, King of Scotland was the first Stewart King. Robert's sons, John, Earl of Carrick, had become the foremost Stewart magnate south of the Forth just as Alexander, Earl of Buchan was in the north. These two nobles wielded extraordinary power and were uncontrollable by their father. In 1384 the Earl of Carrick was appointed the king's lieutenant after having influenced the general council to remove Robert II from direct rule. His administration saw a renewal of the conflict with England and, in 1388, the Scots defeated the English at the Battle of Otterburn. However the Scots' commander, James, Earl of Douglas, a powerful ally to the Earl of Carrick was killed. Prior to this event John Stewart had been badly injured by a horse-kick and had lost significant prestige, particularly amongst his Highland supporters. This and the loss of his powerful ally, Douglas, saw a turnaround in support in favour of his younger brother Robert, Earl of Fife, and in December 1388 the council transferred the lieutenancy to Robert, Earl of Fife, who would later be the Duke of Albany. In 1389 he had his son, Murdoch Stewart, appointed as Justiciar North of the Forth, and father and son would now work together to expand their family interest, bringing them into violent confrontation with other members of the nobility such as Donald McDonald, 2nd Lord of the Isles, conflict which would lead them to Harlaw in 1411. He, John, Earl of Carrick, became King Robert III in Aug 1390 but without authority to rule directly. Anarchy prevailed through much of Scotland. ===Friction in the North=== Tytler recordsHistory of Scotland; Tytler, vol 1 page 344. that the character of Robert III was not essentially different from his father but that the accident which left him lame ensured that he would never gain the full respect of the nobility. Further, as only the second Stewart king; the barons, particularly the other Stewarts, who surrounded his throne had, until very recently, seen his father and himself as equal and were not prepared to surrender their “entitlements”. [[Image:Doug_s_Photos-9.png|50px]] The Earl of Buchan, [[Stewart-1007|Alexander Stewart]], (also Earl of Ross by right of his wife) in particular, was ruthless and was judged to be little less than a cruel and ferocious savage, a “species of Celtic Attila”. He went by the common appellation of the "Wolf of Badenoch" is sufficiently characteristic of the “dreadful attributes which composed his character, and who issued from his lair in the north, like the devoted instrument of the divine wrath, to scourge and afflict the nation”.[[Image:Doug_s_Photos-13.png|50px]] He was noted for running a band of Highland mercenaries that invoked terror and ferocious retribution wherever the Earl commanded. In support of his endeavours he used a number of the Highland clans, particularly Clan Mackay and Clan Donnachaidh. Even prior to the coronation of Robert III the potential threat to internal peace had come into play. Firstly, in April 1390, John Dunbar, Earl of Moray and his fellow northern landowner Sir David Lindsay of Glenesk (Kincardineshire), both absented themselves from Scotland to attend a tourney in England at the invitation of Richard II of England (Lindsay was a noted jouster). At the same time Bishop Bur, Bishop of Moray, who had conflict with the Earl of Buchan over Buchan's, [[Ross-1119|Euphemia Ross]], treatment to his wife, was threatened by Buchan and thus turned to Thomas Dunbar, Sheriff of Inverness and son to the Earl of Moray, for protection. This offered Buchan an opportunity to exact revenge on Bur for his comments on Buchan's estrangement with his wife and Buchan's mistress, an aunt of [[Mackay-1317|Angus Mackay]]. Thus in May and June, 1390, Buchan destroyed the town and abbey at Forres in Moray and then destroyed the cathedral at Elgin. He burned the cathedral, the monastery of the Greyfriars, St Giles parish church and the Hospital of Maison Dieu. This, too much even for his brothers, brought retribution. It brought together Robert III with Robert Stewart, Earl of Fife and younger brother to Robert III, and the church. Buchan was forced to plead for forgiveness and he lost the Lordship of Urquhart (along Loch Ness) and it allowed the church to support a divorce with his wife which cost him the claim to the Earldom of Ross. Thus the difference in dates. This action, by Alexander Stewart, in 1390 and the consequence through to 1392, allows Tytler to claim it was Duncan Stewart, son to Alexander Stewart that led the raiding force at the battle, or it occurred before and, in which case, Alexander Stewart led the force. ===The Battle=== The battle was a consequence of a raid by Stewart, and his allies, into the rich Buchan farmlands, near Erroly (Airlie). Predictably there is no real detail regarding the battle Tytler records that in 1395 a natural son, Duncan Stewart, son to Mairead inghean Eachann (daughter to [[Mackay-1349|Iye Mackay]]), his "handfast wife", “whose manners were worthy of his descent, and who, at the head of a wild assemblage of katherans, armed only with the sword and target, broke across the range of hills which divide the counties of Aberdeen and Forfar, and began to destroy the country, and murder the inhabitants, with reckless and indiscriminate cruelty”.History of Scotland; Tytler, vol 1 page 345. His force was predominantly clansman of the Mackays under [[Mackay-1317|Angus Mackay]]. It seems possible, as mentioned in a piece by James Robertson for the Scotland Magazine,http://www.scotlandmag.com/magazine/issue33/12007927.html that it started with a dispute regarding the ownership of the lands of Glenesk, held by Sir David Lindsay. The story suggests that a Robert, son of Duncan of Atholl, disputed the right of Sir David to sole ownership the lands of Glenesk. Robert’s brother-in-law was the late Sir Alexander Lindsay, David’s father, and their respective wives were co-heiresses to these estates; Robert did not receive his full share, he thought. He appeals to Duncan Stewart and Stewart suggests a raid on the lands of Glenesk. Thomas, Patrick and Gibbon were Robert’s younger brothers. Along with Duncan Stewart, they led 300 men, armed with claymores and targets, and attacked without warning – killing, stealing cattle, plundering grain stores. Columns of smoke from burning cottages and barns marked their passing. As a result Sir Walter Ogilvy, then sheriff of Angus and held much of the lands of Airlie, Not so, his lands were around Auchterhouse, Airlie and Craigs of Glen Isla being held by Ogston of that Ilk. along with Sir Patrick Gray and Sir David Lindsay of Glenesk, and others of the Mearns, collected their followers, “and although far inferior in numbers, trusting to the temper of their armour, attacked Stewarts men at “Gasklune, near the Water of Isla””. Glen Isla is the most westerly of the Angus Glens, and the only one that is a through route, between Badenoch and Angus, for a large body of troops. The actual battle site of Glasclune is lost although ScottMinstrelsy of the Scottish border (3rd ed); Sir Walter Scott, Notes on the Battle of Otterburn, No. 74. See: http://www.gutenberg.org/files/12742/12742-h/12742-h.htm notes that “they [the Highlanders under Stewart] were engaged in plundering the county of Angus..... [and that Ogilvy] trusting to the superiority of arms and discipline, the knights rushed on the invaders, at Gasclune, in the Stormont” which would seem to place it south of Blairgowrie and west of Coupar Angus, near the junction of the Isla with the Tay.An old map (Pont, Timothy, 1560?-1614?; Strathardle; Glenshee and Glenericht abt 1590; see: http://maps.nls.uk/detail.cfm?id=290 ) shows a “Glashclun” to the west of Coupar Angus and on the River Isla. Scotts suggests that the whole of Ogilvy's force did not exceed sixty menBut this seems unlikely as other commentaries suggest Ogilvy lost around 70 men at the battle., and Stewart's highlanders, the Mackays and the Robertsons,[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Clan_Donnachaidh Clan Donnachaidh] had three of their chieftains at the battle; Thomas, Patrick and Gibbon. were above three hundred. The battle seems to have been short and sharp: ''Ogilvy, his brother, and many of his kindred, were overpowered and slain. Lindsay, armed at all points, made great slaughter among the naked Catterans; but, as he pinned one of them to the earth with his lance, the dying mountaineer writhed upwards and, collecting his force, fetched a blow with his broad-sword which cut through the knight's stirrup-leather and steel-boot and nearly severed his leg. The Highlander expired, and Lindsay was with difficulty borne out of the field by his followers.'' It was [[Ogilvy-10|Sir Walter Ogilvy of Auchterhouse]]The Scots Peerage; Balfour Paul; Vol 1, page 108. that was the sheriff killed at the battle and Sir Walter Ogilvy of Lichtoun, who was his “uterine” brother, that died with him. The same source states it to have been the battle of Glenbrierachan or Glasklune in 1392. Glenbrierachan was a Stewart holding so could account for the destination. A similar account is held under “Disturbances in Sutherland”See: http://www.electricscotland.com/history/genhist/hist27.html. The same source, based on Sir Robert Gordon's work, discusses a Nicholas as Earl of Sutherland but no Nicolas existed as Earl casting doubt on the other material. where it is given that it was Alexander Stewart, later Earl of Mar, quoting Wynton “a desperate conflict took place, which was of short duration. The caterans fought with determined bravery, and soon overpowered their assailants. The sheriff, his brother, Wat of Lichtoune, (William) Young of Ouchterlony, the lairds of Cairncross, Forfar, and Guthry, and 60 of their followers, were slain. Sir Patrick Gray and Sir David Lindsay were severely wounded, and escaped with difficulty”. The story is the same and it is possible that both Duncan and Alexander (although he would have been young at the time) Stewart were there. It seems improbable that Alexander Stewart was at this battle. Although Stewart's men escaped the field Duncan and a number of his men were captured, brought before Sir James Crawford, the Justiciary of Scotland, and executed, Alexander would not have escaped this justice. The Book of Mackay suggest that amongst the highlanders that fought that day were John Mathyson, Morgownde Roryson and Michael Mathowson with their followers. These were the families of the Mathiesons of Sutherland and the Morgans (Clan Morgan/Mackay) of Strathnaver. == Footnotes == == Sources == * Source S-1{{MLA citation| title= ''The book of Mackay''|volume= Vol. I|author= Angus Mackay| publisher= Norman Macleod| publication-place=Edinburgh| year= 1906 |url=https://openlibrary.org/books/OL25295537M/The_book_of_Mackay| repository= Open Library}}

[[Category: Scotland Project Managed FSPs]] [[Category:Battle of Harpsdale]] A part of [[:Category:Scottish Military History|Scottish Military History]] ==Battle of Harpsdale 1426== The Battle of Harpsdale was a battle fought in Caithness, Scotland, at Achardale, about 13 km south of Thurso. The historical record, provided in the main by Sir Robert GordonA Genealogical History of the Earldom of Sutherland. Originally written between 1615 and 1625, published in 1813. pp. 63 - 64. views the battle as a result of an incursion into the lands of Clan Gunn in Caithness. Clan Mackay was met and repelled at Harpsdale by a conglomerate of Clans, generally supposed to be Clan Gunn and Clan Keith as their allies, supported by supporters of the Earl of Sutherland, likely Clan Murray. ===Background=== Judging by the record, primarily that of Sir Robert Gordon, [[Mackay-1314|Angus Du Mackay]], from between 1415 and 1420 went on a spree of ravaging the lands held by various of the name Sutherland. Certainly Nicolas Sutherland, the man that murdered his father, gets more than his share. In these endeavours, a point missed by the family historians, he was likely abetted in this with his relationship with the Albany Stewarts, who now had complete power in the north until the return from captivity of James I. There can be no question, given their faith in the man that supported their cause at the [[:Category:Battle of Dingwall|Battle of Dingwall]], that he was their arm in the north. However the power of the Albany Stewarts was diminished by the death of Sir Robert Stewart, Duke of Albany, and destroyed by the return of James I in 1424 and the execution of Sir Murdoch Stewart. This event is generally unnoticed in regards to the impact on the Mackay however the fall of the Albany Stewarts was the catalyst for attacks on the Mackays. Likely starting in 1420 and certainly by 1424 a number of attacks on and by the Mackay are noticed. Although often put down to Clan battles there is certainly the appearance of usurpation of the Mackay. The Earl of Sutherland was keen to gain control of their lands and power of their clan leading to a significant number of clashes in the far north. Many of these are between Clan Mackay and the sons of MacNeil, supported by the Earl of Sutherland and his allies. ===The Battle=== In one of these incessant family feuds we are advisedGenealogical History of the Earldom of Sutherland that "In the days of Robert, Earl of Sutherland, the year 1426, Angus-Dow Mackay, and his son Niel, assembling all the forces of Strathnaver, they entered into Caithness with all hostility, and spoiled the same. The inhabitants of Caithness convened with all diligence, and fought against Angus-Dow Mackay at Harpsdale, where there was great slaughter on either side." Gordon is the main source for these events and is thus, in these cases, unreliable. However clearly a battle occurred and there "was much slaughter on both sides". It is more likely, and recorded in other more modern sources with less bias, that Clan Sutherland, fighting in support of the claims of Thomas MacNeil on the Mackay lands, was represented by [[:Category:Clan Gunn|Clan Gunn]] and [[:Category:Clan Keith|Clan Keith]].Angus Mackay suggests that Clan Gunn was not present but the issue is moot. Nicholas Sutherland was the husband of Margery, one of the Chene heiresses, and owned huge possessions in and around Sutherland. A Charter, 1370, provided "Strabrock and the half of Catness". He was brother in law to John Keith of Inverugy (Aberdeenshire) who had married the other heiress. It could be presumed that neither the Gunns or the Keiths were particularly strong at the battle but likely there. Details of the battle are non-existent and there are no credible sources. However it could be assumed to be an engagement typical of the day. Both sides line up, about 400 metres apart, in a single line with Clan Chiefs at the front and clan supporters behind the Chief. The location over which the battle is believed to have been fought is flat and could easily contain the numbers thought, in legend, to have been there. It seems unlikely to have been as large as stated however and, as was typical of the historical record, the numbers are vastly overstated. Clan Gunn for example, could muster 200 men to the Inverness gathering the year after while Clan Mackay could muster 4000. ===Aftermath=== In August 1428Note however that some historians, Gordon and thus the Mackay historians amongst them provide this as 1427, James I, incensed with the behaviour of his nobles in the north convened a Council at Inverness and summoned his nobles. In the continuation of Fordun's Chronicle we are advised that amongst those summoned the Clan Mackay where "Angus-Dow alias Mackay, leader of four thousand Strathnaver-men, or Mackays, and his four sons, were arrested." Of note, the nobility attending included Alexander MacDonald, Lord of the Isles, Kenneth More, John Ross, William Leslie and Angus de Moray and Macmaken who were each leaders of 2000 men. They were all amongst the 50 or so nobles and heads of families that James imprisoned. As a result of the actions of the Parliament Angus Du Mackay gave up his son, Neil, into custody. Some historians correlate the events but there is clearly no real interrelationship. James was enforcing his power across all these nobles and the Mackay was one of the strongest. MacDonald, who would be imprisoned along with his mother, retaliated fiercely by burning Inverness soon after his release, an act that very nearly had him executed. Some historians, John PinkertonThe history of Scotland from the accession of the House of Stuart to that of Mary included, placing the date as 1427 provides: "Two of them, leaders of a thousand each, were instantly tried, condemned, and beheaded; and one, who had murdered the late Lord of the Isles, was also executed in impartial justice. The others were scattered, as prisoners, among the castles of different lords through the kingdom; and after a time some were condemned to death, and some were restored to liberty. The Lord of the Isles and his mother were retained in captivity till, apparently after a year or more, the former was delivered, while the latter seems in vain to have been retained as an hostage for his fidelity" This appears to have been missed and was the real cause for the Parliament. Indeed Pinkerton even provides this in "The Lords of the Isles in particular, by their constant confederacy with England, and repeated inroads, well deserved a signal chastisement." It also provides that Donald MacDonald, Lord of the Isles, had been murdered and by one of the two immediately executed by James suggesting that James was bringing justice. The inter clan rivalry between Mackay and the MacNeil was not finished and would only be decided at the [[:Category:Battle of Drumnacoub|Battle of Drumnacoub]].

[[Category: Scotland Project Managed FSPs]] [[Category: Battle of Sligachan]] {{Profile-box|See [[:Category: Battle of Sligachan|the category]] for profiles of persons who participated in this battle}} '''Battle of Sligachan, 1395, Skye''' [[Image:Doug_s_Photos-10.png|50px]] [[Image:Doug_s_Photos-12.png|50px]] The battle of Sligachan on Skye was a Scottish clan battle fought between the MacLeods and the MacDonalds. [[Macdonald-273|Donald MacDonald]], Lord of the Isles, seemed bent on increasing his clan lands and recreating the Kingdom of the Isles, by force if necessary. The feud between the two clans, and their associates, was brought about over land. After the ceding of the lands by Norway, in 1265 at the Treaty of Perth, the northern isles, Skye and Lewis included, were, in the main, held as part of the Earldom of Ross. However, in 1335, a charter had been granted of both these islands to [[Macdonald-91|John of Islay]], afterwards the first Lord of the Isles. In 1344 the grant of Lewis was confirmed but Skye reverted to the Earl of Ross. When Robert Stewart ascended the throne as Robert II, in 1371, the island of Harris, along with the lands of Moidart, Arisaig, Morar, Knoydart, Uist, Barra, Rum and Eigg, were granted to John Macdonald, Lord of the Isles, by Robert II, as part of the arrangement surrounding his daughter's marriage to John MacDonald. Thus, in 1392, Clan MacLeod held their estates under three feudal superiors. In Glenelg a tenant ''in capite'' (to the King) under a charter of 1342; in Harris a vassal of the Lord of the Isles, in Skye a vassal of the Earl of Ross. However Donald, in 1380, likely at the time of his marriage, maintained that he had been given Skye as the marriage portion for his wife, [[Leslie-169|Mary Leslie]], daughter to the Countess of Ross. Donald MacDonald was more aggressive and less politically astute than his father. He made a grant of Harris, the North Isle, and part of Skye to Ranald, second son of John Macdonald and Amy Macruari, ancestors of the Clan Ranald family, the disinherited brothers. Nominally the charter only conveyed the feudal superiority but in reality it was intended to convey the actual possession of the land, and the real object of the attacks made by the Macdonalds against the Macleods was to secure this. Donald invaded Skye. At this time the MacLeods were fighting for their very existence. [[Image:Doug_s_Photos-18.jpg|150px]] A large force of MacDonalds under Alastair, brother of the Lord of the Isles (the ancestor of the MacDonalds of Keppoch) landed at Eynort. William MacLeod collected his clan, and met the invaders at the head of Loch Sligachan. After, what is described as, "a fierce and bloody contest" the MacDonalds fled. Alastair MacDonald had been killed by "Tormod Coil MacLeod, a cousin of the Chief, and son of his uncle Murdo" (not yet entirley sure who these are). Few of the MacDonalds escaped alive, their galleys having been captured by MacCaskill, who put every soul on board to death, and carried their heads to Dunvegan, where they were numbered and delivered to the Chief's warder. After the battle at Loch Sligachan, William divided the spoil amongst his followers at the foot of a rock which has ever since been called Creag na Feanish, or the Rock of the Spoil. (This rock is said to be the 'Bloody Stone' in Hartacorrie.) Much of the information above is from the MacLeods source mentioned below. However it is worth noting Alastair MacDonald, brother to The Lord of the Isles, and ancestor of the Keppel MacDonalds is not known to have died here. Further the names of Tormod Coil MacLeod, a cousin of the Chief, and son of his uncle Murdo, do not seem to accord with the history of the family, even as recorded by the historian. == Sources == * Source S-1{{MLA citation| title= ''The Macleods of Dunvegan from the time of Leod to the end of the seventeenth century''|volume= Vol. I|author= Roderick Charles MacLeod| publisher= Clan MacLeod| publication-place= Edinburgh| year= 1927 |url=https://archive.org/details/macleodsofdunveg00macl| repository= archive.org}}

Taking advantage of their lack of preparation, Montrose marched south-west from Blair Atholl towards Perth. Montrose's army consisted of MacColla's 1,600 Irishmen and 800 Highlanders of the Stewart, Robertson and Graham clans who had been called out against MacColla but were persuaded to follow Montrose. Perth was defended by a hastily-assembled force of Covenanter troops and local levies under the command of Lord Elcho and the Earl of Tullibardine. Although the Royalists later claimed to have faced up to 6,000 men, there were probably around 2,000 foot and 400 horse, many of whom were local levies, newly-recruited and untrained. The Covenanters confronted Montrose on open ground at Tippermuir on the plain of Strathearn to the west of Perth on 1 September 1644. Tullibardine commanded the infantry in the centre, Lord Elcho led the cavalry on the right, Sir James Scott of Rossie led the cavalry on the left. The Covenanters also had two small pieces of field artillery. MacColla's Irish Brigade drew up in six ranks in the centre of the Royalist position. To avoid being outflanked by the Covenanter cavalry, Montrose deployed his Highland troops on the flanks in lines only three deep over a wider front than the Covenanters. Montrose himself commanded the right wing, Lord Kilpont commanded the left. While most of the Royalists were conventionally armed with pike and shot, a number of MacDonald archers are also said to have been present. The battle opened with skirmishing between musketeers of the opposing armies in the centre. When the Covenanter advance guard fell back, Montrose ordered a general advance all along his line. As MacColla's Irishmen bore down upon them, most of Tullibarne's infantry in the centre turned and ran. On the Royalist right wing, Montrose led his Highlanders to occupy an area of relatively high ground before the Covenanter cavalry could reach them. After firing a single volley, the Highlanders charged, throwing stones and attacking with swords. Unnerved, the cavalry wheeled and fled, colliding with the infantry that had stayed on the field and causing a general rout. When the Royalists overran and captured the Covenanter artillery, the rout became complete. The town of Perth surrendered immediately and a large quantity of weapons and supplies was captured. Details of casualties are not known for certain, though the Covenanters claimed that their soldiers were massacred by Montrose's followers and the town plundered.

Clan Bonner/Bonar did not become fully absorbed into Clan Graham and to this day still maintains a separate tartan. '''Clan Bonner''' Bonner/Bonar Surname: The name BONNER was derived from the Old French 'bonair' a name given to one who was debonair, civil, gentle and courteous. The Bonner name arrived in England, Ireland and Scotland after the Norman Conquest in the 11th Century. [http://www.surnamedb.com/Surname/Bonner] Meaning 'gentle' (from the French) or `Bona res...' A good thing, this reputedly spoken by the King of France after a very un-gentle act of war on the part of Guilhen de Bonares as he was called thereafter.

[[Category: Scotland Project Managed FSPs]] ==Braemar (Scottish Gaelic: ''Bràigh Mhàrr'')== Braemar is a village in Aberdeenshire around 58 miles (93 km) west of Aberdeen in the Highlands. It is the closest significant settlement to the upper course of the River Dee, sitting at an altitude of 339 metres (1,112 ft). Historically the village is situated in the upper end of the historical Earldom of Mar. The use of Braemar to specifically refer to the village dates to around 1870. Malcolm III with his first Queen came to the area around 1059 and, according to legend, held a great gathering at the original settlement of Doldencha, situated under the present-day graveyard. He is also credited with having built a timber bridge across the Clunie and the original Kindrochit Castle, located in a strategic relation to the crossings of the Grampian Mounth. On 6 September 1715, John Erskine, Earl of Mar, raised the Jacobite standard at Braemar, instigating the 1715 rising against the Hanoverian Succession. In 1795, a Roman Catholic chapel was built on the high-ground to the west of Auchendryne, giving the name to Chapel Brae which was being used as a school. [[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Braemar]]

It is separated on the north from Argyllshire by the straits called the Kyles of Bute, and on the west, from the penisula of Cantyre, by the Kilbrannan Sound. It comprises an area of about 257 square miles or 164,480 acres. The Isle of Bute was for centuries the property of the '''Stuarts''', descendants of Sir John Stuart, son of King Robert II. The Isle of Arran was for centuries the property of the '''Hamiltons'''. There are seven parishes. The civil business of the county is transacted at the royal burgh of Rothesay on the isle of Bute, which is the only town in the county. There are several villages. Bute is diversified with hills for pasture and valleys for cultivation. Arran is rugged and mountainous, interspersed with glens. Both islands have fine bays. === Parish Resources === Parish No. *Cumbrae 552 http://familysearch.org/learn/wiki/en/Cumbraes,_Bute,_Scotland_Church_Records *Kilbride 553 http://familysearch.org/learn/wiki/en/Kilbride,_Bute,_Scotland_Church_Records *Kilmory 554 https://www.familysearch.org/wiki/en/Kilmory,_Buteshire,_Scotland_Genealogy *Kingarth 555 http://familysearch.org/learn/wiki/en/Kingarth,_Bute,_Scotland_Church_Records *Lochranza (see also Kilmory) 557 http://familysearch.org/learn/wiki/en/Lochranza,_Bute,_Scotland_Church_Records *North Bute (see also Rothesay) 557 http://familysearch.org/learn/wiki/en/North_Bute,_Buteshire,_Scotland_Church_Records *Rothesay 558 http://familysearch.org/learn/wiki/en/Rothesay,_Bute,_Scotland,_Church_Records === Resources === *[http://www.rootschat.com/forum/buteshire/?PHPSESSID=2v15ammdco7l97p95umjttb416 Rootschat Forum] which has various topics, resources listed.

In Scotland, earlier fortifications had included hill forts, brochs, and duns; and many castles were on the site of these earlier buildings. The first castles were built in Scotland in the 11th and 12th centuries, with the introduction of Flemish/Norman influence. These motte and bailey castles were replaced with the first stone-built castles from around 1200. :For Categorisation: If categorising a castle, please use the name of the castle as seen on wikipedia.

Upon his return, the Earl complained about the interloper to King Alexander III, won back his land and incorporated the tower that had been built into his own castle. David II Strathbogie, Earl of Atholl (died 1326), forfeited the titles and estates after rebelling against Robert the Bruce in 1322. The earldom was granted to a number of individuals until 1457 when James II granted it to his half-brother John Stewart (1440–1512). John Murray, son of the second Earl of Tullibardine, was created Earl of Atholl in 1629, and the title has since remained in the Murray family.

Last edited on 21 February 2023, at 09:54 (UTC), https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bernardino_de%27_Conti The Seattle Art Museum has researched the painting and identitfied it as that of [[Amboise-39|Charles (Amboise) d'Amboise (1473-1511)]]. d'Amboise was a patron of Leonardo da Vinci but d'Amboise commission Bernardino de Conti, a student of da Vincis, to paint his portrait. It has also been claimed to be either [[Douglas-396|James Douglas (1286-1330)]] or [[Douglas-389|Archibald (Douglas) Douglas Fourth Earl of Douglas Duke of Touraine (abt.1370-1424)]].Wikipedia. “Archibald Douglas, 4th Earl of Douglas”, Wikimedia Foundation.

According to WIkipedia, [[Douglas-346|Archibald (Douglas) Douglas VIth Earl of Angus (1489-bef.1557)]] was appointed to the Order of St. Michael was appointed to the order in 1545 by Francis I of France.Wikipedia. “Order of Saint Michael”, Wikimedia Foundation. Last edited on 3 November 2022, at 17:06 (UTC), https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Order_of_Saint_Michael Note that de Conti died about 1525 so wouldn't have painted a portrait of Douglas with the Order of Saint Michael honor. For the other two Douglas Earls, they died well before the Order of Saint Michael was established so wouldn't have been painted with the honors. See other portrait of Charles d'Amboise uploaded to this page. Same scallop and knot collar, face seems to match and similar head gear and badge on it. == Sources ==

It remained a burgh until 1889. In 1900 Aberdeen became a county of a city. This lasted until 1975, when the city was transitioned to a new local government system.Wikipedia Article [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/History_of_local_government_in_Scotland| Modern Era], accessed 02 Dec 2019 In 1974 the parishes of Peterculter, Dyce, Newhills and the Bridge of Don area of Old Machar parish were incorporated into the City of Aberdeen District. In 1975 the city became part of the City of Aberdeen District within the Grampian Region. Like Dundee, Edinburgh, and Glasgow, the city districts had city status.Wikipedia Article [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Local_government_areas_of_Scotland_(1973%E2%80%931996)| Structure], accessed 02 Dec 2019 These were dissolved in 1996.

In 1336, the city was burned to the ground by Edward III of England. When the city was rebuilt, it was fortified against further attacks. The gates to the city were removed by 1770.Wikipedia Article [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aberdeen#History| History of Aberdeen], accessed 02 Dec 2019 In the early 18th century, social services were provided by the city. The Infirmary at Woolmanhill was operational by 1742, and the Lunatic Asylum, by 1779.Wikipedia Article [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aberdeen#History| History of Aberdeen], accessed 02 Dec 2019 In the 1800s, the city experienced some economic turmoil, but recovered with the introduction and growth of its shipbuilding and fishing industries. Gas street lighting was provided in 1824, while an underground sewer system was implemented in 1865. Aberdeen was incorporated as a city in 1891 and includes the former burghs of Old Aberdeen, Woodside, and Torry.Wikipedia Article [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aberdeen#History| History of Aberdeen], accessed 02 Dec 2019 During the Second World War, the city was attacked 32 times, by the German bombers.

During his reign from 1058 to 1093, it is tradition that the first John of Abercromby served as one of the great officers of the monarch's household. Creditability may be found in the circumstance that the descendants of the first owner of Abercromby in Fife continued for several generations to use the name of Cocus or Coquus, which was taken from the position or office held by their ancestor at the court of King Malcolm. Very little is known in the next century of the family or their doings, except for their name in charters. The last to make use of the prefix to the name seems to have been John Cocus, or Coquus, de Abercromby. By 1270, Richard de Abercromby, who appears to be his son and successor, is dead. William de Abercromby, his son, is ''retoured'' as heir in the lands of "Abbeyrcrummy" to his father Richard. In 1296, William and his son, John de Abercromby of Fife, signed the famous '''Ragman Roll''' promising fealty to Edward I of England. It may be, however, that their signatures were given under coercion. Although William's name does not appear again, John of Abercromby's name is found on a Roll of the Knights and Barons of Fife summoned to take part in a Court of Justice held by King Robert I in 1312 at Cupar. Humphry, another son of William of Abercromby, and a brother of John, appears to have been a more ardent supporter of the royal Bruce. In 1313 or 1315, he received his charter of northern lands. After 1340, Humphry was succeeded in the north by his heir Alexander de Abercromby of Petmathen. At Forglen, a charter shows that Alexander de Abercromby of Petmathen succeeded Humphry around 1340. He acquired "Park of Galcorse" about 1350, probably as a wedding present for David & his bride, Margaret of Leslie, daughter of Sir Andrew de Leslie. Their son John of Petmathen was in the Battle of Harlaw, 15 miles N. of Aberdeen, on 24 July 1411. He was married to an unknown and died in 1430, the same year that his son Humphrey, of Petmathen, was born. On 4 June 1457, Humphrey de Abercromby received from King James II a charter of his lands of "Petmathen." He died ca. 1472. Humphrey's son Alexander de Abercromby, Lord of Pitmedden and Ley, married ca. c1450 Agnes Johnstoun, daughter of Gilbert de Johnoun, the younger, and his wife Elizabeth Vaus, of "Caskieben" in Aberdeenshire. Alexander died after 1488. Alexander and Agnes's son, Alexander de Abercromby, of Pitmedden and Ley, married Janet Ogilvy, daughter of Sir James Ogilvy of Deskford and Findlater, on 26 Sept. 1472 in the Cathedral Church of Aberdeen. They had at least four children before he died earlier than before 1505. Their son, George Abercromby, of Pitmedden, Ley, & Birkenbog, received from King James IV a Royal Charter of the lands of Pitmedden, Pitmachie, Carden, Newton, & others included. Following his marriage to Christian Barclay in 1524, he was usually styled "Tenementer of Ley." They lived at Birkenbog in Banffshire. When he died in 1552, his body was interred in the Abercromby chapel of the Church of Fordyce, 3 miles from Birkenbog. James Abercromby, of Pitmedden, son of George and Christian, on 13 July 1527, had charter of Pitmedden. At Tolquhon, on 13 July 1527, he married Marjory Hay, daughter of William Hay, 4th Earl of Errol, and Lord High Constable of Scotland. On the day of his wedding, his father granted to him by charter the lands of Pitmedden with the greater part of the Barony, reserving certain rights and liferents therein to himself and his own spouse, Christian Barclay. James was murdered at Towie in 1546 by "the Balquhain Leslies and their immediate following, as it did not extend to any other branch of the Leslie name." James and Marjory's heir-apparent, William, had charter of Westhall, 14 May 1544; however, he died unmarried. Their second son, Alexander, Laird of Pitmedden, who married Elizabeth Leslie, of Pitcaple, daughter of Alexander Leslie, of Pitcaple, and his wife Margaret Gordon, in 1547. He had charter of Pitmedden on 19 April 1550. "Alexander and Elizabeth had a large family of sons and daughters, and their lives seem to have passed peacefully and happily for a good many years." That is until Elizabeth died ca. 1572. Alexander was married secondly to Margaret Leslie, of Balquhain. Alexander was murdered at the Moor (Moss) of Cokstoun, Morayshire on 12 March 1594. His first son with Elizabeth, Alexander Abercromby, of Ley & Birkenbog, who was heir, of Towie, and later of Pitmedden, married a Gordon, daughter of Adam Gordon, Lord of Aboyne, Earl of Sutherland. Evidently, she died early, without children, since he was married secondly, 21 Sept. 1583, to Marjorie Ogilvy, daughter of Alexander Ogilvy, Laird of Findlater and his wife Barbara. Alexander was succeeded by his son, Alexander Abercromby, of Pitmedden & Birkenbog, who was born ca. 1584. He succeeded his grandfather in 1594 as 12th of the Northern House of Abercromby and 11th of Ley and Birkenbog. At age ten, he was still under the tutelage of his uncle, Mr. George Abercromby of Overcarden, who "continued to act in that capacity for some years". . . he "lived to see his nephew and ward arrive at the age of manhood, thought he seems to have withdrawn latterly from the management of his affairs in favour of Sir Walter Ogilvy of Findlater. . ." As a youth, Alexander received a knighthood from King James VI of Scotland for whom he was Grand Falconer. Also, he became Grand Falconer to Charles I. In 1602, he was joined in marriage to Elizabeth, daughter of David Bethune (Beton, Betoun, or Beaton) of Balfour. He was a Puritan and acted as Sheriff of Banffshire from 1638 to 1641. When he died ca. 1641, he was succeeded by: Alexander, who was born ca. 1608 in Banffshire, and became the 1st Baronet of Birkenbog on 20 Feb. 1636 with remainder of his heirs male. See: "Baronets of Nova Scotia" by Marie Fraser http://www.electricscotland.com/canada/fraser/baronets_novascotia.htm He opposed the attempts of Charles I to impose the Episcopal religion on Scotland. He was a "Zealous partisan against Charles I" and known as "a main Covenanter." In 1642, he was High Sheriff of Banffshire. "Abercromby led a body of troops to the Battle of Auldearn in 1645, taking the Parliament side against the Royalist forces under the Marquis of Montrose. After the victory of the king's men, Montrose moved east and his troops burned Cullen. Montrose himself occupied Birkenbog, his troops searching and damaging the mansion." "Sir Alexander Abercromby, of Birkenbog, M.P. for Banffshire, 7th in descent from George Abercrombie, whose lands were erected into Barony of Pitmedden 1513." Although Sir Alexander married three times, his surviving heir came from his third marriage to Elizabeth, daughter of Sir James Baird, 5th of Auchmedden and his wife Christian Ogilvy of Boyne. Since there has been confusion about their grandson, James Abercromby, Attorney General for Colony of South Carolina, 1731-34, it needs to be understood that he was the son of their second son, Alexander Abercromby, of Tullibody, and his wife Mary Duff. The Attorney General became M. P. for Co. Clackmannan from 1761 to 1768 and "died unmarried in 1792." At his death in 1684, the 1st Baronet of Birkenbog was succeeded by: Sir James Abercromby, 2nd Baronet of Birkenbog, who was born 1668 in Banffshire. In the city of Aberdeen, on 31 July 1690, James married Mary (Marie) "Catherine" Gordon, daughter of "an eminent barrister" of Edinburgh, Arthur Gordon, Esq. (died 1680) and his wife Catharine (Isabell) Menzies of Kinmundy. "Previously to his marriage, James had been brought up under the charge of his clever and lively mother and of his young stepfather only three years his senior in age." ("The Family of Abercromby," P. 83) He and his wife, Mary Gordon, had 20 children, 10 of each. Member of Parliment for Banffshire, elected in 1693 to replace Lord Boyne. "The 2nd baronet sat as M.P. for Co. Banff in Scottish Parliamnet 1694. . ." (Debrett's Illustrated Baronetage"). He was an active supporter of the first Rebellion of 1715-16 since he was a strong supporter of the Stewart cause. He was "14th of the Northern House & succeeded his father in 1684, in a much diminished but unencumbered estate." "In 1696, Sir James signed the `Act of Association' expressing loyalty to King William, but by 1700 his sentiments had undergone a decided change. The troubles created by the failure of the Darien colony scheme, in which Scotland had embarked almost the whole of her available fortunes, were now in their most acute stage. The active hostility of the English Government together with the jealousy and ill feeling of the East Indian Company and other Colonies led to the enforced abandonment of this promising scheme, thus entailing financial loss and ruin on all classes in Scotland. Feelings of intense indignation and resentment followed in the Northern Kingdom, where the regime of Stair and Breadalbane, the atrocious massacre of Glencoe, and the callous indifference of King William and his Ministers to Scottish hopes and interests had alienated many who had been most zealous in the cause of the new Sovereign." ("The Family of Abercromby," P. 84) During the 1730s, he rebuilt Birkenbog House, surrounding the strong tower of probably the 13th or 14th century. "In a deed of 1636 it is 'The Tower, Fortalice and Manour Place of Borkenbog.' " ("The Family of Abercromby," P. 2) He died 20 Sept. 1734 in debt "after which his son and heir, Sir Robert Abercromby (1705-1787), 3rd baronet, labors for several years to free the estate from accumulated burdens." (Brenda Abercrombie Ledet). Also, from Brenda (Abercrombie) Ledet, who has done exceptional research on her Abercrombie ancestors of South Carolina: "Those in North and South Carolina were, according to family tradition, descendants of three immigrant brothers, William Abercromby (1710-?), John Abercromby (1711-?) and James Abercromby (1713-?), who were the youngest of at least ten sons of Sir James Abercromby (1668-1734), 2nd baronet of Birkenbog, and Mary Gordon (1671-1742). These three immigrant brothers were first cousins to James Abercromby (1708-1775), who served as attorney general of South Carolina from 1730 to 1744 and who acquired a lot on Church Street in Georgetown and 6,980 acres of land, most of it on the Big Peedee River, in South Carolina between 1735 and 1739. In 1739 the attorney general's sister, Helen Abercromby (1713-1791), married her first cousin, Sir Robert Abercromby (1705-1787), 3rd baronet of Birkenbog, older brother to the three traditional immigrants, William, John and James."

Abercromby, a brother of Sir Robert Abercromby, 7th Baronet of Birkenbog, William Smith & Sons, The Bon-Accord Press, Aberdeen, Scotland, 1927.

A separate origin has also been suggested through the Celtic natives of Ulster, the O'Gnimh, who were the hereditary poets or bards of the O'Neills of Clanaboy, and who acquired the anglicized name of Agnew. In English the name was first written as O'Gnyw and O'Gnew.

Alexander I of Scotland granted the lands of Anstruther to William de Candela in the early 12th century.There are a number of suggested origins for William but research points to the Normans in Italy.It is known that William I of England sought assistance from William, Count of Candela, who sent his son. It is likely that this son was William de Candela, who received the grant of land from Alexander. William de Candela's son, also William, was a benefactor to the monks of Balmerino Abbey. The site now occupied by the Scottish Fisheries Museum in Anstruther was a gift from William. The next generation of the family, Henry, no longer styled himself, de Candela, being described as 'Henricus de Aynstrother dominus ejusdem' in a charter confirming grants of land to Balmerino Abbey. Henry Anstruther accompanied Louis IX of France to the crusades and swore fealty to King Edward I of England in 1292 and again in 1296. *[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Clan_Anstruther Wikipedia Clan Anstruther] ===Other Names Associated with the Clan=== '''Anstruther baronets, of Wrae, Balcaskie, Fife and Braemore (1694)''' *Sir Robert Anstruther, 1st Baronet (1658–1737) *Sir Philip Anstruther, 2nd Baronet (1688–1763) *Sir Robert Anstruther, 3rd Baronet (1733–1818) *Sir Ralph Abercromby Anstruther, 4th Baronet (1804–1863) *Sir Robert Anstruther, 5th Baronet (1834–1886) *Sir Ralph William Anstruther, 6th Baronet (1858–1934) *Sir Ralph Hugo Anstruther, 7th Baronet (1921–2002) (succeeded as 12th Baronet of the 1700 creation in 1980) *Sir Ian Fife Campbell Anstruther, 8th Baronet (1922–2007) *Sir Sebastian Paten Campbell Anstruther, 9th Baronet (b. 1962) The heir apparent is the present holder's son Maximillian Sengtawan Pinitwong Anstruther (b. 1995).

This is the best I could find, though it is not very well organized and not adequately sourced. It appears to derive in good part from [https://www.worldcat.org/title/bell-family-in-dumfriesshire/oclc/11726127&referer=brief_results The Bell family in Dumfriesshire], formatting, comments in italics and links are mine. [[Sneed-20|Joe Sneed]] 08/08/15 [http://www.electricscotland.com/webclans/atoc/bell2.html Clan Bell International]. A review of the Border Clan, its history and present day world-wide impact. (This information was kindly provided by William Bell) THE FOLLOWING DATA QUOTED IS APPROVED BY THE STANDING COUNCIL OF SCOTTISH CHIEFS: ''I don't know what the the "Standing Council of Scottish Chiefs" might be.'' "The Borders family Bell may well descend from a Norman follower of [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/David_I_of_Scotland David I] who reigned until 1153 and was, by the end of the thirteenth century, well established in Dumfriesshire, Berwickshire and Perthshire. The name may derive from the French ‘Bel,’ meaning fair or handsome. Since the derivation is descriptive, common ancestry cannot be assumed for all those bearing the surname. The arms attributed to the principal family are in the nature of canting, or punning, heraldry, alluding to the pronunciation of the name rather than its origin. The suggestion that it relates to living beside a bell tower seems far fetched. The Bells participated in the Borders disturbances as one of the riding clans of border reivers. In the thirteenth century Gilbert Le Fitzbel held lands in Dumfries, Sir David Bell was Clerk of the Wardrobe to Robert II. In 1426, William Bell’s lands of Kirkconnel were confirmed by James I under a charter recorded in the register of the great seal. The Bells, along with other Borders families, became increasingly turbulent throughout the fifteenth and sixteenth centuries. The Crown’s determination to pacify the Borders led in 1517 to Clan Bell receiving royal letters of warning to keep the peace. The tower of [[Space:Blacket_House|Blackethouse]] was destroyed in a raid by the English in 1547. After the union of the Crowns in 1603, the family suffered much the same fate as the other border reivers; many emigrated to the new plantation lands in Ulster where the name is among the twenty most numerous in that province. Others settled further afield in Australia and New Zealand. The descendants of the Lairds of [[Space:Blacket_House|Blackethouse]] stayed in the realm but moved to the cities where they contributed substantially to learning and in particular medical science. Andrew Bell, founder of the Madras system of education was born at St. Andrews in 1753, The college founded in his native town and named after his system is still a respected seat of education today. Dr. Joseph Bell, great-grandson of Benjamin Bell of [[Space:Blacket_House|Blackethouse]] , who was himself a distinguished surgeon, is said to have inspired Sir Arthur Conan Doyle to create his great detective, Sherlock Holmes. General Sir John Bell was a distinguished soldier during the Napoleonic Wars and a friend of the Duke of Wellington. Scottish lawyers encounter the name of Bell in their study of Principals of the Law of Scotland by George Joseph Bell, Professor of Scots Law at the University of Edinburgh in 1829. More recently, Alexander Graham Bell was a pioneer in the development of the telephone. Although the Bells were a Borders family, there are others of this name who are of Highland origin, and in that case, Bell is held to be a Sept of MacMillan." ''The source of the above is not evident, nor are the sources on which it depends.'' '''BELL REFERENCES''' Blacks "The Surnames of Scotland" states "The name Bell was common on the Scotish Border for centuries and the Belles are included in the 1587 list of unruly clans in the West Marches. Families of the name long predominated in the parish of Middlebie, insomuch that the ‘Bells of Middlebie’ was a current phrase throughout Dumfriesshire." J. A. Rennie, in ‘The Scotish People, their Clans, Families and Origins’ writes on the Lowland Clans. He states, "In many ways the great families found on each side of the Border resembled the Highland Clans. The more prominent Scottish Border families had chiefs, clan badges, and slogans and wore bonnet and plaid. On the English side, few families were as powerful as those of the Scottish Barons; the families tended to be smaller and more localized. Families whose chiefs were landed gentlemen though not possessing baronies included "Bell." ''Note above''. Ane Act in favours of Johne Erll of Mortoun, Lord Maxwell his friendis and servantis (Acts Parl., III., 387), contains the Muster Roll of the Clansmen at the siege of [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sieges_of_Stirling_Castle Stirling in 1585], which resulted in the capitulation of James VI., and gives a list of forty Dumfriesshire Bells, including our chief William Bell called Redcloak and members of other clans associated with them. In The Scotch-Irish, Vol II, by Charles A. Hanna, Baltimore Genealogical Publishing Co., 1968, the Bells are listed under the heading of Border and Lowland Clans in 1547 of Annandale. There is also a listing for Border Clans and Chiefs in 1597 including the Bells of Annandale. Additional data regarding Clan status is that in 1596, thirty-seven hostages were taken from every division of the clans, including the Bells. (Caledonia, III., 112). The Bell Family In Dumfriesshire by James Steuart. Mr. Steuart’s original intent was to record the pedigree of his maternal ancestors, the Bells of Crurie, offshoots of the Bells of Crowdieknowe; however, the gathering of data expanded the project and Mr. Steuart was invited to submit a paper on the Bell Family to the Dumfriesshire and Galloway Natural History and Antiquarian Society. This paper overflowed its confines and, from the length of the notes, it was resolved to publish them in book form. Although Mr. Steuart regarded his work to be only a "draft" of what a book should be, it is in reality the only work which characterizes the Bells of Middlebie. '''BELL HERALDRY''' In general, Bell Arms are "Canting" or "Punning," visually allusive to the surname of the bearer. French Heralds use the old expression, "Armes Parlantes," or "Speaking Arms." Many examples of these "speaking" Bell Arms can be seen in Middlebie and surrounding Kirkyards, carved with varying degrees of skill on flatstones and headstones. The same can be found in Argyll also. '''BELL TARTAN''' Clan Bell, since 1984, has had a tartan named "Bell of the Borders" and informally called the "Dress Blue" that is listed by the Scottish Tartans Society and in Tartan for Me! By Dr. Philip D. Smith. There is now a second tartan which was acquired when the Clan Bell International and Clan Bell Descendants merged. The tartan is named "Bell South." Both tartans will be registered with the Lord Lyon’s office at the appropriate time. '''OUR GENESIS IN SCOTLAND''' Our forebears settled in the southwest of Scotland not later than the early 1100s, more likely the late 1000s, and became typical Borderers in pursuit of their survival. They populated the 40 square mile area now called Middlebie Parish in Dumfriesshire where more than thirty major families and their numerous sub-families have been identified. There is an old Scots saying, "As numerous as the Bells of Middlebie." The spelling of the name seems to have varied with the recorder of the event as it ranged from Bel, Bellis, Belle, Beall, Beal, Beale and Bale to Bell. We have found many families whose name has been spelled Bell who have changed the spelling to Beall, Beal and Beale. The genealogical histories of many show both spellings in the family tree. In one early document, the scribe spelled Bell four different ways. He was going to get it right no matter what! The Act of 1587 provides proof that we are a Border Family. During the 16th century, the appellation Clan began to be used in other than the Highlands. The list under "Elleventh Parliament of King James the Sext, xxix of Julij, 1587," gives the name of the Clan and indicates that even down to that date the Bells were under Patriarchal Chiefs rather than Feudal Superiors. The Act was passed "for the quieting and keeping in obedience of the disorderit and subjectis inhabitants of the Borders, Highlands and Isles" and contains "The Roll of the Names of the Landislords and Baillies of Landes dwelling on the Bordoures and in the Hielandes, quhair broken men hes dwelt and presently dwellis. To the quhilk Roll, the 95 Acte of this Parliament is relative." Then follows, "The Rolle of the Clannes that hes Captaines and Chieftaines, quhom on they dependes, of times against the willes of their Landes Lordes, alsweill on the Bordoures, as Hielandes, and of sum special persons of Braunches of the saidis Clannes, West Marche, Scottes of Eusdaill, Beatisonnes, Littles, Thomsonnes, Glendunninges, Irvinges, Belles, Carrutheres, Grahames, Johnstones, Jardines, Moffettes and Latimers." (Reference APS, III, p 466). '''THE CLAN BRANCHES''' In the 1600s, Middlebie Parish encompassed approximately 40,000 acres and was populated by 31 major Bell families. The Albie branch of the Bells, Pennersax Parish, was of considerable importance in the district and quite possibly among the first Bells to hold land, prior to 1300, in what became Middlebie Parish in 1609. From this branch of the clan sprang the holders of [[Space:Blacket_House|Blackethouse]] , Godsbrig (of Scotsbrig), Auldhall, Satur and Land. There were also Bells in Gilsland on the English side of the Border that had close ties with their Middlebie cousins. ==Clan Branches== The Scottish Branches of the Clan and their old locations are: *Cowholm in Half-Morton Parish *Pennersax in Pennersax Parish *Kirksleights in Hutton and Corrie Parish *Curre in Corrie Parish *Laverhay and Poldeen in Wamphray Parish *Clynts in Ecclefechan Parish *Kirkconnel in Kirkpatrick-Flemming Parish *Albie (including Satur) in Pennersax Parish *Auldhall and Land *Blackethouse in Pennersax Parish *Godsbrig and Scotsbrig in Middlebie Parish *Dunnabie in Carruthers Parish *Neuk or Broadlea in Pennersax Parish *The Hill or Middlebiehill in Middlebie Parish *Castlebank in Ecclefechan Parish *Middlebie Tenants *Crowdieknowe in Carruthers Parish *Minsca and Torbeckhill and Carruthers in Carruthers Parish *Whitcastles and Whiteknowe in Corrie Parish *Crurie in Eskdalemuir Parish *Stockbriggs in Middlebie Parish *Nether Albie in Pennersax Parish *Between-the-Waters in Carruthers Parish *Hotts in Carruthers Parish *Water of Milk in St Mungo Parish *Winterhopehead in Carruthers Parish *Skellyholm (now Glenholm) in St Mungo Parish *Milton and Newhall in Tundergarth Parish *Tundergarth Tenants *Rammerscales in Dalton Parish '''THE BELL’S FIRST LAND BY PARCHMENT''' On 6th March 1426, King James I confirmed a Charter granted by the then deceased Archibald, Earl of Douglas, Lord of Galloway and Annandale (who died in 1424), to William Bell, "pro ejus servitio et benemeritis dicto comiti impensis," the lands of Kircconveth, otherwise called the Fleminglandis in the Lordship of Annandale, which had fallen to the Earl through the death of John de Carrutheris without heirs, to be held by the said William Bell and his heirs of the Lord of the lands of Luce in fee (Reg. Mag. Sig., 1424-1513, No. 85.). This was Kirkconnel, possibly the Bells first land by parchment rather than by sword. The old site of Kirkconnel was on the left bank of the Kirtle River. Old Kirkconnel was burned during the Great Plague and only the cemetery remains. The property is now owned by the Maxwells and renamed Springkell. ===Other Names Associated with the Clan=== '''THE BELL / DOUGLAS RELATIONSHIP''' Charles Davidson Bell's Memorial of the Clan of the Bells tells of the relationship of the Bells and the Douglas on Scotland’s border in those early days. The Bells were never a Sept but retainers of and allied with the Great House of Douglas by blood as well as friendship. They generally accompanied any of the Douglas in their expeditions and invasions into England and the Bells of Kirkconnel, being valiant men, were always sent upon the most hazardous enterprises. When William, 8th Earl of Douglas, set out for London in 1451 to foment a rebellion against the Scottish Crown, Thomas Bell of Kirkconnel went with him and his name was included in the Letter of Safe Passage. After the murder of William, his brother James, 9th Earl of Douglas, attempted to avenge his death by armed opposition to King James II. Betrayed by almost all his allies, but not the Bells, the 9th Earl lost at Arkinholme on 1 May 1455. The Earl escaped to France, but his possessions went to the victors and the Bell Family, it is said, forfeited Kirkconnel to the Maxwells. The Bells of Blackethouse did not lose their lands. After the fall from power of the Black Douglases, records how that the Bells of Dumfriesshire were ever more turbulent. In 1484, the forfeited 9th Earl of Dougas returned to Scotland with a small Army of 500 men. He rested at Bell’s Castle on the eve of the Battle of Kirtle. '''THE CHIEF OF THE BELLS''' History records that all Bells throughout the kingdom acknowledged Bell of Blackethouse for their Chief. The Bell relationship was acknowledged, even by English Bells, especially when a coat of arms was introduced by using the Bell characters in the chevron. William Bell of Blackethouse, who died about 1628, was undoubted Chief of the Surname and is believed to have used the principal coat of arms of the Family, viz. Azure, three bells, the crest, a hand holding a dagger, paleways proper, with the motto, "I beir the bel." '''THE 16TH CENTURY''' The border area where Scotland and England meet was overpopulated in 1500s, and as a result there was a scarcity of land, jobs and food to sustain the ever growing numbers of Borderers. Like other families in this impoverished land in the border area, the Bell Clan began to break up and re-settle elsewhere. While many a hearty Bell remained in their beloved Border homeland, economic reality forced thousands of other Bells to migrate to diverse locations throughout Scotland and overseas. One group of Bells migrated to the Glasgow area for a time and then continued to Argyll where they settled, apparently in two factions. One faction affiliated with the Campbells. Records confirm Bells worked for the Campbells in various capacities. Of the second faction, there is no valid history. '''THE 17TH CENTURY''' During the 17th century, there was a great exodus from the family lands in Dumfriesshire. Many of the Clan crossed to the Ulster Plantation in Northern Ireland, which opened in 1610, but later sailed for the New World. The Union of the Crowns and the authority of the reformed church virtually ended the Border reiving. Population growth and great poverty provided the impetus for emigration. Even so, there were still some who were restless under the new conditions, and so the boldest Reivers were brought in on the side of law and order. In 1622, William Bell, called Redcloak, Chief of the Bells, was chosen by John Murray of Lochmaben, with nine others to act as a Border Guard on the West March. In 1624, the Earl of Annandale chose Redcloak to help in the same way. After the devastating War of Independence, residents of the Marches were forced by circumstances to return to primitive living. It was in this environment that our Bell forebears character was hammered out on the anvil of survival and tested. Our ancestors used to number their horses in the hundreds and their cattle and sheep in the thousands. The Bells of Middlebie were quite well known, especially for their fighting skills. '''THE 18TH AND 19TH CENTURIES''' Both the 18th and 19th centuries saw a continuing exodus from the Family lands of Dumfriesshire. Many Bells went to foreign lands where they continued to live in concert with the clan ways they practiced in Scotland. Bells were found living in Germany, Russia, Italy, Australia, New Zealand, Canada, Argentina, Uruguay, Chile, the Netherlands and what is now the United States. During the expansion of the Empire, many Bells joined the British armed forces, such as John Bell descended from the Bells of Minsca, who fought at the battle of Waterloo. Others simply moved to the cities to enter the learned professions. Descendants of the Bells of Blackethouse provided a Surgeon Extraordinary to the Sovereign, two Presidents of the Royal College of Surgeons, various Sheriffs, and men and women of Letters. Two Baronetcies were offered, and respectfully declined; the first out of a non-belief in primogeniture, the second because the potential heir had predeceased his father. Scottish literature of the early fifteenth century and later, indicates that Scottish citizens by the name of Bell were by then separated into two classes, viz: those who preserved the Clannish form of government and were referred to in political documents as Clan Bell of the West Marche, and, the other class which was found scattered all through Scotland and England paying little attention to Clannish organization but successfully indulging in literary, scientific and military pursuits. '''THE CASTLES OF MAR''' The "Castles of Mar," namely Midmar, Fyvie, Castle Fraser, Cragievar and Crathes Castle, were built by a prominent family of Bell masons, headed by Master Mason George Bell whose "signature" is inscribed right into the walls of the castles. The castles are located outside of Aberdeenshire, Scotland (Grampian Highlands - N.E. quarter). They are some of the finest examples of French influenced architecture based on the "Z-Plan." In actuality, they are baronial dwellings, not castles, but no one refers to them as such in this day and age. Cragievar castle was featured as the logo for Philip Morris cigarettes for years. '''THE BELL SEPT OF MACMILLAN''' Confusing to many is the Bell Sept of Clan MacMillan. Of much later origin than Clan Bell, and, according to the MacMillans, the Bell Sept of Clan MacMillan possibly originated in Glen Shira at a settlement called Badokennen near the head of Loch Fyne in Argyllshire, far north of the border Bells. For many years, tartan purveyors told Bells their tartan was MacMillan. This has caused great confusion over the years, to the detriment of Clan Bell, as many have wrongly believed themselves to be MacMillan Sept Bells simply because of the tartan. '''THE ULSTER PLANTATION IN NORTHERN IRELAND''' In 1610, when the Ulster Plantation was opened, a good number of Bells were encouraged to journey to the new "land of opportunity." A standard to assist in determining Bell origin for those Bells in North America is whether or not your ancestors came through the Ulster Plantation in Ireland. A certain portion of Scotland was expressly excluded from the "privilege" of sharing in the Ulster experience as it was made a condition that the colonists, both of higher and lower ranks, must have been "born in England or the inward parts of Scotland." This restriction was specifically designed to exclude all persons in Argyllshire and the Isles. The MacMillans and their Bell Sept were of Argyllshire. Nine "major" Bell families are identified as having lived in Ulster. Of them, it is said that between 1707 and 1729 approximately 500 Bell families emigrated from Ulster to North America where they flourished. ==Allied Clans== ==Clan Research and Free Space Pages== ===Other Information=== '''COUNTRIES WITH CLAN REPRESENTATIVES''' Clan Bell is represented in the following countries: Argentina, Australia, Brazil, Canada, Chile, England, Honduras, Republic of Ireland, India, The Netherlands, New Zealand, Northern Ireland, Mexico, Norway, Scotland, South Africa, Uruguay, United States, Venezuela, Austria and Switzerland. "We owe to ourselves, our country and posterity the duty of collecting and publishing such information and records concerning the Bells as may exist or become available.

However the clan does not currently have a chief and is therefore considered an Armigerous clan. The chiefs of the Clan Boswell are universally accepted to have been of Norman or French origin. The historian, Black, gives two variations of the name, from either a vill or manor near Yvetot in Normandy or from Beuzevill near Bolbec. The Lord de Bosville is said to have been one of the Norman commanders in 1066 at the Battle of Hastings. Robert de Boseuille witnessed several charters in the reign of William the Lion and is believed to have been among the knights who accompanied David I of Scotland back to Scotland after he had stayed at the English court. During the Wars of Scottish Independence chief Walter de Bosville was taken prisoner by the English at the Battle of Dunbar (1296). In the same year William de Bosville rendered homage to England. His son was Richard de Bosville and received lands near Ardrossan from Robert the Bruce. During the Anglo-Scottish Wars of the 16th century chief Sir Alexander Boswell of Balmuto was killed at the Battle of Flodden in 1513. Many Boswells fell fighting for the royalist cause at the Battle of Worcester during the civil war in 165, while others were officers in the Parliamentary army, such as Godfrey Boswell of Gunthwaite and Wroxall (1596-1658) who was JP and Member of the Long Parliament for Warwick, and Colonel of a regiment of Foot in the Parliamentary Army, his son William, and son-in-law Geo James Sedascue of Bohemia. Alexander Boswell (judge), the 8th Laird of Auchinleck, was elevated to the Bench in 1756 and assumed the title ‘Lord Auchinleck’. His son, James Boswell, 9th Laird of Auchinleck, was the famous biographer of Dr Samuel Johnson. Sir Alexander Boswell, 1st Baronet, 10th Laird of Auchinleck, the biographer’s son, was created a baronet in 1821. Another distinguished Boswell was Robert Boswell, Writer to the Signet, who held the post of Interim Lord Lyon, King of Arms, from 1795 to 1796. ==Clan Branches== ===Other Names Associated with the Clan=== Variants, Boswell, Bosswald, Bosswall. ==Allied Clans== ==Clan Research and Free Space Pages== ===Source Material=== * McIan, R.

This theory however is challenged by genealogist, Anderson, who points out that most of the friends and dependents of the High Stewards were of Norman origin and it is therefore unlikely that they would use a Celtic nickname for one of their own family. Anderson believed the name to be of either Norman or Saxon origin. The historian, Black, asserts that the first Boyds were vassals of a Norman family, the de Morvilles, for their lands around Largs and Irvine. In around 1205 Robert de Boyd witnessed a contract between the Lord of Eglinton and the burgh of Irvine. Robert de Boyte is listed on the Ragman Rolls, giving homage to Edward I of England in 1296. Wars of Scottish Independence In 1306 Duncan Boyd was executed for supporting the cause of Scottish Independence.Also during the Wars of Scottish Independence, Sir Robert Boyd was a strong supporter of king Robert the Bruce and was even one of the commanders at the Battle of Bannockburn in 1314. He was rewarded for his gallantry, with lands that had been confiscated off the Balliols, including Kilmarnock, Bodington and other substantial lands n Ayrshire. 15th century The chief of the clan was raised in the peearge under the title Lord Boyd of Kilmarnock by James II of Scotland. On the death of that king, Robert Boyd, 1st Lord Boyd was appointed as one of the regents to the young James III of Scotland. Boyd's younger brother was appointed as the military tutor to the new king.Lord Boyd was also later appointed as Great Chamberlain while his son, Thoms, was married to Princess Mary, the king's sister and was given the title Earl of Arran. The family's success naturally brought them powerful enemies and those opposed to the Boyds began conspiring against them. In 1469 Lord Boyd along with his son, Thomas, and his brother, Alexander were summoned to appear before the king and Parliament to answer charges made against them. Lord Boyd realizing that he faced death escaped to England, while his brother Alexander was executed. His son, Thomas, the Earl of Arran, had been on state business abroad and upon learning of the reversal of his family's fortunes accepted his exile but was well received in royal courts throughout Europe. 16th century The Boyd family were restored to royal favour when Robert Boyd, a descendant of the first Lord Boyd received confirmation of all the family's estates and honors from Mary, Queen of Scots.After the Queen's escape from Lochleven Castle, Lord Boyd was one of the first to join her and fought for her at the Battle of Langside. He later made many visits to her when she was held captive in England. He died in 1590. '''17th century and Civil War''' During the Wars of the Three Kingdoms the Clan Boyd supported the royalist cause. They were rewarded after the Restoration (1660) when William, Lord Boyd was created Earl of Kilmarnock. 18th century and Jacobite risings The third Lord Boyd opposed the Jacobite rising of 1715 and commanded a regiment of Ayrshire volunteers for the government. However his son, the fourth Lord Boyd, did support the Jacobite rising of 1745 and fought for Charles Edward Stuart at the Battle of Culloden in 1746, after he had made him a member of the Privy Council with the rank of general. Boyd was captured at the Battle of Culloden and taken to the Tower of London. He was beheaded on Tower Hill on 18 August 1746. All of the Boyd titles were then forfeited, however his eldest son succeeded through his mother to the title of Earl of Erroll and changed his surname to Hay. '''Modern history''' The 22nd Earl of Errol died in Kenya in 1941. His daughter was entitled to succeed in the earldom of Erroll and the chiefship of the Clan Hay but was excluded from the barony of Kilmarnock which could only pass to males. Consequently the brother of the 22nd Earl resumed the surname of Boyd and succeeded to the barony of Kilmarnock. ===Source Material=== *[http://www.heritageofscotland.com/Clan/Boyd/id,6694,clan.php Boyd Clan] *[http://www.celticstudio.com/celticstudio/DATABASE/clans/008b.htm Celtic Data Base Clan Boyd] *[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Clan_Boyd Wikipedia Clan Boyd] ===Image Credits and Acknowledgements===

According to tradition this clan was founded soon after the Conquest by a French warrior bearing the arms of the then royal family of France with which he claimed alliance. The chief's arms even bear the three gold lilies of France. The more usual form of the surname Broun is Brown. It is an extremely common name and is usually a reference to coloring. The historian, Black, asserts that Browns of Celtic origin might have been named after their descent from native judges, who were known as brehons. The Scottish Lowland name of Brown achieved prominence in the early twelfth century in East Lothian. ==Clan Branches== ===Other Names Associated with the Clan=== *Brown ==Allied Clans== ==Clan Research and Free Space Pages== ===Source Material=== * [https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Clan_Broun Wikipedia: Clan Broun.] Accessed 26 June 2017. *[http://www.electricscotland.com/history/nation/brown.htm ''The Scottish Nation: Broun or Brown.''] Electric Scotland.

If you are working on a specific task, please list it here: * promoting the entries of those bearing the name Burnett on Wikitree. * ensuring entries appearing on Wikitree are as accurate as possible, correcting mistakes once spotted. * encouraging interest in and study of Clan Burnett. ===Septs=== ==Clan History== Alexander Burnard, almost certainly of Farningdoun, is considered "The first of the Deeside Burnards, or Burnetts as they were later called". A follower of Robert Bruce, later Robert I, he benefited from his association during the cleansing of the Comyn holdings in Kincardineshire. His loyalty was rewarded, in 1323, with land in Banchory and a position as the Royal Forester of Drum. In 1553, Alexander Burnet of Leys, the ninth lord of Leys began construction on Crathes Castle, which was finished by his great-grandson, another Alexander, the twelfth lord, in 1596. Crathes remained in the ownership of the Burnett family descendants for over 350 years, until 1952 when it was given to the National Trust for Scotland as part of Scotland's heritage. The family continue to live in the nearby manor house and still enjoy the estates. Officially known as [[:Category: House of Burnett|House of Burnett]] '''House of Burnett''' The family of Burnett holds a distinction amongst Scottish families in that they '''chose''' to be called ''House of Burnett'', rather than Clan. However they are recognised, by Lord Lyon King of Arms, and thus bear the same entitlements and legal protection as other Scottish clans. The family originated as a Lowland and Border Scottish family, originally based in Roxburghshire, but is now composed of several branches. The Chief of the Name and Arms of Burnett is James Comyn Amherst Burnett of Leys, Baron of Kilduthie. The Chief of the House resides in the House of Crathes, close to Crathes Castle, the ancient home of the Burnett of Leys. There are a number of family lines under study. If one of these interests you please discuss a sub-project with the point of contact named above. The oldest apparent record of a Burnett, in Scotland was a donation of lands of Letcassy, Perthshire, c. 1170. See:[http://db.poms.ac.uk/record/factoid/49658/ People of Medieval Scotland; Donation of lands of Letcassy] Here, a Walter Burnett appears as witness to this transaction. ==Clan Branches== *Burnett of Leys - Chief branch **Burnetts of Craigmyle (Cadet Branch of Leys): A cadet of Leys, this line died out, in the male line, after 1750. **Burnetts of Crimond (Cadet Branch of Leys) **Burnetts of Kemnay (Cadet Branch of Leys) **Burnetts of Monboddo (Cadet Branch of Leys): Appearing in 1630, this line, a cadet of Leys, stems from James Burnet of Lagavin, the third son of James Burnett of Craigmyle and his wife Elizabeth Burnett. *Burnard of Fairnington: The Barony of Fairnington is in Roxburghshire and likely one of the earliest grants to the family. Likely held around 1230 the association with this Barony had all but disappeared by 1381. *Burnets of Burnetland and Barns: The Burnets held land in Peebleshire, either named after them or from which they took their name. According to a Will, dated 1656, the Burnets are said to have held the barony of Barns since the 14th Century. The property was sold in 1838 was this line was often seen as a contender for the Head of the House. *Burnard of Ardross and Currie: Likely a holding of, or part of the estates of, the Burnards of Fairnington. The property was held around 1340, if not earlier. The holder was declared a traitor in 1346 and the Barony forfeit. Although later restored to the heirs the mae line had expired and the property fell to a daughter, and then to William of Dishington. *Burnetts of Camphill: Of uncertain origins, this line is believed to stem from William Burnett of Craigour, Wester Camphill and Tillihaikie who fell at the Battle of Pinkie Cleugh in 1547. **Burnetts of Elrick: A cadet line of the Burnet of Camphill. *Burnetts of Kirkhill: Kirkhill, near Dyve in Aberdeenshire, was held by Alexander Burnet, a baillie of Aberdeen, in c. 1630. The male line died out in c. 1710 and the estates passed to the family of Bannerman of Frendraught. ===Other Names Associated with the Clan=== ==Allied Clans== ==Clan Research and Free Space Pages== ===Source Material=== * [https://archive.org/details/familyofburnetto00burnuoft The family of Burnett of Leys, with collateral branches : from the mss. of the late George Burnett]; Abrdeen, 1901. ===Image Credits and Acknowledgements===

If you are working on a specific task, please list it here: * promoting the entries of those bearing the name Calder on Wikitree. * ensuring entries appearing on Wikitree are as accurate as possible, correcting mistakes once spotted. * encouraging interest in and study of Clan Calder. ===Septs=== ==Clan History== The name 'Calder' is thought to come from the early Common Brittonic, meaning 'hard or violent water' (the modern Welsh word for hard is "caled"), or possibly 'stony river'. It is found as a place name throughout Scotland: Calder in Caithness, Lanarkshire, Inverness, Ayrshire and Midlothian; Cadder is in Glasgow; Cawdor is in Nairn. Historian William Anderson asserted that the name came to prominence in Scotland through a French knight called Hugo de Cadella, who was created Thane of Calder, later known as Cawdor. The historian George Fraser Black lists Hugo de Kaledouer as a witness to a charter of land near Montrose in around 1178. The early Thanes of Calder – an old spelling of the place name – were appointed Sheriffs and Hereditary Constables of the royal castle of Nairn. This fortification, founded by William the Lion in 1179 was sited to command the ford over the river Nairn near the sea. The third Calder, Thane of Cawdor was however murdered by Sir Alexander Rait of nearby Rait Castle. '''15th and 16th centuries''' In 1454 [[Calder-443|William, the 6th Thane of Cawdor]], was granted a licence to fortify Cawdor Castle on the current site. That fortified castle is now the substantial tower that stands at the heart of the current Cawdor Castle. William's grandson [[Calder-167|John, 8th Thane of Calder]] married [[Rose-992|Isabella Rose]], daughter of Hugh Rose of Kilravock. The marriage was not happy and John's father appears to have objected to his son's bride. John Calder, predeceased his father but left two daughters of his own, Janet and [[Calder-2|Muriel]]. There is some obscurity regarding Janet, and Muriel was born after their father had died but survived to claim the succession. The 7th Thane then tried to have Muriel set aside and for one of his other sons to be placed in the succession. If an entail that had been made in 1488 had stood then the estates would have reverted to the nearest male heir of the Calders. However, as the old Thane had made another entail on his son John, the father of Muriel, and against his eldest son William, he had by royal charter secured the succession to either his male or female issue. Muriel was the maternal granddaughter of Rose of Kilravock Castle who initially intended to marry her to one of his grandsons. However, Rose of Kilravrock was being prosecuted by the laird of Cromartie for the spoil of his lands via Archibald Campbell, 2nd Earl of Argyll who was the justice-general for the whole of Scotland and, to make the process easier, Kilravrock agreed to deliver his grandchild Muriel to Argyll. In pursuance of this agreement the ward of marriage of Muriel was granted to Argyll, "by the king's gift", on 16 January 1495. She was kept in the house of Kilravrock and Argyll granted to him a bond of maintenance and friendship dated 1 February 1499. In the autumn of 1499, Argyll sent Campbell of Inverliver, with sixty men, to receive the child and send her south to be schooled, or to be brought to Inveraray Castle. As Inverliver was travelling on his way with Muriel, at Daltullich, close to Strathnairn, he found himself being pursued by Muriel's paternal uncles, Alexander and Hugh Calder, who had a superior force. Inverliver sent Muriel off with six men and turned to stop the Calders. To deceive the Calders a sheaf of corn was dressed in some of the child's clothes and kept at the rear. The conflict was sharp and there was considerable loss of life. Among those killed were six or eight of Campbell of Inverliver's sons. When he thought that Muriel was out of reach of her uncles he retreated leaving the fake child to the pursuers. A legal fight ensued and in 1502 Muriel's right as heiress was established in law. The following year the old Thane of Cawdor died leaving his sons to carry on the quarrel for some time. In 1510, Muriel was married to [[Campbell-190|Sir John Campbell]] who was the second or third son of Campbell of Argyll. Sir John Campbell then received the estate of Calder. Sir John Campbell died in 1546 but Muriel survived him, dying about 1575. Muriel's descendant, John Campbell of Cawdor, was raised to the peerage as Lord Cawdor in 1796, and his son was created the first Earl Cawdor in 1827. The present Earl Cawdor still lives in Cawdor Castle, seat of his Calder ancestors. The name of Calder did not disappear. John Calder, the Precentor of Ross, came to the assistance of the Calders with the intention of maintaining the old line. William Calder, Vicar of Barivan who was the eldest son of the old Thane, successfully claimed the lands of Little Urchany. John Calder the Precentor also secured the lands in the burgh of Nairn that belonged to the Calders for his nephew, William Calder the Vicar; and the Calders of Asswanly received lands near Elgin in 1440. In 1686 this family obtained a baronetcy of Nova Scotia. The most notable member of this branch of the clan was [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Robert_Calder Robert Calder] who saw substantial service in the Napoleonic Wars. '''Modern history''' During World War II, Sir James Calder was an advisor to the Ministry of Supply. The US Senator, [[Calder-588|WIlliam Musgrave Calder]] was the grandson of Scots from Aberdeen. Calders are still found around Inverness today: Douglas Calder was President of the Royal Incorporation of Architects in Scotland and was also appointed director of planning for the newly created Highland Region in 1974. ==Clan Branches== ===Other Names Associated with the Clan=== Caddell, Cawdor ==Allied Clans== [https://www.wikitree.com/wiki/Space:Clan_Campbell_of_Cawdor Clan Campbell of Cawdor] ==Clan Research and Free Space Pages== ===Source Material=== *[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Clan_Calder Wikipedia Clan Calder] *[https://www.cawdorcastle.com/ Cawdor Castle and Gardens Official site] *[http://portal.historicenvironment.scot/designation/GDL00099 Cawdor Castle and Gardens - Historic Environment Scotland] *''The Book of the Thanes of Cawdor''; John Frederick Vaughan Campbell Cawdor; Edinburgh; 1859; https://archive.org/details/bookthanescawdo02innegoog/page/n10/mode/2up *''The Surnames of Scotland''; George F Black; Edinburgh; 1999; ISBN 1 874744 83 1 ===Image Credits and Acknowledgements===

''Clan Campbell''
The current Clan Chief is Torquhil Ian Campbell, 13th Duke of Argyll, Marquess of Kintyre and Lorne, Earl of Argyll, Campbell and Cowal, Viscount Lochawe and Glenyla, Lord Campbell, Lorne, Kintyre, Inveraray, Mull, Morven and Tyrie in the peerage of Scotland, Baron Sundridge of Coombank and Baron Hamilton of Hameldon in the peerage of Great Britain, 6th Duke of Argyll in the peerage of the United Kingdom, Baronet of Nova Scotia, Hereditary Master of the Royal Household in Scotland, Hereditary Keeper of the Great Seal of Scotland, Hereditary Keeper of the royal castles of Dunoon, Carrick Castle, Dunstaffnage Castle and Tarbet, Admiral of the Western coasts and isles, and Chief of the Honourable Clan Campbell. The chief's Gaelic title is MacCailein Mor ('Son of Colin the Great'). His Grace is also the hereditary High Sheriff of Argyllshire, Member Queen's Body Guard for Scotland and Member Royal Company of Archers. The Campbells arrived in Argyll as part of a royal expedition in c.1220. They settled on Lochaweside where they were placed in charge of the King's lands in the area. '''MacCailein Mor''' Colin Mor Campbell (‘Colin The Great') was their Chief and his name ‘MacCailean Mor' is still used by the chief of the Clan Campbell, The Duke of Argyll, today. Colin Mor Campbell was killed in 1296 and was succeeded by his son Sir Neil Campbell, companion and brother-in-law of King Robert the Bruce. The family headquarters were the great castle (now a ruin) at Innischonnell on Loch Awe, and remained so until 1450 when Sir Duncan Campbell (great grandson of Sir Colin) moved to Inveraray and built the first castle there. He was created Lord Campbell and thereafter a steady string of titles were awarded to the family. His grandson, Colin, was created 1st Earl of Argyll in 1457. '''Master of the Royal Household''' Archibald, the 2nd Earl of Argyll was granted the appointment of Master of the Royal Household in Scotland, a privilege still held by the Duke today. He was killed at Flodden fighting the English along with many of his Clan. The 5th Earl, Archibald, was another military hero commanding a force of his own people which was more powerful than the existing armies of France and England. He was a power of international importance and only fell in defeat when in command of the army of Mary Queen of Scots in 1568. The 8th Earl became the 1st Marquess of Argyll but his devotion to the Presbyterian religion led him reluctantly to enmity with King Charles I. The Earl led the Covenanters opposed to the King and was subsequently executed. The fortune of the House of Argyll was down until the Glorious Revolution in 1688. '''Ending the Rebellion''' The 10th Earl was very much in favour and was granted the Dukedom in 1701, together with a string of titles. Before that, however, he had raised a regiment know as the Earl of Argyle's Regiment of Foot, the unit tasked with the notorious Massacre of Glencoe, an episode inaccurately classed as an act of clan vengeance by the Campbells. The 2nd Duke was a famous soldier who commanded the Government Army at the Battle of Sheffifmuir which put paid to the Jacobite Rebellion of 1715 and was one of the first officers in the British Army to be promoted to the rank of Field Marshal. He instructed Vanbrugh to design a new Inveraray Castle befitting his elevated status. The Duke was created the Duke of Greenwich alongside the Argyll Dukedom, but the title lapsed without a direct male heir. His brother became the 3rd Duke of Argyll; another distinguished soldier who subsequently became the Lord Justice General of Scotland. He was responsible for developing the garden and surrounding poilicies in Inveraray, building the bridges, canalizing the river to enhance its beauty through the grounds and building the watch tower overlooking the castle today. '''On the brink of economic disaster''' The 4th and 5th Dukes were both renown soldiers and the far seeing efforts of the 5th Duke were almost destroyed by the 6th, a charming but dissolute playboy who left a string of debts and illegitimate children. His brother, the 7th Duke, fought hard to avoid disaster and the family fortunes were, to an extent, restored by the time of the 8th Duke who was a successful politician, a Cabinet Minister and Renaissance Man. It was the 8th Duke's son and heir who married Queen Victoria's daughter, Princess Louise, thereafter serving as Governor General of Canada before succeeding as 9th Duke. They had no children and the title went to a nephew. Niall, 10th Duke, was a scholarly recluse and an expert on Scottish History and the Clan Campbell. He never married and the title passed to his cousin. ==Clan Branches== {| border="1" width ="80%" ! colspan="3" style="background-color:#254AB4; color:#FFF;"|Clan Campbell Branches |- |Campbell of Aberuchill||Campbell of Ardkinglas|| Campbell of Argyll - Chief's line |- |[[:Space:Campbell of Auchinbreck|Campbell of Auchinbreck]]||Campbell of Barbreck|| Campbell of Barcaldine |- |Campbell of Breadalbane and Holland||Campbell of Carrick Bouy||Campbell of Cawdor |- |Campbell of Craignish||Campbell of Dunstaffnage||Campbell of Duntroon |- |Campbell of Gartsford|| Campbell Glenorchy|| Campbell of Inverawe |- |Campbell of Inverneill||Campbell of Kenmore and Melfort||Campbell of Lochnell |- |Campbell of Loudoun||Campbell of Lundie|| Campbell of Marchmont |- |Campbell of Ormidale|| Campbell of Otter|| Campbell of Possil |- |Campbell of Skipness|| Campbell of Strachur|| Campbell of Succoth |} ===Other Names Associated with the Clan=== ==Allied Clans== Clan Bruce,Clan Grant,Clan Drummond,Clan Leslie,Clan Maitland,Clan Malcolm Clan Scott,Clan Forbes,Clan Stewart of Balquhidder,Clan Menzies,Clan MacInnes,Clan MacEwen,Clan MacCallum,Clan MacLeod,Clan MacLachlan,Clan Buchanan,Clan MacFarlane,Clan Wallace ===Rival Clans=== Clan Gordon, Clan MacDougall, Clan MacDonald,Clan MacArthur,Clan Lamont,Clan MacGregor,Clan MacLaren,Clan MacLean,Clan MacKinnon Clan MacAlister,Clan MacLea,Clan Sinclair,Clan Calder,Clan MacNaghten ==Clan Research and Free Space Pages== ===Source Material=== *Family History Taken From [http://www.inveraray-castle.com/campbell-family.html| Inveraray Castle] *[https://www.ccsna.org/septs-of-clan-campbell Clan Campbell] - Information about Septs *[https://digital.nls.uk/histories-of-scottish-families/archive/94919570#?c=0&m=0&s=0&cv=5&xywh=-1%2C-152%2C5049%2C3743 Account of the depredations committed on the Clan Campbell] ===Image Credits and Acknowledgements=== ===News/Updates=== :'''''First''''' things first, if you are in any way related to clan Campbell you may want to watch this!

Update: Sorry for my lack of updates. Kids broke the computer. I did however get my hands on some interesting books for the clan Campbell that I hope to use as a source for more information in regards to the family tree. As far as updates go, I have completed the facts you now see below. I have also started providing links to resources, things of interest and what not (the history sources will be there as well Once I get that section complete}.

The first Laird obtained land through marriage into the Galbraith family, which had been granted land in New Kilpatrick by Maldowen, Earl of Lennox. The family produced minor nobles in the Scottish court, perhaps the most notable of which was Malcolm Douglas, the 8th Laird, executed for treason in Edinburgh for conspiracy in the Raid of Ruthven. His second son, Robert Douglas, was made Viscount of Belhaven and is buried in Holyrood Abbey. The family intermarried in the Glasgow area, having links with the Campbells of Blythswood, with landed families across Scotland (including the Duke of Douglas) and more latterly the United Kingdom. The title became extinct in the 20th century; the last 33.5 acres (136,000 m2) of the estate (including the house) was sold to Dunbartonshire county and was subsequently used for the building of Douglas Academy in Milngavie prior to the death of the last heir (Lt-Col Archibald Vivian Campbell Douglas) in 1977.

Current evidence suggests that the Rydderch (pronounced Ruthers in the Cumbria dialect) who is mentioned in relation to the fort, was a local war leader. The fort sat on Birren Hill and was inhabited by members of the Selgovae tribe who were there before the end of the Roman occupation in 400BC. DNA analysis shows that the male line appears in the early 900's from Sweden. The earliest recorded spelling of the surname Carruthers was William de Carruthers who made a donation to the Abbey of Newbattle in the reign of Alexander II of Scotland (1215-1245). Another early recorded spelling was that of Simon de Karruthers, a churchman in the parish of Middlebie, dated circa 1272-1307. In the 13th century, the chiefly family of Carruthers rose to become Hereditary Stewards of Annandale, a position of power and nobility in. Scotland at the time. This was granted under the Family of Bruce (wrongly termed Clan Bruce) and in 1320, the chiefly line of Carruthers under Thomas, acquired a charter of lands called Musfald (now called Mouswald) from King Robert the Bruce, for services rendered. The House of Mouswald was recognized as the chiefly line until 1548, when Sir Simon Carruthers, 10th of Mouswald, was killed in 1548 in a border raid. The chiefship was then passed to the House of Holmains, descended from John, Kings Chancellor of Annandale, who was Thomas' 1st of Mouswald's younger brother. It was John Carruthers, 5th of Holmains who became chief. This continued until John, 12th of Holmains, died in 1809, having taken the family into financial disaster. The Chiefship went into abeyance until 2019. The search for our rightful chief was initiated in 2007 by Dr. George Carruthers, FSA Scot from Fife, a clan armiger. In 2017, a senior member of Holmains was located, and after 20 more months of a rigorous process, the Lord Lyon made a decision. On 19 Aug 2019, Dr. Simon Peter Carruthers of Holmains was confirmed Chief of the Name and Arms of Carruthers.

Thus Angus Mackintosh became 6th chief of Clan Mackintosh and 7th chief of the Clan Chattan. The two clans united to form the Chattan Confederation, headed by the chief of Clan Mackintosh. '''Clans of the Clan Chattan Association''' : Following the defeat at the Battle of Culloden in 1746 the clan was severely diminished in strength and influence. In 1747 several smaller clans united to form the Clan Chattan Association as a way to stimulate interest in the clan history. The Association floundered and a second Association was founded in 1893, but again died out around 1900.

[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chattan_Confederation] {{Image|file=Clan_Chattan_Surnames-1.png |caption=Arms of Clan Chattan Chief }} '''History and Stories''' : ‘The Clan of the Cats' was a very unique confederation in Highland history. The early Clan Chattan confederation had its beginnings in the mists of the 12th century. In 1291 its fortunes combined with that of the burgeoning Clan Mackintosh with the marriage of [[Chattan-1|Eva, heiress of the 6th Chief of Clan Chattan]] with [[MacKintosh-93|Angus Mac Ferquhard]], the 6th Chief of Clan Mackintosh [[:Category:Clan_MacKintosh].|This pivotal union focused and grew the power of the now combined clans towards the central Highlands. Other small clans and tribes soon were linked to the confederacy by marriage or joined for mutual self-protection. The Clan Chattan eventually comprised of a confederation of 16 clans, tribes and families and was the second or third largest clan entity in the Highlands. From Largs and Bannockburn to Culloden Moor, the Clan Chattan was a collective military force to be reckoned with, taking part in many of the significant battles fought throughout Scotland's history. Originally centred in Lochaber, the Clan Chattan’s area of hegemony encompassed the wide geographic areas of Strathdearn/Strathnairn, central and upper Strathspey and parts of Deeside and upper Glenshee ([https://www.clanchattan.org.uk/clancounty.php Interactive Map]]) . :In 1609 the clans signed a formal Bond of Union ''“..that perpetual friendship, amity and kindness may remain and abide betwixt them and their chief in times coming and amongst the saids hail kin of the Clan Chattan.”'' The first witness was the Provost of Inverness. In 2009 on the 400th anniversary of its signing, the clans met to re-sign the updated Clan Chattan Bond of Union, again witnessed by the Provost of Inverness. It was accompanied by various celebrations to ''"highlight the unbreakable ties to the history, land and traditions of this unique tribal confederation. It is also a testimony to the ancient and evergreen bonds of friendship and family relationships that has allowed the Clan Chattan to survive and thrive for over 800 years of Scottish history."'' [http://www.electricscotland.com/webclans/atoc/chattan3.html] : The early history of the Clan Chattan Confederation is murky to say the least. Some historians say the confederation was originally composed of the following clans, who were either allied to the MacKintoshes and MacPhersons by genealogy, or who, for their own protection or other reasons, had joined the confederacy: - the Mackintoshes, Macphersons, MacGillivrays, Shaws, Farquharsons, MacBeans, MacPhails, Clan Tarril, Gows (Clan Smith) (said to be descended from Henry the Smith, of North Inch fame), Clarks, MacQueens, Davidsons, Cattanachs, Clan Ay, Nobles, Gillespies. "In addition to the above sixteen tribes, the MacLeans of Dochgarroch or Clan Tearleach, the Dallases of Cantray, and others, generally followed the captain of Clan Chattan as his friends" Of some of these little or nothing is known except the name. [http://www.electricscotland.com/webclans/atoc/chattan2.html] : Clan MacBain historians [http://mcbainofmcbain.com/the-blood-clans-of-clan-chattan/] say that the original group of Clans who formed the Clan Chattan were related as a family, and therefore the term “blood” was often used for these earliest members of Clan Chattan. These five clans were: * Clan MacKintosh * Clan Cattanach * Clan MacPherson * Clan McBean (McBain) and * Clan MacPhail : The marriage of Angus and Eva, they say, brought four more related clans into the association * Clan MacKintosh * Clan Shaw * Clan Farquharson and * Clan McCombies (Thomas) (MacThomas) : Other Clans then joined the confederation over time for mutual protection: * Clan MacGillivray * Clan Davidson * Clan MacLean of Dochgarroch * Clan Tarril * Clan Smith (or Gow) * Clan MacQueen * Clan Andrish * Clan Clark * Clan MacIntyre of Badenoch and * Clan MacAndrew '''Early Leaders''' :Before there was a Clan Chattan Confederation or Association, Clan Chattan was a more traditional clan in its structure. The early leaders of the clan are as follows: # [[Chattan-7|Gillcattan Mor]], first known chief of Clan Chattan (before about 1090) # [[Chattan-6|Diarmuid]] (around 1090) # [[Chattan-5|Gillicattan]] (prob. before 1153) # [[Chattan-4|Muirach MacPherson]], grandfather of three branches of [[:Category: Clan MacPherson|Clan MacPherson]] (before 1214) # [[Chattan-3|Gillicattan]] (before 1249) # [[Chattan-2|Dougal (or Gilpatric)]] (between 1249 - 1286) # [[MacKintosh-93|Angus MacKintosh]], 6th Chief of [[:Category:Clan_MacKintosh|Clan Mackintosh]], married [[Chattan-1|Eva]], daughter of [[Chattan-2|Dougal]], to become the 7th Chief of Clan Chattan also. (about 1291 to 1345) # [[MacKintosh-27|William MacKintosh]] (before 1368) :The leadership of Clan Chattan was identical to that for [[:Category:Clan_MacKintosh|Clan Mackintosh]] from then on until 1947. In that year, the Lord Lyon King of Arms, the ultimate authority on such matters, separated the leadership of Clan Chattan from that of the Mackintoshes, recognising Duncan Alexander Mackintosh of Torcastle as 31st chief of Clan Chattan through the female line. : For a list of some of the previous chiefs of Clan Mackintosh who were also chiefs of the Chattan Confederation until 1938, see [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chiefs_of_Clan_Mackintosh Clan Chiefs]. :Interestingly, the leadership of several of the other clans that would later make up the Clan Chattan Confederation also sprang from this same line. This interrelationship is outlined in the following chart. {{Image|file=Warren_s_Ancestral_Photos-4.jpg |caption=Clan Chattan Leaders }} '''The Feud''' :In the time of [[Meic_Cináeda-3|Malcolm II]] of Scotland [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Malcolm_II_of_Scotland] the Clan Chattan possessed the lands of Glenloy and Loch Arkaig. It was here that [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tor_Castle Tor Castle] became the clan chief's seat. When Eva married Angus MacKintosh, they first lived together at Tor Castle in Glen Loy for a few years before Angus had to flee from the Lord of Islay, into exile in Badenoch. The Clan Cameron then moved in and occupied the lands, claiming later that they had been abandoned. This provoked about 360 years of feuding that often turned violent over the area. The two clans and their allies fought their first of many battles, the [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Battle_of_Drumlui Battle of Drumlui] (in which the Camerons were defeated), in either 1330 or 1337; this long and bitter feud would last until [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stand-off_at_the_Fords_of_Arkaig the stand-off at the Fords of Arkaig] in 1665. :[[MacKintosh-27|William Mackintosh]], the son of Angus and Eva, had his right to the lands confirmed by charters from [[Macdonald-91|John of Islay]], Lord of the Isles in 1337 [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/John_of_Islay,_Lord_of_the_Isles] and from [[Bruce-510|King David II]] [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/David_II_of_Scotland] in February 1359. These charters and the marriage formed the basis of the Mackintosh claim on the lands, even though they were occupied by the Clan Cameron for many years. {{Image|file=Warren_s_Ancestral_Photos-5.jpg |caption=Tor Castle }} '''The Battle of Invernahoven''' :In 1370 around 400 men of the Clan Cameron were returning from a raid on Badenoch. Travelling southwest up the Spey valley, they were overtaken at Invernahavon by a body of Chattan Confederation forces led by Lachlan, Laird of MacIntosh, consisting of Mackintoshes, Davidsons and Macphersons. Unfortunately, before they could engage the smaller Cameron force, the Macphersons withdrew from the army, after an argument about who would hold the post of honor. This left the remaining Clan Chattan men outnumbered and they were soon defeated by the Cameron force, led by Charles MacGilony - their best archer. :Tradition has it that a man from Clan Mackintosh then went to the Macphersons’ camp, pretending to be from Clan Cameron and calling the Macphersons cowards. As a result the Macphersons changed their minds and attacked the Camerons the next morning with such vigor, that the Camerons were slaughtered - even killing Charles MacGilony at a place now called Charles’s Valley (in Gaelic Coire Thearlaich). The remaining Camerons were “put to flight” up the Truim valley towards Drumochter, turning homeward at Dalwhinnie, west towards Loch Treig. [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Battle_of_Invernahavon] '''The Battle of the North Inch''' :The Battle of the North Inch (also known as the Battle of the Clans)[http://canmore.org.uk/site/28399/perth-north-inch] was a staged battle between the Chattan Confederation and the "Clan Kay" in September 1396. 30 men were selected to represent each side in front of spectators that included [[Stewart-972|King Robert III]] of Scotland [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Robert_III_of_Scotland] and his court, on land that is now the North Inch park [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/North_Inch] in Perth, Scotland [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Perth,_Scotland]. :The Chattan Confederation killed all but one of their opponents at a cost of 19 deaths on their own side, and were awarded the victory. It is not clear who they were fighting: it may have been their traditional enemies Clan Cameron[[:Category:Clan_Cameron]|or it may have been Clan Davidson [[:Category:Clan_Davidson]],|in an internal dispute for precedence in the Chattan line of battle in future campaigns against the Camerons. :Recent historians believe the battle was an internal dispute between two clans from within Clan Chattan over who should take precedence in order of battle. At the King's insistence, [[Lindsay-154|David Lindsay]]], 1st Earl of Crawford and Dunbar, had attempted to get the two feuding clans to settle their differences amicably. This failed, however, which led the two chiefs to put forth the notion of a trial by combat between members of the two parties, with the monarch awarding honours to the victors and a pardon to the defeated. :The clansmen agreed, and on a Monday morning in late September, the clans marched through the streets of Perth to the western banks of the River Tay. Barriers were erected on three sides of the Inch, and the Gilded Arbour summerhouse of the Dominican Friary was adapted into a grandstand for the King and his entourage. As the battle was about to begin, it was discovered that Clan Chattan was one man short, having only 29. They quickly offered Henry Smith (a local harness-maker and armourer) half a French crown of gold and a guarantee that he would be maintained for life if he survived, to fight for the Clan Chattan side. The offer was accepted, and the battle was given the go-ahead. :The two sides ran towards each other and were soon engaged in bloody hand-to-hand combat, armed with bows and arrows, swords, targes, knives and axes. The battle continued until only eleven members of Clan Chattan (including Henry Smith) and one of the Cameron's was still alive. The latter, realizing his was a lost cause, jumped into the Tay and swam to safety, handing victory to the Chattan's. :A vivid account of this battle was written by [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Walter_Scott Sir Walter Scott] in [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Fair_Maid_of_Perth The Fair Maid of Perth]. '''The Massacre of Palm Sunday''' :On Palm Sunday in 1429 members of the Clan Chattan Confederation, including the Clan Mackintosh, attacked a branch of the Clan Cameron, which was assembled in a church in Lochaber. According to Clan Cameron accounts, the church was set on fire "and nearly destroyed the whole clan (Cameron)." In other accounts of the engagement, it is said that "most of the Mackintoshes and almost the whole tribe of Camerons were ''cut to pieces''." [http://www.clan-cameron.org/battles/1429_b.html] '''Battle of Craig Cailloch''' : In 1441, Clan MacKintosh, at the instigation of Alexander, Lord of the Isles, began to invade and raid the Cameron lands. On one of those raids, a sanguinary clash with Clan Cameron at Craig Cailloch resulted in MacKintosh’s second son, Lachlan “Badenoch” being wounded and Gillichallum, his brother, being killed. '''Raid on Ross''' : In 1491 in the Scottish Highlands Clan Mackenzie fought against several other clans, including the Clan MacDonald of Lochalsh, Clan MacDonald of Clanranald, the Clan Cameron, and the Chattan Confederation of Clan MacKintosh. '''Battle of Garbhain''' : This battle was fought between the Clan Cameron and Clan Mackintosh in 1570. Donald Dubh Cameron, XV Chief of Clan Cameron, had died, leaving an infant son, Allan, at the head of the clan. During the battle, the chief of MacKintosh is believed to have been killed by Donald ‘Taillear Dubh na Tuaighe’ Cameron, (son of the XIV Chief of Clan Cameron), with a Lochaber axe. '''Standoff at the Fords of Arkaig''' : The feud with Clan Cameron officially ended at the Standoff at the Fords of Arkaig in 1665. : The Clan Chiefs of Clan MacKintosh and Clan Cameron were ordered by the Privy Court to end the dispute over the lands near Loch Arkaig once and for all. While MacKintosh was declared to have the legal right, Cameron was declared to be the owner. Cameron was ordered, therefore, to pay MacKintosh a large sum of money for the land, but MacKintosh refused to accept it. : Soon thereafter Clan MacKintosh and the Chattan Confederation assembled an army of 1500 men. In response the Camerons raised a force of approximately 1000 men, who took up a defensive stance at Achnacarry. The Camerons’ biographer records that there were 900 men armed with guns and broadswords and a further 300 men armed with bows. It seemed that the battle to end all battles between these two ancient adversaries was about to commence. : However just as Clan Cameron began their attack, the powerful Clan Campbell arrived on the scene. John Campbell, Chief of Campbells, had brought with him 300 men and declared that he would fight against whichever side initiated the impending battle. The Cameron Chief, Ewen, stopped his attack and withdrew all his troops. As a result one of the bloodiest feuds in Scottish history came to an end after 360 years. : On September 20th, 1665, a contract was signed by both Chiefs of Cameron and MacKintosh, wherein Cameron agreed to pay 72,500 merks to buy the previously disputed lands from MacKintosh. Then, at a place called Clunes, around 24 men from each side met face to face and shook hands for the first time in generations. Here they exchanged swords as a token of reconciliation and drank together. [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stand-off_at_the_Fords_of_Arkaig Stand off] '''The Last Clan Battle In Scotland''' : In 1688, the old isse with the Macdonalds of Keppoch, who had persisted in occupying Mackintosh’s lands in Glen Roy and Glen Spean without paying rent, was brought to a head at Mulroy. In this encounter the Mackintoshes were defeated, and the chief himself taken prisoner. But then, the Macphersons of the Clan Chattan Confederation arrived on the field and forced the Keppochs to release their captive. '''The Stewart Risings''' : In 1688, the Mackintoshes supported the new Protestant regime when James VII and II fled the throne of Great Britain. : But, in the Rising of 1715, Lachlan, 20th Chief, was captured at Preston as part of the army commanded by Brigadier Mackintosh of Borlum. He later received a pardon. : Aeneas Mackintosh, 22nd chief, [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chiefs_of_Clan_Mackintosh] had just raised a company for the Black Watch, when [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Charles_Edward_Stuart Prince Charles] arrived in Scotland in 1745, and he kept to his oath of allegiance to the State, despite his wife being the 22-year-old daughter of the Jacobite Farquharson of Invercauld. : Not until January 1746, against her husband’s wishes and when most knew that the Prince’s cause was hopeless, did she raise the clan to fight at the Battle of Falkirk, earning herself the sobriquet of [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lady_Anne_Farquharson-MacKintosh Colonel Anne]. : The Prince stayed at [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Moy_Hall Moy Hall] on his retreat north. The Government army got news of this and Lord Loudon set off with 1,500 men to capture him. However, Colonel Anne did not bother to rouse the Prince, but ordered the local smith and four companions into the path of the soldiers, telling them to shout out as though the entire rebel army was waiting. Loudon was so alarmed that he retreated some 70 miles to Sutherland rather than risk an engagement. {{Image|file=Photos-465.jpg |caption=Moy Hall }} : At the [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Battle_of_Culloden Battle of Culloden], the Mackintoshes and their Clan Chattan allies charged into the enemy lines and suffered massive casualties.

A few years later, at a ball in London she danced with the Duke of Cumberland.

Tradition stating that the Chisholms were a Norman family who arrived in England after the Norman conquest of 1066. The original Norman name being De Chese to which the Saxon term "Holme" was added upon the marriage of a Norman ancestor to a Saxon heiress.[2] According to the Collins Scottish Clan & Family Encyclopedia the Chishom name was known in the Scottish Borders since the reign of Alexander III of Scotland. In early records the name is written as "de Cheseholme", eventually later becoming Chisholm. In Scotland the earliest recorded person of the family is on the Ragman Rolls as "Richard de Chisholm del Counte de Rokesburgh", referring to the Clan Chisholm's seat in Roxburghshire.

The location of Colquhoun (pronounced "ca-hoon" with the accent on the second syllable) is on the western shores of Loch Lomond. Umfphredus de Kilpatrick was granted the lands by the Earl of Lennox in the 13th century, during the reign of King Alexander II. He adopted the surname from the name of the area. Initially, he lived at Dunglas castle, which was not far from the royal Dumbarton Castle. Later, the Colquhouns became the keepers of that castle. The chiefs obtained lands at Luss through marriage in the 14th century. In the 15th century, Sir John Colquhoun became Comptroller of the Royal Household and expanded the estates to include the forests of Rossdhu and Glenmachome, plus the estates of Kilmardinny. Sir John was one of those who negotiated at the court of King Edward IV of England, trying to arrange the marriage of the young King James IV and Edward's daughter. While this was not successful, it was the later marriage of James IV to Margaret Tudor which led eventually to the Union of the Crowns in 1603. In the 16th century, a Colquhoun emigrated to Sweden and began a cannon making factory. Names such as Cahun, Caun, Gahn and Kharun can still be found in Sweden. The Colquhouns were attacked by the Highland clans on a number of occasions. In 1602, following a raid on his property by the MacGregors, Alexander Colquhoun of Luss was given a royal commission to pursue the clan. In 1603, Alasdair MacGregor of Glenstrae led around 400 men from Loch Long into the head of Glen Fruin. The chief of the Colquhouns, with 500 men and 300 horse, advanced up the glen to meet the attack. The MacGregors split their forces into two and while one half began the battle, the other half swung through the hills and attacked the Colquhouns from the rear. They were driven into a peat bog (where their cavalry were useless) and suffered heavy losses. It was following this incident that the MacGregor name was proscribed (banned). It was not until the end of the 18th century that the chiefs of the two clans brought their enmity to an end by shaking hands on the site of the battle in Glen Fruin. The 11th Laird of Luss was made a Baronet of Nova Scotia in 1625. But a few years later he was accused of seducing his wife's sister by means of witchcraft and became a fugitive. The estates were forfeited but recovered by his son. The 5th Baronet of Luss was a member of the Scottish Parliament at the time of the Act of Union and vigorously opposed it. Through marriage, James Grant of Pluscardine succeeded to the estates. His fourth son, Sir James Grant Colquhoun, succeeded to the estates and built a mansion at Rossdhu which was the seat of the chiefs until recently. add a story here, find one here [[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Clan_Colquhoun]] or here [[http://www.electricscotland.com/webclans/index.html 2]] ==Clan Branches== ===Other Names Associated with the Clan=== ==Allied Clans== ===Rival Clans=== Clan MacGregor ==Clan Research and Free Space Pages== {| border="1" class="wikitable" !

If you are working on a specific task, please list it here: * promoting the entries of those bearing the name Colville on Wikitree. * ensuring entries appearing on Wikitree are as accurate as possible, correcting mistakes once spotted. * encouraging interest in and study of Clan Colville. ===Clan History=== '''Origins of the Clan''' The name Colville is probably of Norman origins. Colleville-sur-Mer was a farm owned by a Viking settler in Normandy in the Middle Ages. When the Normans invaded England Gilbert de Colleville was given lands in England. Clan Colville in Scotland and the Barony de Colville, of Castle Bytham in England came from this family. [https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Colleville-sur-Mer Colleville-sur-Mer] Wikipedia The first recorded Colville in Scotland was Phillip de Colville. He was a hostage sent for the release of William the Lion under the Treaty of Falaise. Phillip was also granted the baronies of Oxnam and Hecton in Roxburghshire as well as lands in Ayrshire. Way, George, and Romilly Squire. ''Collins Scottish Clan & Family Encyclopedia''. Glasgow: HarperCollinsPublishers, 1994. Pages 110-111. Note: The Wikipedia article on Clan Colville is nearly word for word from this book. {{Image|file=Clan_Colville.jpg |caption=Colville Clan Map }} The traditional seat for Clan Colville was in Kinnard where they built a castle. In 1449 Sir Richard Colville killed John Auchinleck and in retribution Clan Douglas attacked and took over the castle. After that the Colvilles moved their seat and settled at Culcross House. ===Lowland vs. Highland Clans=== Clan Colville is a lowland clan. Lowland clans seem to have functioned differently than highland clans. When you read about the history of highland clans you learn how they made alliances, fought and functioned corporately as a clan. When you research Clan Colville you will come up with individuals. This is common to most lowland clans. The Norman origins of the Colvilles as opposed to the more kinship based Gaelic culture also probably plays into why Colvilles do not resemble a traditional highland clan. ====Lords Colville of Culross (1604)==== *[[Colville-130|James Colville]], 1st Lord Colville of Culross (1551–1629) *[[Colville-127|James Colville]], 2nd Lord Colville of Culross (1604–1654) *[[Colville-583|William Colville]], 3rd Lord Colville of Culross (d. 1656) *[[Colville-584|John Colville]], 4th Lord Colville of Culross (d. c. 1680) *[[Colville-97|Rev.

In 1128 Thurstan de Crechtune witnessed the foundation of Holyrood Abbey by David I of Scotland. Thurstan's son, Thomas de Crichton is listed on the Ragman Rolls of 1296, swearing fealty to Edward I of England. Thomas's three sons each extended the family's holdings. The second son, William, married Isobel de Ross who was the heiress to the barony of Sanquhar in Dumfriesshire. In 1464 Sir Robert Crichton of Sanquhar was sheriff of the county of Dumfries. From 1468 to 1469 he was also Coroner of Nithsdale. In 1487 his eldest son, Robert Crichton, was created a peer with the title Lord Crichton of Sanquhar by James III of Scotland. Another descendant of Thomas de Crichton was Sir William Crichton who in 1439 was appointed to the office of Chancellor of Scotland, during the minority of James II of Scotland. Crichton organised the infamous black dinner at Edinburgh Castle of which he was constable.] The Earl of Douglas and his brother were invited as guests of honour to a royal banquet at the castle, where King James was in residence. After the dinner the two Douglases were dragged from the boy king's presence and executed on Castle Hill. The Clan Douglas were never slow to take revenge and laid siege to the castle. However Crichton surrendered the castle to the king and a truce was declared. However the Douglases would go on to make an unsuccessful attempt to assassinate Crichton. Crichton was later given the title Lord Crichton.

The castle was a property of the Crichtons, and the present ruins were probably first built about 1370. Sir William Crichton (Willian de Kreitton), Chancellor of Scotland, entertained the young Earl of Douglas and his brother before having them murdered in 1440 at the 'Black Dinner' in Edinburgh Castle. John Forrester slighted the castle in retaliation. The Crichtons were forfeited for treason in 1488, and the property later passed to Patrick Hepburn, Lord Hailes, who was made Earl of Bothwell. Crichton passed through the hands of many families, was abandoned, and became a romantic ruin. It was put into the care of the State in 1926.

If you are working on a specific task, please list it here: * promoting the entries of those bearing the name Cumming on Wikitree. * ensuring entries appearing on Wikitree are as accurate as possible, correcting mistakes once spotted. * encouraging interest in and study of Clan Cumming. ===Septs=== ==Clan History== '''Origin of Name''' Placename, Norman '''Proverb''' - Chad’s bhios maide anns a’ choill cha bhi foill an Cuimeanach. (So long as there is a stick in the wood, there will be no treachery in a Cumming.) '''Animal Symbol''' - Lion Clan Cumming, also known as Clan Comyn, is a Scottish clan from the central Highlands that played a major role in the history of 13th century Scotland and in the Wars of Scottish Independence and were instrumental in defeating the English at the Battle of Roslin in 1303. The Clan Comyn were once the most powerful family in Scotland until they were defeated in civil war by their rival to the Scottish throne, Robert the Bruce. Like many of the families that came to power under King David I of Scotland, the Comyn clan is of Norman origin. The surname is either a place-name possibly derived from Comines, near Lille, in France, or possibly derived from Bosc-Bénard-Commin, near Rouen in the Duchy of Normandy. Richard Comyn, the nephew of William Comyn, chancellor to King David, is the one that established this family in Scotland. His son was William Comyn, who married Marjory, Countess of Buchan. William's mother was Hextilda, the granddaughter of King Donald III). His son was Walter Comyn, the man who acquired the lordship of Badenoch. The seat of power was Ruthven Castle. Ruthven Castle commanded the northern end of two passes over the Mounth, the Drumochter and Minigaig passes. This lordship then passed to his nephew, the first John Comyn. This John was the first to be known as "the Red" Comyn. He was a descendant of William Comyn, Earl of Buchan, by his first wife, Sarah Fiz Hugh. The Cummings claim descent from Richard Cumyn, a Norman noble whose descendants migrated into Scotland, from England in the reign of David I, 1124-53. William de Comyn received a grant of land in Roxburgh and in 1133 he was appointed Chancellor of Scotland by David I. A later descendant, William married the heiress , Marjory, Countess of Buchan in 1210 and became Earl of Buchan. His son became Earl of Menteith and acquired the Lordship of Badenoch by grant of Alexander II. His nephew , John known as "Red Comyn" was the father of "Black Comyn" who was one of the six guardians of Scotland during the minority of the Maid of Norway and later became a competitor for the Crown of Scotland. He married Marjory, sister of John Baliol and their son John was also known as "Red Comyn". John followed Baliol in the struggle against King Robert the Bruce and was killed by the King's followers in the church of the minorities in Dumfries in 1306. From then on the power of the Cummings declined and they never again regained that power. Their estates were forfeited and the main line died out with John, son of John, the "Red Comyn" in 1325. The Comyns of Altyre became the chiefs of the clan and through the 19th century marrying the Gordons of Gordonstoun this name became Gordon-Cumming. When William the Conqueror came to England he had a companion named Robert of Comyn, believed to have been so named from Comines in Flanders, whom he made Earl of Northumberland in 1069. When David I came to Scotland, Robert’s grandson Richard came with him, and was made Chancellor of Scotland in 1133. The speed with which the Comyns established themselves and their power is notable. They settled in Badenoch where the clan’s chiefs were known as Lords of Badenoch, ruling from the impregnable island castle in Lochindorb. Richard married Hexstilda of Tynedale, grand-daughter of King Donald Ban. Their son William became Earl of Buchan through marriage, and his son from a previous marriage became Earl of Menteith and Lord of Badenoch. When King David I’s line ended in 1286, the Comyns were the most powerful family in Scotland, and had claim to the empty throne on two counts. However the crown went to King John in 1292. He was the son of Devorguilla, David’s great-grand-daughter, and John Balliol, founder of Balliol College in Oxford and another of Scotland’s most powerful men. When King John was deposed the Balliols left Scotland and again the most powerful man in the country was a Comyn. Devorguilla’s grandson was known as ‘The Red Comyn’ and ruled with complete self-interest, sometimes fighting for Scotland and at other times for England.He represented the legitimate royal line and so Robert the Bruce stabbed him to death in the Church of the Minorite Friars at Dumfries in 1306. The following War of Independence saw Bruce become King the next month and the Comyns destroyed and powerless by 1308. The Red Comyn’s only son John died trying to avenge his father at Bannockburn. In that Dumfries church in 1306, Sir Robert, John’s uncle, was also murdered. He was not descended from Devorguilla and his descendants were not as persecuted as their cousins. This branch acquired Altyre in Moray and, using the spelling Cumming, it has remained the clan’s chief seat to this day. ===Other Names Associated with the Clan=== Buchan Comyn Cumin Cummin Cumming Cumyn Niven Russell Bad(d)enoch Boghan Chaney(ay Chesney Cheyne(y) Common(sComyn(s) ==Allied Clans== Clan Buchan, Clan Gordon Clan Grant Clan Lamont Clan MacDougall Clan MacDowall Clan Macnab Clan Macnaghten Clan Sutherland ===Rival Clans=== Clan Brodie Clan Bruce Chattan Confederation Clan MacKintosh Clan Macpherson Clan Shaw ==Clan Research and Free Space Pages== {| border="1" class="wikitable" !

This district was once held by the Anglo-Norman 'de Morevilles' in the 12th century. In 1162 Hugh de Moreville granted the lands of Cunninghame to his vassal, Wernebald in 1162. During the defeat of the Danes at Largs in 1263, Harvey de Cunningham obtained a confirmation of the lands of Kilmaurs from Alexander II in 1264 for his bravery and heroism. The land holdings were increased when in 1321 King Robert Bruce rewarded Hugh de Cunninghame with the lands of Lamburgton. When Hugh's grandson, Alexander, wedded, Margaret, the heiress of Danielston's (Denniston's) they extended the land holdings by acquiring Finlayston in Renfrewshire. Alexander then became the Lord Kilmarus in 1462 and acquired the title of Earl of Glencairn in 1488. :The marriage of Hugh De Cunninghame and the heiress of Danielston also allowed the acquisition of lands in Strathblane in the Lennox, with others in Dumfries-shire - from which latter they took the name of their Earldom. Caprington in Ayrshire and this House was held as a principal cadet family which stems the families of Lainshaw and Bridgehouse. :The Cunninghams of Cunninghamhead, Ayrshire, also held lands in Lanarkshire and Midlothian until 1725. The 1st Earl's son is credited with having descendents in the families of Craigends, Robertland and Auchinharvie, and from the Craigends family, in turn, derived the Cunynghams of Milncraig, Ayrshire, and Livingstone in West Lothian. :The Cunningham's roots in Ayrshire spread throughout much of central Scotland to the more remote families and have been traced to Caithness. Ireland also has the name Cunningham but research would indicate that though the present name is similar, many ancestries have a distinct Irish origin. The Earls of Glencairn were 'bonnie fighters' and staunch friends - the 4th Earl was counted as being a friend of John Knox.

::High Commissioner and Chairman: As of 2011 Larry Augsbury held this position. I have not found any recent information regarding who the High Commissioner now is. The High Commissioner is more associated with the Clan Cunningham Society and not the actual Clan Cunningham. ::Origin of Motto: :::*A subject known as Malcolm, son of Friskin, helped the escaping Prince Malcolm by forking hay over him with a shakefork in order to hide him from Macbeth and his soldiers. Macbeth wished to kill the Prince and claim the throne. This deed is said to be the origin of our motto "OVER FORK OVER." :::*Sir George Mackenzie states: the Arms are actually a reference to the office of Master of the King's Stables :::*The Cunninghams were great allies of the Comyns, whose shield bore sheaves of corn. When that great dynasty was overthrown by the Bruces, the Cunninghams adopted the shake-fork used to fork over sheaves of corn as an ingenious reference to their former allies. :Tartan: First appeared in Vestarium Scoticum with dark blue guarding the white, the blue had become black by the time it was recorded in both "The Tartans and Clans and Septs of Scotland" (Johnstone) and "The Clans and Tartans of Scotland" (Bain).

Nowadays it is rendered “Mac an Deòir” in Scottish Gaelic. '''Traditional origins''' The Dewar's are known to have first settled in an area to the south east of Edinburgh. There is a tradition that a savage wolf was terrorising the district around Heriot and a reward was offered to the man who would despatch the beast. Dewar is said to have achieved this and received his bounty. However it is not known if the lands of Dewar are named after the surname or if the surname is taken from the lands. '''Recorded origins''' The earliest record of an organised family by the name of Dewar is in the Ragman Rolls of 1296, where Thomas and Piers de Deware appear swearing fealty to Edward I of England. Lord Borthwick granted a charter for the lands of Dewar to William Dewar in 1474. This Dewar family were known as of that Ilk and rose to prominence, appearing in various charters in the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries. William Dewar sold the lands of Dewar and moved to Carrington that was nearby. From this William Dewar descend the chiefly line of Clan Dewar. The Dewars were commercially successful and purchased the barony and estate of Vogrie in 1719. David Dewar of Vogrie was Postmaster General of Leith and Edinburgh. The Vogrie estates were extremely fruitful, a flourishing Coal Mine was sited there in the mid 19th century as well as Scotland's first gunpowder mill. The Mansion house of Vogrie was built by Alexander, sixth Laird, although the estate has shrunk from 2,000 to around 250 acres the house still stands and the estates are now open to the public as Vogrie Country Park The name Dewar is synonymous with whisky and this was due in no small part by the efforts of John Dewar. Born in 1856 he transformed the business and the industry and was created Baron Forteviot of Dupplin In 1917. *[[Wikipedia:Clan_Dewar|Clan Dewar]] ==Clan Branches== *Dewars of that Ilk And Vogri (chiefs) *Dewar Coigerachs (Highlanders) *Dewars of Cambuskenneth *Dewars of Dupplin ===Other Names Associated with the Clan=== *[[Wikipedia:Dewar_%28Dewar_na_Ferg%29_of_Perthshire|Dewar (Dewar na Ferg) of Perthshire]] ==Allied Clans== ===Rival Clans=== ==Clan Research and Free Space Pages== ===Source Material=== ===Image Credits and Acknowledgements===

The true progenitor of Clan Douglas was probably "Theobaldus Flammatius" (Theobald the Fleming), who received in 1147 the lands near Douglas Water in Lanarkshire in return for services for the Abbot of Kelso. The first certain record of the name Douglas is that of William de Dufglas who witnessed a charter between 1175 and 1199 by the Bishop of Glasgow to the monks of Kelso. Although the Douglases were first recorded in the 1170s, the Douglas family names consisted of Arkenbald and Freskin, and were undoubtedly related to the Clan Murray, and to be of Flemish origin. The Clan Murray were descended from a Flemish knight called Freskin. Though the Flemish origin of the Douglases is not undisputed, it is often claimed that the Douglases were descended from a Flemish knight who was granted lands on the Douglas Water by the Abbot of Kelso, who held the barony and lordship of Holydean. However this is disputed, it has been claimed that the lands which were granted to this knight were not the lands which the Douglas family came from. In 1179 William Douglas was Lord of Douglas and it seems likely that he was Theobald the Fleming's son and the first to take the surname Douglas. His grandson, also Sir William de Douglas had two sons who fought at the Battle of Largs in 1263 against the Norsemen. ==Clan Branches== * [[:Category:Black Douglas|Black Douglas]] * [[:Category:Red Douglas|Red Douglas]] * [[:Category:Douglas of Morton|Douglas of Morton]] * [[:Category:Douglas of Mains|Douglas of Mains]] * [[:Category: Douglas of Queensberry|Douglas of Queensberry]] * Douglas of Ormond and Forfar * Douglas of Selkirk ===Other Names Associated with the Clan=== Dowglass, Dovglas, Dowglas, Dulglas, Douglace, Couglas, Douglass, Dogles, Dowglace, Dulglass, Dulglass, Douglis, Dowglasse, Doubles, Duglas, Douglles, Drysdale, Glen '''Name Variations:''' Dawglas, Dawglass, Dawgless, Dawgliss, Dogles, Douglas, Douglase, Douglass, Dougles, Dougless, Douglis, Dougliss, Douglles, Dowglas, Dubhghlas, Dueglas, Duglas, Duglass, Dugless, Dugliss, Dulglace, Dulglas, Dulglass, Dulgless, Dulgliss, Duueglas ==Allied Clans== Clan Hamilton, Clan Carmichael, Clan Kirkpatrick, Clan Forrester, Clan Maxwell (16th century) ===Rival Clans=== Clan Stewart, Clan Crichton, Clan Gordon, Clan Sandilands, Clan Charteris; Clan Johnstone, Clan Colville, Clan Scott, Clan MacLellan, Clan Ramsay, Clan Maxwell (17th century) ==Clan Research and Free Space Pages== * [[:Category:Douglas Mythic beginnings|Douglas Mythic beginnings]] * [[:Category:Douglas Historicity|Douglas Historicity]] * [[:Category:Lord of Douglas|Lords of Douglas]] * [[:Category: Earls of Douglas|Earls of Douglas]] (1358) ===Source Material=== * [http://archive.org/stream/heraldryofdougla00john#page/n7/mode/2up The heraldry of the Douglases : with notes on all the males of the family, descriptions of the arms, plates and pedigrees], Johnston, G.

From the War of Independence down to the era of the Reformation, no other family played such a conspicuous part in the affairs of Scotland as the Douglases. They intermarried no less than eleven times with the royal family of Scotland, and once with that of England. They enjoyed the privilege of leading the van of the Scottish army in battle, of carrying the crown at the coronation of the sovereign, and of giving the first vote in Parliament. ‘A Douglas received the last words of Robert Bruce. A Douglas spoke the epitaph of John Knox. The Douglases were celebrated in the prose of Froissart and the verse of Shakespeare. They have been sung by antique Barbour and by Walter Scott, by the minstrels of Otterburn and by Robert Burns.’ A nameless poet who lived four hundred years ago eulogised their trustiness and chivalry. Holinshed, in the next century, speaks of their ‘singular manhood, noble prowess, and majestic puissance.’ They espoused, at the outset, the patriotic side in the War of Independence, and they contributed greatly to the crowning victory of Bannockburn. They sent two hundred gentlemen of the name, with the heir of their earldom, to die at Flodden. There was a time when they could raise thirty thousand men, and they were for centuries the bulwarks of the Scottish borders against our ‘auld enemies of England.’ They have gathered their laurels on many a bloody field in France, where they held the rank of princes, and in Spain and in the Netherlands, as well as in England and Scotland, and - :'In far landes renownit they have been' :They have produced men not only of ‘doughty’ character, but of the gentle and chivalric type also, like the ‘Good Sir James,’ and the William Douglas who married the Princess Egidia, justifying the exclamation of the author of the ‘Buke of the Howlat ‘- :'O Douglas, Douglas! :Tender and true !' :On the other hand, it cannot be denied that their haughtiness and turbulence and ambition often disturbed the peace of the country, and imperilled the stability of the throne. On the whole, however, setting the good and the evil against each other, it may be said, in lines which were old in the days of Godscroft, and were then, he says, ‘common in men’s mouths ‘- :'So many, so good, as of the Douglases have been, :Of one sirname were ne’er in Scotland seen' =='''Clan Douglas'''== The Douglases are an ancient Scottish kindred from the Scottish Lowlands taking their name from Douglas, South Lanarkshire, and from there their chiefs gained vast territories throughout the Scottish Borderland, Angus, Lothian, Moray and France. The Douglases were the most prominent family in lowland Scotland during the Late Middle Ages, often holding the real power behind the throne of the Stewart Kings. The heads of the House of Douglas held the titles of the Earl of Douglas (Black Douglas) and later the Earl of Angus (Red Douglas). The clan does not have a chief recognised by the Lyon Court, so therefore it is now considered an armigerous clan. [[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Clan_Douglas 1]] The Douglases were considered to be the most influential and powerful of the Lowland families and who at the height of their powers were possibly the greatest family in Scotland. The first record of this name was in 1175 when [[Douglas-403|William de Duglas]] ([http://archive.org/stream/heraldryofdougla00john#page/n17/mode/2up pedigree]) witnessed a charter by the Bishop of Glasgow to the monks of Kelso. Grants of the land were made to Sir James Douglas one of Robert Bruce's chief lieutenants and famed for his many brave exploits. Unfortunately he was killed by the Moors in Granada, Spain whilst attempting to carry Bruce's heart to the Holyland. His nephew was created Earl of Douglas, later becoming Earl of Mar by marriage. The strength and wealth of the Douglases were a constant threat to the Stewart Kings. At one time they formed an alliance with the English crown and the Lord of the Isles against the Scots crown, the failure of which meant that Lord Douglas had to flee to England. The Black Douglases were thus forfeited in 1455 and Threave Castle was bombarded by the famous cannon, Mons Meg. George, 4th Earl of Angus, chief of the Red Douglases became head of the whole clan. His son, Archibald, "Bell-the Cat", led the nobles rebellion against James III which ended in the defeat and death of the King at the Battle of Sauchieburn in 1488. His grandson also Archibald married Margaret Tudor widow of James IV who had fallen at Flodden. Their daughter, Lady Margaret married the Earl of Lennox, their son Lord Darnley married Mary Queen of Scots and was father of James VI & I. The Douglases continued to play an important role in the life of Scotland throughout the centuries and were ancestors of the Earls of Morton, Douglas, Annandale, Moray, Ormond, Angus and Forfar and the Dukes of Touraine, Queensberry, Buccleuch and Hamilton. It would appear that the senior representative of this house is at present Lord Home (ex-prime minister of Great Britain) but he cannot exercise the chiefship while he is also chief of Home, the heir male is the Duke of Hamilton.

Balmoral Castle was built in 1390 by Sir William Drummond . '''Clan Drummond''' Is a Scottish clan deriving its name from the parish of Drymen, in what was western Stirlingshire. Legend gives Maurice of Hungary as founder of the clan. The name is rendered "Druimeanach" in modern Scottish Gaelic. Clan traditions credit the founder of the clan as Maurice of Hungary, a Hungarian prince descended from Árpád, who is said to have accompanied Edgar Ætheling, heir to the English throne, and his sister Saint Margaret of Scotland, when they sailed there in 1066 to escape the Norman conquest of England. This disregards accepted history that Edgar and Margaret were brought to England in 1057 by their father, Edward the Exile: Edward died immediately (some say he may have been murdered), and his children lived at the Court of England's King Edward 'the Confessor' with their mother Agatha. Edgar, about thirteen in 1066, was elected king of England after the battle of Hastings and the death of his cousin King Harold II, but together with the rest of the English government submitted to Guillaume (William) of Normandy, afterwards King of England, at Berkhamsted two months later (16 December 1066). He later sailed to Scotland, accompanied by his mother Agatha and sisters Margaret and Christian, several years after 1066. In turn Maurice was the son of György, who, according to Europaeische Stammtafeln (E.S.), went to Scotland in 1055 and became ancestor of the Drummond family. E.S. cites a 1959 work published in Warsaw as the source for this. It has long been asserted that the Drummond family was founded by a Hungarian who returned to Britain with Edward Ætheling, so this may be true. According to E.S. and other sources,György was the son of a Non-Christian marriage of Endre I (András I or Andrew I), afterwards, Apostolic King of Hungary, to a Hungarian woman, before Endre 's conversion to the Roman Catholic faith. Endres subsequent Christian marriage to a Russian Orthodox Princess, rendered the non-Christian children of his first marriage illegitimate under Catholic Canon law, and therefore with no rights to the now Christian Hungarian Throne. Consequently, György was obliged to leave Hungary, settling in Scotland, and founding the Drummond family, possibly named from the lands of Druiman which were granted to him either by MacBethad, or Malcolm III of Scotland. His choice of Scotland was very likely linked to the exiled English Royal House, since they had previously resided at the Court of István (Stephen I), King of Hungary, and after the submission of Harold II of England to William the Conqueror, Duke of Normandy in December 1066, arrived in Scotland where they were warmly received by Scotland's King Mael-Coluim III who married Edgar's sister Margaret in 1070.[clarification needed] If the account given by Europaeische Stammtafeln is based on fact, then the present Earl of Perth, Chief of Clan Drummond, is a living representative of the original male line of the Royal House of Árpád, the founding dynasty of Hungarian kings.[clarification needed] Wars of Scottish Independence In the 14th century during the [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wars_of_Scottish_Independence War of Scottish Independence] Clan Drummond fought against the English at the [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Battle_of_Dunbar_%281296%29 Battle of Dunbar] in 1296. The clan's first recorded chief to take the name was Malcolm Beg, whose third son, also called Malcolm, fought at the Battle of Bannockburn in 1314. He is credited with the deployment of caltrops, tetrahedral iron spikes which when thrown onto the ground always have one spike uppermost to injure horses and unseat cavalry. They were spread prior to the battle. After the battle the clan was given lands in Perthshire by king Robert I of Scotland (Robert the Bruce). Malcolm's great-granddaughter, Annabella became the mother of King James I of Scotland in 1394. The Clan Drummond gained more land in 1345 when chief John Drummond married an heiress of the Montfichets and became John Drummond of Stobhall. John's sister Margaret Drummond married David II of Scotland but they had no children. In 1357, John's daughter, Annabella Drummond married, John Stewart, Earl of Carrick and future High Steward of Scotland and King Robert III of Scotland. 15th century and clan conflicts Sir Malcolm, the eldest great-grandson of the aforementioned Malcolm, obtained the clan home, Stobhall Castle, from his aunt Queen Margaret Drummond, David II of Scotland's wife. His brother John's great-grandson, also John, became a Lord of Parliament and the first . One year of [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lord_Drummond_of_Cargill First Lord Drummond] his life was spent in confinement within Blackness Castle after he assaulted the Lord Lyon, King of Arms. He had a daughter, Margaret, said to have been secretly married to King James IV, who died by means of a meal, along with two of her sisters. Although some say it was murder, others claim it was simple food poisoning. Chief Sir Malcolm Drummond married Isabel Douglas the Countess of Mar. He obtained the lands of Stobhall from his aunt Queen Margaret who had first obtained it from King David II of Scotland. Sir Malcolm was murdered in 1403 by a band of Highland marauders, said to have been the Clan Stewart of Appin led by Alexander Stewart, the son of the Wolf of Badenoch. Malcolm was succeeded by his brother John, whose great-grandson, also called John was made the 1st Lord Drummond. Chief John, 1st Lord Drummond was judiciary of Scotland, a Privy Councillor, constable of Stirling Castle and was created a Lord of Parliament on 29 January 1487. Battle of Knockmary, 1490, This battle was between the two long feuding clans of Clan Murray against the Clan Drummond and Clan Campbell. David Drummond was later executed for the burning of a group of Murrays in a church. 16th century and clan conflicts A romanticised Victorian-era illustration of a Drummond clansman by R. R. McIan from The Clans of the Scottish Highlands published in 1845. In 1501 another Drummond, Margaret the fair, enraptured King James IV of Scotland. She was, to him, "The diamond of Delight." Because of his love for her, James originally declined the marriage to Mary Tudor, daughter of the King of Henry VII of England. It is rumored that James had indeed married Margaret and was to have her crowned Queen of Scotland. The nobles, mostly lowlanders and border Lords, feared that the Drummonds were becoming too powerful. They decided that Margaret must die, thus forcing James to marry the Tudor Princess. Margaret, and her two sisters, were poisoned. Shortly after, James married Mary Tudor, which made way for the union of the Scottish and English Crowns a century later. In 1589 Patrick, 3rd Lord Drummond appointed his deputy kinsmen, John Drummond of Drummond-Ernoch, Royal Forester of Glenartney. It was in this post that he cut off the ears of some of the Clan MacGregor who he had caught poaching. In revenge a party of MacGregors, aided by their cohorts the Macdonalds, attacked Drummond and cut off his head. They then proceeded to John's sister Margaret's residence, Ardvorlich Castle on the banks of Loch Earn. Her husband Alexander Stewart, the Laird of Ardvorlich, was away from home at the time the McGregors and their cohorts the Macdonalds burst in, and demanded bread and cheese. The MacGregors then unwrapped John's bloodied head and crammed its mouth full, placing it on a platter in the middle of the dinner table for their hostess to find when she returned with food and drink for them. On seeing her beloved brother's severed head, Margaret, who was heavily pregnant at the time, almost lost her reason and fled into the woods beneath Ben Vorlich, where by the shores of a small loch she gave birth to her child, a son James Stewart. He grew up to be the famous Major James Stewart of the Covenanting Wars, of whom Sir Walter Scott wrote the book "The Legend of Montrose, telling of his exploits. For what they had done to his mother, he vowed vengeance on the McGregors and played a major role in having the Clan itself proscribed. 17th century and Civil War In 1610 James Drummond, 1st Lord Madderty built Innerpeffray Castle. James Drummond, descendant of John, Margaret's father, became the first Earl of Perth in 1605, and his brother John became his successor on his death in 1611, and his sons became Earls of Perth like their father before them. Lord Drummond led his forces in support of the Covanenters against the Royalists at the Battle of Tippermuir in 1644. The chief of Clan Drummond, third Earl of Perth joined James Graham, 1st Marquess of Montrose in August 1645 and was taken prisoner at the Battle of Philiphaugh the following month. In about 1660 the grandson of James Drummond 1st Lord Madderty established a library in St Mary's chapel, the burial place of Drummonds. Later in 1751 on the same site, Robert Hay Drummond opened Scotland's first public lending library. During the battles that followed in the decades after the Civil War the Clan Drummond fought at the Battle of Killiecrankie in 1689. 18th century and Jacobite Rebellion When King James VII came to the throne in 1685, James Drummond, 4th Earl of Perth (later 1st Duke of Perth), had converted to the Catholic Faith, as did his brother, the 1st Earl of Melfort. Therefore during the Jacobite Uprisings the Clan Drummond were largely supporters of the Jacobite cause and the House of Stuart. Chief James Drummond, 2nd Duke of Perth joined the jacobites during the rising of 1715 and fought at the Battle of Sheriffmuir he later fled in exile to France. However Drummond’s Edinburgh Volunteers Regiment, led by Adam Drummond fought on the side of the British government at the Battle of Prestonpans in 1745 and Adam Drummond was captured there. James Drummond, 3rd Duke of Perth was born in France but returned to Scotland in 1734 to live at Drummond Castle with his mother. He was one of Prince Charles Edward Stuart's closest commanders and he was involved in the Siege of Carlisle. Clan Drummond fought as Jacobites at the Battle of Falkirk (1746) and the Battle of Culloden in 1746. At the Battle of Culloden James Drummond, 3rd Duke of Perth was shot and later died of his wounds, he was buried at sea from a boat which was escaping to France. His brother Lord John Drummond went into exile in France. Their cousin, William Drummond, 4th Viscount Strathallan was killed during the battle. For their support of the Jacobite Stewarts through the risings of 1715 and 1745 the property and titles of the Drummonds were twice forfeited. It was not until 1853, through an Act of Parliament, that the title of Earl of Perth and other forfeited titles were restored to George Drummond, who was also in the French peerage as a Baron. 20th century James Eric Drummond (1876–1951), 16th Earl of Perth, served as the first secretary-general of the League of Nations. Lord Perth, a Catholic, was also British ambassador to Rome, from 1933 to 1939, and was chief advisor on foreign publicity at the Ministry of Information during World War II. His successor, John David Drummond, was able to buy back the family home, Stobhall Castle, which has recently been sold again and its furniture auctioned.

The town and port of Dunbar have featured prominently in Scottish history on various occasions. Gospatric, Earl of Northumbria received from Malcolm III of Scotland, the lands of Dunbar as well as other parts of Lothian. In 1128 Gospatric's son, Gospatric II, Earl of Lothian, witnessed the foundation of Holyrood Abbey. He also accorded the rank of earl and made donations to Kelso Abbey. In or around 1184, Patrick of Dunbar married Ada, daughter of William the Lion and was created justiciar of Lothian. Patrick, Earl of Dunbar's daughter received the lands of Home as part of her dowry. This established the line which later became the Earls of Home in the 17th century. The Earl of Dunbar's son, Patrick, went to the Crusades and died at the Siege of Damietta in 1248. '''Wars of Scottish Independence''' One of the competitors for the Scottish Crown in 1291 was Patrick Black Beard, Earl of Dunbar, who claimed it through his royal grandmother, Ada. Patrick's wife was a Comyn who held Dunbar Castle for John Balliol, although she was forced to surrender it in April 1296. Patrick, Earl of Dunbar sheltered Edward II of England after his escape from the Battle of Bannockburn in 1314. Historians have said that if Dunbar had seized Edward then Edward may have been forced to make peace with Robert the Bruce, preventing further bloodshed. However despite Dunabar's apparent treachery he made peace with his cousin, king Robert, and was present at the Parliament at Ayr in 1315. Dunbar was later appointed governor of Berwick where he was besieged by Edward III of England. Dunbar surrendered to the English but renounced any allegiance to the English king and as a result his castle was besieged by the Earl of Salisbury. The castle was under the command of Dunbar's wife, Black Agnes. The English attacked the castle with all the siege craft technology of the fourteenth-century including a machine called a "Sow". However Black Agnes personally directed the machine's destruction by rocks being hurled from the castle walls. The siege lasted 19 weeks and the Earl of Salisbury retired leaving Agnes in possession of her husband's fortress. When the English fled for their lives, Agnes is said to have scoffed, behold the litter of the English pigs. The tenth Earl of Dunbar had vast estates and was one of the most powerful nobles in Scotland. He fought at the Battle of Otterburn in 1388. The Earl arranged for his daughter to marry a son of Robert III of Scotland, however due to the influence of the Clan Douglas, the marriage did not take place. '''Clan Chief:''' Sir Jean Ivor Dunbar was the 13th Baronet of Mochrum and the Chief of the Name and Arms of Dunbar. After his death in 1993 the title passed to his son, Sir James Michael Dunbar, 14th Baronet of Mochrum and 39th Hereditary Chief of the Name and Arms of Dunbar. He is a retired Colonel of the United States Air Force. In 1990 the chiefship was only established after a celebrated court case that was first heard before the Lord Lyon King of Arms, the Supreme Court in Edinburgh, and then finally in the House of Lords where it was concluded.

According to popular lore clan badges were used by Scottish clans as a means of identification in battle. An authentic example of plants being used in this way (though not by a clan) were the sprigs of oats used by troops under the command of Montrose during the sack of Aberdeen. Similar items are known to have been used by military forces in Scotland, like paper, or the "White Cockade" (a bunch of white ribbon) of the Jacobites.https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Clan_badge. : '''Septs:''' ''pending, if applicable'' '''See Also:''' * [http://www.clandunlop.com/ House of Dunlop] * [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dunlop,_East_Ayrshire Dunlop of East Ayrshire at Wikipedia]

Nor were they Normans, or "travelled to Scotland in 1069 as part of the entourage of Queen Margaret of Scotland".

When Elliots and bearers of like variant names first arrived in England with the Norman Conquest of 1066, they left behind the ancestors of the many Elliots living in Brittany today. Results of the recent Elliot DNA project showed that nearly forty per cent of all sampled with Elliot or one of its variants as an ancestral name carried Celtic-Brittonic ancestry.

The origin of the Elliots is surrounded in obscurity; the Elliots first emerging in the late 15th century as a distinct clan led by a chieftain. Clan tradition suggests that the Ellots were first settled at the foot of Glen Shee in Angus; and research has confirmed the presence of an early settlement near the foot of Glen Shee whose name was pronounced Eliot, though spelled Alyth in old documents.

Tradition traces the arrival of the Elliots at Redheugh, in Liddesdale, in the Scottish Borders in the 14th century, during the reign of King Robert the Bruce, planted there to protect the Borders from incursions by the English. In this role, with the Armstrongs, and others, they became Border Reivers, families of cattle and sheep rustlers and raiders, gaining notoriety for the independence of their allegiance and respect for their skill as light cavalry. The ancestral home of the Elliots at Stobs suffered a great fire in 1712, with the devastating loss of all the old family documents. For this reason, Elliot genealogy is based on approximate birth dates, though death dates more certain and the clan lists of chiefs are reliable. :'''''All the Blue Bonnets are Over the Border''''' by Sir Walter Scott (1771-1832) :March!

In modern Scottish Gaelic, the name is spelt “Arascain '''Wars of Scottish Independence''' During the Wars of Scottish Independence the Clan Erskine were supporters of King Robert the Bruce. 15th Century In 1435 Alexander Stewart, the Earl of Mar died and Sir Robert Erskine claimed the title. this also made him the chief of Clan Mar. However the King withdrew the earldom in 1457 stating that it could only belong to a Royal Stuart. Ten years later Sir Robert was created the first Lord Erskine. This unlawful succession was finally interrupted by Mary, Queen of Scots, who saw that the rightful heir John Erskine, 17th Earl of Mar was restored. 16th century & Anglo Scottish Wars During the Anglo-Scottish Wars the 4th ‘Lord Erskine’ led the Clan Erskine at the Battle of Flodden Field in 1513 where he was slain. Mary Queen of Scots had been in the care of the 5th Lord Erskine and when he died she made John Erskine the 6th Lord Erskine the Earl of Mar: John Erskine, 17th Earl of Mar. '''18th century & Jacobite Uprisings''' At the beginning of the Jacobite Uprisings it seemed likely that the Erskines would support the British government. However the chief of Clan Erskine, John Erskine, 22nd Earl of Mar had traveled to London in 1714 expecting the post of Secretary of State of Scotland. However he was not given the job and as a result he became a Jacobite. He then raised an army of over ten thousand men for the Jacobite cause. This force was not used to its potential during the Battle of Sheriffmuir on 13 November 1715 where the Jacobites were defeated. The Earl of Mar then fled Scotland to Saint-Germain in France, whereupon he betrayed his Jacobite associates. He lost his line of the Earldom of Mar and it was not restored until 1824. '''Clan Chief''' The current Chief of Clan Erskine is James Erskine, 14th Earl of Mar who descends from the Earls of Mar, seventh Creation (1565) (as deemed by the House of Lords in 1875). It should be noted that the Clan Mar now has a separate chief; Margaret of Mar, 30th Countess of Mar who descends from the Earls of Mar, first Creation.

Their originator was Farquhar, the fourth son of Alexander Cier (Shaw) of Rothiemurchus, owner of the Braes of Mar in Aberdeenshire, near which the River Dee has its source. Farquhar had a son, Donald, who married the heiress of Invercauld, Isobel Stewart, and had a son, Finla Mór. Finla Mor could be considered the first Farquharson. At the Battle of Pinkie in 1547 he was the standard bearer and died in the battle. He left nine sons, as keen to father as himself, and the clan soon became numerous and influential. In 1595 however, they were not yet as strong as some with desires for Farquharson property, so they wisely entered a bond of manrent with the chief of the MacKintosh, thereby associating themselves with the Clan Chattan confederation. This was a popular form of household insurance in 16th century Scotland. The Erskines attempted to reclaim the Earldom of Mar around this time. John Erskine, 18th Earl of Mar, built Braemar Castle in 1628, towards this end. Eventually however, with his foes rapidly becoming known as ‘the fighting Farquharsons’ because of their increasing ferociousness, the castle was ultimately taken from him and his plans ruined. During the Rising of 1745, the chief of MacKintosh was Angus, who was an officer in the Black Watch, fighting against the Jacobites. His wife, however, was Anne, daughter of Farquharson of Invercauld, and she rallied the Clan MacKintosh to fight under Clan Chattan for the Jacobite cause. When Angus was captured at the Battle of Prestonpans, he was sent home to his wife. Anne greeted him with the words, ‘Your servant, Captain’. He famously retorted, ‘Your servant, Colonel’. From then on she has been known as Colonel Anne. After later saving Bonnie Prince Charlie from capture at one point, Colonel Anne was imprisoned at Inverness for six weeks. Since 1941 the clan chief has been Captain Alwyne Compton Farquharson of Invercauld, and his estate is world famous for the Braemar Highland Gathering, a favourite with royalty since Queen Victoria’s reign. ==Clan Branches== ===Other Names Associated with the Clan=== Barrie, Bowman, Brebner, Bremner, Bryant, Carracher, Clan Christie, Christison, Christy, Coates, Coats, Coutts, Cromar, Farquhar, Ferries, Findlay, Findlayson, Findlaison, Findley, Finlay, Findlay, Finlayson, Finley, Finleyson, Gracie, Grassie, Grassick, Greusach, Hardie, Hardy, Herald, Higgins, Higginson, Kellas, Kerracher, Leys, Lion(s), Lyon(s), MacArtney, MacGaig, MacCartney, MacCraig, MacCuaig, MacEaracher, MacErcher, MacErracher, MacFarquhar, MacFerchar, MacHardie, MacHardy, MacKerchar, MacKerracher, MacKindlay, MacKinlay, MacKinley, MacWade, McKinley, Paterson, Patterson, Pattison, Reaich, Reoch, Riach, Souders, Soutter, Tawse, Tay, Wade, Wood[3] ==Allied Clans== :Chattan Confederation :Clan Buchan ===Rival Clans=== :Clan MacThomas ==Clan Research and Free Space Pages== ===Source Material=== ===Image Credits and Acknowledgements===

Originally the name was pronounced as two syllables sounding like "For bays" but that is largely lost. Established in Aberdeenshire on the banks of the river Don, they had been there long before being raised to a barony in 1271 by Alexander III. Duncan de Forboys paid homage in 1296 to John Balliol and John Forbes signed the "Ragman Roll" in 1296. The main lines of Forbes were established in the 14th century. Sir John de Forbes of the Black Lip, justiciary in Aberdeenshire, had four sons - William the first of the Pitsligo line, John the ancestor of the Forbes of Polquhoun, Alistair of Brux who established the lines of Skellatar and Inverernan. Sir John's eldest son fought beside the Earl of Mar at the Battle of Harlaw in 1411 against Donald, Lord of the Isles and became Lord Forbes around 1445. Forbes eventually became the premier lordship of Scotland. James, 2nd Lord Forbes had three sons, the two younger offspring establishing the Forbes of Corsindale and Monymusk and of Craigievar. The Forbes expanded their territory, at one time covering half of the earldom of Mar. However, over the years, there were feuds with the powerful Gordon clan and the Leslies, culminating in two battles and several massacres. Two Acts of the Scottish Parliament were required to force the factions to lay down their arms. King James VI confirmed the Forbes in their lands in 1582 but the cost of the struggles with the Gordons had created debts and much of the Forbes land had to be sold. Robert Forbes, the episcopalian bishop of Ross and Caithness was arrested for being a Jacobite in 1745 but survived to write a three volume account of the Jacobite Uprising, entitled "The Lyon in Mourning." Involvement of the Forbes in the 1745 Uprising resulted in forfeiture of lands and title. The first Baronet of Craigievar, Sir William, built the outstanding Craigievar Castle in 1626 and it is now in the care of the National Trust for Scotland. Craigievar is said to be haunted by a member of the Gordon family who was murdered in the castle. Another of the Forbes, the Baron of Monymusk, now lives in New Zealand. In 1815, the 17th Lord Forbes built Castle Forbes near Alford which is still the home of his descendants. find one here [[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Category:Scottish_clans 1]] or here [[http://www.electricscotland.com/webclans/index.html 2]] {| border="1" class="wikitable" !

On acquiring the lands of Corstorphine in 1376 he founded a chapel, dedicated to St. John the Baptist, in connection with the parish church there. As Sir Adam Forster, Knight, of Corstorphine, he was one of the Commissioner appointed to arrange a truce at Hawdenstank 8 Oct 1404. Sir Adam died 13 Oct 1405. He was probably buried in Edinburgh, as his tomb does not appear with those of his successors in Corstorphine Church. :Crest: :Motto: :Slogan: :Region: :District: :Plant badge: :Pipe music: :Gaelic name: '''Septs:''' '''Names associated with the clan:''' Forrester - Forester - Forister - Forrister - Foster - Fostar - Forest - Forrest - Forster - Forstar - Corstorphine - Carstarphen '''See Also:''' *

In George Frasher Black's book, The Surnames of Scotland, he suggests that the origin of the surname is two-fold. #From a place of that name due to the frequency the name appears in the old Scottish records with the prefix “de”. # From the old Gaelic personal name Fearsithe, meaning ‘man of peace". He goes on to say that by Gaelic speakers the name is sometimes pronounced Forsay (for-sigh). Another legend suggests a Norman called ''Forsach''.

It is not to be confused with the Clan Fraser of Lovat which is a junior branch although has distinct Clan status. Both clans have their own separate chief, both of whom are officially recognized by the Standing Council of Scottish Chiefs. '''Origins of the clan''' The Frasers are believed to have come from Anjou in France. The name Fraser may be derived from Fredarius, Fresel or Freseau. Another suggestion is that the Frasers were a tribe in Roman Gaul, whose badge was a strawberry plant (fraisier in French). The first Fraser to appear in Scotland was in about 1160 when Simon Fraser held lands at Keith in East Lothian . '''Wars of Scottish Independence''' About five generations after the first Simon Fraser, another Simon Fraser was captured fighting for Robert the Bruce and was executed in 1306 by Edward I of England. Simon’s cousin was Alexander Fraser of Cowie, who was Bruce’s chamberlain. He married Bruce’s sister Mary. Alexander Fraser’s younger brother was another Sir Simon Fraser, from whom the chiefs of the Clan Fraser of Lovat are descended from. One of Simon Fraser’s grandsons was Sir Alexander Fraser of Cowie and Durris. This Alexander Fraser acquired a castle now called Cairnbulg Castle and the lands of Philorth by marriage to Joanna, younger daughter and co-heiress of the Earl of Ross in 1375. In 1592, Sir Alexander Fraser of Philorth received charters from James VI of Scotland for the fishing village of Faithlie, which later became the town of Fraserburgh. Sir Alexander Fraser was also authorized to found a university in the town but this idea was short lived due to the religious troubles of the time. The eighth Lord Philorth built Fraserburgh Castle, which later became the Kinnaird Head lighthouse. This bankrupted him and Philorth Castle was lost from the family for over three hundred years until 1934 when it was bought back by the 19th Lord Saltoun. '''17th and 18th centuries''' The 9th Laird of Philorth married the heiress of the Abernethy Lords Saltoun. Their son became the 10th Lord Saltoun, who was severely wounded at the Battle of Worcester in 1651. He survived thanks to his servant, James Cardno, who rescued him from the battlefield. In 1666, the 10th Lord built Philorth House a mile from Fraserburgh which remained the family seat until it burned down in 1915. Sir Alexander Fraser of Durris was personal physician to Charles II of England. He was educated at Aberdeen and accompanied the king on his campaign throughout 1650. After the Restoration, he sat in the Scottish Parliament and is featured in the diaries of Samuel Pepys. The Fraser family took no part in the Jacobite risings, although their distant Highland relatives in the Clan Fraser of Lovat were Jacobites. '''19th and 20th centuries''' The 16th Lord Saltoun commanded the Light Companies of the First Guards at the Battle of Waterloo in 1815. The 19th Lord Saltoun was a prisoner of war during World War I in Germany. In 1936, he became a member of the House of Lords and promoted the Royal National Lifeboat Institution.

Wikipedia® is a registered trademark of the Wikimedia Foundation, Inc., a non-profit organization.'' ----- Adapted from http://www.electricscotland.com/webclans/dtog/fraser2.html There are many stories about the origin of the name Fraser. According to ''Clan Fraser - A History celebrating more than 800 years of the family in Scotland'' [1997] by Flora Marjory Fraser, 20th Lady Saltoun, Chief of Clan Fraser: The truth of these stories is unknown but it is generally believed that the name Fraser traces its origins to the French provinces of Anjou and Normandy. The French word for strawberry is fraise and strawberry plants are called fraisiers. The Fraser arms are silver strawberry flowers on a field of blue. Only the Chief is entitled to use these arms plain and undifferenced. The Frasers first appear in Scotland around 1160 when Simon Fraser made a gift of a church at Keith in East Lothian, to the monks at Kelso Abbey. The Frasers moved into Tweedale in the 12th and 13th centuries, and from there to the counties of Sterling, Angus, Inverness and Aberdeen. About five generations later, Sir Simon Fraser [the Patriot] was captured fighting for Robert the Bruce, and executed with great cruelty by Edward I in 1306. The patriot’s line ended with two co-heiresses. Sir Andrew Fraser of Touch-Fraser, cousin of the patriot, was the father of Sir Alexander Fraser of Cowie [ancestor of the Frasers of Philorth], Sir Simon Fraser [ancestor of the Frasers of Lovat], Sir Andrew Fraser and Sir James Fraser of Frendraught. '''Frasers of Philorth (Lords Saltoun)''' The senior line is descended from Sir Alexander Fraser, who married Robert the Bruce’s widowed sister, Lady Mary, who had been imprisoned in a cage by Edward I. His grandson, Sir Alexander Fraser of Cowie, acquired the Castle (now Cairnbulg) and lands of Philorth by marriage with Lady Joanna, younger daughter and co-heiress of The Earl of Ross in 1375. Eight generations later, Sir Alexander Fraser, 8th laird of Philorth, founded Fraser’s Burgh by royal charters obtained in 1592, and also built Fraserburgh Castle, now Kinnaird Head Lighthouse Museum. His son, the 9th laird, married the heiress of the Abernethies, Lord Saltoun, and in 1669 their son, Alexander Fraser, became the 10th Lord Saltoun. The present Chief of the Name of Fraser is Flora Marjory Fraser, 20th Lady Saltoun, who is an active member of the House of Lords. The Family seat is Fraserburgh, Aberdeenshire. '''Frasers of Lovat (Lords Lovat) ''' The Frasers of Lovat descend from Sir Simon Fraser (younger brother of Sir Alexander Fraser, the Chamberlain), who married Lady Margaret, sister of The Earl of Caithness. Documents dated 12 September 1367, connect a Fraser with the lands of Lovat and the Aird. Among the lands acquired by the Lovat Frasers, the prominent ones were in Stratherrick, which was very dear to the hearts of the Lovat Chiefs, the church lands of Beauly Priory in Inverness-shire, part of the south shore of Beauly Firth, and the whole of Bisset, who also built Lovat Castle. About 1460 Hugh Fraser, 6th laird of Lovat, became the first Lord Lovat. The 11th Lord Lovat was beheaded on Tower Hill in London in 1747, following which the Lovat title was attained and the estates were forfeited to the Crown. The estates eventually passed to the nearest collateral heir-male, Thomas Alexander Fraser, 10th laird of Strichen, Aberdeenshire, who in 1837 was created Baron Lovat in the Peerage of the U.K., and the attainder of the Scottish title was reversed in 1857, when he became 14th (but for the attainder) Lord Lovat. With the death of the 17th Lord Lovat in 1995, aged 83, his eldest son and his youngest son having died the previous year, his grandson, Simon Fraser, born in 1977, became the 18th Lord Lovat and 25th MacShimidh, Chief of Clan Fraser of Lovat. Castle Dounie was home of the chiefs of Lovat from 1511 until it was burned following Culloden. The current Beaufort Castle, built in the 1880s, was sold in 1995. The Lovat family seat is Beauly, Inverness-shire.

The Clan has been strongly associated with Inverness and the surrounding area since the Clan's founder gained lands there in the 13th century. Since its founding, the Clan has dominated local politics and been active in every major military conflict involving Scotland. It has also played a considerable role in most major political turmoils. 'Fraser' remains the most prominent family name within the Inverness area. The Clan's current chief is Simon Fraser, the 16th Lord Lovat, and 26th Chief of Clan Fraser. '''Origins of the surname''' The exact origins of the surname 'Fraser' can not be determined with any great certainty, although there is little doubt that it came from France. The first reputed record is that of "Frysel" (vowels were at the time often interchanged), recorded on the Battle Abbey Roll – supposedly a list of William the Conqueror's companions, preserved at Battle Abbey, on the site of his great victory over Harold. However, the authenticity of the manuscript is seriously doubted. The first definite record of the name in Scotland occurs in the mid-12th century as "de Fresel", "de Friselle", and "de Freseliere", and appears to be an Angevin name. Although there is no known placename in France that corresponds with it, the French surname "Frézelière" or "de la Frézelière" or "Frézeau de la Frézelière", apparent in France today, corresponds with the Scottish version in spelling and traditional area of origin – Anjou. Apparently while in exile in France, Simon Fraser, 11th Lord Lovat "entered into a formal league of amnity" and "declared an alliance" with the French Marquis de la Frézelière and claimed common origin from the "les seigneurs de la Frézelière". The first annual gathering of the Clan Fraser in Canada in 1894 also recalls this connection. This ancient connection with Anjou is also described in detail in the 18th century document La Dictionnaire de la Noblesse. This document states that a Simon Frezel was born to the knightly Frezel family from Anjou and, sometime after the year 1030, established himself in Scotland. It also states that Simon Frezel's descendants multiplied and eventually became known as Frasers. This would also explain the prevalence of the name Simon throughout clan history, as all Frasers would have the knight Simon Frezel as a distant, but common, ancestor. Another tradition claims derivation from a Frenchman called "Pierre Fraser, Seigneur de Troile", who came to Scotland in the reign of Charlemagne to form an alliance with the mythical King Achaius. Pierre's son was then to have become thane of the Isle of Man in 814. Yet another explanation for the surname is that it is derived from the French words fraise, meaning strawberry (the fruit), and fraisiers, strawberry plants. There is a fabled account of the Fraser coat of arms which asserts during the reign of Charles the Simple of France, a nobleman from Bourbon named Julius de Berry entertained the King with a dish of fine strawberries. De Berry was then later knighted, with the knight taking strawberry flowers as his Arms and changing his name from 'de Berry' to 'Fraiseux' or 'Frezeliere'. His direct descendants were to become the lords of Neidpath Castle, then known as Oliver. This origin has been disputed, and seen as a classic example of canting heraldry, where heraldic symbols are derived from a pun on similar sounding surname: (strawberry flowers – fraises). '''Early Frasers''' Around the reign of William the Lion (r.1165–1214), there was a mass of "Norman" immigration into Scotland. Thomas Grey, a 14th-century English knight, listed several "Norman" families which took up land during William's reign. Among those listed, the families of Moubray, Ramsay, Laundells, Valognes, Boys and Fraser are certainly or probably introduced under King William. The earliest written record of Frasers in Scotland is in 1160, when a Simon Fraser held lands in East Lothian, at Keith. In that year, he made the gift of a church to the Tironensian monks at Kelso Abbey. The Frasers moved into Tweeddale in the 12th and 13th centuries and from there into the counties of Stirling, Angus, Inverness and Aberdeen. '''Wars of Scottish Independence''' During the Scottish Wars of Independence, Sir Simon Fraser, "the Patriot", fought first with the Red Comyn, and later with Sir William Wallace and Robert the Bruce. Sir Simon is celebrated for having defeated the English at the Battle of Roslin in 1303, with just 8,000 men under his command. At the Battle of Methven in 1306, Sir Simon Fraser led troops along with Bruce, and saved the King's life in three separate instances. Simon was allegedly awarded the 3 Crowns which now appear in the Lovat Arms for these three acts of bravery. He was however captured by the English and executed with great cruelty by Edward I of England in 1306, in the same barbaric fashion as Wallace. At the Battle of Bannockburn in 1314, Sir Simon's cousin, Sir Alexander Fraser of Touchfraser and Cowie, was much more fortunate. He fought at Bannockburn, married Bruce's sister, and became Chamberlain of Scotland. The Frasers of Philorth who are chiefs of the senior Clan Fraser, trace their lineage from this Alexander. Alexander's younger brother, another Sir Simon Fraser, was the ancestor of the chiefs of the Clan Fraser of Lovat. This Simon Fraser was killed at the Battle of Halidon Hill in 1333, along with his younger brothers Andrew and James. '''15th and 16th century clan conflicts''' As most Highlanders, the Frasers have been involved in countless Clan wars, particularly against the Macdonalds. Two Gaelic war cries of the Frasers have been generally recognized. The first, "Caisteal Dhuni" (Castle Dounie/Downie) refers to the ancestral Castle and Clan seat, which once existed near the present Beaufort Castle. The second is "A Mhòr-fhaiche" (The Great Field). According to some accounts, the Frasers under Lord Lovat supported the Munros at the Battle of Bealach nam Broig in 1452, which was fought against Clan Mackenzie. There are also accounts of Fraser Lord Lovat supporting the Munros at the Battle of Clachnaharry fought two years later in 1454. In 1544, the Frasers fought a great clan battle, the Battle of the Shirts against Clan Macdonald of Clanranald, over the disputed chiefship of Clan Ranald. The Frasers, as part of a large coalition, backed a son of the 5th Chief, Ranald Gallda "the Stranger", which the MacDonalds found unacceptable. The Earl of Argyll intervened, refusing to let the two forces engage. But on their march home, the 300 Frasers were ambushed by 500 MacDonalds. Only five Frasers and eight MacDonalds are said to have survived the battle. Both the clan chief, Hugh Fraser, 3rd Lord Lovat, and his son were among the dead and were buried at Beauly Priory. At the Siege of Inverness in 1562, Clan Fraser of Lovat supported Mary, Queen of Scots: Scottish historian George Buchanan, a contemporary, wrote that when the unfortunate princess went to Inverness in 1562: "as soon as they heard of their sovereign's danger, a great number of the most eminent Scots poured in around her, especially the Frasers and Munros, who were esteemed the most 'valiant of the clans inhabiting those countries in the north.' " These two clans took Inverness Castle for the Queen. The Queen later hanged the governor, a Gordon who had refused her admission. In the 16th century a battle took place between Clan Fraser (with help from Clan MacRae) and Clan Logan at Kessock, where Gilligorm, the Chief of Clan Logan, was killed. '''17th century and civil war''' In 1645, at the Battle of Auldearn, in Nairnshire, the Clan opposed the Royalist leader, James Graham, 1st Marquess of Montrose, and fought under a Fraser of Struy (from a small village at the mouth of Glen Strathfarrar). The battle left eighty-seven Fraser widows. In 1649, Clan Fraser of Lovat, under Colonel Hugh Fraser, assaulted Inverness Castle for a second time, this time during a royalist rising, along with John Munro of Lemlair, Thomas Urquhart and Thomas Mackenzie of Pluscardine. They were opposed to the authority of the current parliament, assaulted the town and took the castle in what is now known as the Siege of Inverness (1649). They then expelled the garrison and raised the fortifications. However, on the approach of the parliamentary forces led by General Leslie, the clans retreated back into Ross-shire. Over the next year, several skirmishes took place between these parties. During the Siege of Inverness (1650) the Covenanter Frasers of Lovat under Sir James Fraser of Brea successfully defended Inverness Castle against the royalists. In 1650, at the Battle of Dunbar, Clan Fraser fought against the forces of Oliver Cromwell, however the Covenanters were defeated. In 1651, Clan Fraser joined the army of Charles II at Stirling. They fought at the Battle of Worcester where the King's army was defeated by Oliver Cromwell's New Model Army. In 1689, the Glorious Revolution deposed the Roman Catholic King, James VII, as monarch of England, replacing the King with his Protestant daughter, Mary, and her husband and cousin, William of Orange. Swiftly following in March, a Convention of the Estates was convened in Edinburgh, which supported William & Mary as joint monarchs of Scotland. However, to much of Scotland, particularly in the Highlands, James was still considered the rightful, legitimate King. On 16 April 1689, John Graham of Claverhouse, Viscount of Dundee, later known as Bonnie Dundee, raised the royal standard of the recently-deposed King James VII on the hilltop of Dundee Law. Many of the Highland clans rallied swiftly to his side. The chief of Clan Fraser, Thomas Fraser, tried to keep the members of his clan from joining the uprising, to no avail: The Clan marched without him, and fought at the Battle of Killiecrankie. In 1690, Thomas gave in and joined them. '''18th century and Jacobite risings''' Jacobite rising of 1715 During the Jacobite rising of 1715, Simon Fraser "the Fox", 11th Lord Lovat, Chief at the time, supported the British Government and surrounded the Jacobite garrison in Inverness. Clan MacDonald of Keppoch attempted to relieve the garrison, but when their path was blocked by the Frasers, Keppoch retreated. The Inverness garrison surrendered to Fraser on the same day the Battle of Sheriffmuir was fought, and another Jacobite force was defeated at the Battle of Preston. In 1719, the British General, Joseph Wightman, passed through Fraser country enroute to the Battle of Glen Shiel and gathered with him Fraser of Lovat's men as he went. Jacobite rising of 1745 In 1725, the British Field Marshall, George Wade, gave instructions that had come to him from George I of Great Britain to re-establish the Independent Highland Companies of soldiers to support the British Government. Chief Simon Fraser, 11th Lord Lovat was appointed Captain of one of these Independent Highland Companies. However Wade complained to George II of Great Britain that the Independent Highland Companies had been infiltrated by Jacobitism and demanded that the king take action. Wade put up Lord Lovat's captaincy as the first to go. In 1740, George II demanded action and Wade stepped in and stripped Lovat of his company of Frasers, putting them under command elsewhere. Wade also advised the government to remove Lord Lovat from his office as High Sheriff of Inverss-shire. As a result, Simon Fraser, 11th Lord Lovat later gave his support to the Jacobite leader, Charles Edward Stuart (Bonnie Prince Charlie), and when asked why he had engaged with the Prince after receiving so many favours from the government, he replied that "he did it more in revenge to the ministry for having taken away his Independent Company than anything else". Frasers were on the front lines of the Jacobite army at the Battle of Falkirk, and the Battle of Culloden in 1746. At Culloden, Charles Fraser was mortally wounded and found by General Hawley on the field, who ordered one of his aides, a young James Wolfe, to finish him off with a pistol. Wolfe refused, so Hawley got a common soldier to do it. David Fraser of Glen Urquhart, who was deaf and mute, had, it was said, charged and killed seven redcoats, but was captured and died in prison. John Fraser, also called 'MacIver' was shot in the knee, taken prisoner, and put before a firing squad, but was then rescued by a British officer, Lord Boyd, who was sick of the slaughter. Another John Fraser, who was Provost of Inverness, tried to get fair treatment for the prisoners. After the battle, the same year, Castle Dounie was burnt to the ground, while Simon Fraser "the Fox", 11th Lord Lovat, was on the run. He was captured, tried for treason, and executed in London on 9 April 1747, and his estates and titles were forfeited to the Crown. The 11th Lord Lovat's son, Simon Fraser, escaped punishment and was pardoned. He later raised a Fraser regiment for the British army which fought in Canada in the 1750s, including Quebec. Castle Dounie was replaced by a small square building in which the Royal Commissioner resided until 1774, when some of the forfeited Lovat estates were granted by an Act of Parliament to his son, Simon Fraser (1726–1782), by then a major general, in recognition of his military service to the Crown and the payment of some £20,000. Later, two modest wings were added. On the death of General Fraser's younger half-brother, Colonel Archibald Campbell Fraser of Lovat (1736–1815), without legitimate surviving male issue, the Lovat estates were transferred, by entail, to Thomas Alexander Fraser of Strichen (1802–1875), a distant cousin who was descended from Thomas Fraser of Knockie & Strichen (1548–1612), second son of Alexander Fraser, 4th Lord Lovat (1527–1557). Knockie was sold about 1727 to Hugh Fraser of Balnain (1702–1735). '''Frasers in the New World''' Seven Years' War Under the chief, Simon (who had led the Frasers in The '45 as the Master of Lovat) a regiment of Frasers, the 78th Fraser Highlanders, numbering 1,400, were raised and fought the French and Indians in the colonies and Canada from 1757 to 1759. Interestingly, the 78th fought under General Wolfe, who had previously fought at the Battle of Culloden against Simon and perhaps some of the 78th. It was one of the 78th, possibly Simon, possibly one of his men, whose familiarity with the French language saved the first wave of British troops at the Battle of the Plains of Abraham, which led to the capture of Quebec. American rebellion In the fight against American independence, Simon, who was by this time a General, raised 2,300 men, the 71st Fraser Highlanders. He recruited two battalions at Inverness, Stirling and Glasgow. Most of the men were not Frasers, for the number of Frasers had been substantially reduced after the battle of Culloden and the end of the clan system. Fighting on the Continental side was Persifor Frazer, said to be a relative of Simon whose ancestors had left the Highlands before the Jacobite Rising. Diaspora Many Frasers settled in Canada and the United States after the war against the French in Quebec. Many others later emigrated to those countries, and to Australia and New Zealand (which have both had a Fraser prime minister). Frasers in the US have continued their proud military tradition, fighting on both sides of the American Civil War. Frasers from both sides of the Atlantic fought in the Great War, and the Second World War. ''Text is available under the Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike License; additional terms may apply.

Information below this line should be summarized and incorporated into this Team page. Detailed information should be moved to additional Clan pages. ---- '''Clan Glen''' '''Names:''' ''Glen, Glenn, de le Glen'' There is very little original source material for the early family of Glen. There is a publication [https://archive.org/details/memorialsofscglen00roge Memorials of the Scottish family of Glen] available but which is not detailed and also inaccurate in places. There is another published genealogical research paper [https://journals.psu.edu/pmhb/article/viewFile/27085/26841 Genealogical Notes Regarding the Family of Glen, of Glenn] by Thomas Allen Glenn which is more informative and is used, in the main, as the major source work for the early families. According to Thomas Allen Glen there were two distinct, unrelated, originating families of Glen. One, noticed on many of the web sites purporting to provide a "Clan history" is that of The Glen in the parish of Traquair in Peeblesshire. The other is derived from a family that assumed the surname from the estates of Glen in Renfrewshire. '''Peebleshire''' This family, believed to be of Celtic origin, once owned an extensive glen in what became the Parish of [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Traquair Traquair] and from which they gained their surname. Prior to 1292, "The Glen" was held to a Duncan de le Glen. Duncan died in 1292 as it is his widow, Sara, that paid homage to Edward I., stating she had been a widow for four years. Duncan is believed to be the first to use the location as a name. A son, Colban, also appear on Charter record. Noticed in the discussion regarding the Parish, in Origines parochiales Scotiae,Origines parochiales Scotiae : the antiquities ecclesiastical and territorial of the parishes of Scotland; published by the Bannantyne Club; [https://archive.org/stream/originesparochia01bann#page/218/mode/2up Volume 1, Part 1, page 219] is the suggestion that, other than the lands belonging to the church of Traquair, a church founded to Saint Kentigern c. 1120, the Parish was royal demense. The lands of "The Glen" are saidOrigines parochiales Scotiae : the antiquities ecclesiastical and territorial of the parishes of Scotland; published by the Bannantyne Club; [https://archive.org/stream/originesparochia01bann#page/222/mode/2up Volume 1, Part 1, page 222] to be high on the Quair (Quair Water) and comprised of the Forest (of Quair) the Merse and Clydesdale. The lands of the family are lost prior to 1493 when they appear in the hands of Gilbert Cokburn and had been divided into three, East, West and Nether Glen. Rev. Charles Rogers in his work on the family of Glen suggests that Duncan and Sarah Glen had no children and the lands thus returned to the Crown but this is an error as they had a son Colban, who married an Annabella, who appears to have been a Douglas. It seems though that they had no surviving heirs. '''Renfrewshire''' This family is noticed as the Glens of Lennox in the work by [https://archive.org/details/memorialsofscglen00roge Rev. Rogers]. The second family of the Scottish families to assume the name were located in Renfrewshire. They are said to have taken their name from a Glen near Lochwinnoc, out of which flows the Black Cart Water. This lordship, comprising Bar, Brigend, Lynthills, Gaytflat, and other lands, was granted by David I. to Walter the Steward. The Stewards (Stewarts), holding of the King in capite, by subinfeodation, sub-tenanted these lands among their retainers. This is observed by a grant of Peter Auchingowan in Lochwinnoc to the convent of Dalmunlin, on the Waters of Air, about the beginning of the 13th century.[https://journals.psu.edu/pmhb/article/viewFile/27085/26841 Genealogical Notes Regarding the Family of Glen, of Glenn] by Thomas Allen Glenn The first Glen noticed on record was a [[Glen-244|Richard de le Glen]] c. 1290.Stevenson, Documents, i, 367-68, no. 301; cited from People of medieval Scotland - [http://db.poms.ac.uk/record/person/17491/ Richard de le Glen] This family of Glen are descended from, according to a Charter of 1292, a family of Ness/Nase. Glenn then further provides that "the family of de Ness was from Ness, or Ness Strange, near Shrewsbury, and descended from the powerful Norman house of Déstrange, the first of whom is said to have been Guy Déstrange, younger son to the Duke of Brettaign. The de Ness accompanied Walter Fitz Alan from Shropshire to Scotland, and Henry de Ness held under the Steward in the lordship of Glen, 1180".Glenn; [https://journals.psu.edu/pmhb/article/viewFile/27085/26841 Genealogical Notes Regarding the Family of Glen, of Glenn] '''Glen of that Ilk''' In his work, Scottish Arms,Scottish arms : being a collection of armorial bearings, A.D. 1370-1678, reproduced in facsimile from contemporary manuscripts, with heraldic and genealogical notes; Robert Riddle Stodart; [https://archive.org/stream/scottisharmsbein02stoduoft#page/148/mode/2up Volume 2, page 148/149] Stodart confuses both families. He provides that a Robert Glen married Margaret Bruce, natural daughter of Robert I., this from the family of Renfrewshire. In 1296 John del Glen and Sarah of Glen swore fealty to Edward I.. These are two different families. John Glen had a charter of Balmuto, Fife, from Robert I., which later passed by marriage to the Boswells. This the Renfrewshire family. Stodart then is confused as he mentions that John Glen, with his wife, Margaret Bruce, had a charter of Nether Pittedie from David II.. In 1304 there is a David de Glen noticed at the defence of Stirling castle under Sir William Oliphant. He was taken at the siege and then imprisoned. He is noticed in a variety of prisons between 1304 and November 1313. Albeit that Rev. Rogers suggests he was with Bruce again prior to 1308 and had three children this does not appear consistent with the Charter record. In 1328 a legacy left by the Queen is paid to Colban del Glen, who appears later as holding the multures of Estchel, probably Eshiels, near Peebles, and within a few miles of the lands of Glen, from which the family probably took their name. This Colban was of the family of Peebleshire. In 1332 Roger del Glen renders the accounts of the provosts of Peebles at Scone. This likely from the family of Peebleshire although Thomas Allen Glenn, in his work, suggests he was likely from the Renfrewshire family. In 1545, Alexander Glen was in parliament as sergeant, and James, George, and Andrew Glen represented the burgh of Linlithgow frequently from 1625 till 1664. From this family probably descended the Glens of Longcroft, Linlithgow, whose heiress was Elizabeth, Countess of Dalhousie. By this date, both lands lost or sold, these individuals may be from either family. '''Legends - Relationship with Robert Bruce''' There must have been a very strong relationship between [[Glen-243|John de le Glen]] and Robert Bruce. History records, although Thomas Allen Glenn misunderstood, that Margaret Bruce, an illegitimate daughter to Bruce by an unknown mother, married [[Glen-154|Robert]], the eldest son to John. There are numerous Charters to the couple from her half-brother King David II., discussed on [[Glen-154|his Profile page]]. Legend also suggests, and recorded in Glenn's work, that Robert de Glen was one of those who accompanied the heart of Bruce to the Holy Land, and the Linlithgow line used two crests, one a martlet; the other an arm, the hand grasping a heart, in commemoration of that event.There is, apparently, an iron seal in possession of a descendant. The arms of Linlithgow branch are identical with those of Bar. Further, the Glens of Bar (a holding of this line of the family) possessed the sword of Bruce, which a descendant carried to Ireland, in 1606, the inscription on the blade apparently leaving no doubt as to its original ownership. '''Armorials''' Given two distinct families there are likely a number of variants between the crests and shields. On record: : Sir John, knight. Lord of that Ilk, dated 1415. Seal: A chevron between three martlets. Shield within octagonal ornament.Scottish armorial seals; William Rae Macdonald, [https://archive.org/stream/scottisharmorial00macdiala#page/130/mode/2up page 131] : Lord Glen; First and fourth, a lion rampant; second and third, three pelicans (?).Scottish arms : being a collection of armorial bearings, A.D. 1370-1678, reproduced in facsimile from contemporary manuscripts, with heraldic and genealogical notes; Robert Riddle Stodart; [https://archive.org/stream/scottisharmsbein02stoduoft#page/116/mode/2up Volume 2, page 116] The lion rampant appears as argent, a lion rampant Sable, on the arms of Wemyss. : Sir James Balfour Paul, Volume 8, Page 518, under Earl of Wemyss, c. 1672, notes: Quarterly: 1st and 4th, or, a lion rampant gules, armed and langued azure, for Macduff; 2nd and 3rd, argent, a lion rampant sable, armed and langued azure, for Glen. The first notice may actually be recognition of the mark of illegitimacy born on Scottish Arms; the bordure gobony. The marriage between Robert de le Glen and Margaret Bruce, illegitimate daughter to Robert Bruce (King Robert I.).

Coming into Scotland with Malcolm III to help him regain his throne, the Gordons were rewarded with lands in the Roxburgh District near Kelso in the Borders. In 1320, Adam Gordon was rewarded for his support of Robert the Bruce and the Scottish War of Independence under English rule with Strathbogie and its lands in Aberdeenshire. Later, Strathbogie was renamed Huntly to match the Gordon title. This brought the main branch of the family into the Highlands and began the Gordon rise to power. At its zenith, the Gordon Clan Chief could have destabilized the Scottish throne if he had so chosen. His power in the northeast of Scotland was unrivaled, and he commanded the resources of all branches of the family at one time, including Clan Sutherland as a cadet branch of Clan Gordon. The Clan Chief became known as the "Cock of the North." Since the late 15th Century, there have been branches of the family in Spain, Belgium, Russia, the Americas, and later Australia and New Zealand. Because we had our origins in Normandy and held lands in the Lowlands and Highlands, and had ties to the royal house of Scotland, Clan Gordon has long called itself the House of Gordon, and the two names are now used interchangeably. '''Adapted from an article on ElectricScotland.com''' The Gordons are an ancient and distinguished family, originally from Normandy, where their ancestors are said to have had large possessions. It is probable that the first Gordons in Scotland came over with William the Conqueror in 1066. According to Chalmers, the founder of this great family came from England in the reign of David I (1124-1153), and obtained the lands of Gordon (Gordun, or Gordyn, from the Gaelic Gordin, "on the hill"). He left two sons, Richard and Adam, who, although he was the younger son, had a portion of the territory of Gordon, with the lands of Fanys on the southern side of it. The elder son, Richard de Gordon, granted, between 1150 and 1160 land to the monks of Kelso. After his death in 1200, his son, Sir Thomas de Gordon. confirmed the donations, and his son and successor, also named Thomas, made additional grants to the same monks, as well as to the religious of Coldstream. He died in 1285, without male issue. His only daughter, Alicia, married her cousin Adam de Gordon, the son of Adam, younger brother of Richard, and the two branches of the family became united. His grandson, Sir Adam de Gordon, Lord of Gordon, one of the most eminent men of his time, was the progenitor of most of the Gordons in Scotland. As a reward for his faithful service, Bruce granted him and his heirs the noble lordship of Strathbolgie (now Strathbogie), in Aberdeenshire, then in the Crown, by the forfeiture of David de Strathbogie, Earl of Atholl. Sir Adam resided there, and gave these lands and lordship the name of Huntly, from a village of that name in the western extremity of Gordon parish, in the Merse, the site of which is now said to be marked only by a solitary tree. From their northern domain, the family afterwards acquire the titles of Lord, Earl, and Marquis of Huntly, and the latter is now their chief title. Sir Adam was slain, fighting bravely in the vanguard of the Scottish army at the battle of Halidonhill, July 12, 1333. By Annabella, his wife, supposed to have been a daughter of David de Strathbolgie, he had four sons and a daughter. The eldest son, Sir Alexander, succeeded him. The second son, William, was ancestor of the Viscounts of Kenmure. Sir John Gordon, his great-grandson, got a new charter from King Robert the Second of the lands of Strathbogie, dated 13th June 1376. He was slain at the battle of Otterbourne in 1388. His son, Sir Adam, lord of Gordon, fell at the battle of Homildon, 14th September 1402. By his wife, Elizabeth, daughter of Sir William Keith, great marshal of Scotland, he had an only child, Elizabeth Gordon, who succeeded to the whole family estates and married Alexander Seton, second son of Sir William Seton of Seton, ancestor of the Earls of Winton. Alexander was styled lord of Gordon and Huntly, and left two sons, the younger of whom became ancestor of the Setons of Meldrum. Alexander, the elder, was created Earl of Huntly in 1449, with limitation to his male heirs, by Elizabeth Crichton, his third wife, they being required to bear the name and arms of Gordon. George, the sixth earl, was created Marquis of Huntly by King James, in 1599. George, the fourth marquis, was made Duke of Gordon in 1684. George, fifth duke, died without issue on 28 May 1836. At his death the title of Duke of Gordon became extinct, as well as tha of Earl of Norwich in th British peerage, and the Marquisate of Huntly devolved on George Earl of Aboyne, descended from Charles, fourth son of George, second Marquis of Huntly, while the Duke of Richmond and Lennox, son of his eldest sister, succeeded to Gordon castle, Banffshire, and other estates in Aberdeenshire and Inverness-shire. The clan Gordon was, at one point, the most powerful and numerous in the north. Although the chiefs were not originally Celtic in origin, they gave their name to the clan, the distinctive badge of which was the rock ivy. The clan feuds and battles were frequent, especially with the Mackintoshes, the Camerons, the Murrays, and the Forbes. The Duke of Gordon, who was the chief of the clan, was usually styled "The Cock of the North". His most ancient title was the "Gudeman of the Bog", from the Bog-of-Gight, a morass in the parish of Bellie, Banffshire, in the centre of which the former stronghold of this family was placed, and which forms the site of Gordon castle, considered the most magnificent edifice in the north of Scotland. The Marquis of Huntly is now the chief of the clan Gordon. Of the name Gordon, there are many ancient families belonging to Aberdeenshire, Banffshire and the north of Scotland.

''Clan Graham''
==Septs== ==Clan History== '''Origins''' There are several rtheories on the origins of Clan Graham. One tradition holds the Grahams are descendants of one Græme who commanded the armies of Fergus II in 450 A.D. and destroyed the Roman Antonine Wall driving the Roman legions out of Scotland. The area is called Graham's Dyke to this day. Another theory is that the chiefs of Clan Graham were of Anglo-Norman origin. The Manor of Gregham is recorded in William the Conqueror's Domesday Book. When David I claimed the throne of Scotland, [[Graham-1274| Sir William de Graham]] was one of the knights who accompanied him. Sir William de Graham who accompanied [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/David_I_of_Scotland King David I], witnessed the charters of Holyrood Abbey and Holyrood Chaple. David I awarded Sir William the baronies of Dalkeith and Lothian. Sir William is the ancestor of all of the later Grahams, including, most notably, the Grahams of Montrose and of Mentieth. A third theory claims that the Grahams are descended from the ancient Anglo-Saxon Kings of England by way of King Alfred the Great. A fourth, and more recent, theory proposes that William de Graham was the son of Arnulf de Hesdin, a Flemish aristocrat with many lines of descent from Charlemagne. All these theories are discussed in much greater detail [https://clangrahamsociety.org/theories-on-the-origins-of-the-grahams/ here]. '''Early History''' The first lands that the chiefs of Clan Graham appear to have held were around Dalkeith in Midlothian. [[Graham-3792|Sir Nicholas de Graham ]] attended the Parliament of 1290 where the [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Treaty_of_Birgham Treaty of Birgham] was signed. The Clan Graham fought at the [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Battle_of_Dunbar_(1296) Battle of Dunbar in 1296] where [[Graham-624|Sir Patrick (Graham) of Dundaff and Kincardine)]] was the only man of all the Scots not to retreat and instead fought to the death. [[Graham-3655|[[Graham-3655|Sir John de Graham)]]]], was a friend and follower of [[Wallace-182|William Wallace (1272-1305)]]. Sir John de Graham is regarded as hero for rescuing Wallace at Queensbury. Sir John de Graham was regarded as Wallace's right hand man and Wallace was at his side when Graham was killed in 1298 at the Battle of Falkirk. John de Graham's name is still perpetuated in the district of Grahamston. The grave of Sir John de Graham in Falkirk churchyard is still to be seen, with table stones of three successive periods above it. One great two-handed sword of Sir John the Graham is preserved at Buchanan Castle by the Duke of Montrose. Another was long in possession of the Grahams of Orchil and is now treasured by the Free Mason Lodge at Auchterarder. The Clan Graham also fought against the English at the Battle of Durham in 1346, in support of King David II of Scots. The Grahams acquired the lands of Mugdock north of Glasgow, where they built a stout castle around 1370. In John Stewart's book, The Grahams, he states that "Most Scottish Clans would be proud to have one great hero. The Grahams have three." He refers to Sir John de Graham, James Graham, 1st Marquess of Montrose and John Graham, 1st Viscount of Dundee. Stewart also wrote, It is remarkable that the early Grahams were one and all exceedingly capable men. In an age when the reputation of many great public figures, alas, that of most of the Scottish nobility, were sullied by deeds of violence, and often deeds of blackest treachery, it is refreshing to find that the Grahams stand out as loyal and true to the causes they espoused. Their story is not one of rapid rise to power through royal favor, or even at the expense of their peers, but rather a gradual steady rise based on their undoubted ability and worthiness which seems to have endured from one generation to another. '''15th and 16th centuries Mugdock Castle was the clan's stronghold The Clan Graham fought at the [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Battle_of_Sauchieburn Battle of Sauchieburn] led by the [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/William_Graham,_1st_Earl_of_Montrose 3rd Lord Graham].The battle was fought on 11 June 1488, at the side of Sauchie Burn, a brook about two miles south of Stirling, Scotland. In 1504 Lord Graham, on account of his gallantry was made 1st Earl of Montrose. He would go on to lead part of the Scottish Vanguard against the English at the [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Battle_of_Flodden Battle of Flodden Field] in 1513, part of the Anglo-Scottish Wars where he was slain. The Clan Graham were among the clans who fought against the English at the [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Battle_of_Pinkie Battle of Pinkie Cleugh] in 1547, where the eldest son of the second Earl, [[Graham-916|Robert "Master of Graham" Graham,]] was slain. '''17th Century''' One of the most notable chiefs of the Clan Graham was [[Graham-1989|James Graham, 1st Marquess of Montrose]], a poet, but above all, the most distinguished royalist soldier of his time. He played a massive part in the [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Scotland_in_the_Wars_of_the_Three_Kingdoms#The_end_of_the_civil_war_in_Scotland Scottish Civil War, part of the Wars of the Three kinkgoms,] and the Grahams rallied to their chief. James Graham, 1st Marquess of Montrose had had successive victories at the [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Battle_of_Tippermuir Battle of Tippermuir] - with the support of Alaster M'Coll Keitach (known as Alasdair MacColla McDonald) and his Irish soldiers, the [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Battle_of_Aberdeen_(1644) Battle of Aberdeen], the [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Battle_of_Inverlochy_(1645) Battle of Inverlochy (1645)], [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Battle_of_Auldearn the Battle of Auldearn] , [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Battle_of_Alford the Battle of Alford] and the [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Battle_of_Kilsyth Battle of Kilsyth]. After several years of continuous victories James Graham, 1st Marquess of Montrose was finally defeated at the [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Battle_of_Philiphaugh Battle of Philiphaugh] 13 September 1645 by the Government army of Sir David Leslie, Lord Newark, restoring the power of the Committee of Estates. In 1646 [[Graham-1989|James Graham , 1st Marquess of Montrose]] laid siege to the Castle Chanonry of Ross which was held by the Clan Mackenzie. Graham took it from the Mackenzies after a siege of four days. In 1650 James Graham captured Dunbeath Castle castle of the Clan Sinclair, who would later support him at Carbisdale. James Graham, 1st Marquess of Montrose was defeated at the [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Battle_of_Carbisdale Battle of Carbisdale] by the Munros, Rosses, Sutherlands and Colonel Alexander Strachan. Graham was subsequently captured and executed in Edinburgh in 1650. Another notable Graham was [[Graham-10163|John (Graham) First Viscount of Dundee]], also known as John Graham of Claverhouse or "Bonnie Dundee". By means of purchase and inheritance the Graham lands had become, by the late seventeenth century, among the richest in Scotland. John Graham, 1st Viscount of Dundee led a small Government Troop of Cavalry which was surprised and defeated at the [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Battle_of_Drumclog Battle of Drumclog] in 1679 by an overwhelming force of rebel Covenanters (estimates suggest Graham was outnumbered by about 4-1). However he was victorious at the [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Battle_of_Bothwell_Bridge Battle of Bothwell Bridge] where he put down a rebellion by the Covenantors.

It is also a village situated thirty-five miles downstream – hence, the two Craigellachies. Creag Eileachaidh (Kra GELʹ a key) means “rock of alarm”. In former times, huge bond fires were ignited on high hills in Strathspey to designate a gathering place for the men of the clan, or to proclaim a great celebration, such as the birth of the chief’s first-born son. The clan’s motto or rallying cry was, and is today: “Stand fast, Craigellachie!” (The burning hill represents "Craig Elachie", the rallying point for the Grants. When signal fires were lit upon the summit of Craig Elachie, or "The Rock of Alarm", members of the clan would gather there in order to organize for an attack or defense.) == Current Leadership == Since 1915, when the 11th Earl of Seafield, Capt. Sir James Ogilvie-Grant, was killed in World War I, while serving in Belgium with the Cameron Highlanders, the Chief has been the Lord Strathspey. Today, '''The Right Honourable 6th Baron Strathspey, Sir James Patrick Trevor Grant of Grant, Baronet of Nova Scotia, is 33rd Hereditary Chief of the Clan Grant.'''

Feudal barons named Grant were land holders and office bearers in the Scottish highlands in the 13th century. These ambitious early Grants were undoubtedly the ancestors of our present-day chief and the forebears of the extended family later known as the Clan Grant. Our Chief, Sir James Patrick Trevor Grant of Grant, Baronet, 6th Lord Strathspey, and other hereditary chieftains of cadet families, descend directly from Sir Duncan le Grant of Freuchie, Knight, who held lands in Strathspey in the mid-15th century. The Lordship of Glencarnie (from the Gaelic Glenchearnich, glen of heroes) and the Barony of Freuchie (from fraoch, place of the heather) were among the earliest holdings of Sir Duncan Grant in Strathspey. These lands generally encompass the present-day towns and environs of Aviemore, Carrbridge, Dulnain Bridge, Boat of Garten and Grantown-on-Spey. The first known reference to the Clan Grant was in a notarized agreement between James Grant of Freuchie and Finlay Farquharson and his tenants in Strathdee. The document referred to “lye Clan de Grantis” and was dated October 8, 1527, but the concept of clanship existed long before that time. Strathspey, the valley of the River Spey, was the “country of the Grants”. During the halcyon days of the clan system, it was the stated goal of succeeding chiefs to consolidate and hold all the lands in Strathspey “between the two Craigellachies”. And they very nearly succeeded! ''' Family History''' Although the principal families of the clan were entrenched in Strathspey as early as the 15th century – and in Stratherrick (on the southeast side of Loch Ness) before that – important cadet families were later established in other parts of Scotland. There were Grants in Glenmoriston, at Corrimony and Shewglie in Glenurquhart, at Monymusk in Aberdeenshire, and Kilgraston in Perthshire. With the passage of time, these families became virtually autonomous and conducted their affairs independently of their more powerful distant cousins in Strathspey. In the late 17th century, Ludovick Grant of Freuchie (d. 1716) was the de facto Chief of the Clan Grant. In 1694, Glencharnie, Freuchie and all his other lands – which by that time were considerable! – were consolidated by the Crown into the Regality of Grant. From that time forth, Ludovick Grant, 8th Laird of Freuchie, and subsequent heritors lineally descended from him, were known as the Chiefs of Grant, and their principal residence of Ballachastell (town of the castle) was called Castle Grant. A century later, Sir James Grant of Grant, Baronet (1738-1811), was perhaps the ablest chief of his long line. He was well-educated and well traveled; he was a dedicated public servant and ardent improver of his vast estates; and he was keenly aware of his over-riding responsibilities to his family, tenants and clansmen. Sir James Grant was the founder of Grantown, which was a creative attempt to provide employment for his clansmen during a time when many highland lairds were clearing tenants from their lands. Sir James was a Member of Parliament, Cashier of Excise for Scotland, Lord Lieutenant and Sheriff of Inverness-shire. Patriotic to a fault, he raised and served as Colonel of two regiments during the conflict with France during the last decade of the 18th century. During the 19th century, the Earls of Seafield were Chiefs of the Clan Grant. In 1858, the 7th Earl, Sir John Charles Ogilvie-Grant (1815-1881), was created 1st Baron Strathspey in the Peerage of the United Kingdom, and in 1879, he was made a Knight of the Thistle. The Earls of Seafield were avid planters of trees; they assumed leadership roles in the affairs of the Church of Scotland; and generally served as conscientious guardians of their vast estates.

The name derives possibly from the town of Gray in Haute-Saone, France. The first of the name in Scotland is Hugo de Gray in 1248, who was witness in a charter by Walter de Lundin. John Gray, mayor of Berwick, witnessed a gift of land to the Hospital of Soltre between 1250-66. Henry Grey of Fife rendered homage in 1296, and Huwe Grey, juror on an inquest, also rendered homage. John Gray was Provost of Crail in 1327, William dictus Gray witnessed a charter by Muriel, widow of Sir William de Roe (1333-63). John Gray of Broxmouth had a charter of the lands of Craigy in le Mernys in 1357, and Ibbote Gray leased the land of Molyne in 1376. Many Scottish families, including the Grays, succumbed to the power of Edward I of England and pledged allegiance by signing the Ragman Rolls. They, however, changed their allegiance and went on to follow Robert the Bruce in the quest for Scottish independence. Sir Andrew Gray’s services to the Scottish crown saw him being rewarded with land grants, which included Longforgan in Tayside. The Lord Lyon, in 1950, barred those with double-barrell names from the chiefship of clans. Angus Diarmid Ian Campbell-Gray, the 22nd Lord Gray had been chief of Clan Gray at the time. ------------------ '''See Also:'''

The birth date shown is actually his christening date. He was the second son of Malcolm MacGregor, he took the name "Grierson" in accordance with charter granted before 1400, by George de Dunbar, Earl of March, conveying lands of Netherholm (2 km SW of Amisfield Tower), and Dalgarnock (just west of Dunscore) to him and his heirs male to be called by the surname Grierson. In 1400, the Earl also granted charter to the lands of Airde, Tyrcrome, and Overholm in the Barony of Tybris for his many good deeds to the Earl. On 6 December 1408, Gilbert got from his cousin Henry Saint Clair, Earl of Orkney, charter to Lands of Lag lying in the Brokenbarony, among the monk lands of the Monastery of Montrose, giving yearly a pair of gilt spurs at the Castle of Dumfries as blench farm.

The name was popular amongst clergy in the Middle Ages. It has been conjectured that the Grierson family come from the same source as Clan Gregor, although this theory has been refuted by modern historians and there is no evidence to support it. == Dispute == :Some say that Grierson, though dna tests proves that Grierson has no link to the CLAN Gregor or the CLAN MacGregor. :Recently I have seen that someone said, "Clan Grierson originated before Clan MacGregor" But if you check out wikipedia.com (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Clan_Gregor) "Highland Scottish clan that claims an origin in the early 800s." A tad bit earlier than what is claimed below. "In about 1408 the Griersons acquired the lands of Lag, which became the principal seat of the clan chiefs. Gilbert Grierson is described in a charter dating from 1420 as armour bearer to the Earl of Douglas. Gilbert married Janet, daughter of Sir Simon Glendinning, whose mother was Mary Douglas, daughter of the fourth Earl of Douglas and Princess Margaret. These royal connections secured the early fortunes of the Griersons. In 1460 Vedast Grierson built a strong tower at Lag." 1]] Here is a photo of the Lag Tower, Dumfriess Scotland that our ancestor Sir Vedast GRIERSON is known to have built--- (The ruins of Lag Tower, historic seat of the chiefs of Clan Grierson. Photo by David Purchase) [[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_castles_in_Dumfries_and_Galloway#/media/File:Lag_Tower_ruins,_Dunscore.jpg]] Sir Vedast Grierson, 3rd Lord of Lag. Born: 1415 in Lag, Dumfriesshire, Scotland. Died: 1487 at Lag, Dumfriesshire, Scotland. Father: Gilbert Grierson. Mother: Isabella DeKirkpatrick. Spouse: Margaret Glendonwyn. Married: 1438 in Scotland. Vedast Grierson was the 3rd Lord of Lag. The eldest son, he built Lag Tower in 1460. He also got sasine of Bordlands (1465), charter of Glencairn (1467), sasine of Windiehill (1468), and charter of Rocail (1473) from Duke of Albany, and charter of Drumjoan (1475) from the King. The inventory of Rockhall writs includes the following: "Imprimis, a Precept by Isobell Kirkpatrick, Lady Rockhall, for infefting (((Infeft = Land-holding in Scotland was feudal, i.e. there was an overlord or superior and his vassal. Each time land changed hands, permission had to be obtained from the superior in the form of a 'precept' (letter). The letter was then shown to the 'bailie' (official) of the particular lands who then gave title to the new owner. This took place on the actual property, where the new owner was given a handful of earth and stone or if in a burgh, took hold of the handle of the door and thereby became 'infeft' or 'seised' in the property. An instrument of Sasine was then recorded in the Register of the county in which the land lay.))) Vedast Grierson, her son, in the lands of Rockhall, dated 4th May 1468." The Tower is just east of the town of Dunscore, the churchyard of which served as the ancient burying ground for the Griersons, including the infamous Laird of Lag. The churchyard where the "Laird of Lag" is buried is not the graveyard at Dunscore. He is buried at the "Old Dunscore Graveyard," several miles southeast of Dunscore, Dumfries and Galloway, Scotland. The name Vedast cognate with the Old French "Vaast", as in Bishop Saint Vaast of Arras - one of the two Bishops who instructed Clovis in the Christian faith. by: Delbert Bauer (f-a-g memorial) Children: Roger Grierson (1439 - 1488) 2]] April 1863 American Civil War, Col.

Detailed Clan information should be moved to additional Clan pages. ----- '''History/Origins of the Clan''' The traditional origin of Clan Gunn is that the progenitor of the clan was one Gunni who came to Caithness at the end of the 12th Century when his wife, Ragnhild, inherited the estates from her brother, Harald Maddadsson who was the Earl of Orkney. His wife descended from St Ragnvald, founder of St. Magnus Cathedral in Kirkwall, Orkney. Gunni, whose name meant war, was allegedly descended from Viking adventurers and his grandfather was Sweyn, who was killed in a raid on Dublin in 1171. Smibert however states that the Gunns were of Gaelic origin. '''Recorded origins''' The first 'chief' of Clan Gunn to appear in historical records definitively was George Gunn, who was the crouner or coroner of Caithness during the 15th Century. The later Celtic patronymic of the Gunn chiefs may have been MacSheumais Chataich, however 'George' Gunn was widely known as 'Am Braisdeach Mor' which means the great brooch-wearer. This was due to the insignia worn by him as coroner. George is said to have held court at his Clyth Castle in such splendor that it would rival any Highland chief. '''15th Century''' The Battle of Harpsdale was fought in 1426 where Clan Gunn fought an inconclusive battle with Clan Mackay. The Gunn's traditional enemies were Clan Keith who, from their Ackergill Castle, challenged the Gunn chiefs for both political needs and land. In one such feud, it was claimed that Dugald Keith coveted Helen, daughter of Gunn of Braemor. The girl resisted Keith's advances but, on learning she was to be married to another man, he surrounded her father's house, slew many of the inhabitants and carried the girl to Ackergill Castle where she threw herself from the tower, rather than submit to her kidnapper. The Gunns retaliated and repeatedly raided the Keith's territory; however, they suffered defeat in 1438 or 1464 at the Battle of Tannach. Both sides, having suffered considerable losses, agreed to meet and settle their differences in what is known as the Battle of Champions, where each side was to bring twelve horses. The Keiths arrived with two warriors on each horse and slaughtered the outnumbered Gunns. This was in turn avenged by the chief's remaining son, James, who killed Keith of Ackergill and his son at Drummoy. '''16th Century''' In 1517 the Clan Gunn supported Clan Sutherland, defeating Clan Mackay at the Battle of Torran Dubh. Alistair Gunn, son of John Robson Gunn, had become a man of much note and power in the North. He married the daughter of John Gordon, 11th Earl of Sutherland, and "he felt entitled to hold his head high amongst the best in Scotland". His pride, or perhaps his loyalty to the Earl of Sutherland, led to his undoing when in 1562, he led Gordon's retinue and encountered James Stewart, 1st Earl of Moray, and his followers on the High Street of Aberdeen. The Earl of Moray was the bastard half-brother of Mary, Queen of Scots, as well as the son-in-law of William Keith, 4th Earl Marischal, Chief of Clan Keith. It was the custom to yield thoroughfares to the personage of greater rank, and in refusing to yield the middle of the street to Stewart, Alistair publicly insulted the Earl. Stewart had him pursued to Delvines, near Nairn. There he was captured and taken to Inverness, and following a mock trial, he was executed. In the late 16th Century, the Gunns were involved in a number of feuds against the Earl of Sutherland and Earl of Caithness. In 1586 at the Battle of Allt Camhna the Clan Gunn was victorious but they were defeated shortly afterwards by a massive force at the Battle of Leckmelm. '''17th Century and Civil War''' During the 17th Century, Clan Gunn strengthened its links with Clan Mackay when Gunn of Killearnan married Mary Mackay, sister of Lord Reay, Chief of Clan Mackay. The next Gunn chief married Lord Reay's daughter. Another branch of the clan, the Gunns of Bramore, who descend from Robert, a younger son of Am Braisdeach Mor, were generally known as the Robson Gunns. Sir William Gunn, brother of the Robson chief, despite being Catholic, served in the army of the Protestant king of Sweden, and rose to command a battalion. He later fought for Charles I and received a knighthood in 1639. He returned to the Continent where he served the Holy Roman Empire and married a German baroness. He became an imperial general and was created Baron of the Holy Roman Empire in 1649. '''18th Century and Jacobite Uprisings''' The Gunns as a Clan did not support the Stuarts and fought for the British government during the Jacobite rising of 1745. Alexander Gunn, Chief of Clan Gunn, was a Captain of an Independent Highland Company that fought for the British Government. Some Gunns did fight independently for the Bonnie Prince, however. '''Recognition of the Chief of the Clan''' On September 25, 2015, the Lord Lyon King of Arms for Scotland issued an interlocutor recognizing Iain Alexander Gunn of Banniskirk as Chief of Clan Gunn. He is now Iain Alexander Gunn of Gunn, Chief of Clan Gunn. At a Family Convention, held in Orkney on July 18, 2015, a petition to the Lyon Court requesting this recognition was approved and sent to the Lyon for action. For the first time in 230 years, the Clan has a recognized Chief. Iain previously served as Commander of Clan Gunn for over forty-three years. '''Clan Castles''' Gunn's Castle - also known as Clyth Castle, was situated on a rock above the sea, eight miles south-west of Wick, Caithness. It was once a splendid and strong castle but virtually nothing remains. The fortress was held by the Gunns during their feud with the Clan Keith. Dirlot Castle - near Watten, Caithness, was originally held by the Cheynes but passed to the Gunns in the 15th Century. It later went to Clan Sutherland and then Clan Mackay. Halberry Castle - near Wick, Caithness, was held by the Gunns, but there are now only some remains by the sea. Latheron Castle - near Dunbeath, Caithness, was held by the Gunns but passed to Clan Sinclair in the 17th Century and there are only slight remains left of the castle. Latheron House dates from the 18th Century. Kinbrace - castle once held by the Gunns, although the location is not certain. ----- '''See Also:''' [[Space:The_Clan_Gunn|'''Clan Gunn''']] Free-space page for further information.

(Note that coats of arms should not be used by clan members as ''they are incorporeal heritable property, governed, subject to certain specialities, by the general law applicable to such property. The possession of armorial bearings is therefore unquestionably a question of property. The misappropriation of arms is a real injury, actionable under the common law of Scotland.'' [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Law_of_heraldic_arms Law of heraldic arms]) == Who are the Guthries?== Is there really a "Clan" Guthrie whose members are all related? The simple answer would be: No! There are several different branches of Guthries who seem to descend from different male ancestors. ''It is a common misconception that every person who bears a clan's name is a lineal descendant of the chiefs. Many clansmen although not related to the chief took the chief's surname as their own to either show solidarity, or to obtain basic protection or for much needed sustenance. Most of the followers of the clan were tenants, who supplied labour to the clan leaders. Contrary to popular belief, the ordinary clansmen rarely had any blood tie of kinship with the clan chiefs, but they took the chief's surname as their own when surnames came into common use in the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries. Thus by the eighteenth century the myth had arisen that the whole clan was descended from one ancestor, with the Scottish Gaelic of "clan" meaning "children" or "offspring".'' [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Scottish_clan Scottish Clans] ==Clan Branches==
There were several offshoots from the main line of the Guthrie family.

''Clan Hamilton''
'''Clan Chief:''' Alexander Douglas-Hamilton, 16th Duke of Hamilton, 13th Duke of Brandon. Styled Marquess of Douglas and Clydesdale. He is Duke of Hamilton, Marquess of Douglas, Marquess of Clydesdale, Earl of Angus, Earl of Lanark, Earl of Arran and Cambridge, Lord Abernethy and Jedburgh Forest, Lord Machanshyre and Polmont and Lord Aven and Innerdale in the Peerage of Scotland, and Duke of Brandon and Baron Dutton, in the Peerage of Great Britain. Hereditary Keeper of the Palace of Holyroodhouse. Clan Chief of Clan Hamilton. Succeeded his father in 2010. '''Crest'''- On top of the helmet the crest sits on a wreath, or a crest coronet (the term ducal cornet is often used instead of crest coronet), or a chapeau. When the crest issues from a ducal (crest) coronet or sits on a cap of maintenance, also called a chapeau, it signifies that it was granted as a privilege of office or rank of nobility. '''Crest Badge''' - The Clan Hamilton crest badge consists of the crest of the Duke of Hamilton's coat of arms encircled with a strap and buckle, the strap bearing the family motto "Through". The strap and buckle is the sign of a clansman and shows a family affiliation by wearing the head of the family's crest within the strap. Although the crest badge is purchased by, and owned by the clansman, the heraldic crest and motto on it belong to the Duke. They are the Duke's heraldic property which clansmen are only permitted to wear. '''Motto''' -Through - '''Gaelic Motto''' - Tromih '''Tartan''' The Hamilton Tartan consists of three broad blue stripes crossing three broad blue stripes formed by single thin white stripes. This same pattern, or sett, is carried on a field of red (Dress) or green (Hunting). As the wool in older times was dyed with natural vegetable dyes, these colors were much more subdued and muted when compared with material colored with modern dyes. This has led to the terms "Ancient' or "Muted" when naming tartans of this type. The darker and much brighter colored tartans are likewise termed "Modern". '''Plant Badge''' - Bay Leaves '''Gaelic Name''' - Hamultun '''District''' - Renfrewshire '''Region''' - Lowlands '''Pipe music''' - '''Septs''' '''Names associated with the clan''' HAMILTON HAMMELTOUNE HAMMYLTOUNE HAMYLTOUNE HAMMYLTOUN HAMYLTONE HAMULTHONE CADZOW '''CLAN NAME''' '''HAMILTON''' {| border="1" class="wikitable" !

''The Hamiltons''
'''Origins of the Clan The Hamilton chiefs descend from [[Fitz Gilbert-10|Walter Fitz Gilbert]] of Hambledon who appears in a charter to the Monastery of Paisley in about 1249. His lands appear to have originally been in Renfrewshire, however his support for Robert the Bruce rewarded him with lands in Lanarkshire and the Lothians These lands included Cadzow, which later became the town of Hamilton, South Lanarkshire. Chief among the legends still clinging to this important family is that which gives a descent from the House of Beaumont, a branch of which is stated to have held the manor of Hamilton, Leicestershire; and it is argued that the three cinquefoils of the Hamilton shield bear some resemblance to the single cinquefoils of the Beaumonts. In face of this it has been recently shown that the single cinquefoil was also borne by the Umfravilles of Northumberland, who appear to have owned a place called Hamilton in that county. It may be pointed out that Simon de Montfort, the great earl of Leicester, in whose veins flowed the blood of the Beaumonts, obtained about 1245 the wardship of Gilbert de Umfraville, second earl of Angus, and it is conceivable that this name Gilbert may somehow be responsible for the legend of the Beaumont descent, seeing that the first authentic ancestor of the Hamiltons is one Walter FitzGilbert. He first appears in 1294–1295 as one of the witnesses to a charter by James, the high steward of Scotland, to the monks of Paisley; and in 1296 his name appears in the Homage Roll as Walter FitzGilbert of "Hameldone." Who this Gilbert of "Hameldone" may have been is uncertain. '''Wars of Scottish Independence''' As already mentioned Walter Fitz Gilbert was rewarded with lands for his support of king Robert the Bruce. Walter's son, [[Fitz Walter-25|David Fitz Walter]], fought at the Battle of Neville's Cross for David II of Scotland in 1346. David was captured and was not released until a substantial ransom was paid. 15th and 16th centuries In 1474 [[Hamilton-5948|James Hamilton]],1st Lord Hamilton married Princess Mary, daughter of James III of Scotland. Their son was [[Hamilton-1670|James Hamilton]], 1st Earl of Arran. The family extended Brodick Castle on the Isle of Arran. The second Earl of Arran, James Hamilton, Duke of Châtellerault was heir to the throne of both James IV of Scotland and Mary, Queen of Scots. He was made regent of Scotland while the queen was still a child and proposed to marry his son to her, in order to secure his claim to the throne. However the marriage did not take place and Mary married an heir to the French throne instead. James Hamilton was created Duke of Châtellerault because he had figured prominently in the marriage negotiations with France. In 1561 he was sent into exile for five years because he openly opposed Mary's marriage to Henry Stuart, Lord Darnley, having had his hopes rekindled when Mary's marriage ended upon the death of the Dauphin of France. James Hamilton of Bothwellhaugh was a Scottish supporter of Mary, Queen of Scots, who assassinated James Stewart, 1st Earl of Moray, Regent of Scotland, in January 1570. The 4th Earl of Arran, James Hamilton, 2nd Marquess of Hamilton became Lord Chancellor of Scotland and was made keeper of both of the strategic royal castles; Edinburgh Castle and Stirling Castle. He had been advanced to the rank of Marquess in 1599. His brother was Claud Hamilton, 1st Lord Paisley who had been created Lord Paisley in 1587 and later Lord Abercorn. This branch of the family also prospered and Abercorn was advanced to an earldom and later a dukedom in 1868. '''17th century and civil war''' '''Lennoxlove House''' The third Marquess, James Hamilton, 1st Duke of Hamilton was a staunch supporter of Charles I. Charles rewarded him with the dukedom in 1643 which made Hamilton the premier peer in Scotland. Hamilton led a royalist army into England but was defeated at the Battle of Preston (1648) by the Parliamentarians of Oliver Cromwell. Hamilton was later executed in 1649 at Whitehall shortly before the king met the same fate. Hamilton's brother, William Hamilton, 2nd Duke of Hamilton was also a brave soldier but was killed at the Battle of Worcester in 1651. The title passed to Anne Hamilton, 3rd Duchess of Hamilton, daughter of the first Duke. She was a woman of great intellect but she inherited estates heavily burdened by debt. Matters were made worse with her kinsman Hamilton, Earl of Abercorn who challenged her right to succeeded to the title. Anne married William Douglas, 1st Earl of Selkirk (later Duke of Hamilton). Their son was James Hamilton, 4th Duke of Hamilton who was killed in a duel in London in 1712.

In modern times, Clan Henderson traces lineage through the Chief of the Name and Arms of Henderson, [[Henderson-7266|Alistair of Fordell]]. However, in times more distant Henderson’s can claim descent from a King of the Picts and down through five unique bloodlines evolving from the regions of Caithness, Fordell, Glencoe, Shetlands/Liddesdale and Ulster. Henderson’s from the Glencoe region have strong ties to the MacDonald Clan and were renowned as pipers and bodyguards to the Glencoe MacDonald Chief (MacIan). Henderson’s from the Caithness region have ties to the Clan Gunn. ==Clan Branches== ===Other Names Associated with the Clan=== D'Handresson, Eanrig, Eanruig, Enderson, Endherson, Endirsone, Henders, Henderson, Hendersone , Hendersonne, Hendersoun, Hendersoune, Hendery, Hendirsone, Hendirsoune, Hendrie, Hendric, Hendrick, Hendrisoune, Hendry, Henersoun, Hennersoune, Hennryson, Henresoun, Henreysoun, Henriesoun, Henrison, Henrisone, Henrisoun, Henrisoune, Henry, Henryesson, Henryson, Henrysoun, Kendrick, Kenrick, MacCanrig, MacCanrik, MacEanruig, MacEnrick, MacHendric, MacHendrie, MacHendry, MacHenrie, MacHenrik, MacHenry, MacKanrig, MacKendric, MacKendrich, MacKendrick, MacKendrie, MacKendrig, MacKendry, MacKenrick, Makanry, Makhenry, McHenry, McKendree, McKendrick, McKendry ==Allied Clans== ===Rival Clans=== ==Clan Research and Free Space Pages== ===Source Material=== ===Image Credits and Acknowledgements=== Information below this line should be summarized and included on this team page.

Of course, it was originally an earthen moat with extensive ditches and rampart defenses. A castle here was first mentioned in 1173, and may have had stone buildings by 1298. A wooden tower was added to the moat and ditch system in the 1290s. One of the interesting pieces of history about '''Lochmaben''' is that it is considered the birthplace of Robert the Bruce. This early wooden castle is attributed to the Bruce family, and Robert Bruce's father had it for a time while he had been a supporter of Edward I. At the time, the elder Bruce was making a claim for the Scottish throne, once Balliol had abdicated. '''Lochmaben''' got it's first stonework in the 14th century, which included an enclosure curtain, supports for a bridge, and the inner moat, which have survived. The castle is surrounded by a moat, and probably had access to Castle Loch, which is nearby. The castle was siezed by English in 1299, and attacked in 1301. It was surrendered to the Scots after Bannockburn in 1314, then attacked again in 1396 and recovered by the English. Once a large and well-fortifed castle, '''Lochmaben''' was often visited by royalty. Mary, Queen of Scots and her first husband Darnley attended a banquet here in 1565. Still, in 1586 the castle was besieged by James VI and taken. The castle was abandoned, and became ruined. It's current state is deteriorating, and I'm sure that in another few decades, the stone remains will be buried in a soft blanket of green grass. It is in dangerous condition, and a sign warns of 'falling masonry' and not to climb on the rubble walls. The tower is surrounded by a wire fence, although it's easily crossed (there is a gate, but it was nearly under water) to examine the tower and remains of the moat. (See below for more history of '''Lochmaben Castle''') '''Clan History''' Henderson, Henry and Hendry are names so closely tied and so widespread it is not possible to determine one single line as being the first. Through its Gaelic translation into English, the name MacKendrick is revealed as another variation of Henderson. The Hendersons of Caithness and surrounding areas claim their descent from Henry, son of George Gunn, the chief of Clan Gunn and ‘Crowner’ of Scotland in the 1400s, who was deceived and slain by the Keiths. Meanwhile, there were Hendersons in Dumfries-shire, the opposite end of Scotland. In 1494, James Henderson became Lord Advocate and founded the line which flourished in Fordell, Fife. Born to this family in 1583 was Alexander Henderson, who drafted the National Covenant of 1638 with Johnston of Wariston. With this and his work towards the Solemn League and Covenant of 1643, and the Confession of Faith, he became the Presbyterian Church of Scotland’s most influential representative of those political years. Claiming descent from ‘Big Henry’, son of King Neachtain, are the principle family of Hendersons, Clan Eanruig of Glencoe. King Neachtain reigned in the 700s and is said to have built Abernethy, the Pictish stronghold. When the Hendersons came to Glencoe, the heiress of their last chief had given a son to Angus Og of Islay. Their grandson was Iain Abrach and his patronymic, MacLain, became the designation of the MacDonald of Glencoe chiefs. In the years with the MacDonalds, it became tradition that the Hendersons, known for their size and strength, formed the personal bodyguard of the chief. Standing six feet and seven inches tall, the powerful Big Henderson of the Chanters was MacLain's piper and protector, and fell with the chief in the cold February night of 1692 in the Massacre of Glencoe, the treacherous outrage ordered by King William of Orange. "Son of Henry" is a name which is found in various forms all over Europe. In Scotland, it was originally "Henryson" but Henderson was easier to say and has become the norm. The surname Hendry is of course from the same roots. While the name can be found all across the country, there were a number of main branches. In Dumfries, William Henrison became chamberlain of Lochmaben Castle (a possible birthplace of Robert the Bruce) around 1374. He later received a pension from the king of England when he was driven from his lands in the area. A descendant, James Henderson, became Lord Advocate in 1494 and established himself with a fortified mansion in the lands of Fordell near Dalgety in Fife in 1511. Later, one of Mary Queen of Scot's ladies-in-waiting married George Henderson of Fordell. The Lowland Henderson chiefs were designated "Henderson of Fordell". A prominent Henderson of Fordell was Alexander, who became a minister in Fife. He was violently opposed to the new prayer book foisted on the Church of Scotland by King Charles I in 1637. His denouncement of the book resulted in him drafting (along with Johnston of Warriston) the National Covenant which was signed by thousands in Greyfriar's Churchyard in Edinburgh. Henderson later became Moderator of the Church of Scotland and is buried in Greyfriar's. Although Fordell Castle is no longer in Henderson hands, it was restored this century by the late Sir Nicholas Fairbairn, a colourful Solicitor General for Scotland. The southern Hendersons spread eastwards from Dumfries to Liddesdale, although they never became one of the great Border families.In 1594, when the Scottish Parliament listed the Border families who were accused of being outlaws and "Border Rievers", Henderson was not included. In the 15th century, Henry Gunn in Caithness in the far north of Scotland, fell out with other members of the family. He is thought to have been the founder of a family named Henderson in that area. In the Glencoe area, a sept of the MacDonalds Anglicised their Gaelic name "MacEanruig" and formed another distinct enclave of Hendersons. They claimed to have been descended from "Big Henry, son of King Nechtan" a Pictish monarch of around 706AD. A more verifiable descent is from a Dugal MacEanruig who lived around 1340. There was a John filius Henry in Aberdeen in the early part of the 14th century who became a burgess (freeman of the city) and in 1370, James Henrisson, a merchant in Aberdeen, is recorded complaining about the English wrecking one of his ships. Thomas Henderson from Dundee was originally a lawyer but became an astronomer in the 19th century and was appointed as the first Astronomer Royal in Scotland. The Henderson clan motto is "Sola virtus nobilitat" which means "Virtue alone ennobles". Hendrie, Hendry, MacHendrie and MacHendry surnames are regarded as septs (sub-branch) of the MacNaughton clan. Henderson itself is a member of the Standing Council of Scottish Chiefs. Henderson was the 27th most frequent surname at the General Register Office in 1995. '''Alliances''' Though a small clan, the Hendersons rose to prominence in Caithness, Glencoe, the Shetland Islands and Fordell in Fife. In Caithness, Clan Henderson associated with Clan Gunn. In Glencoe, Clan Henderson forged a close alliance with the powerful Clan Donald. A separate family grouping arose in Liddesdale and Ewesdale, being one of the smaller families of [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Border_Reivers Border Reivers]. The Hendersons, known for their size and strength, became the personal body guards of the chief of the Clan MacDonald of Glencoe. In 1692, [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/William_III_of_England King William III], suspecting the loyalty of Clan Donald, secretly set the Clan Campbell upon the MacDonalds and Hendersons in the [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Massacre_of_Glencoe Massacre of Glencoe]. Standing six feet and seven inches tall, the powerful “Big Henderson” of the Chanters was the MacDonald chief’s piper and protector, and fell with the chief in the cold February night of 1692. After the Massacre, many Henderson families emigrated to Ulster, North America and mid Wales. '''Highland Clearances''' During the Highland Clearances from 1746 to 1822, many more Henderson families left Scotland for Ireland, England, North America, Australia, New Zealand, and other lands. '''Hendersons in the 18th and 19th Centuries''' Hendersons in the British colonies of North America played important roles in the drive for American independence from Britain. [[Henry-30|Patrick Henry of Virginia]] urged armed revolution with his cry “I know not what course others may take, but as for me, give me liberty or give me death!” Ulster-born physician [[McHenry-360|James McHenry]] served as [[Washington-11|George Washington]]’s Secretary of War. (The Star-Spangled Banner, the national anthem of the United States of America, depicts the British naval bombardment of Fort McHenry near Baltimore in 1814.) Hendersons loyal to the British Crown played important roles in the British settlement of Canada, Australia, and New Zealand. '''Hendersons in the Modern World''' In 1934, British statesman [[Henderson-9701|Arthur Henderson]] was awarded the Nobel Peace Prize for his work for world disarmament. Epidemiologist [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Donald_Henderson Dr. Donald Ainslie “D.A.” Henderson] led the World Health Organization’s successful effort to eradicate smallpox throughout the world. ''Henderson Tartan'' The Clan Henderson tartan is predominately green with large blue and black bands, and small yellow and white stripes. The tartan is available in five variations: Ancient, Modern, Dress, Muted and Weathered. Although these variations incorporate very different colors, they are all considered the same tartan. '''Ancient''' {{Image|file=Scottish_Clan_Images-1.gif |align=l |size=s |label=Ancient }} Ancient tartans represent plaids that were made with natural dyes. They incorporate the primary color pattern of the clan. However, they are lighter in shade, especially the blue, symbolizing that unlike modern dyes, time will fade the coloring on the tartan. The ancient tartan is representative of a tartan that has been in the family a long time. {{Clear}} '''Modern''' {{Image|file=Scottish_Clan_Images-2.gif |align=l |size=s |label=Modern }} Modern tartans represent plaids that are made with chemical dyes, allowing for deeper and darker colors. It also recognizes the fact that modern dyes will not fade in the manner of the ancient tartans. This tartan is representative of a family newly acquiring the tartan material or it can be considered a display of wealth and prosperity within the family. {{Clear}} '''Dress''' {{Image|file=Scottish_Clan_Images-3.gif |align=l |size=s |label=Dress }} Dress tartans replace much of the primary colors with white. In the Clan Henderson tartan, the dress tartan has most of the green replaced with white. Dress tartans stem from the Victorian-era, where custom mandated that women of virtue wear white. Accordingly, the dress tartan is considered a woman’s tartan, and in the Clan Henderson, is not appropriate attire for members of the bodyguard. {{Clear}} '''Muted''' {{Image|file=Scottish_Clan_Images-5.gif |align=l |size=s |label=Muted }} Muted tartans provide a color variation from the Ancient and Modern versions. In some clans, the muted version has shades between the Ancient and Modern. The Clan Henderson has a muted tartan with a completely different shade of green, and a slight variation in the shade of the blue. The muted tartan is supposedly representative of a tartan that has faded from wear and the elements. The muted tartan is also considered by some to represent the tartans that would have been buried and hidden when they were banned from wear by the English (1746-1814). {{Clear}}

This was the seat of a line of the family until the eighteenth century when that branch died out, having left only a female heir. However, it is as the Earls of Bothwell that the Hepburn family are perhaps best remembered. This branch of the family originated in Lothian when a Hepburn was granted land having saved the Earl of March from a horse that had lost control. This family first became the Lords of Hailes before being granted the Earldom of Bothwell. There were also Hepburns of Waughton, thought by some to have branched off from the Hailes line, thought by others to predate it. Another line was the Hepburns of Beanston, and yet another was the Hepburns of Athelstaneford. All of these families were prominent in various ways at various junctures of Scottish history, but all were primarily located around the East Lothian area. :Crest: A horse's head couped Argent, bridled Gules :Motto: Keep Tryst :Slogan: :Region: :District: :Plant badge: :Pipe music: :Gaelic name: '''Septs:''' '''Names associated with the clan:''' '''See Also:''' http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hepburn_%28surname%29 * [http://www.electricscotland.com/webclans/families/hepburns.htm Electric Scotland 'Hepburns'] ---- Add your ancestor here, see [[Using_Categories|Using Categories]].

''Clan Home''
'''Clan Home''' The names Home and Hume are of the same enormously powerful Borders family. Descendents of the Saxon Princes of Northumberland through Cospatick, Earl of Dunbar. Sir Alexander Home of Dunglass was captured at the Battle of Homildon in 1402. He later followed the Earl of Douglas to France, where he was killed in battle in 1424. He left three sons, from whom most of the principal branches of the family were to descend. His eldest grandson was created a Lord of Parliment, taking the the title 'Lord Home' in 1473. He joined the rebellion against James II of Scotland which resulted in the death of the king. His son was the second Lord Home who, during the minority of James IV of Scotland, became joint administrator of Berwickshire and the Lothians. He also became Great Chamberlain of Scotland in 1488. The land owned by the Clan Home/Hume is in the far eastern part of the borders area of Scotland. It includes the towns of Dunbar in the north as well as Wedderburn and Duns centrally and Coldstream in the south. On the land there is the remains of Castles, one of them being the Home Castle, which is situated in the west of the Clan Home land, it is a large square fort with high simple walls. It sits on the top of a small hill and dominates the landscape for miles in all directions. Wedderburn Castle, near Duns, Berwickshire, in the Scottish Borders, is an 18th-century country house. It is the historic family seat of the Home of Wedderburn family, cadets of the Home family (today Earls of Home). The change of the central vowel of the family name, "Home" to "Hume", is amusingly thought to have occurred during the disastrous Battle of Flodden in 1513. Alexander, 3rd Lord Home, led his troops into the fray with his battle cry "A Home! A Home!", apparently many of his force thought that he was calling the retreat, and they did indeed go home. :Motto: A Home :Slogan: A Home, A Home, A Home :Region: Borders :District: Berwickshire :Plant badge: Broom Allied Families: Eaton, Greenlaw, Lansdale Names associated with the clan: Blackadder, Broomhouse ,Coldingknows, Manderston, Polwarth, Simprin, Wedderburn Castles Hume Castle was the original seat of the chief of Clan Home, the Earl of Home.

They were experts in hunting and fieldcraft with generations of experience in the forests of their land of origin, Normandy, northern France. William Hunter was invited to Scotland by David I, who was himself brought up in the Norman Court. He must have had considerable skills to have been so honoured, he was responsible for providing the Scottish Court with meat and game, a osition that the Hunters held throughout the Middle Ages and beyond. In papers relating to the King's Inquisition in 1116, we find mention of Williemo Venator (William the Hunter, 1st Laird), who was appointed as Royal Huntsman while his wife had the honour of serving Queen Matilda s lady-in-waiting. William put his expertise to good use in the wild forests and fens, then rich with wildlife, which surrounded the site of the timber fortress later to become Hunter-s Toun. As recognition of his family's skills the title of Royal Huntsman became a hereditary appointment.

A traditional ancestor of the Hunters was with Rollo, a Viking, at the sack of Paris in 896.[4] He was appointed as a huntsman to one of Rollo's descendants.[4] The Hunters later followed Matilda, queen of William the Conqueror, to England and as a result their name is not included amongst those who accompanied William.[4] It is likely that the Hunters came to Scotland with David I of Scotland upon his invitation and were given lands named Hunter's Toune.[4] In 1296 Aylmer le Hunter of the county of Ayr appears on the Ragman Rolls submitting to Edward I of England.[4] A charter signed by Robert II of Scotland on 2 May 1374 has survived that confirmed a grant of land to William Hunter for his faithful service rendered and to be rendered to us in return for a silver penny payable to the Sovereign at Hunterston on the Feast of Pentecost.[4] To this day the Laird of Hunterston, chief of Clan Hunter keeps silver pennies, minted in the reigns of Robert II and George V in case of a royal visit on the day appointed for payment of his rent.[4] The William Hunter who received this charter is reckoned to have been the tenth Hunter of Hunterston.[4] In earlier records both William Hunter and Norman Hunter appear using the Latin form of the name, Venator The Hunters were hereditary keepers of the royal forests of Arran and Little Cumbrae by the fifteenth century.[4] The family appear to have held this office from an early date and also claim a long descent from people who held similar offices in England and Normandy before they came to Scotland.[4] During the sixteenth century the Hunters rendered chiefly military service.[4] John Hunter, the fourteenth Laird was killed with his king at the Battle of Flodden in 1513.[4] His son was Robert who was trublit with sikness and infirmity and was excused from military service in 1542 by James V of Scotland, providing that he sent his eldest son in his place.[4] His son was Mungo who was killed at the Battle of Pinkie Cleugh in 1547 In the 15th century the Hunter's were the hereditary Keepers of the Royal Forests at Arran and Little Cumbrae. In the 16th century Royal demands were more of a military type. John Hunter 14th Laird died at the Battle of Flodden in England on September 1513 while serving his King. His son Robert, "was trublit with sikness and infirmity" and in 1542 was excused army service to the king provided he sent his eldest son. His son Mungo succeeded as Laird in 1546 but was killed the next year whilst serving King James the 5th at the Battle of Pinkie. Robert, son of the 20th Laird graduated from Glasgow University in 1643 and became a minister at West Kilbride. He was the founder of the cadet branch known as Hunter's of Kirkland, when he purchased land in that area. Also in the seventeenth century from a younger son of the house descended the Hunter's of Long Calderwood. This branch of the family produced Dr. John Hunter the anatomist and his brother William Hunter who founded the Hunterian Museum and Art Gallery, which is the oldest public museum in Scotland opened in 1807. :Crest: :Motto: Cursum perficio (Latin) - I have completed the course :Slogan: :Region: Lowlands :District: Ayrshire :Clan Seat: Hunterston Castle, West Kilbride, Ayrshire, Scotland :Clan Lands: Ayrshire, Arran, Bute, Cumbraes. :Plant badge: Sea Pink – Ameria Maritima :Pipe music: :Gaelic name: '''Septs:''' '''Names associated with the clan:''' '''See Also:''' *[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Clan_Hunter Wikipedia Clan Hunter ] *Lairds List CHARLES HUNTER·FRIDAY, OCTOBER 23, 2020· Lairds of Hunterston - Clan Hunter Administration 2020 © The ancestors of the early lairds of Hunterston were Norsemen. They came to Normandy in longships with Rollo (c.860-930 AD) and conquered the region, laying siege to Paris in 911 and settling in Northern France with Rollo taking the title Duke of Normandy. [1] 1 Guilielmus Venator (William The Hunter) was born in Venables in northern France and is named as one of the witnesses, with Hugh de Morville, at an inquisition in 1116 by David, Prince of the Cumbrians (later King David I of Scotland) regarding lands pertaining to the Church of Glasgow. William is known to have come to Scotland from Normandy after the conquest of England in 1066. Many of the ancient Scottish lowland families have similar Norman origins. 2 Norman Venator (Norman I) is referred to in a Royal Charter of King Alexander III of Scotland dated 1271 confirming that he had previously been granted lands in the Barony of Arnele on the coast of Ayreshire by King Malcolm IV of Scotland (1153-65). Ardneil farm neighbours Hunterston land and would have been in the possession of the lairds at one time. 3 Venator (The Hunter) was named in charters of King Alexander II of Scotland who reigned 1214-49. 4 John Deo Venator the 4th laird, was a witness to a deed in the Glasgow Church records of 1233. 5 Ardneil Hunter the 5th laird, maintains the link with the land at Hunterston through his name. Ardneil bay extends from West Kilbride toward Portencross on the southern side of the Hunterston peninsula. He would have been engaged at the Battle of Largs in 1263 where the Vikings under Haakon Haakonarson, the King of Norway were finally repulsed from the Scottish mainland. [2] 6 Norman Hunter. Details of the 6th laird are uncertain and so we have named him Norman II. His date of birth would have been about 1240. 7 We have no information on Norman’s son either and so have named him Norman III. He was the 7th laird. His date of birth would have been approximately 1260. 8 Aylmere le Huntar (Aylmer I) the 8th laird, was one of the Scottish Magnates who signed the famous Ragman Rolls in 1296, as an act of homage in submission to King Edward 1st of England. [3] 9 Born in 1320, the Christian name of Aylmer’s son is unknown and so we refer to the 9th laird as Aylmer II. 10 William Huntar of Ardneil the 10th laird (William I) was granted a Royal Charter by King Robert II of Scotland (1371-1390) signed in Stirling on the 2nd May 1374. This Charter is preserved at Hunterston with the original Royal seal intact. It remains the oldest document in the possession of Clan Hunter consolidating their unbroken link with the lands at Hunterston. In Scotland, all lands were forfeit to the Crown in times of war. Afterward, being restored in exchange for services to the reigning Monarch. William was born in 1350. 11 Born in 1390, the 11th laird is referred to as William Huntar II as we have no information excepting that he had two children: William and John. 12 William III the 12th laird of Hunterston is on record as paying 11 years Blench Duty and Double Succession Money accounted for in the Exchequer Roll for 1447. On William’s death in 1454 his younger brother John succeeded as Hereditary Forester as his nephew, William’s son Archibald was a minor at the time. 13 The 13th laird, Archibald Huntar of Ardneil, married Margaret Kerr on 14th June 1462. An entry in the Exchequer Rolls of Scotland 1488 translated from Latin reads: Account of Robert Chamberlaine of Bute … and he charges himself with 30 shillings being rent of the land of Almolach and for the office of Forester of Arran and with 3 chalders of oats and 2 silver pennies being payment for Blenche Ferme due to the King by John Hunter. The lairds are thus established as Hereditary Keepers of the Royal Forests on the islands of Cumbrae and Arran (Holy Isle). Venison was a significant source of meat at this time and these islands were ideal for confining deer. Blenche Ferme was a nominal sum paid to the Crown in recognition of a Royal appointment. 14 Archibald’s son John became the 14th laird of Ardneil and Huntarstoune and married Margaret, daughter of 2nd Lord Cathcart on 13th June 1505. Producing the Charter granted to his ancestor before the Court of Justices in Ayr, he was exonerated from all claims proving his lands were held …in Blenche of the Crown on payment of one silver penny. John was killed at the Battle of Flodden on 9th September 1513 in the service of the Scottish Crown. 15 Robert Huntar (I) of Huntarstoune (15th laird) was a minor when his father fell and inherited on 6th May 1515. He consolidated family land holdings and in 1542 was granted a licence by King James V permitting his absence from wars …he being weak and tender of complexion and troubled with sickness and infirmity. He died in 1546. 16 Kentigern (Mungo) Huntar of Huntarstoune, the 16th laird …was present with our Sovereign Lady’s army at Dumbarton on the 11th of July 1546, at the siege of the Castle. Mungo died …at the Faith and Peace of Queen Mary under her Standard at the Battle of Pinkie 10th September 1547. He was named after Kentigern, a 6th century Apostle of the Scottish Kingdom of Strathclyde, also known at Mungo, he founded and is the Patron Saint of the City of Glasgow. [4] 17 The 17th laird, Robert Huntar (II) was a minor at his father’s death but he too fought for Mary, Queen of Scots at the Battle of Langside (1568) where he was seriously wounded. Surviving, he became a supporter of the Reformed Religion (Protestantism). He died in 1581. Robert’s brother James is considered the founder of several genealogical branches of the extended Hunter family (Abbotshill, Barjarg, Thurston, Doonholm, Auchterarder and the Hunter-Blair baronets). 18 Robert Huntar (III) the 18th laird was an infant at his father’s death. Born in 1564, he married Margaret Peibles of Broomlands but they had no children. The lairdship was passed through his sister Jean to her daughter (also called Jean) and Jean’s husband Patrick whom Robert made his heir of entail in 1611. There was no requirement for a name change as Patrick was the son of William Hunter of Beneberrie Yairds, Ayrshire. Diverting the inheritance through the female line explains the remarkable way the Hunters of Hunterston have maintained their unbroken history in Scotland. A marriage contract dated 1704 states that: In the absence of a Male Heir, a Female may succeed under condition that she marries “A Gentleman who will assume the name of Hunter”. 19 As Lady Hunterston, Jean and Patrick (I) became co-heirs of Hunterston. Patrick is listed as the 19th laird but the inheritance came through his wife and her mother, both named Jean. They had five children together and Patrick died in 1665 aged 74. 20 Robert (IV) the 20th laird, entered Glasgow University in July 1627. One of his grandchildren also named Robert, was Governor of Virginia and New York 1709-1719.[5] The 20th laird also served in the Ayrshire Yeomanry and died in 1679. [6] Robert’s brother Francis is the ancestor of the Hunters of Long Calderwood. 21 As the 21st laird Patrick (II) had his title to the land ratified by King William II on 27th June 1698. Marrying Marion Cunningham of Langmuir, they had 7 children. Patrick’s brothers Robert and James founded the branches of Hunters of Kirkland and of Croyland Abbey respectively. 22 Patrick (III) was reputed to have been a gambler and alienated much of the land holding before he was forced to make a disposition to his eldest son (Patrick IV) transferring the remaining lands. Patrick married Marion Crawford and they had ten children. He died in 1738. 23 Patrick’s younger son Robert (V) became the 23rd laird in 1732, succeeding his elder brother (Patrick IV) who died young and unmarried. Robert married Janet Atchison daughter of Mathew Atchison a Glasgow merchant and they had five children. Thomas and Patrick, their two sons both died young and two of their daughters died unmarried. Their third daughter Eleonora (I) succeeded her father on his death in 1796. 24 Eleanora (I) Helen Hunter became the 24th laird in 1796. Helen married her cousin Robert Caldwell in the same year. Robert was a mariner and shipowner and he assumed the name of Hunter. Together they made significant improvements at Hunterston. They constructed the first Hunterston House, a Georgian building later remodelled, and greatly improved the farming by draining marshland surrounding Hunterston Castle. They had seven children. Helen was born in 1764 and died in 1851. 25 Born in 1799, Robert (VI) trained as a lawyer and Justice of the Peace and was Deputy Lieutenant of Ayrshire. As the 25th laird, he obtained a Royal Charter for the lands at Hunterston from King George IV in 1829. Robert married Christian, daughter of William Crawford of Cartsburn near Greenock and they had two daughters, Jane and Eleanora (II). Robert was the last laird to be born in the Castle. 26 Jane married Gould Read Weston a career officer in the British Indian Army, in 1863. She obtained a Royal licence from Queen Victoria to assume the name and Arms of Hunter-Weston in 1880. They had two sons, Aylmer (III) and Reginald. As the 26th laird, Jane competently managed the estate herself. She was a Lady Justice of the Order of St John of Jerusalem and her husband a Knight of Justice, OStJ. Gould undertook the first genealogical research on the Hunters of Hunterston. 27 Lieutenant General Sir Aylmer Hunter-Weston, KCB, DSO, JP, DL, Member of Parliament to North Ayrshire for over 25 years.[7] The General as the 27th laird is known in the family, married Grace Strang Steel of Philiphaugh, Selkirk in 1905. However, they had no children. Aylmer (III) died in 1940 and Grace in 1954. Although it might be expected for the Hunterston inheritance go to Aylmer’s younger brother, Reginald, it passed to the descendants of his Aunt, Eleanora (II). Reginald migrated to New Zealand and his Hunter-Weston descendants are actively involved with Clan Hunter today. 28 On the death of Grace Hunter-Weston, Aylmer’s widow, in February 1954, Eleanora (III) Agnes Cochran-Patrick (Aunt Nora) matriculated Arms as the 28th laird. As Aylmer and Grace had no children, Hunterston passed across to the descendants of Jane Hunter’s sister (Eleanora II). During her tenure, Aunt Nora fought but lost a compulsory purchase order by the government to build a nuclear power station at Hunterston. 29 Neil Hunter the 29th laird (1927-1994) continued the conflict against the incursion of further industrialisation onto the remaining original Clan lands. Known for his sailing prowess, Neil represented the United Kingdom in two Olympic Games and was awarded a silver medal in Melbourne (1956). Neil was a distinguished archer and a member of the Queen’s Royal Bodyguard for Scotland [8]. He married Sonia Furlong of Gloucestershire in England and they had seven children, one daughter and six sons. 30 Madam Pauline Natalie Hunter became the 30th Chief of Clan Hunter following the death of her father in 1994. The eldest of Neil’s seven children, she has been most active in the promotion of Clan Hunter worldwide, holding regular Clan Gatherings in Scotland and planning a secure future for the spiritual home of Clan Hunter to benefit all Clansfolk and their families. She is our fifth female Clan Chief following in the footsteps of Jean Hunter (19th), Helen (24th), Jane (26th) and Eleanora, the 28th laird. ---- Add your ancestor here, see [[Using_Categories|Using Categories]].

He, in 1160, by Malcolm IV, was provided the lands now known as Innes outside of Elgin in Moray. The name Innes being derived from the Gaelic, Innis, which means meadow, greens or island, all descriptive of this area. The estate was originally of considerable size, extending from the eastern corner of the parish of Elgin, to the Burn of Auchinroath, in the parish of Rothes. As was typical of the Flemish knights on being granted lands Berowald's grandson, Walter, assumed the surname Innes and was granted a charter of confirmation by Alexander II of Scotland in 1226. Today the Clan is considered an armigerous clan by the Standing Council of Scottish Chiefs. Guy Innes-Ker, the 10th Duke of Roxburghe is undoubtedly the Chief of Clan Innes, however he cannot be recognised as such as he retains the name Innes-Ker. ==Clan Branches== ===Other Names Associated with the Clan=== ==Allied Clans== ===Rival Clans=== ==Clan Research and Free Space Pages== ===Source Material=== ===Image Credits and Acknowledgements===

==Surname Irvine/Irving, Clan Irvine/Irving Origins== There is a distinction between Clan Irving of Bonshaw and Clan Irvine of Drum. This distinction is more than the variant spelling of the name. It was the opinion of the Irving of Bonshaw that they both have a common ancestor but are two distinct Clans. See: http://www.clanirving.com/the_clan/history-of-the-irvings/ The name is thought to have been derived from the Brittonic "ir afon" meaning "green water". :Variant spellings of the surname Irvine/Irwing/Irwin as it spread around the world: ::EIRRYN ERWYNE ERWINE ERWIN ERWYN ERWINNE ERVINE ERWING EREVEIN EREWINE HERWYND HERWYNE IRWING IREWING IRVEIN IRWEN IRWAN IRUYN IRVYN IRUIN HURVEN IRVINN IRWYN IRVINGE IRWINE IRWYNG IRWYNN IRWYNE IRVINE IRWIN IRVEYN IRRWING IRUYNE IRUWYN IREWYNE IRRWIN IRVIN IRVEING IRVYING IRVING IRREWIN IRREWINE IRREWING IRRUWING MACIRVINE URWIN URWING URWYNG URWEN YRWING YRWIN Glentulcan The hereditary Chief of Clan Irvine is the Chief of the Irvine of Drum. However in August 2014 the Lord Lyon King of Arms recognised an independent branch of the Clan Irvine, established in the Borders at Bonshaw since 1660, and recognised the representor of the Irvings of Bonshaw, then Robert Alec Snow Irving, Captain (Royal Navy) Retd., as head or chief of the Border branch of the Clan Irvine, a branch chief within Clan Irvine. He is recognised as Chief of [[:Category:Irving Clan|Clan Irving of Bonshaw]]. Borderers (particularly those banished by James VI of Scotland) took part in the plantation of Ulster becoming the people known as Ulster-Scots (Scotch-Irish in America). Reiver descendants can be found throughout Ulster with names such as Irvine, Elliot, Armstrong, Beattie, Bell, Hume and Heron, Rutledge, and Turnbulls amongst others. The inhabitants of the Borders had to live in a state of constant alert, and for self-protection, they built fortified tower houses. In the very worst periods of warfare, people were unable to construct more than crude turf cabins, the destruction of which would be little loss. When times allowed however, they built houses designed as much for defence as shelter. ----------- See Also: *'''Obituary: David Irvine of Drum, chief who helped end a centuries-old clan feud'''>"Obituary: David Irvine Of Drum, Chief Who Helped End A Centuries-Old Clan Feud". 2020.

Historically, "Johnston" has been an alternate spelling of the surname. The first known person of this name was John of Johnstone, who in 1174 gave his name to the lands of Annandale in Dumfrieshire which he had been granted. His son, called Gilbert Johnstone ("Gillibertus de Johnistoun") appears on records between 1194-1214 and onwards, presumably taking his surname from the town his father had established - "Johnstone" or "John's toun". Gilbert's Grandson called Sir John Johnstone was a Knight of the county of Dumfries. [4] Sir John Johnstone signed the Ragman Roll of King Edward I of England in 1296. At this time Perth was known as St Johnston and Johnstonburn in East Lothian was then called Jonystoun. These two areas have records of the Johnstone Clan. A third area of Johnstones which came from Stephen the Clerk and Margaret the heiress of Sir Andrew Garioch used the family name of Johnston. --------- Stephen de Johnston, called The Clerk, married Margaret de Garviach, before April 1380. It was through this marriage to Margaret, daughter and heiress of Sir Andrew Garioch, knight, of Caskieben that he got the lands of Caskieben, Crimond, Kinburn and others, which he called Johnston, from his own name, and from him are descended all the Johnstons of the North. Johnston of Caskieben is one of the most ancient families of the name of Johnston, and have always competed with the Johnstons of Annandale for the chiefship. They have long been designated "Of That Ilk"; which generally denotes head or chief of a clan. --------------------- '''See Also:''' *[[Johnstone-1299|Major Percy Hope-Johnstone]], de jure 10th Earl of Annandale and Hartfell, 25th Chief of the Name and Arms of Johnstone, 10th Hereditary Steward of Annandale and 10th Hereditary Keeper of Lochmaben Palace.

For this valour Malcolm II of Scotland dipped three fingers into the blood of the dead and drew them down the warrior's shield The warrior was thereafter named Marbhachair Chamuis, which meant the Camus Slayer. The chief of the Clan Keith has borne the same three lines on his shield ever since. It can be found as early as 1316 on the seal of Sir Robert de Keith. King Malcolm's victory at the Battle of Carham in 1018 brought him into possession of Lothian and the lands of Keith in Lothian were subsequently held by the Camus Slayer. It is from these lands that his progeny took their name. A Norman adventurer named Hervey married the native heiress of Marbhachair and, in about 1150, David I of Scotland granted her a charter for the lands of Keith. In a charter of 1176 their son was styled as Marischal of the King of Scots. The Marischal was charged with the safety of the king's person within Parliament and was also custodian of the royal regalia. '''Wars of Scottish Independence''' In 1308, Robert the Bruce granted the royal Halforest of Aberdeenshire to his friend, Robert de Keith. Here the Marischal built his castle. His nephew was William Keith of Galston, who returned Bruce's heart to Melrose Abbey after the death of the Sir James Douglas at the Battle of Teba in Andalucia. Bruce confirmed to the family the hereditary office of marischal by a charter of 1324 and Sir Robert de Keith had commanded the Scottish cavalry at the Battle of Bannockburn. The office was held upon the condition that they bore the ancient arms that they had inherited from Marbhachair Chamuis. Sir Robert Keith, the Marishchal, escorted the young David II of Scotland when he fled to France to escape the usurpation Edward Balliol. '''15th century and clan conflicts ''' Clan Keith were often at feud with neighboring Clan Irvine and, in 1402, Clan Irvine are said to have attacked and defeated an invading war party of Clan Keith in what was known as the Battle of Drumoak. Sir William Keith, the Marischal who died in 1407, married the heiress of Sir Alexander Fraser and in doing so added great estates in Buchan, Kincardine and Lothian to his existing patrimony. William's brother, John Keith, married the Cheyne heiress, which brought the Keiths massive estates in Inverugie as well as Inverugie Castle, which later became the seat of the clan chiefs. Three of Sir William Keith's children married children of Robert II of Scotland, while another daughter married Sir Adam Gordon, ancestor of the Earls of Huntly. In 1458 the third Lord Keith was made Earl Marischal and was the only peer to be styled by his office of state. A branch of Clan Keith who inhabited Caithness fought at the Battle of Tannach (probably 1464), where they assisted Clan Mackay against Clan Gunn. They later fought another battle against the Gunns, known as the Battle of Champions (probably 1478). This battle was fought between 12 men of Clan Gunn and 24 men of the Clan Keith. All the Gunns, including the chief of the clan, were killed. However, the chief of Clan Keith was soon after killed by the Gunns in a revenge attack. '''16th and 17th centuries''' William Keith, 3rd Earl of Marischal, along with the Earl of Glencairn, invited John Knox the religious reformer back to Scotland in 1559. William Keith, 4th Earl Marischal, founded the Marischal College in Aberdeen. George Keith, 5th Earl Marischal, undertook the embassy to Denmark which resulted in the marriage of James VI of Scotland to Anne of Denmark. After Charles II of England was crowned in 1651, William Keith, 7th Earl Marischal, was captured and imprisoned in the Tower of London. He remained there until the Restoration, when the king appointed him a Privy Councillor and later Lord Privy Seal as recompense for what he and his family had suffered in the royal cause. After Charles's coronation, the Scottish crown jewels had been hidden on the Keith lands and, as a result, Marishcal's brother, John Keith, was created Knight Marischal and Earl of Kintore. '''18th century and Jacobite risings''' George Keith, 8th Earl Marischal, was appointed a Knight of the Thistle by James Francis Edward Stuart (the Old Pretender). During the Jacobite rising of 1745, Clan Keith supported the Jacobite cause. As a result, George Keith, 10th Earl Marischal, along with his brother, James, forfeited their lands, castles and titles. However, the two Keith brothers played a part in Continental affairs during the 18th century with the earl being one of the very few Jacobite Knights of the Garter. He also received the highest order in Prussia, the Black Eagle, while his brother, James, was given Russia's Imperial Order of St Andrew. '''Modern history''' In 1801, the Lord Lyon King of Arms recognised Keith of Ravelston and Dunnotter as representer of the Marischal Keiths, and his nephew was dubbed Knight Marischal in 1822 for George IV's visit to Edinburgh that year. The 9th Earl of Kintore was flamboyant and decimated the Kintore estates. However, Ian Keith, 12th Earl of Kintore, promoted the clan internationally and appointed a Seanchaí to preserve their history and traditions.

These settlements spread down the west coast as far as Wales. Cunedda is rendered as Cinneidgh in the Celtic language, meaning ugly or grim-headed. The name became associated with the district of Carrick, Scotland. Kennedy comes from the flattering Gaelic word cinneidigh, which in ancient Ireland meant "ugly headed". Crossing the Irish Sea to settle in an area of Dalriada now called Carrick in Ayrshire, they were probably led by Gilbert, whose son Duncan became the 1st Earl of Carrick in the 12th century. During the early part of the reign of William the Lion, Gilbert Mac Kenedi witnessed a charter to Melrose Abbey granting lands in Carrick. ] During the reign of Alexander II of Scotland Gillespie Kennedy is named in charters as the senechal of Carrick. '''Wars of Scottish Independence:''' The Kennedys claimed a blood kinship with the Earl of Carrick and supported Robert the Bruce during the Wars of Scottish Independence. In 1372 Robert II of Scotland rewarded John Kennedy of Dunure as chief of his name and ballie of Carrick. '''15th and 16th centuries:''' In about 1457 John's direct descendant, Gillbert, was created Lord Kennedy. He was also a regent to the infant James III of Scotland. James Kennedy, brother of the first Lord Kennedy, was one of Scotland's best loved bishops. James served briefly as High Chancellor of Scotland and was also Bishop of Dunkeld, and also later Archbishop of St Andrews. In 1455 he founded St Salvator's College. Hugh Kennedy of Ardstinchar was a Scots mercenary who fought at the Siege of Orléans for Joan of Arc. As a result Joan figures on the arms of Kennedy of Bargany.[ In 1509, Sir David Kennedy, the third Lord Kennedy was created Earl of Cassillis. He was killed at the Battle of Flodden in 1513. The second Earl of Cassillis was murdered in 1527. Gillbert Kennedy, the third Earl, was one of four Scottish commissioners who were poisoned on their return from the marriage of Mary, Queen of Scots to the Dauphine of France in 1558. The third Earl had inherited his title at the age of twelve and one of his first acts was to sign the death warrant of Patrick Hamilton, the first Scottish Protestant martyr. The Moray Kennedys were a branch of the clan who travelled north with the sister of the third Lord Kennedy, Janet Kennedy who had a son by James IV of Scotland, as part of the possession of the earldom of Moray. The Moray Kennedys became a sept of the Clan Cameron. '''See Also:''' {| border="1" class="wikitable" ! Clan Name ! ! Crest Badge ! Kennedy Marquess of Ailsa ! Lands ! Tartan !

'''Ferniehirst Castle''' [[Image:Maria s Photobox-1.gif|px 200|text:Ferniehirst Castle]] A Scottish clan whose origins lie in the Scottish Borders. During the Middle Ages it was one of the prominent border reiver clans along the present-day Anglo-Scottish border and has played an important role in the history of the Border country of Scotland. '''Origins of the clan:''' The name Kerr is rendered in various forms such as Kerr, Ker, Carr and Carre. The name stems from the Old Norse kjrr which means marsh dweller, and came to Scotland from Normandy, the French settlement of the Norsemen. There is another variant found on the west coast of Scotland, particularly on the Isle of Arran, taken from the Gaelic ciar, meaning dusky. Family tradition asserts the Norman origin for the chiefs, from two brothers, Ralph and Robert (also called John), who came to Roxburgh from Lancashire. It has never been confirmed who was the elder brother of the two, although the senior branch of the family, the Kerrs of Ferniehurst claim descent from Ralph, while their rivals, the Kerrs of Cessford descended from John. The Clan descended from two brothers, Ralph and John, who settled in Jedburgh c.1330. Ralph Kerr’s line became the Marquesses of Lothian, while John’s rose to the Dukedom of Roxburgh. At different times both lines held the title Warden of the Middle March, an appointment by Scottish kings to administer law and defend Scotland’s frontier against the English. The two main branches of the Clan Kerr, the Kerrs of Ferniehurst and the Kerrs of Cessford often feuded with each other. However both Andrew Kerr of Ferniehurst and Andrew Kerr of Cessford were made Wardens of the Middle Marches. The former in 1502 and the latter in after the Battle of Flodden in 1513. After the Battle of Flodden Field, some of the Liddesdale clans put themselves under the Kerr of Ferniehurst's protection, but in 1523 his castle was taken by the English after a protracted defence. The Clan Kerr feuded in particular with the Clan Scott. The feud began on the 25 July 1526 when Sir Walter Scott of Buccleuch launched an attack to rescue the young James V of Scotland who was being held by the Douglas Earl of Angus at Darnick just west of Melrose, and in the ensuing fight Kerr of Cessford was killed.[5] The Kerrs however took their time and in 1552 they set upon Sir Walter Scott on Edinburgh High Street and killed him. The feud came to an end when Sir Thomas Kerr of Ferinhurst married Janet Scott who was the sister of the tenth Scott Laird of Buccleuch. Mark Kerr, had his lands of Newbattle and Prestongrange erected into the barony of Newbattle by a charter of 1591. In 1606 Mark Kerr was created Earl of Lothian. This title failed when his son died in 1624 without male issue. In 1621 Sir Andrew Kerr of Ferniehurst was created Lord Jedburgh in 1621. The third peerage to come to the family was the earldom of Ancram, which was given to Sir Robert Kerr, a descendant of a younger son of Sir Andrew Kerr of Ferniehurst. In 1616 Sir Robert Ker of Cessford, by this time spelt his surname with a single ‘r’, was created Earl of Roxburghe. In 1631 Sir William Kerr, son of the Earl of Ancram, was granted a new earldom of Lothian in 1631. His son was Robert Kerr who was advanced to the rank of Marquess and who also succeeded to the earldom of Ancram on the death of his uncle. During the Scottish Civil War, Colonel Kerr supported the Covenanter commander, General David Leslie, Lord Newark, and took the Clan Mackenzie's Redcastle, demolished it and hanged the garrison.

Bartolf was allegedly in the retinue of Edgar the Ætheling, brother of Saint Margaret of Scotland, who was later the queen of Malcolm III of Scotland. Bartolf was said to be a man of intellect and bravery and as a result Malcolm III made him governor of the royal Edinburgh Castle and gave him estates in Fife, Angus, Mearns and Aberdeenshire. It is said that Bartolf helped the queen across a dangerous river on a horse and that Bartolf told her to "grip fast", which is where the chief's motto comes from. Bartolf established himself in the Garioch district of Aberdeenshire, at a place then known as Lesselyn. At Lesselyn he built a castle and it is from there that the name evolved into Lesley, and the various spelling variations. Bartolf's son was named Malcolm and was made constable of the royal Inverury Castle, which he held for David II of Scotland. His great-grandson was Sir Norman Lesley who acquired the lands of Fythkill in Fife, which were later called Lesley, in about 1282. The chiefly line of the Clan Leslie passed to a junior branch of the family, from who the present Earl of Rothes descends, in obscure circumstances. In 1391 Sir Norman Lesley believed that his only son, David, had been killed in the Crusades, and therefore passed over his estates to his cousin, Sir George Lesley. Then in 1398, after George Lesley had taken possession of the castle and lands, David returned from the Crusades and claimed possession of his estate. The family managed to resolve the matter peacefully and in 1445 Sir George Lesley's grandson, also called George, was created a Lord of Parliament as Lord Lesley of Leven, and all of his lands were united into the barony of Ballinbreich. At somepoint before 1458 he was then advanced to the title of Earl of Rothes ----------- Historical records of the family of Leslie from 1067 to 1868-69.

Tartan Dress |- !CLAN LINDSAY '''History of the Clan''' The name Lindsay is derived from "Lincoln's Island" from an area in England. The Lindsays were prominent in both England and Scotland from the late 11th century.[1] Sir Walter de Lindissie (Sir Walter de Lindeseya) accompanied David of Scotland, Earl of Huntingdon to claim his throne 1124. Sir Walter settled in Lothian and Upper Clydeside. Over the years there were many different spellings of the name as different strands of the name spread across Scotland, with many of the holders making a significant contribution to Scottish history. Walter's great-grandson, Sir William de Lindesay, sat in the Parliament of 1164 and was later a justiciar.[1] William Lindsay held the lands of Crawford. The chief's premier title was later Earl of Crawford.[1] Sir William Lindsay sat in Parliament as Baron of Luffness in East Lothian.[1] His wife was Etherlreda who was a granddaughter of Cospatrick who ruled most of Northumbria.[1] A descendant of Sir Walter, Sir William de Lindesay, held the lands of Crawford in Lanarkshire and sat in the Scots Parliament in 1164. He acquired considerable wealth through marriage to a grand-daughter of the ruler of much of Northumbria. His son, Sir David, married a member of the Scottish royal family and his grandson also inherited English estates. One of his descendants, also named Sir David, became High Chamberlain of Scotland in 1256. He perished on a Crusade with King Louis of France in 1268. His son, Sir Alexander, had to choose between Robert the Bruce and King Edward I and chose to support the Scottish cause, thus losing his English properties. In 1320, Lord David Crawford was one of the signatories to the Declaration of Arbroath. One of his sons married a daughter of Walter, High Steward of Scotland - the Stewards/Stewarts later became the long line of Scottish monarchs. Sir William Lindsay's son was Sir David Lindsay who married a member of the royal family named Marjory.[1] David died in 1214 and was succeeded as Lord Crawford and High Justiciar of Lothian by his son who was also called David.[1] This David also inherited the English estates of Limesay and Wolveray.[1] One of his descendants was another Sir David Lindsay who was Chamberlain of Scotland in 1256.[1] The aforementioned David Lindsay's grandson was yet another David whose seal was appended to the letter of 1320 to the Pope, asserting the independence of Scotland, that was more often known as the Declaration of Arbroath.[1] His second son, Sir James Lindsay, married Ejida, daughter of Walter Stewart, 6th High Steward of Scotland and sister of Robert II of Scotland.[1] Above is an extract from Wikipedia see also [[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Clan_Lindsay]] or here [[http://www.electricscotland.com/webclans/index.html 2]] |[[Image:Photos-86.png|90px|??]] |[[Image:Photos-87.png|120px|??]] |[[Image:Photos-338.jpg|140px|??]] |[[Image:Photos-340.jpg|130px|??]] |[[Image:Photos-339.jpg|130px|??]] |[[Image:Lindsay-210.jpg|Lindsay-210.jpg]] |- |}

The clan does not currently have a chief and is therefore considered an armigerous clan. There is an active Clan Little Society which maintained a "Guardian", an individual recognised by the society but not by Lord Lyon. The "Guardian" died in 2007 and was not replaced before 2013 and the current status is unknown.

Black; The Surnames of Scotland; 1946 New York Library; 1999 Birlinn Limited, Edinburgh; pp. 432 This name, Parvus, appears on early Charter records but it is not clear whether these individuals are related to the later family of Meikledale. As a descriptive name it is likely that there is no single source of Little as a family name. Given the geographic allocation, of Meikledale in the Borders, it seems possible that the originating family accompanied Walter Fitz Alan, (later Stewart) as he is known to have provided his knights with lands in these districts. There is a noticeA historical and topographical account of North Britain from the most ancient to the present times, ......; Chalmers, G., Volume 6 that Walter granted, likely c. 1165, lands at Cairntable, in Ayrshire, to an Alan Little, who is mentioned as having been neighbour to Walter in Cheshire. The Littles are thought to have accompanied Wallace in 1296 and 1297, possibly to Stirling Bridge, and this allocation, in Ayrshire, would have made them near neighbours to Wallace. The Wallace lands were, in themselves, a grant from Walter Fitz Alan. It is probableBlind Harry the Minstrel (15th century), Wallace. that a sister to Sir William Wallace married a Little and had a son named Edward, who became a trusted lieutenant. Edward appears in the poem by Blind Harry: "And Edward Littil his sisters sone so der / Full wel graithit in till thar armour cler". Edward must have died in Wallace's cause as the family made peace with Edward I., and there is notice of a Nicol Little as Conservator of the Peace for Clochmabenstane, near Gretna in the Scottish West March in 1300. At sometime prior to 1426, but likely soon before, a Simon Lytil was granted, as a new grant, the lands of Meikledale, Sorbie and Kirktoun in Ewesdale, Dumfriesshire by the then regent, Robert Stewart, 1st Duke of Albany. The grant was confirmed in 1426 shortly after James I returned from his captivity in England. Hence Simon Little is recognised as the lst Laird of Meikledale.

Hereditable Keeper of the Great Staff of Saint Moluag. Clan Chief of the Clan MacLea. Succeeded his father in 2008. '''Origin''' Legend says that a Saxon called Leving gave his name to the lands in West Lothian and they became Livingston. The people of the area took this as their family name. Four generations on Sir William Livingston of Livingston fought beside King David II at the Battle of Durham in the 1346 attack into England. When both he and the King were captured he helped negotiate his King’s release and for this was granted the barony of Callendar in 1347. In 1440 the Livingstons of Callendar persuaded the young Earl of Douglas and his brother to come and reconcile the two families’ differences at a banquet for that purpose in Edinburgh Castle. Upon their arrival, however, the brothers were taken and slain. The Douglases avenged their loss by imprisoning Sir Alexander Livingston and executing one of his sons. The 5th Lord Livingston, Alexander, was chosen in 1543 to help tutor the child Mary, Queen of Scots. When she went to France he went with her and died there. His own daughter Mary was one of the loved ‘Four Marys’. Alexander’s son William became the 6th Lord and fought passionately for his father’s ex-pupil at the Battle of Langside, an area now within Southern Glasgow. He died in 1592. The estates and titles of the Livingstons suffered badly during the Jacobite rising of 1715 because of their patriotism. :See: [https://www.wikitree.com/index.php?title=Space:Clan_Livingston Clan Livingston] free-space profile for more complete information.

It has been officially approved by the Lord Lyon and recorded in the Lyon Court books. Its design reflects the family connection with the Macdonalds of Clanranald. Tartan is made in the Borders town of Selkirk, Scotland. === History === The name Lockhart is derived from Locard, sometimes spelt Lokart which is probably Flemish or Norman in origin. The modern spelling seems to have been introduced in the fifteenth century, and refers to the crusade on which Sir Symon Locard was the custodian of the key of the casket in which Bruce’s heart was carried. Like many Scottish families the Locards came from England where they were among those who were dispossessed by William the Conqueror and sought refuge in Scotland. There were Locards near Penrith in the twelfth century and also in Annandale in Dumfriesshire where the town of Lockerbie is said to be named after them. The family finally settled in Ayrshire and Lanarkshire where they have held land for over seven hundred years. The earliest paper in the family archives is a charter dated 1323 by which Sir Symon Locard bound himself and his heirs to pay out of the lands of Lee and Carnwath an annual rent of £10. Stephen Locard, grandfather of Sir Symon, founded the village of Stevenson in Ayrshire. His son Symon acquired the lands in Lanarkshire, and like his father, called a village which he founded, Symons Town (today called Symington) after himself. Symon, Second of Lee, won fame for himself and his family fighting alongside Robert the Bruce in the struggle to free Scotland from English domination and was knighted for his loyal service. He was among the knights led by Sir James Douglas, who took Bruce’s heart to the Crusades in 1329 to atone for his murder of John Comyn in the church of Greyfriars. Douglas carried the King’s heart in a casket of which Sir Symon carried the key. The Crusade ended prematurely when Douglas was killed fighting the Moors in Spain, but to commemorate the adventure and the honour done to the family, the name was changed from Locard to Lockheart and later abbreviated to Lockhart. A heart within a fetterlock was from then on included in the arms of the family with the motto “Corda Serrata Pando” - I open locked hearts. SOURCE: Clan Lockhart website. === Lee Penny, Famous Talisman === The family took more than a new name home from the Crusades. It gained a precious heirloom which has been treasured ever since; the mysterious charm known as the Lee Penny. (Sir Walter Scott used the story of its acquisition by the family as a basis for his novel, “The Talisman”.) At the battle of Teba in Spain, Sir Symon captured a Moorish Emir and received from the man’s mother, as part of his ransom, an amulet or stone with healing powers. The Prince’s mother told Sir Symon that the stone was a sovereign remedy against bleeding and fever, the bite of a mad dog, and sickness in horses and cattle. The stone is dark red in colour and triangular in shape and was later set in a silver coin which has been identified as a fourpenny piece of the reign of Edward IV. The Penny is kept in a gold snuffbox which was a gift from Maria Theresa, Empress of Austria to her general, Count James Lockhart in 1789. Such is the belief in the stone’s powers that a descendant of Sir Symon, Sir James Lockhart of Lee, was charged with sorcery, an offence which could carry the death penalty. After examining the accused, the Synod of the Church of Scotland, dismissed the case, because the custom is only to cast a stone in some water and give deseasit cattle thereof to drink and the same is done without using any words such as charmers use in their unlawful practices and considering that in nature there are many things seen to work strange effects whereof no human wit can give reason in having pleast God to give the stones and herbs a special vertue for healing of many infirmities in man and beast. The fame of the Lee Penny spread through Scotland and Northern England and there are many recorded occasions when it was employed with apparent success. It remains in the Lockhart family to this day.

It is documented that two of them were killed in Spain in 1329 on their way to the Holy Land with the heart of King Robert I (the Bruce). Sir Robert Logan of Restalrig (d. 1606) had his bones exhumed and paraded in Parliament so that he could personally be convicted of treason. The Highland Logans claim descent from the Logans of Drumderfit in Easter Ross. See also MacLennan, with whom the Highlander Logans are closely linked. The original seat of the Logans in the north seems to have been Druimanairig in Wester Ross. Early in the fourteenth century, however, the original line of the chiefs ended in an heiress, Colan Logan, who married Eachan Beirach, a son of the Baron of Kintail, and carried the estates into his possession. Eachan took his wife’s name, and, dying at Eddyrachillis about the year 1350, left a son, Eanruig, from whom descended the Sliochd Harich, who continued the race in the island of Harris. But the chiefship could not pass through a female, and the new head of the clan, having moved into Easter Ross, settled at Druim-na-clavan, already mentioned, in the Black Isle. This chief, known as Gilliegorm, the "Blue Lad," from his dark complexion, was a famous fighting man. He married a relative of Hugh Fraser, who at that time had attained a footing in the Aird, and became ancestor of the Lords Lovat. Between the two a dispute arose, which Gilliegorm prepared to settle by force of arms. Fraser, however, obtained the help of twenty-four gentlemen of his name from the south, and with a force, including the MacRaes in the district of Aird, and others, marched to the attack. The two parties met on the Muir above Kessock ferry, and there, in a bloody battle, Gilliegorm and most of his men were slain. It was as a result of this battle that the name of Druim-na-clavan, the seat of the chief, was changed to Druim-an-deur, the Druimdeurfait of the present day. Among the plunder of Logan’s lands which Fraser carried off was the wife of Gilliegorm himself. She was about to become a mother, and it was determined that if the child proved a male it should be maimed or destroyed, to prevent it revenging its father’s death. The child, which proved a boy, was, either by accident or intention, a humpback, and from the fact received the name of "Crotach." He was educated by the monks of Beauly, became a priest, and travelling through the Highlands, founded the churches of Kilmore in Skye and Kilichrinan in Glenelg. Following the old fashion of the Culdee clergy he married, and among several children, left one known as Gillie Fhinan, the servant of St. Finan, whose descendants are the MacGhillie Fhinans, Mac-’ illie ‘-inans, or MacLennans of the present day. The last Chief of the Clan was Hugh Logan who died in 1802 without a male heir, leaving the Logan estate to his sister.

The clan does not have a Chief recognised by Lord Lyon King of Arms, and therefore can be considered an armigerous clan. Today, it is thought by some that Clan MacLennan is a variant of the Highland Logan Clan. The surname Logan is a territorial name, likely derived from the lands of Logan in present Ayrshire, Scotland. The earliest record of the surname is of Robert Logan who is recorded as witnessing the resignation of the lands of Ingilbristoun in 1204. The name is variously recorded throughout the 13th century. Several Logans are recorded as paying homage to Edward I of England within the Ragman Rolls of 1296. These are Phelippe de Logyn (burgess from Montrose), Thurbrandus de Logyn (from Dumfrieshire), Andreu de Logan (from Wigtonshire), and Wautier Logan (from Lanarkshire). The seal of Wautier Logan (SIGILLVM WALTERI LOGAN) is blazoned a stag's head cabossed, between the antlers, a shield with three piles. Walter Logan, lord of Hartside was a sheriff of Lanark in 1301, and in 1298 had received a grant of the lands of "Lus" from Robert Bruce. This Walter Logan appears twice on a roll of landowners forfeited in 1306 by Edward I, for supporting Robert the Bruce. The first instance of Logan has John Cromwell as the petitioner for Logan's forfeited lands, while the second instance of Walter Logan has William Mulcaster and John Bisset petitioning for his lands. ------------------------- :Crest: A passion nail piercing a human heart, Proper; :Motto: HOC MAJORUM VIRTUS, (Latin:"this is valour of my ancestors") :Slogan: Druim-nan-deur (translation from Scottish Gaelic: "the ridge of tears"). :Region: :District: :Plant badge: :Pipe music: :Gaelic name: '''Septs:''' '''Names associated with the clan:''' '''See Also:''' *

''Clan Lyon - Glamis Castle''
Clan Lyon is a Scottish clan associated with the lands of Glen Lyon in Perthshire, Scotland. Origin of the name: Leon, Normandy, France. Although Sir Iain Moncreiffe, perhaps the greatest herald genealogist, believed his family were of Celtic origin and descended from a younger son of the Lamonts, the generally accepted view is that they descended from a French family called de Leon, who came north with Edgar, son of Malcolm III, at the end of the eleventh century to fight against his uncle, Donald Bane, the usurper of the throne. Edgar was triumphant, and de Leon received lands in Perthshire which were later called Glen Lyon. Roger de Leonne witnessed a charter of Edgar to the Abbey at Dunfermline in 1105. {| border="1" width ="80%" ! colspan="3" style="background-color:#254AB4; color:#FFF;"| Clan Lyon Team |- |Team Leader || |- |Team Members|| |- |} ==Clan Team== ===Team Goals=== The focus of this team's work is to identify, improve and maintain profiles associated with the Lairds and Chiefs of Clan Lyon together with members bearing the name Lyon, the related families and those recognised as septs of Clan Lyon. ===Team To Do List=== This list will be developed by the Team.

The clan is the earliest branch to have split off from Clan Donald, claiming descent from Alasdair Mòr, son of Domhnall founder of Clan Donald. From Alasdair Mòr the clans takes its surname MacAlister; "son of Alasdair". There is some contention regarding the prigin of the Clan. Today, Clan MacAlister claims to descend from Alasdair Mòr, son of Domhnall, founder of Clan Donald (as mentioned above). However, there has been confusion on the founder. The contention arises due to the fact that there were two prominent Alasdairs (an uncle and nephew). Both of these men left many sons, however, their immediate posterity are not clearly connected with any specific area. The lack of charter evidence clouds the true history of the clan; as does the fact that for about two hundred years, the descendants of both men did not form an organised clan of their own. Alasdair Mòr first appears on record in 1253, when is recorded as witnessing a charter by his brother, Aonghas Mór a Íle, to the Paisley Abbey. According to Angus and Archibald Macdonald, he must have been a prominent man, being the only recorded brother of the Aonghas Mór. A. and A. Macdonald state that he was recorded in the Irish Annals, in 1299, as being a man noted for "hospitality and excellence". In that year he was slain in a conflict with Alasdair of Argyll and the MacDougalls. According to the traditional shanachies, Alasdair Mòr had at least five sons: Domhnall, Gofraidh, Donnchadh, Eoin and Eachann. He was succeeded by Domhnall In the 15th century the chief of the clan was seated in Kintyre, and the clan was centred there until the 18th century, when a chief sold the family estate in preference to a lowland estate. The current chief of the clan is William St John Somerville McAlester of Loup and Kennox, Chief of the Name and Arms of MacAlister. The chief was recognised as such by the Lord Lyon King of Arms, in 1991. http://macalisterhistory.com/ http://www.clanmcalister.org/ - Link to Clan McAlister of America lineage society (founded 1990) http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Clan_MacAlister :Crest: A hand holding a dagger. :Motto: Fortiter - (Boldly) and Per mare per terras (By sea and land). :Slogan: :Region: :District: :Plant badge: :Pipe music: :Gaelic name: MacAlisdair. This important family was one of the earliest branches to assert its independence from the great Clan Donald. Some doubt exists as to the exact progenitor of this clan, but it is now accepted they are the descendants of Alastair Mor, son of Donald of the Isles. Alastair first appears as a witness to a charter granted by his brother Angus, Lord of the Isles, to the Abbey of Paisley around 1253. The lands of Lowb, later to be the chiefly designation of Loup, are mentioned in a charter by James III confirming lands in Kintyre to the Lord of the Isles. In 1481, Charles Macalister was made constable of the Castle of Tarbert, and received a grant of lands in Kintyre. Charles was succeeded as chief by his son, John, who is the first to be styled ‘of the Lowb’. The Castle of Tarbert was used by James IV as a naval supply base during his campaign to suppress the Lordship of the Isles. Clan Alastair occupied an influential position, although they were by no means a numerous clan, and therefore sought to secure their position by alliances with other houses. In 1591, Godfrey Macalister of Loup received a charter from the Earl of Argyll in relation to lands at Tarbert which they held until after 1745. The Macalisters were not immune from family quarrels, and in 1598 Godfrey Macalister killed his tutor and guardian, Charles Macalister, and thereafter besieged his sons at their house at Askomull. In 1600 the island of Arran was invaded by the Macalisters, who seized the house and estates of John Montgomery of Skelmorlie, plundering possessions valued at £12,000 Scots. Two years later, Archibald Macalister, the heir of Tarbert, led his men, along with other clans of north Kintyre, to raid the prosperous island of Bute. It is said that a force of over twelve hundred men ravaged the Stewart possessions on the island, for which act Archibald Macalister was denounced as a rebel. In 1605 Archibald and his kinsman, John Macalister, tutor of Loup, were ordered to appear before the Privy Council and fined surety on pain of being denounced as rebels. Alexander Macalister, along with Angus Og, leader of the Mac- donalds of Islay were found guilty of treason and after incarceration in the prison of the Tolbooth in Edinburgh, they were hanged. However, by 1623 Macalister of Loup was one of the justices of the peace for Argyllshire. The Macalisters came to Stirlingshire some time in the fourteenth century, and during generations that followed their Celtic name was anglicised into its more familiar lowland version, Alexander. By the sixteenth century they settled on the estates of Menstrie only a few miles north-east of the mighty royal Castle of Stirling. William Alexander of Menstrie became a courtier under the patronage of the Earl of Argyll. He was instrumental in promoting the colonisation of the Scottish territories in Canada, known as Nova Scotia, and devised the scheme whereby those investing in the colony would receive the honour known as a Baronetcy of Nova Scotia. The scheme was a roaring success, although it did more to bolster the flagging royal finances than secure the development of the far-distant colony. There is a splendid room displaying the arms of the Baronets of Nova Scotia still preserved at Menstrie. He was rewarded by his grateful royal master first with a viscountcy, and then the earldom of Stirling. In 1631 Archibald Macalister of Tarbert visited his kinsman, William Alexander, now Earl of Stirling, at his Castle of Menstrie, and the earl procured for his guest election as a burgess of the royal burgh of Stirling in August of that year. It was during his kinsman of Tarbert’s visit that the earl obtained an acknowledgment that he was chief of the Macalisters. This was, of course, entirely a product of the earl’s vanity, and had no genealogical basis whatsoever. By 1706 Tarbert had passed from the Macalisters into the possession of the Macleans. The chiefs continued to flourish on their lands of Loup and a younger son, Duncan, settled in Holland in 1717, where he rose to high rank in the army; his descendants can still be traced to this day. The chiefly family eventually sold off their estates in Kintyre, and the present chief lives in England. Glenbarr Abbey is the modern clan centre, displaying many interesting artifacts and mementoes of the name.

The clan was established as an Irish sept in Antrim in north-east Ulster, as gallóglaigh (galloglasses), in the service of the Lord of the Isles and Clan MacDonald of Dunnyveg. Serving as galloglass warriors fighting on behalf of the Lord of the Isles and Clan MacDonald of Dunnyveg, the clansmen were granted lands in Antrim. Kinbane Castle was gifted to Owen MacEoin Dubh MacAlister by Sorley Boy MacDonnell. *The MacAlister surname is Gaelic in origin: mac Alasdair means ‘son of Alexander’. The name is associated with one of the West Highland clans in Scotland, originally a branch of Clan Donald. Although the origins of Highland clans are more varied than once believed, genetic studies suggest about 40% of Macalister men worldwide are direct descendants of Somerled, a powerful 12th century warlord. There are nearly as many different spellings for this name as there are people who use it, and most Macalisters will find a variety of spellings in their family history. (It is not true that Mac- is Scottish and Mc- Irish; both spellings have always been used in both places.) Some Alexander families are connected to this clan, having adopted the English name when they settled in the Lowlands, but the name Alexander was common throughout Europe and most Alexander families are unrelated. A hybrid form, MacAlexander, seems to have disappeared. Like other southwest Highland clans, Macalisters spread into Ireland early on. Some were established there by the 14th century, descendants of Highland mercenaries called gallòglaich; others followed the Macdonalds of Dunyvaig to Antrim after that clan lost its Scottish lands in the early 1600s. Like the Macdonalds, however, Macalisters as ‘uncivilised’ Gaels were not considered appropriate candidates for the Ulster Plantations and so they are not technically among those now called Ulster Scots (or Scotch-Irish). Before 1707, most Macalisters who went to the colonies did so as transportees. After 1707, however, the British Empire was opened to the Scots and many Macalisters took advantage of the opportunities offered by emigration – either as permanent settlers or as ‘sojourners’ seeking adventure or advancement before returning home. (Some West Indian Macalisters descend from sojourners who established temporary families with enslaved Africans there.) Macalisters were also among the early settlers in Australia, mostly willing emigrants rather than convicts. Today the name Macalister is found all over the world, but primarily in places once part of the British Empire, especially Australia and New Zealand. Notable Macalisters include Arthur Macalister (1818–1883) twice Premier of Queensland, Australia; John Kenneth Macalister (1914-1944), Canadian war hero executed at Buchenwald; David McAllister (1971-) Prime Minister of Lower Saxony; Mary McAllister (1909-1991), silent film star; Miles D. McAlester (1833–1869), Union general in the American Civil War; and David McAllister (1963- ), artistic director of the Australian Ballet.

=='''Clan MacAlpine/MacAlpin/McAlpin'''== This category deals with Clan MacAlpine and House of Alpin. The Clan, originating from the [[:Category: House of Alpin|House of Alpin]] has been recognised as an armigerous Clan in Scotland. However, on 17 April 2015, was provided approval, by the Lord Lyon, to conduct a Derbfine or Family Convention with the view to elect a Commander as Leader of Clan MacAlpine. ----- '''Clan MacAlpine''' '''SOURCE:''' ''Dr Bruce Durie'' Shennachie to the Chief of Durie, Honorary Fellow, University of Strathclyde gen@brucdurie.co.uk '''Arms:''' The Lord Lyon Court has granted a Family Convention to choose a Representer, who may become Chief of Name and Arms. Presently, there are eight MacAlpine armigers. '''Crest/Badge:''' As there is no Chief with Arms, there is no official Crest Badge. The one usually given is a boar’s head erased within a royal or antique crown. Sir Thomas Innes of Learney, a previous Lord Lyon King of Arms, in “The Scottish Tartans” refers to the claim that this Royal Clan is the most ancient in the Highlands, states that it is Celtic and that 25 generations of the Kings of Scotland claim to be of MacAlpine lineage. He also says that the ancient crest was a boar's head. '''Gaelic Name:''' MacAilpein (Son of Alpin) '''Motto:''' Cuimhnich Bàs Ailpein (Remember the Death of Alpin) '''Plant Badge:''' Giuthas (Scots Pine) '''Origin of Tartan:''' recorded prior to the launch of The Scottish Register of Tartans. The first documentation of a tartan is in The Clans, Sept and Regiments of the Scottish Highlands (1908) by Frank Adam, and is similar to the hunting MacLean, but for the yellow lines. Other tartans connected with Siol Alpin Clans are predominantly red. '''Lands:''' Dunstaffnage in Argyll, near Oban. Other areas under MacAlpine control included the Royal Palace at Forteviot, where King Kenneth moved his capital after subjugating the Picts and because of increasing Viking raids in Argyll. There is a sizeable cluster of MacAlpin(e)s around Kilmartin It seems strange that a surname apparently descended from Alpin, father of Kenneth MacAlpin (Cináed mac Ailpín, Coinneach mac Ailpein) has never had a Chief of Names and Arms. The reality is that there are no connected genealogies back to Alpin, despite claims of seven established Clans to descend from him (Clan Grant, Clan Gregor, Clan MacAulay, Clan Macfie, Clan Mackinnon, Clan Macnab, and Clan MacQuarrie, collectively called the Siol Alpin). The historical Alpín mac Echdach may refer to two different persons, the first a presumed king of Dál Riata in the late 730s, descended from Fergus Mór mac Eirc; the second the father of Kenneth MacAlpin. Most modern king-lists start with Kenneth I (810–13 February 858), King of the Picts, rather that the first King of Scots as the national mythology now makes him. The name Alpín is likely Pictish one, possibly derived from the Anglo-Saxon name Ælfwine. The patronymic Mac Echdach indicates son of Eochaid or Eochu. Sadly, Alpin is not listed in the 11th Century Duan Albanach (Song of the Scots) or the various Irish Annals, and there is no real evidence that he was a king in Dál Riata or that his father was Eochaid mac Áeda Find, who may be spurious in any case. In any case, the MacAlpine name is so ancient and will have arisen when the clan system was still developing. We know practically nothing of the real history of Cináed mac Ailpín (in Gaelic Coinneach mac Ailpein, commonly known as Kenneth MacAlpin). Most modern king lists start with him as Kenneth I (810–13 February 858) and while he was certainly king of the Picts, the national mythology that makes him first king of Scots is less historically certain. However, it is from this that his posthumous nickname arises - An Ferbasach, “The Conqueror”. Mediaeval lists of early kings were mostly compiled much later, are usually not consistent with each other and do not stand up to modern historical scrutiny. It was 100 years later that the Chronicle of the Kings of Alba was compiled, including the reference to Kenneth I: So Kinadius son of Alpinus, first of the Scots, ruled this Pictland prosperously for 16 years. Pictland was named after the Picts, whom, as we have said, Kinadius destroyed. ... Two years before he came to Pictland, he had received the kingdom of Dál Riata. This telling has Kenneth “destroying” the Picts, as the Gael king of the area encompassing more or less what is now Argyll (Oir-Ghàidheal, the land of the “eastern Gaels”) and Lochaber in Scotland, and Co. Antrim in Ulster (the area around Belfast). Other sources say Kenneth took the kingship there ca.840, after a catastrophic defeat of the Pictish army by Danes. The well-worn tale of how Kenneth’s father had been murdered by the Picts, and how Kenneth avenged him by calling the Pictish kings together for a dinner and slaughtering them, was recognised as early as the 1570s as being merely a later retelling of a story invented by Geoffrey of Monmouth’s in the 12th Century, regarding Saxon treachery at a feast. Historians now consider Kenneth I to be the fifth last of the Pictish kings rather than the first Scot (Gael) king, and there is no real evidence that he was a Scot who inherited the throne of Pictland through his mother by Pictish matrilineal succession. In any case, the Picts were neither “destroyed” nor “disappeared” but merely merged with the Scoto-Gaelic culture, which, unlike the Picts, had writing. The union of Pict and Gaels strengthened in the face of increased Norse settlement of Shetland, Orkney, Caithness, Sutherland, the Western Isles, the Isle of Man and part of Ross, which threatened and weakened the links with Ireland as the Norse controlled the western sea-ways. Kenneth died not in battle but from a cancer on 13 February 858 at the palace of Cinnbelachoir, possibly near Scone or Forteviot. He was reported as King of the Picts, not King of Alba, a title not used until Kenneth’s grandsons, Donald II (Domnall mac Causantín) and Constantine II (Constantín mac Áeda). It is said that merging of the Scot and Pict kingdoms was sealed by moving the ‘Stone of Destiny’, the symbolic seat of power of the Celtic Dalriadic Kings, from Dunstaffnage to Scone in heart of the old Pictish kingdom. It went to London with Edward I, but was returned, and can be seen along with the Honours of Scotland (the crown jewels) in Edinburgh castle. Kenneth also made Dunkeld the headquarters of the Celtic Church and capital of the newly formed nation. The sarcophagus in Govan's Old Parish Church, Glasgow, discovered in 1855, is thought to have once held the remains of Constantine, son of Kenneth MacAlpin, who died in 877 (see http://www.thegovanstones.org.uk/). That said, MacAlpin (and its variants) is anciently known in Scotland but may simply reflect “Son of Alba”, or be derived from another Elbin or similar name. An old Gaelic saying: “Cnuic `is uillt `is Ailpeinich" (Hills and Streams and MacAlpine) suggests that the origin of the MacAlpins was contemporary with the origin of the hills and streams, that is, the Earth itself. Black’s Surnames of Scotland lists early records of the name starting with John MacAlpyne who witnessed a charter by Malise, earl of Stratherne, of the lands of Cultenacloche and others in Glenalmond, c. 1260 (Grandtully, I, p. 126.), and Monaghe fiz Alpyn of the county of Perth who was forced to render homage to Edward I of England in 1296. Others include Monauche Macalpin, witness to a charter in 1285, Monach mac Alpy, who rendered homage to the government of Scotland in the year 1296, Malcolm Macalpyne who witnessed a charter by Duncan, Earl of Levenax (Lennox) in 1395, and Mordac Makcalpy who was granted permission by Henry IV of England to attend the University of Oxford in 1405. Modern DNA evidence suggests that present-day MacAlpin(e)s have two distinct genetic origins strongly represented - I2a2a1a1/L369 (eastern or “Pict”) and R1b1a2/M-269 (western or “Scot”, but the dominant R1b in Europe). There is little support for a shared origin with, say, MacGregor. The MacAlpines held a Family Convention in Scotland on 10 September 2016, supervised by an Officer of Arms appointed by the Lord Lyon. On 19 April 2017 a Commission was issued to Michael McAlpin as Commander of the Name ad interim. The procedures that will follow, will eventually see the recognition of a Chief, a welcome recognition of one of Scotland’s oldest and most distinguished surnames. © Bruce Durie 2015. All rights reserved. ----- '''House of Alpin''' [[http://www.wikitree.com/wiki/Category:House_of_Alpin]] Adapted from wikipedia.org: [[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/House_of_Alpin]] The House of Alpin, also known as the Alpínid dynasty, was the kin-group which ruled in Pictland and then the kingdom of Alba from the advent of Kenneth MacAlpin (Cináed mac Ailpín) in the 840s until the death of Malcolm II (Máel Coluim mac Cináeda) in 1034. Kings traced their descent from Kenneth MacAlpin (and not from his father, Alpín mac Echdach), and Irish genealogies in the Book of Ballymote and the Book of Lecan refer to the kindred as Clann Cináeda meic Ailpín, prioritising descent from Kenneth. The origins of the family are uncertain. Later genealogies of doubtful reliability make Kenneth a descendant of Áed Find. While plausible, such claims are unprovable and appear only in the late tenth century. The associated idea that Kenneth had been a king in Dál Riata before contending successfully for power in Pictland in the 840s, following the death of Eóganán mac Óengusa, is supported by near-contemporary evidence. Early kings of Clann Cináeda meic Ailpín are described as kings of the Picts, and the third king, Kenneth's son Constantine I (Causantín mac Cináeda), appears to have been regarded as the last of the seventy Pictish kings soon after his death. The descendants of Kenneth were ousted in 878 when Constantine I's brother, Áed mac Cináeda, was killed by Giric mac Dúngail, but returned in 889 when Constantine I's son Donald II (Domnall mac Causantín) ascended the throne upon the death or deposition of Giric. Donald II and his successors are described as kings of Alba. During the tenth century, succession alternated between the descendants of Constantine I and those of Áed. Internecine strife in the late tenth and early eleventh centuries left the descendants of Constantine I unchallenged by male-line descendants of Kenneth MacAlpin, but Malcolm II left no male heirs. On Malcolm's death, the line of kings descended from Kenneth came to an end. Future kings, while still tracing their descent from Kenneth, were descended from Malcolm's daughter Bethóc.

Such name is of Scandinavian origin meaning "Cauldron of the Thunder Spirit" and undoubtedly would have spread wherever the maurauding Norsemen stamped their influence. The traditional account of the MacCorquodales makes them of more ancient origin than the MacLeods, for the lands of Fionnt Eilean comprised, at one time, the northern shore of Loch Awe from Avich to Ard-an-aiseig, and such are said to have been granted to another Torquil, progenitor of the MacCorquodales, by King Kenneth MacAlpin. There is no evidence that this Torquil was of Clan Leod and the name MacCorquodale appears seldom, if ever, in the histories of that clan. It is evident by their Argyllshire habitat and title that the McCorquodales are a distinct clan, whose chiefs were the Barons MacCorquodale of Phantelane (The 'White Island' - Eilean-a-Bharain on Loch Tromlee). From their island castle they held Baronial power over the thousands of mountainuous acres which have been their domain since at least the 13th century. In 1428 Euan McCorquodale and the chief of the Campbells were summoned to Court, with their charters in order that adjudication might be made in a land dispute with Scrymgeour, Constable of Dundee, who held the neighbouring lands of Glassary. Such was resolved when Euan's son, Malcolm, married the Constable's daughter in 1436. The Dean of Lismore's book of Gaelic poetry (collected 1514-1551) contains verses by Effric nighean Thorcaidill, poetess of the clan, and in 1542 the McCorquodale lands were re-incorporated by royal charter as a free barony. In 1612, younger sons of the chief were charged by the Privy Council for consorting with proscribed MacGregors and the clan history and succession in the rest of that century is confused by two step brothers each contested the other's claim. The McCorquodales supported the Campbells in the Civil Wars and 'Colkitto' MacDonald sacked their island home in 1645. Since the death of the last Baron in the 18th century the chiefship has been uncertain. By Euan McCorquodale, May 11, 2013, Dairy, U.K.

Certainly the first of that name recorded on record is a family of MacCulloch (Thomas, Michael and William0 who swore fealty to Edward I of England in 1296. His line held the lands of Torhouse, Myreton and Ardwell in Galloway before that date and likely around the time of the fall of the ancient Kingdom of Galloway. This line held those lands until 1682 when a Sir Godfrey Macculloch sold the estates. He, following a fatal fight over some cattle with a Gordon neighbour, fled the country for a time, but returned, only to be imprisoned and executed in 1697. A family, likely of different origin, were established in Easter Ross by the 15th century, where they are first noted as followers of the Earl of Ross, and sometimes appear as a Sept of that [[:Category: Clan Ross|Clan]]. The time of their arrival is unknown and may have coincided with the [[:Category: Clan MacDonald|MacDonald]] invasions and on whose forfeiture, in 1493, the family appear to have aligned with the [[:Category:Clan Munro|Munros]]. This family had tenure of lands near Tain, of which town they held an almost hereditary post of Provost. Their principal designation is mentioned as 'of Plaidis' was held until John Macculloch, Provost of Tain, acquired the lands of Kindeace from Munro of Culnald in 1612, after which the family became known as 'of Kindeace'. Other lands held by the Maccullochs in Easter Ross, at various times, included Piltoun, Mulderg and Easter Drumm, the latter coming into their possession in 1649. A third family of Maccullochs, possibly the earliest, inhabited lands in the vicinity of Oban, and the island of Kerrara, on the West coast of Argyll, where Macculloch of Colgin was recognised as chief of his line who were said to be descended from a race of MacLulichs who had inhabited Benderloch under the patronage of the Macdougals. Collins Scottish Clan Encyclopedia states that the MacCullochs of Oban were descendants of the MacDougalls themselves. The line of Galloway was identified as the Chief's line and the last chief was MacCulloch of Myreton. The clan has no distinct tartan and those looking for an appropriate tartan may choose from the following: MacDougall, Ross, Munro or the District of Galloway tartans depending on the family genealogy.

[[Image:Photos-349.jpg|250px]] Henry Lee, 1920, writes the following in ''History of the Clan Donald, The Families of MacDonald, McDonald and McDonnell.'' http://www.archive.org/stream/historyofclandon00leeh#page/n3/mode/2up "The most numerous and widespread of the clans, the Clan Donald is one of the families, who, while using different surnames or different methods of writing the same surname, have an identical genealogical derivation. Of these, the families of MacDonald or McDonald, and MacDonell or McDonnell, are the most important. The mode of writing is immaterial, the name is the same; they are of one stock; and the story of Clan Donald is the story of their ancestors. As told later, the Clan derived its generic name from Donald, the grandson of Somerled: and hence the name MacDonald, or son of Donald, Mac, or the Gaelic Mhic, signifying son. By abbreviating the prefix to Mc and M' many families write the name McDonald and M'Donald. The surname MacDonell, McDonnell, McDonell, and other forms and methods of writing this name, came first into use, when Aeneas MacDonald of the Glengarry branch was, in 1660, raised to the Peerage of Scotland by the title of Lord MacDonell. In the earlier chapters the family name has been written in its unabbreviated form, MacDonald, although, even in those bygone days the shorter forms of Mac were frequently used; and any record of names in Scotland of today will indicate that the prefix is quite as frequently Mc as Mac. In the case of the modern families descended from the Clan, the mode of orthography has been followed, which, from long usage, the families have rightly been in the habit of using. The important position occupied by the Clan Donald and its branches invests the narrative of its rise and history with unusual interest to all, but more especially to those of the Clan, who may well refer with pride to their noble descent from the independent rulers of the island principality, the Kings of the Isles. The early history and descent of the Clan are involved in the cloudy shades of antiquity; and its origin is connected with many of the most interesting questions of Scottish ethnology." "The historical founder of the Family of the Isles was Somerled, Rex Insularum, for whom some writers have claimed a Norwegian origin, but although the name is Norse all other circumstances point to a different conclusion. The traditions of the Clan Donald invariably represent that he descended from the ancient Pictish division of the Gael, and the early history of the Clan Cholla , the designation of the Clan prior to the time of Donald, penetrates into far antiquity. Tradition takes us back to the celebrated Irish King, Conn-Ceud Chathach, or Conn of a Hundred Fights, the hundredth "Ard Righ," or supreme King of Ireland. Conn's court was at Tara and he died in 157 A.D. The Scottish poet Ewen MacLachlan refers to this early royal ancestor of the race of Somerled." DNA evidence has conclusively shown that all current Clan Chifs and Chieftains except Glencoe descended from John of Islay are indeed of Norse lineage. Evidence that Somerled himself was Norse comes from families named MacEachern and MacAlasdair and the MacDonalds of Ardnamurchan. The DNA profile for membership in this line is definitive. :Crest: On a crest-coronet Or, a hand in armour fessways couped at the elbow proper, holding a cross-crosslet fitchee, gules.

Somerled's defeat of the Norse King of Man in 1156 gained independence for southwestern Scotland that survived for over four centuries.
Somerled and his descendants ruled the west coast of the Highlands and Islands and were referred to by the title ''"Lord of the Isles"''. The Lordship came came to an end in 1493 when John MacDonald forfeited his land and titles to James IV of Scotland.

Hugh died before August 1498 and buried on North Uist. He is said to have had six sons by as many different mothers. His eldest, John, inherited the Clan Huistein Lands. John died w/o issue in 1505 and was succeeded by half brother Donald Gallach for only about a year before he was treacherously murdered by Gilleasbuig Dubh, another of Hugh's sons. Donald Gallach fought in the battle of Bloody Bay in 1484. There were multiple murders among the brothers and a period of significant lawlessness in the early 1500s. North Uist - The lands of North Uist, along with others situated in South Uist, Benbecula and Sleat, were granted to Hugh Macdonald of Sleat by his brother John then Lord of the Isles on 28 June 1449 followed by a royal charter from James IV for same on 10 Nov 1495. Donald Gorm Mor transferred the lands in South Uist and Benbecula to Clanranald in 1610. He appears to hand off quite a bit of the family's land possibly out of anger toward his many half-brothers. North Uist remained in the possession of Hugh's line from 1469 to 1855, when it was sold by the 4th Baron MacDonald. ==Clan Cadets== Work in progress for formatting (in order of seniority) 1.

Niece of the 30th Chief. Succeeded her Aunt in 1990. '''Clan MacDougall''' Clan MacDougall is one of the four oldest Highland Clans still in existence. The McDougall family has been traced to Girvan, Ayrshire in Scotland and was settled here for many generations. In the late 1800's they began to disperse to other parts of Scotland and ultimately the world. My own branch of this family settled in Glasgow for several generations before some migrated to Australia and North America. The spelling of the McDougall name has seen several variations, but it is interesting to note that the earlier records in Girvan relate to the name Dougal. The surname is an anglicized from the old Gaelic "MacDubhaghaill"a name derived from a paternal ancestor "Dubhgall". The surname is composed of the elements "dubish" (black or dark) and gall ( stranger). This was frequently used as a byname for Scandinavians, in particular to distinguish the dark haired Danes from fair-haired Norwegians. Variations in the Spelling of McDougal included: MacDougal, MacDougall, McDougall, MacDougald Mac or Mc means :son" of while the term "Clan" comes from the Gaelic words for children. Thus Clan McDougal signifies the children of Dougal.

The castle was seat of the family of M'Dowall of Garthland. *Logan Castle: In 1295 the McDouall family were granted lands in the Kirkmaiden Wigtownshire area by King John Balliol son of their half-sister, Dervorgilla, and built a stronghold at Castle Balzieland, which apparently burned down in about 1500. Today only the stump of one corner of this ancient castle still stands, as a spectacular ornament in the walled garden. The family moved to another residence close by, before building the current Logan House in AD1702. In about 1800 a walled kitchen garden was built to service Logan House, incorporating the remains of Castle Balzieland. James McDouall, Laird of Logan married Agnes Buchan-Hepburn and Agnes passed on her love of gardening to her their sons, Kenneth and Douglas. In 1949, after about 700 years, the Logan estate passed out of McDouall / McDowell family han '''See Also:''' * ---- Add your ancestor here, see [[Using_Categories|Using Categories]].

After the death of MacBeth, Malcolm III of Scotland seized the Crown and his son Aedh married the daughter of Queen Gruoch. Aedh was created Earl of Fife and abbot of Abernethy. The early chiefs of Clan MacDuff were the Earls of Fife. Sir Iain Moncreiffe wrote that the Clan MacDuff was the premier clan among the Scottish Gaels. Today the Earls of Wemyss are thought to be the descendants in the male line of Gille Míchéil, Earl of Fife, thought to be one of the first Clan MacDuff chiefs. Gille-michael MacDuff was one of the witnesses to the great charter of David I of Scotland to Dunfermline Abbey. {| border="1" class="wikitable" ! Crest Badge ! Clan MacDuff

As a result when she fell into the hands of King Edward's army she was imprisoned in a cage which was suspended from the walls of Berwick Castle. Duncan MacDuff later married Mary, the niece of King Edward and threw in his lot against the Bruce. However he was captured and imprisoned in Kildrummy Castle where he died in 1336. The Earldom later fell into the hands of Robert Stewart, Duke of Albany, however although the MacDuff family lost their rank they continued to prosper. In 1384 the earl of Fife was described as capitalis legis de Clenmcduffe, meaning chief of the law of Clan MacDuff. In 1404 David Duff received a charter from Robert III of Scotland for lands in Banffshire. ==17th, 18th and 19th centuries== In 1626 John Duff sold the lands in Bannfshire which his ancestor had acquired in 1404. The title of The Fife returned with William Duff, 1st Earl Fife and Viscount Macduff in 1759. James Duff, 4th Earl of Fife fought with distinction in the Peninsular War where he was wounded at the Battle of Talavera in 1809 and was later made a Knight of the Order of St Ferdinand of Spain. Alexander Duff, 6th Earl of Fife married Louise, Princess Royal, eldest daughter of Edward VII. Alexander was advanced to the rank of Duke of Fife in July 1889. ==20th and 21st centuries== With the death of the 1st Duke of Fife, the Clan MacDuff had its last Chief. As of 2014, the representative that should eventually succeed to its Headship is, according to thepeerage.com, James Richard Valentine Duff, born on 19 October 1941. ==Septs:== Duff, Fife, Fyfe, Clan Kilgour (Kilgore), Spence, Spens, Wemyss.

'''Names associated with the clan:''' '''See Also:''' '''Clan MacFarlane''' The clan claims a descent from the old line of the Earls of Lennox. For some time there had been some controversy as to the descent of these earls, with both Gaelic and Anglo-Saxon origins given. Though today it is accepted that Clan MacFarlane is of Gaelic descent. The clan takes its name from a Malcolm MacFarlane, who lived in the fourteenth century. Clan MacFarlane took part in several conflicts including brutal fighting for Scottish Independence alongside Robert The Bruce. The clan was also noted for its daring night time cattle raiding of neighboring clan lands, (particularly those of Clan Colquhoun),and as such, it is said that the full moon became known throughout the highlands as "MacFarlane's Lantern".For many years Clan MacFarlane was one of the most respected and feared clans in the highlands until the clan was denounced by the English government. The ancestral lands of the clan were Arrochar, located at the head of Loch Long and further northwest of Loch Lomond. The lands of Arrochar were first granted to an ancestor of the clan in the thirteenth century, and were held by the chiefs until they were sold off for debts, in 1767. The last descendant of the chiefs, in the direct male line, died in 1886. Since the modern clan is without a chief it can be considered an Armigerous clan.http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Clan_MacFarlane

R. McIan from The Clans of the Scottish Highlands published in 1845. The MacGillivray clan was first accurately recorded in Dunmaglass in 1549.[6] In 1609, there was a great gathering of the Chattan Confederation, at which loyalties were given to the Mackintosh chief, and the haill kin and race of MacGillivray was represented by Malcolm MacGillivray of Dalcrombie and Duncan MacGillivray of Dunmaglass.[6] The MacGillivrays were persecuted by their Calvinist and Presbyterian neighbors owing to their support of Episcopal polity of the church.[6] 18th century & Jacobite risings Edit Along with most of the other clans of the Chattan Confederation, the MacGillivrays were staunch Jacobites in both the Jacobite rising of 1715 and the Jacobite rising of 1745.[6] During the 1745 rising, the chief of Mackintoshes and clan Chattan was however a serving officer in the Black Watch regiment of the British Army, but his wife, Lady Anne Mackintosh (née Farquharson), rallied the Chattan Confederation in support of the Jacobites and placed chief Alexander MacGillivray in command of the clan Chattan regiment.[6] Alexander MacGillivray was killed leading his clan at the Battle of Culloden in 1746 along with many of his followers.[6] A graveyard at Dunlichity commemorates the many MacGillivrays who fell in the battle.[6] After Culloden, many MacGillivrays emigrated across the Atlantic, where many of them were successful, particularly as traders.[6] *Wikipedia ===Other Names Associated with the Clan=== Many Spellings ==Allied Clans== Chattan Confederation ===Rival Clans=== Clan Cameron ==Clan Research and Free Space Pages== https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Clan_MacGillivray ===Source Material=== https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Clan_MacGillivray ===Image Credits and Acknowledgements=== https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Clan_MacGillivray

Outlawed for nearly two hundred years after losing their lands in a long power struggle with the Clan Campbell, the Clan Gregor claims descent from Constantin and wife and cousin Malvina , first son of Doungallas and wife Spontana (daughter of a High King of Ireland) and grandson of Giric, the third son of Alpín mac Echdach, the father of Kenneth MacAlpin, the first King of Scotland, a descent which is proclaimed in the motto, 'S Rioghal Mo Dhream, translated as Royal is my Race.http://genealogy.euweb.cz/brit/macalpine.htmlhttp://www.electricscotland.com/webclans/m/macgreg2.html :Origins of Clan Gregor: The surname MacGregor is an Anglicisation of the Gaelic Mac Griogair meaning "son of Griogar". The personal name Griogar is a Gaelic form of the personal name Gregory. McGregor Name Meaning and History". Ancestry.com :The Clan Gregor is believed to have originated in Scotland during the 800s. The MacGregor's suggest that they take their name from Gregor (derived from the Latin 'Gregorius' and the Late-Greek 'Gregorios' which means "Alert, Watchful, or Vigilant"). Gregor is said to be a son of the Scottish king Alpin II Mac Eochaidh and younger brother of Kenneth MacAlpin, the now famous Scottish king who first united Scotland in A.D. 843. Alpin II was the son of Eochaidh VI 'the Poisonous,' High King of Scots, by his marriage to his cousin, the Pictish Princess Royal, and thus had claims to the Scottish and Pictish Thrones. {{Image|file=Clan_MacGregor-3.jpg |caption=Alpin family line }} :Alpin was defeated and allegedly beheaded in his attempt to gain the Pictish Throne. His son, Kenneth, was successful, taking advantage of Viking harassment of the Picts from the east. While there is no surviving concrete record of a younger 'Prince Gregor', the Gregg Family website claims that an ancient Latin record of the Alpinian family mentions a Gregor who was a commander in the army of Kenneth Mac Alpin. Kenneth had a least one other known brother, Donald, who succeeded him as king of Scots. Unfortunately, most of the early public records of Scotland were destroyed by order of the English King Edward Plantagenet, during his occupation of Scotland at the end of the 13th century. :A Victorian era, romanticised depiction of a member of the clan by R. R. McIan, from The Clans of the Scottish Highlands, published in 1845. It was not unusual for the Mac Alpin kings to give Latin or Scandinavian names to their sons. Typical examples are Constantine, named after the famous Roman Emperor, and Indulf, named after a Viking leader. Gregor would probably have been named after the famous Pope Gregory 'the Great' (Gregorius). :The Y-chromosomal data supports the Alpinian royal claim as the hierarchical family Y-DNA is consistent with that of the other clans claiming similar descent. The data supports descent from the Dalriadic kings. Historians have suggested the clan descends from Griogair, son of Dungal, who is said to have been a co-ruler of Alba, an area of north central Scotland, between AD 879 and 889. The Y-DNA data does not support this second contention."MacGregor information from Electric Scotland"MacGregor history from ScotsClans.com" :In very early times the land on both sides of Glen Lyon as far south as Loch Awe, belonged to the MacGregor Clan, and there is every likelihood that the clansmen had a Keep of some kind on the site of Meggernie Castle, as this would command the whole district. The MacGregors claimed to be descended from Alpin, King of Scots, and were sometimes known by the cognomen of Clan Alpin or Mac Alpin. Their motto to this day asserts a lofty origin, as the Gaelic S’rioghal Mo Dhream signifies, "My Race is Royal." The statement has been made that a MacGregor chief built the Castle of Coalchuirn (sometimes spelled Kilchurn) on Loch Awe, but this is not well founded. The clan suffered misfortune at the hands of their two neighbours, the Campbells of Argyll and the Stewarts of Cardney. The MacGregors had been vassals of the Earl of Ross in the time of Alexander II., who reigned from 1214 till 1249, and the Earl bestowed upon them the lands of Glenorchay, at the head of Loch Awe which they had chosen as a residence, and which became their headquarters. The clan became a powerful one, and took a prominent share in the Battle of Bannockburn. But David II., the son of Robert Bruce, forgot his obligation to the Clan Gregor, and deprived them of Glenorchay, which he gave to the branch of the Campbells that had settled at Loch Awe, and the dispossessed clansmen had to retire to the Muir of Rannoch. The policy of the Campbells had long been one of lawless acquisition, and they drove the MacGregors out of Glen Lyon and seized upon their property. http://www.electricscotland.com/history/castles/meggernie.htm? :The Clan Gregor held lands in Glen Orchy, Glenlochy and Glenstrae. According to Iain Moncreiffe the MacGregors were descended from an ancient Celtic royal family, through the Abbots of Glendochart. This is alluded to in the clan's motto: "Royal is my race". There is a tradition that Gregor was the son of Kenneth MacAlpin, which is supported by the Scottish historian, William Forbes Skene, but there is no evidence to support this tradition. It is possible that he might have been Griogair, son of Dungal, who was allegedly co-ruler of Alba. :Most modern historians have agreed that the first chief of Clan Gregor was Gregor of the golden bridles. His son was Iain Camm One eye, who succeeded as the second chief sometime before 1390. :The barony of Loch Awe which included much of the MacGregor lands was granted to the chief of Clan Campbell by Robert the Bruce. The Campbells had already built Kilchurn Castle which controlled the gateway to the western Highlands and they harried the MacGregors who were forced to retire deeper into their lands until they were restricted to Glenstrae. ===16th century and clan conflicts=== :Iain of Glenstrae died in 1519 with no direct heirs. He was the second of his house to be called the Black. The succession of Eian was supported by the Campbells and he married a daughter of Sir Colin Campbell of Glenorchy. In 1547 Eian's son, Alistair, fought against the English at the Battle of Pinkie Cleugh but died shortly after.http://www.thepeerage.com/p50407.htm#i504062 :Colin Campbell refused to recognise the claim of Gregor Roy MacGregor to the estates and for ten years Gregor waged a war against the Campbells. He was an outlaw who raided cattle and sheltered in the high glens. However in 1570 he was captured and killed by the Campbells. The chiefship was claimed by his son, Alistair, but he was unable to stem the Campbell's persecution of the MacGregors who became known as the Children of the Mist. :John Drummond, of Clan Drummond was the king's forester and he was murdered after hanging some MacGregors for poaching. The chief took responsibility for the murder and it was condemned by the Privy Council. ===17th century, clan conflicts and civil war=== :In 1603 Alasdair MacGregor marched into Colquhoun territory with a force of over four hundred men. The chief of Clan Colquhoun had been granted a royal commission to suppress the MacGregors. Colquhoun assembled a force of five hundred foot and three hundred horse and advanced to Glen Fruin to repel the Highland raiders.[4] MacGregor split his force in two and while the main MacGregor force and the Colquhouns engaged in combat the second MacGregor force attacked the Colquhouns from the rear. The Colquhouns were driven into the Moss of Auchingaich where their cavalry was useless and over two hundred Colquhouns were killed.[4] At the end of the eighteenth century the chiefs of the two clans met and shook hands on the very site of the former slaughter. :James VI of Scotland issued an edict in April 1603 that proclaimed the name of MacGregor as altogidder abolisheed. This meant that anyone who bore the name must renounce it or suffer death. In 1604 MacGregor and eleven of his chieftains were hanged at Mercat Cross, Edinburgh. As a result the Clan Gregor was scattered with many taking other names such as Murray or Grant. They were hunted like animals and flushed out of the heather by bloodhounds. :An Edinburgh burgess, Robert Birrel, who kept a diary of events at the time, described the episode thus: :"[MacGregor] wes convoyit to Berwick be the Gaird to conforme to the Earl's promese: for he promesit to put him out of Scottis grund. Swa [so] he keipit ane Hieland-manis promes; in respect he sent the Gaird to convoy him out of Scottis grund: But thai were not directit to pairt with him, but to fetche him bak agane! The 18 Januar, at evine [evening], he come agane to Edinburghe; and upone the 20-day he wes hangit at the Croce, and xj [eleven] of his freindis and name, upon ane gallous: Himself being Chieff, he wes hangit his awin hicht aboune the rest of hes freindis." :An Act of the Scottish Parliament from 1617 stated[6] (translated into modern English): "It was ordained that the name of MacGregor should be abolished and that the whole persons of that name should renounce their name and take some other name and that they nor none of their name and that they nor none of their posterity should call themselves Gregor or MacGregor under pain of death .... that any person or persons of the said clan who has already renounced their names or hereafter shall renounce their names or if any of their children or posterity shall at any time hereafter assume or take to themselves the name of Gregor or MacGregor .... that every such person or persons assuming or taking to themselves the said name .... shall incurr the pain of death which pain shall be executed upon them without favour." :Despite the savage treatment of the MacGregors they actually fought for the king during the Scottish Civil War. Two hundred men of the Clan Gregor fought for the Earl of Glencairn in what was known as Glencairn's rising, against the Commonwealth. In recognition of this Charles II of England repealed the proscription of the name but William of Orange reimposed it when Charle's brother James VII was deposed. ===18th century and Jacobite risings=== :Rob Roy MacGregor was born in 1671, a younger son of MacGregor of Glengyle. However he had been forced to assume his mother's surname of Campbell. The adventures of Rob Roy MacGregor have been immortalised and romanticised by Sir Walter Scott in his novel Rob Roy. Rob Roy was undoubtedly a thorn in the flesh of the government until he died in 1734. He supported the Jacobite cause in 1715 and after the Battle of Sheriffmuir he set out plundering at will. In one such raid on Dunbarton, the town was put into panic and Dunbarton Castle was forced to open fire with its cannon. He also led the Clan Gregor at the Battle of Glen Shiel in 1719. He is buried in Balquhidder churchyard. :During the 1745 to 1746 uprising some of the Clan Gregor who were under the Duke of Perth fought as Jacobites at the Battle of Prestonpans in 1745. The Clan Gregor were amongst the Jacobite force that was defeated at the Battle of Littleferry in 1746 in Sutherland,http://freepages.genealogy.rootsweb.ancestry.com/~pfwilson/d0003/g0000389.html#I00249 and therefore missed the Battle of Culloden that took place the next day.Way, George and Squire, Romily. Collins Scottish Clan & Family Encyclopedia :Persecution of the MacGregors did not end until 1774 when the laws against them were repealedhttps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Clan_Gregor ===19th century and restored clan=== :To restore pride in the clan the chiefs needed to be re-established. Eight hundred and twenty six MacGregors subscribed to a petition declaring General John Murray of Lanrick to be the true chief. Murray was in fact a MacGregor who was descended from Duncan MacGregor of Ardchoille who had died in 1552.

What exists today was assembled in 1885 at the instigation of William Gladstone (1809-98), Prime Minister and Member of Parliament for Midlothian, who also paid for the work. It incorporates parts of the original early 15th Century Mercat Cross. The unicorn finial was the work of sculptor John Rhind (1828-92). :The old Mercat Cross stood nearby from 1617 following a reconstruction involving John Mylne (d.1621). As well as being the focus for official announcements and business dealings, the Mercat Cross was a place of execution; notably of James Graham, the Marquess of Montrose (1650) and Archibald Campbell, the Marquess of Argyll (1661). :The cross had been dispensed with in 1756, perhaps because it was from here that Prince Charles Edward Stuart proclaimed his father as true monarch in 1745. It was removed as a trophy to Drum House in the south of the city, although the shaft was broken in the process. This old cross was retrieved and restored before being placed on the octagonal platform which was created by Sydney Mitchell (1856 - 1930), a somewhat larger version of the original. A replica of the Cross can still be found in the grounds of Drum House.( http://www.scottish-places.info/features/featurefirst7856.html ) ====A wee note from Chris & Shawna McGregor:==== :"Here is the geneology of William Mcgregor of Osian's glen or there abouts: :William sr had three known sons William jr, and twins named Ezekiel and Willis.

Newton Ezekiel "( http://www.thefullwiki.org/Clan_Gregor ) ====The Ulster-Scots Society of America; Immigrants From The North Of Ireland==== :"This is about a group of immigrants from the north of Ireland in the 18th Century who came to be known as the Scotch-Irish, which is a completely American term and very misleading--since very few of the people in this migration had any Irish blood at all. To understand who these people really were, a brief history lesson is needed. Over a period of several centuries, there was almost constant war between England and Scotland. The battles took place in the border counties of both countries and the people who lived there, whether English or Scottish, were living in a war zone. This made their lives quite different than anywhere else in the British Isles; they had much more in common with each other than with the rest of England or the rest of Scotland. The men were very warrior-like and often away at battle. They lived with constant economic oppression because soldiers trampled their crops, rustlers stole their livestock, taxes were high, and wages were low. The border kept changing; sometimes both countries claimed the border counties at once. Eventually, many of these went to the north of Ireland during the great Plantation period of the 17th century, settling in the province of Ulster. In the period between 1717 and 1775, these descendants of people from the English and Scottish Border lands (also known as “borderers”) came into the port at Philadelphia in great numbers. They came from the Ulster counties of Donegal, Derry, Down, Armagh, Antrim, and Tyrone.. A few native Irish came with them, but most of the people in this migration were of English or Scottish extraction who had been in Ireland at least four generations. When they arrived, their behavior, dress, and speech patterns were so very different from those people (mostly Quakers) already living in Pennsylvania that they were rejected, ridiculed, and called "Scotch-Irish"--a derogatory term used to be certain nobody would think they were English! :The reason for this migration was much different than previous immigrants. The yearning for religious freedom was there, but for the most part it involved the pursuit of material betterment. They were not the poorest of the poor (those people didn't have enough money to migrate) but they were mostly from the economic lower class. They were farmers and semi-skilled craftsmen. They were of mixed religious backgrounds. The largest number were Presbyterian, but there were Anglicans and other Protestant Denominations represented as well. In spite of their poverty, they were a very proud people--and this was a source of further irritation to their neighbors. They settled in the "back- country" of Pennsylvania and, when the roads to the south began to open, they left and went down into the Shenandoah Valley of Virginia. They continued to follow this pattern of living in the "back country" for years, going first into the Carolinas, then into Tennessee and Kentucky, then further west to Missouri, Arkansas, Texas, and Oklahoma (If this was the migratory pattern of your ancestors, they may have been Scotch-Irish). :Family life was different for these immigrants from the north of Ireland . They lived mostly in nuclear families, but the extended family was much more extended than for most other people. The family extended out for 4 generations and connected one nuclear family to another and one generation to the next. This group was somewhat like a Highland clan. “Clans” tended to live and move together. This was the way in the borderlands of England and Scotland and it continued to be the way in the north of Ireland as well as in the back country of America. These descendants of “Borderers” had large families just like the Puritans. The age at marriage was much younger than in any of the groups of British immigrants. The average age for men was 21 and for women 19. Weddings were wild affairs, full of ritual, and costly. Sometimes brides were abducted, usually (but not always) willingly. First cousins often married to "keep it in the clan". There was a shortage of clergy in the back country and sometimes couples got tired of waiting. Premarital pregnancies were common. But they were not thought to be scandalous. They often made a joke of it! Family life was very different. Men were warriors and women were workers. For generations these men had to be warriors in the old countries of Scotland, England and Ireland. The pattern didn't change just because they migrated to America. The most important possessions for a man were his gun and his horse. In any society where the men go off to war, the women do much more heavy labor at home. This was true for these Scotch-Irish as well. In these families, the women labored in the fields right beside their husbands. Families were male dominant; women and children were supposed to obey. These families also had a strange mix of love and violence in their homes. And feuds between extended families sometimes occurred. :They brought their Borderers child-naming practices with them. There was a pattern but they were the least likely group to follow it. The pattern in this male dominant society was for the two eldest sons to be named after their grandfathers and the third son after his father. They also used Biblical names (John the most common), Teutonic names (Richard or Robert the most common), names of Border saints, such as Andrew, Patrick, or David, Celtic names, such as Ewan/Owen, Barry, or Roy, names from other cultures, such as Ronald or Archibald, names of Scottish Kings, such as Alexander, Charles, or James, names of brave border warriors, such as Wallace, Bruce, Perry, or Howard, place names, such as Ross, Clyde, Carlisle, Tyne or Derry. Sometimes they made up names or feminized family names and gave them to their daughters (i.e. Hoyt=Hoyette). The most common names for girls were the same as in all 3 of the other groups of English immigrants--Mary, Elizabeth and Sarah. There were also some naming taboos: they did not use Scottish Highlander names, such as Douglas, Donald, Kenneth, Ian, or Stewart; they did not use Irish Gaelic names, such as Sean, Kathleen, Maureen, or Sheila. :Child-rearing practices in the back country were very different. Scotch-Irish parents were highly indulgent and permissive. Socialization began at birth. Children, especially boys, were taught to exercise their wills. They doted on their male children, who were reared to have fierce pride, stubborn independence, and a warrior's courage. Girls were taught the domestic virtues of patience, industry, sacrifice, and devotion to others. Men shared in the care of their children from infancy. Corporal punishment was often used."( http://www.electricscotland.com/history/ulster_scots/ulster3.htm ) ====The Ulster-Scots Society of America; The Great Migration from Ulster to America==== :"The Great Migration from the north of Ireland (Ulster) to America began in 1717. In some instances Ulster families had immigrated to the New World before 1717, but those instances were few and isolated. :Some families left Ulster in search of religious freedom, but most left in response to economic hardships. The English Parliament began to impose trade restrictions on the manufacture and sale of woolen articles in the late-1690s. Up to that time, Ulster had thrived on her wool and linen industries and had prospered more than any other province in Ireland. The arrival of the French Huguenots (French Reformed Church) in the 1680s to Ulster had strengthened her already strong wool industry by introducing some new methods for the manufacture of linen from flax. The prosperity Ulster was experiencing was seen as a threat by the English who, in 1698, petitioned the King to protect their own interests. The Irish Parliament, at the King's urging, passed the Woolens Act in the following year. The Woolens Act prohibited the exportation of Irish wool and cloth to anywhere except England and Wales. The Woolens Act resulted in a period of economic depression throughout Ulster. :Coupled with the economic hardships spawned by the Woolens Act, was a legal practice known as rack-renting which was instituted in the early-1700s. Rack-renting was the practice whereby a renter could legally raise the rent when a lease had run out. Although that practice does not seem unusual in this day and age, it was quite a departure from the traditional practice during the Seventeenth and Eighteenth Centuries. The traditional practice was for a lease to run approximately thirty years with the option of being renewed at the same rate. The renter would be inclined to improve the property under the assumption that he would be able to reside there indefinitely and then pass the lease on to his own sons. Money was hard to come by and rack-renting forced many renters to default on their payments. A widespread hatred of the practice and those landlords who employed it swept through Ulster. Having received favorable reports from others who had gone to America, many families resolved to leave Ireland. :The final development which led to the Great Migration came in the form of a severe drought that stretched from 1714 to 1719. The drought affected not only food crops, but also hindered the growing of flax and thereby adversely affected the linen industry. Lack of sufficient grass for grazing, and the disease known as rot, killed the sheep needed by the wool industry. Most Ulster families came because of the droughts and the failing economy in their homeland. Altogether, nearly 250,000 people, mostly Protestant and primarily the descendants of Lowland/Border Scots and Northern English who had settled in Ulster earlier, left Ulster and sailed for America between 1717 and 1775. They initially chose the colony of Pennsylvania as their destination but later moved on to the southern colonies in search of cheaper land. Their contribution to the founding of our republic was incalculable."( http://www.electricscotland.com/history/ulster_scots/ulster4.htm ), ( http://www.electricscotland.com/history/ulster_scots/index.htm )

Masters, MacMaster and variants are of the Clan. To this day there are 157 variants of the spelling of the name 'MacInnes' including spellings with Mc, Mac, and the occasional G. The name “Innes” is often linked to MacInnes. Innes originally has a later origin in Moray, but a number of people with the surname "MacInnes" dropped the "Mac", in common with holders of other Mac- names, during times when it was unfavourable to be identified as a Gaelic speaker. '''See Also:''' * http://www.electricscotland.com/webclans/m/macinne.html * http://www.macinnes.org/ Clan MacInnes ancestors were among the early inhabitants of Islay, Jura and the Kintyre peninsula in Scotland, generally part of the region known as Argyll. These Scotti, a Celtic, Gaelic-speaking people, first appear there as settlers from Ireland in c. 500 when Fergus Mór, king of the north Irish kingdom of Dál Riata, and his two brothers, Loarn and Óengus, expanded their lands into southwestern Alba. Óengus had already established a colony on Islay and/or Jura and was the master of ships for the new Kingdom. Óengus (Angus) is considered to be the first of the MacInnes Clan and is thought to be buried on Iona. Dalriada quickly grew in influence and strength, and eventually overran the indigenous Pictish peoples and their culture. The area then became known as Scotland after these Scotti immigrants. Expansion and decline It is believed that MacInneses lived on Iona with Columba. Oengus and his descendants would have exploited their seagoing skills and ventured to Iona at an early time. Iona is the final resting-place of many MacInneses and lore says that Columba selected the site whereupon the Kiel Church now stands in Lochaline near Kinlochaline Castle, the castle built by the MacInneses. During the 9th century the clan moved out of the western isles and into Argyll (Morvern and Ardgour). This was most likely as a result of constant Viking raids in the islands. By the early 12th century MacInnes people were well established in all of Morvern (the peninsula bounded by Loch Sunart and Loch Linnhe and adjacent to the Isle of Mull). The traditional seat of the Chiefs of Clan MacInnes was established there in Kinlochaline Castle. As the Viking raids continued to terrorize their lands the MacInneses became members of an alliance known as Siol Gillebride (Seed of the Servant of St. Bride) along with MacGillivrays, MacMasters and MacEacharns somewhat in the manner of Clan Chattan, under the leadership of the Celtic-Norse warrior Somerled (killed in 1164, often referred to as Somerled MacGillebride, and his father was believed to be a MacAonghais Chief). Somerled’s grandson was the first of Clan Donald (McDougall and McDonald clans). :"Chief of MacInnes sought Somerled to seek his aid. A skilled warrior, Somerled agreed to help them if they would follow his directions completely. He told them to kill and skin a herd of longhaired highland cattle, and to then march their normally kilt-clad fighters in plain sight of the invading Vikings. Next they were to dress in the cowhides with the long hair turned outwards and march again before their enemies; then a third time they were to march in front of the Vikings, but this time wearing the hides turned skin side out. The MacInnes men followed his advice. The Vikings were fooled into thinking the MacInneses had three times their actual fighting strength. They turned and fled the “overwhelming numbers” and many were slain. In thanks to Somerled, the MacInnes’ vowed to become his vassals." In the mid 14th century, the last chief of Clan MacInnes was killed, along with his sons, by order of John of Islay, Lord of the Isles. Chief MacInnes had advised John to divorce his wife, Amy MacRuari, and marry the daughter of future king Robert II of Scotland. Amy got revenge by telling John that MacInnes had complained that, while being lodged at John's residence, his quarters stank because they were used as a dog's kennel. Enraged, John ordered Donald, son of Lachlan MacLean, to kill MacInnes. These murders were carried out in Castle Ardtornish on the Sound of Mull, and as a reward Clan MacLean were deeded the lands and castle of Ardgour. Clan MacInnes remains without a Chief, and many of the clan scattered to Appin, Craignish, Lochaber and Skye, but some of the clan continued to occupy the castle.[[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Clan_MacInnes]] or here [[http://www.electricscotland.com/webclans/index.html 2]]

Ivor, the ancestor of the clan, was the son of Duncan, Lord of Lochow. The clan was a branch of the great Siol Diarmid or [https://www.wikitree.com/wiki/Space:Clan_Campbell Clan Campbell] and is now an Armigerous clan, no longer having a chief. The original lands of MacIver were Lergachonzie, Asnish and others in Cowal, spreading out into Argyleshire, Caithness and Inverness. This Scottish clan is recognised by the Lord Lyon King of Arms. The clan name of MacIver is of Gaelic origin, derived from an Old Norse personal name. Various forms of the surname MacIver, like MacGiver, are considered sept names (followers or members) of several historically large Scottish clans, such as clans Campbell and Mackenzie. There exists a Clan Iver society in Fife, Scotland. In 1564 Archibald, fifth Earl of Argyll, he who commanded Queen Mary’s forces at the battle of Langside, recognised the separate authority of the Maclver chiefs. By formal deed the Earl resigned all direct claim upon the Maclver dependants. The document declared that the Earl relinquished for ever, to his cousin Iver Maclver and his successors, of "his awin frie motife, uncompellit, and for special cause and favours," all "ryght, title, and kyndnes, quhatsomever, we, or our predecessoris had, has, or in any manner of way may claim, of the calpis aucht and wont to come to our house, of the surname of MacEver, with power to use, uplift, intromit, and uptak the said calpis to thair awin utilitie and profit; and to dispone thairupon as they sail think expedient, as anie uther freehalder, and as we was wont to do of before, providing that we haif the said Ever’s calpe." The "calpe," it should perhaps be mentioned, was a death duty, in the shape of a horse, cow, ox, or other chattel, payable to a chief out of the possessions of a deceased clansman. The fact that the calpe of Maclver himself remained to be paid to Argyll, was an acknowledgment that the Maclvers were a branch or sept of the Campbell clan. The MacIvers were great favorites of the house of Argyle, from whom they held several posts of trust and honor, as the Keeping of the castle of Inverary. ===Clan Motto=== Nunquam obliviscar (translation from Latin: I will never forget). ===MacIver Tartan=== There is little evidence to account for this tartan, and it is thought to be of relatively recent origin. ===Clan Castle=== Glendarroch is about two miles south-west of Lochgilphead in Argyll and is also known as the Robber's Den and Kilduskland. The site is defended on two sides by gorges and also by a rock cut ditch. There are also the remains of two buildings. It is reputedly the refuge of bandits and is said to have been used by the MacIvers in the seventeenth century. ===Family Tree DNA McIver Project=== "''The [https://www.familytreedna.com/groups/mciver/about McIver Clan] has a very interesting history dating back to the 12th century. In the 1700’s when many early McIver’s emigrated from Scotland to America, the language they spoke was Gaelic. McIver in Gaelic is spelled MacIomhair. “Mac” means “son of” and “Iomhair” is the Gaelic name that resulted in the English version, “Iver.” Thus, the name means “son of Iver.” Today in Scotland, the “son of” prefix is still written as “Mac,” while Americans generally use the shorter form, “Mc.” In earlier years, it was frequently written simply as M+apostrophe, as in M’Iver. Until 1828 when the first Webster’s dictionary was published, it was acceptable to spell words and names as they sounded, leading to many variations of spellings, even among relatives. Among the MacIver derivations are MacIvor, McIver, Iverach, and Ure. Spelling variations we have seen are McKeever, McEevor, McEivor, and McIvor. The Danish and Norwegian version is Iverson, and the Swedish version is Ivarsson or Iwarsson. We welcome and encourage participation in this Project by all descendants of MacIver, regardless of name spelling or pronunciation."'' Family Tree DNA McIver Project ===S.S.

Hereditary Chief of the Name and Arms of Clan Mackay. ===Clan Summary=== Clan Mackay (Gaelic: Mac Aoidh) is an ancient and once-powerful Scottish clan from the far North of the Scottish Highlands, but with roots in the old kingdom of Moray. They supported Robert the Bruce during the Wars of Scottish Independence in the 14th century. In the centuries that followed they were anti-Jacobite. The territory of the Clan Mackay consisted of the parishes of Farr, Tongue, Durness and Eddrachillis, and was known as Strathnaver, in the north-west of the county of Sutherland. However it was not until 1829 that Strathnaver was considered part of Sutherland when the chief sold his lands to the Earls of Sutherland and the Highland Clearances then had dire consequences for the clan. In the 17th century the Mackay chief's territory had extended to the east to include the parish of Reay in the west of the neighboring county of Caithness. The chief of the clan is Lord Reay and the lands of Strathnaver later became known as the Reay Country. [[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Clan_Mackay 1]] '''Name and Names''' There is controversy surrounding the origin of the name and the name appears in many forms. The records of time suggest the Strathnaver or northern MacKays appear as Makky, Macky, Maky, Mckye, Mckeye, Maekie, Mckie, Mackey, but the commonest form was McKy and later, Mackay. The Islay MacKays, whose Charter in Gaelic, of eleven and a half merk lands from Donald Macdonald, Lord of the Isles, in 1408 appear as McCei, McAy, etc. The MacKays of Garachty in Bute, one of whom, John McGe, witnessed a document, 10th Mar. 1540, as Sheriff of Bute, appear as Makkay, Makkee, and even Makcawe, but from 1515 on appear as Mackaw. The MacKays of Ugadale, who were erowners (position equivalent to sheriff) of north Kintyre held their lands of the Lords of the Isles as is stated in a charter of confirmation by the King, given 11th Aug. 1542, and possessed of the four merk lands of Ugadale and Arnigill in virtue of their office, appear as McKey, MaKKay, MaKKaye, but most commonly as McCay. The Galloway MacKays, of whom there were various families that held considerable estates in Wigton, Kirkcudbrightshire, etc., such as Camlodane, Balgarne, Craichlo, Mertoun, Balmagee, etc., appear as Makke, Makee, Makge, Makgee, Makgie, McGie, McGhie, and Mackghie, but towards the close of the 16th century they appear generally as McKie and McGhie. It is probable, and in the case of Mackays of Ugadale proven, that the various families are not derived from the same original source. It is more probable that the name was used in multiple locations around the same time; that is they are derived from a personal feature rather than a person. MacKay represents, in English, the Gaelic name MacAoidh, a compound of mac (son), and Aoidh the genitive of the proper name Aodh. Aodh frequently appears in the literature of the Gael as the name of Picts, Scots, and Irish; but its present aspirated form indicates a harder formation, aed, which indeed is found in earlier Irish writings, and is supposed to mean "the fiery or impetuous one". Thus '"the son of the fiery one". Some authorities have equated Aodh with Hugh, but this is generally no longer accepted. Hugh, which translates from the Gaelic Huistean, is generally represented in Latin documents by Hugo, while Aodh is transformed into Odo, Odoneus or Iye. There are occasions, for example, the family of [[Mackay-506|Donald Mackay]], 1st Lord Reay, whose first son was named Iye and his third Hew. '''Origin of the Clan''' The generally accepted origin, of the Strathnaver Mackays, and discussed in the work by Angus Mackay, is derived from the ''Blackcastle MS'' which claims that Iye Mackay, 1st chief of the Clan Mackay, who was born in about 1210, was a descendant of Malcolm MacHeth, 1st Earl of Ross who died in about 1168. Malcolm MacHeth, Earl of Ross may well have been related to the early rulers or Mormaers of Moray, thus giving rise to the association with Moray. According to Angus Mackay, sometime in the 1160s, the MacHeths and their supporters, after conflict with king Malcolm IV of Scotland fled northwards over the hills of Ross into Strathnaver, where they were welcomed by the Norse Harald Maddadsson, Mormaer of Caithness. In 1215 the MacHeths along with the MacWilliams retaliated against the king but were defeated by Fearchar, Earl of Ross and the grandson of Malcolm MacHeth, Kenneth MacHeth was killed. According to Angus Mackay it is possible that from this Kenneth MacHeth the Stathnaver Mackays are descended, and that Iye Mackay, 1st chief of Clan Mackay may well have been his son or nephew. According to the ''Blackcastle MS'' Iye Mackay's son was Iye Mor Mackay, 2nd chief of Clan Mackay who married a daughter of Walter, Bishop of Caithness in 1263. However, he later contradicts this by providing that Mackay was related to a Clan Morgan, appearing in the Book of Deer, as representing the Mormaer of Moray, around 1170. The Clan is thought to have been derived from "Clan Morgan" and this name was used by the Mackays of the Reay country who later became Clan Aoidh. Skene suggests they are derived from a Morgan, a British monk, was a follower of the [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pelagianism Pelagian heresy] in Britain. This name, Morgan, although popular in other parts of Britain, appears only in Aberdeenshire and Caithness. It is not clear whether this suggests they were followers of Morgan or sons of him as there is no use of the MacMorgan, rather Clan Morgan (family of Morgan; Christian family all encompassing). Angus Mackay suggests the name Morgan is derived from the Gaelic Mor, meaning sea; Morgan meaning "bright sea". The origin is debatable but the appearance, of Clan Morgan, in the [http://www.electricscotland.com/books/pdf/bookofdeeredfors00spaluoft.pdf Book of Deer] in Buchan around 1170 no doubt accounts for the apparent rapid rise of power in the name of Mackay. The same family existed but with another name; Morgan. The piece, in the Book of Deer, provides: "Colbain, mormaer of Buchan, and Eva, daughter of Gartnat, his wedded wife, and '''Donnachac, son of Sithech, toisech of Clann Morgainn''', immolated all the offerings to God and to Drostan and to Columcille and to Peter the apostle from all the burthens for a share of four davochs of what would come on the chief residences [monasteries] of Scotland generally and on chief churches. Witnesses; his Broccin, and Cormac, Abbot of Turbruaid, and Morgunn, son of Donnchad, and Gille Petair, son of Donnchad, and Malaechin and Matne's two sons, and the nobles of Buchan, all in witness hereof in Elan." Ellon was the ancient capital of Buchan; [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Colb%C3%A1n,_Earl_of_Buchan Colbain] the Mormaer in right of his wife Eva, the daughter of [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gartnait,_Earl_of_Buchan Gartnait], the previous Mormaer. We can date this to about 1170 as Colbain was in the Scottish army that invaded England with King William I of Scotland in 1174. The term was in use as late as the 17th Century when the ''Clan Ranald'' mss suggests that Donald Duabhail (dark stranger) MacKay was chief of the Clan Morgan. This was Donald, afterwards 1st Lord Reay, chief of the Strathnaver MacKays. He was until very recently known to the Gaelic-speaking Highlanders of Strathnaver as Donald Dughall. '''Relationship with [[:Category:Clan MacNeil|Clan MacNeil]]''' About 1290, just as Clan Mackay are starting to appear on the records of northern Scotland, the Clan Chief of the day, Donald, marries a daughter of lye MacNeil, son of Neil of Gigha, a relative of the MacNeil of Barra.the source of this information being Sir Robert Gordon; page 303 Gigha is a small island just off the Kintyre peninsula between the mainland and Islay. It would have been held by the MacNeil to the Lord of the Isles. Angus Mackay provides that "The distance to which Donald went in search of a wife, combined with the neighbourhood in which he found her, seem to indicate that there was at this time a close connection between the Mackays of Strathnaver and those of that name on the west coast of Argyle. We have found Mackays holding land in Kintyre at this early period, and there were others in the same quarter". The Mackay didn't hold land in that region at that time and it seems that Angus Mackay missed an opportunity based on a bias toward proving heritage from families in Moray. There was, certainly by 1320, Mackays living in and around Mull and Kintyre. They appear on record prior to those of Strathnaver, and, evidence suggests, that they formed part of the force at Bannockburn in 1314 under the Lord of the Isles and Bruce's reserve. They owned (?), lived close to the lands of MacNeil and it clearly illustrates a relationship between the two families. The name itself, Mackay, is derived from MacAoidh, son of Iye, a name popular amongst the MacNeil. It is noticeable that the name Mackay does not appear on record, in Strathnaver, prior to the son of the marriage between Donald and a daughter of Iye MacNeil. It does illustrate that there was a relationship between The MacNeil of Barra and the Mackay of Strathnaver just when the Mackay are starting to appear on the record of Strathnaver and Sutherland. This relationship becomes pronounced when, in 1430, Neil Neilson obtained from King James I., 20 Mar 1430, a charter of the lands of the Mackay lands of Creich, Gerloch, Daane, Moyzeblary, Croinzneorth, Tutumtarwauch, Langort and Amayde, in the Earldoms of Ross and Sutherland, escheated from his deceased brother, Thomas.Register of the Great Seal; vol 2, Charter no 147, page 32. In this Charter he is called Nigello Nelesoun. Legends of the clan suggest him to have been tha grandson of a chief of the Mackay but he may not have been. He will lead a coup, on the basis of title to the lands, against Clan Mackay which leads to the [[:Category: Battle of Drumnacoub|Battle of Drumnacoub]] where he, and his brother, are killed and his claims defeated. The justification for this war was a claim to the title and lands of, what we would now recognise as, Clan Mackay. This claim, not explored in any source material noticed, was on the basis of birth right. It seems possible that the relationship between the MacNeil and the Mackay may be closer than previously believed and is one that could be explored further. It may be that the Mackay of Strathnaver came from the Mackay of Kintyre and thus from Ireland, rather than from Moray. The origin of the Clan Mackay remains uncertain but what is known is that the Clan went from no records of that name in the 13th Century to one of the most powerful clans in the Highlands in 1411 when [[Mackay-1314|Angus Du Mackay]] was prepared to take on the might of [[Macdonald-273|Donald MacDonald]], Lord of the Isles, in his invasion of Scotland. He is said to have had 4000 men in the field at Dingwall and is often recorded as the most powerful Highland Chief after the MacDonald. '''Of Men and Wars''' The Clan was to produce men of considerable military genius. They will fight in nearly every European War. Starting with [[Mackay-506|Donald Mackay]], 1st Lord Reay, he raised a regiment of fifteen hundred men of his clan, which he carried over to Germany to the assistance of the king of Bohemia; taking a distinguished part in all foreign service of the time. He supported Charles I., during the Revolution and led 3600 men in support of King Christian IV. of Denmark at the battle for the Pass of Oldenburg. His Regiment, primarily made up of men of the Clan, earning themselves the name "the Invincible Scots" after suffering heavily and where he was wounded. They would appear in the service of the [[:Category: Scots in Norwegian Service|Denmark/Norwegian Alliance]], service to the [[:Category: Scots in Service of United Netherlands|United Netherlands]], where they form a large component of The Scots Brigade, and in service of [[:Category: Scots in Swedish Service|Sweden]]. Members of the Clan still remain within these territories. '''Source Material''' There are many sources for material relating to the genealogy of the early MacKay families. The two key main sources are: * [https://archive.org/details/historyofhousecl00mackuoft History of the house and clan of Mackay], containing for connection and elucidation, besides accounts of many other Scottish families, a variety of historical notices, more particularly of those relating to the northern division of Scotland during the most critical and interesting periods; with a genealogical table of the clan; by Robert Mackay, published 1829. * [https://archive.org/details/bookofmackay00mack The book of Mackay]; by Angus Mackay, M. A., published 1906. Of these the former was written at a time when Lord Reay, single and without children, was in the process of selling his estates and, as such, much of the material needed to complete the genealogical picture was lacking. Angus Mackay, with access to this material, called the "Reay Papers", tends to be a more reliable source. The early genealogy of the family, notably its origin from a certain Walter Forbes as progenitor of the MacKays, is sourced to the work by Sir Robert Gordon "[https://archive.org/details/genealogicalhist00gord Genealogical history of the Earldom of Sutherland from its origin to the year 1630. With a continuation to the year 1651]", written at a time when the families were at war with each other. This supposition was included in Robert Mackay's work for the lack of any other material. Gordon's work tends to be disparaging and often completely false towards the Mackay and should only be used as a source for surrounding events. There is discussion regarding the Mackays that held lands to the Lord of the Isles, including those of Ugadale, in the work by Donald Gregory; "[https://archive.org/details/historyofwestern00greguoft The history of the Western Highlands and Isles of Scotland, from A.D. 1493 to A.D. 1625]". The Mackays of Ugadale are sourced to a Gilchrist MacImar Mackay who received his lands in Kintyre from Robert Bruce. Skene provides much of the discussion regarding Clan Morgan as being the source of Clan Mackay in his early work; "[https://archive.org/stream/highlandersofsco02sken#page/286/mode/2up The Highlanders of Scotland; Volume 2]". Skene wrote this work when young (1836) and many of his views expressed in that work would change.

Popular tradition gives the clan a Dalriadic Gaelic origin. The 19th century historian W. F. Skene named the clan as one of the seven clans of Siol Alpin - who according to Skene could all trace their ancestry back to Alpin, father of Cináed mac Ailpín. Popular tradition has been until recently to consider Cináed mac Ailpín the first King of Scots and a Gael, however recent research speculates Cináed was a Pictish king and possibly even a Pict himself. Sir Iain Moncreiffe of that Ilk speculated that Clan Mackinnon belonged to the kindred of Saint Columba, noting the Mackinnon Arms bore the hand of the saint holding the Cross, and the several Mackinnon abbots of Iona. The Mackinnon clan took part in the [[:Category: Thirty Years' War|thirty years war]] with neighbouring clans such as MacKay, Love and McFarlane. Early history states that the Mackinnon clan was one of the most powerful clan in highland Scotland. Though little is known of the early history of the clan, it is likely to have served under the Lords of the Isles. After the forfeiture of the Lordship of the Isles in 1493 the clan would have gained some independence, and was at various times allied or at war with neighbouring clans such as the MacLeans and the MacDonalds. The clan supported the Jacobites in the 17th and 18th centuries, and tradition has the chief of the clan aiding in the escape of Bonnie Prince Charlie in his flight to France. Because of their support for the last Jacobite rebellion the Mackinnon chiefs lost the last of their ancient clan lands.[[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Clan_Mackinnon 1]] '''Clan Cheiftess:''' Madame Anne Gunhild MacKinnon of MacKinnon, 38th Chief of the Name and Arms of Clan MacKinnon. :Crest: A boar's head erased, argent, holding in its mouth a deer's shankbone, proper. :Motto: AUDENTES FORTUNA JUVAT (translation from Latin: "Fortune assists the daring" or "Fortune favours the bold"). :Slogan: Cuimhnich bas Alpein (translation from Gaelic: "Remember the death of Alpin"). :Region: :District: :Plant badge: Scots Pine :Pipe music: :Gaelic name: '''Septs:''' Kinnon, Love, MacKinney, MacKinning, Mackinven, MacMorran '''Names associated with the clan:''' '''Clan branches''' * Mackinnon of Borreraig * Mackinnon of Corriechatachans * Mackinnon of Elgol * Mackinnon of Gambell, Skye * Mackinnon of Keanouchrach (Chinn Uachdaraich), Scalpay, Inner Hebrides * Mackinnon of Kyle * Mackinnon of Mishnish, on Mull '''See Also:''' * http://www.themackinnon.com/ * http://www.clanmackinnonatlantic.org/ * http://www.electricscotland.com/webclans/m/mackinn2.html

The clan claim descent from the royal house of Duff, through Shaw, the second son of Duncan Macduff, Earl of Fife, of the royal house of Dalriada. Shaw was part of a force led by King Malcolm IV which repressed a rebellion in Moray in 1160. Granted lands in the valley of the river Findhorn, the lands of Petty became the centre of clan territory. The 5th chief led his clan at the Battle of Largs in 1263, during the reign of King Alexander III. His son was raised by his uncle, the Lord of the Isles and he married the daughter of the chief of Clan Chattan in Lochaber, extending the clan lands to Glenloy and Loch Arkaig. After that, the Clan Chattan, which developed into a loose confederation of independent clans, was usually led by a Mackintosh (though challenged on occasions by the Macphersons).

Many early MacLeans became famous for their honour, strength and courage in battle. The legendary progenitor of the Macleans was [[MacLean-438|Gilleathain na Tuaidh]] or Gillean of the Battle Axe, a 13 century Celtic warrior. Gillean's son [[MacLean-339|Malise mac Gilleain]] is said to have led his followers against the Norsemen at the Battle of Largs in 1263 during the Scottish-Norwegian War where the Scottish were victorious. Gillean's great-great-grandson settled in Mull and by 1390, Donald, Lord of the Isles gave land to his two brothers-in-law, thus starting the two main branches of the clan: [[:Category:Lairds of Duart|Maclean of Duart]] and Maclaine of Lochbuie (both on the island of Mull where the name is still frequently found).[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Clan_Maclean] As the Clan grew divisions were formed and independance followed. From the house of [[:Category:Lairds of Duart|Duart]] and Morvern succeeded the house of Lochbuie, with its branches of Scallasdale, and Uisken and Urquhart, which is again divided into branches: Dochgarroch, Kingerloch, and Knock. Also from Duart comes the house of Ardgour with it's cadets of Borreray, Treshnish, Inverscadale, and Blaaich. A third division of Duart was the house of Lehir and its branches of Ross and Shuna. The fourth house is that of [[:Category:Lairds of Coll|Coll]], with its branches of Arnabost, Crossapol, Achnasaul, Grishipol, Muck, Drimnacross, Totaranald, and Gallanach. Next is the house of Morvern, with its cadets of Kinlochaline, Drimnin, Calgary, Grulin and Pennycross. Finally the houses of Torloisk, Sweden and Brolas.

There are two main branches of the clan: the Macleods of Harris and Dunvegan, whose chief is Macleod of Macleod, are known in Gaelic as Sìol Tormoid ("seed of Tormod"); the Macleods of Lewis, whose chief is Macleod of The Lewes, are known in Gaelic as Sìol Torcaill ("seed of Torcall"). Both branches claim descent from Leòd, who lived in the 13th century. The surname MacLeod means 'son of Leod'. The name Leod is an Anglicization of the Scottish Gaelic name Leòd, which is thought to have been derived from the Old Norse name Ljótr, meaning ugly.[2] Clann means family, while mhic is the genitive of mac, the Gaelic for son, and Leòid is the genitive of Leòd. The whole phrase therefore means The family of the son of Leod. It is often said that Clan MacLeod of Lewis claims its descent from Leod, who according to MacLeod tradition was a younger son of Olaf the Black, King of Mann (r.1229–1237). Skene, in his work on Celtic Scotland[https://archive.org/stream/celticscotlandhi03skenuoft#page/354/mode/2up Celtic Scotland]; Skene, vol 3, page 355 suggests the tradition a complete fabrication created by Fraser in his work "The Earls of Cromartie." Skene's view is generally supported by modern historians and discussed below in Matheson's work. The more accepted view of the true pedigree of the Macleods is contained in a surviving Irish MSS., and discussed by [http://www.macleodgenealogy.org/Research/Matheson1.html Rev. William Matheson], which places Leod in the thirteenth century, and makes him son of Gillemuire, son of Raice, son of Olbair Snoice, son of Gillemuire, whose mother is said to have been Ealga of the Fair Locks, daughter of Harold, king of Lchlan or Norway. They were Celtic in the male line, Norwegian in the female. Skene's translation of the manuscript is debated with the results summarised by [http://www.macleodgenealogy.org/Research/APMacLeod.html#I35 Andrew MacLeod] and published to the Society in November 2000. ===Start of the Tradition=== In the early 12th Century all of the western Isles, down to the Isle of Mann, and north to the Orkneys, were held to the Viking Kingdom of Norway. The western Isles were divided into two dynasties; that of Somerled in the south and that of Crovan in the north, under [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Godred_Olafsson Guðrøðr Óláfsson], King of Mann and the Isles, who was based in Mann. Somerled defeated Godfred to claim title to King of the Isles and Godfred's son, [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Olaf_the_Black Óláfr Guðrøðarson] retained Mann and the Hebrides. Following the Treaty of Perth in 1265, Norway ceded the Kingdom to Scotland. Alexander III immediately moved to strengthen the Isles and the five great clans were born. [[Image:Macleod-366.png|250px]] The MacLeod inherited the lands of the Crovan dynasty, including Skye, Harris, Lewis and the Hebrides while the MacDonald inherited the lands of Somerled, based on Islay. The MacLeans, strong supporters of Alexander and based near Perth, were provided with Mull, an ideal buffer between the two Norwegian clans. The Mackays remained in the northern and western seaboard and the Mackenzies introduced on the western seaboard controlling access to the Earldom of Ross. There is conjecture as to the origin of Leod. What is depicted, currently, on wikitree, is a derivation of the Kings of Mann theory. This source is debated vigorously within the [http://www.macleodgenealogy.org/ Genealogical Research Centre of the Clan] and is, in the main, no longer taken seriously. Significant, and rigorous, research was published in 1981 by [http://www.macleodgenealogy.org/Research/Matheson1.html Rev. William Matheson] which challenged the traditional belief. Matheson died soon after and his work was later refuted by [http://www.macleodgenealogy.org/Research/Morrison.html Alick Morrison] in 1986 and supported in part by [http://www.macleodgenealogy.org/Research/Sellar.html W. D(avid). H. Sellar]. The work was summarised by [http://www.macleodgenealogy.org/Research/APMacLeod.html#I35 Andrew MacLeod] and published to the Society in November 2000. Andrew MacLeod makes it clear that " In short, there is no historical reason to believe that Leod was the son of Olaf the Black." [http://www.macleodgenealogy.org/Research/APMacLeod.html#I35 Andrew MacLeod] notes that "Gaelic tradition about the origin of the MacLeods almost never mentions the name Olaf. Instead, there often appears in Gaelic sources the name Olvir, thus in elegies on Iain Mór MacLeod of Dunvegan (d. 1649) and on Sir Ruaidhrí Mór MacLeod of Dunvegan (d. 1626) we find “Crú Olbhuir” (‘stock of Olvir’), “aicme Olbhuirsi” (‘race of Olvir’), “í Olbhair” and “ó Olbhair” (‘descendant of Olvir’), and “síl Olbhair” (‘seed of Olvir’). In vernacular Gaelic the name became ‘Olgar’, as in the poetry of Mairi nighean Alasdair Ruaidh, e.g. “Olgharach thù” (‘one of Olgar’s race art thou’) and “de shliochd Olghair nan Iann” (‘Of the race of Olgar of sword-blades’)." [http://www.macleodgenealogy.org/Research/Matheson1.html Matheson] argued the case that Olvir is clearly a different name from Olaf. [http://www.macleodgenealogy.org/Research/APMacLeod.html#I35 Andrew MacLeod] suggests that "the MacLeods are of the Sliochd Olbhuir and their royal Norse ancestry comes not from Olaf the Black but from Olvir’s ancestress Helga, sister of Godred Crovan." Modern historians now generally agreed that [[Olafson-8|Leod]] married the daughter and only child of Macraild Armine, said to be a Norwegian knight and Lord of Dunvegan who held considerable property amongst the islands; including Mogenish, Bracadale, Durinish, Dunvegan, Lindell, Waterness and part of Trotternish, all presumably on Skye. His name may have been [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/P%C3%A1ll_B%C3%A1lkason Paal Baalkeson], the hereditary sheriff of Skye, under the rule to the King of Mann, or his son. He is known to have held Sleat, Trotternish, Waternish, and Snizort on Skye, all of which will come to Leod. Baalkeson was killed in 1231, according to Norse manuscripts. The name Armuinn being a Norse title suggesting Steward (Gaelic: Armann), Macraild meaning son of Harold. Most histories of the family suggest Leod was brought up by this person likely indicating that he was a relative. Matheson [http://www.macleodgenealogy.org/Research/Matheson2.html William Matheson], provides critical research in the family of MacLeod, particularly of Lewis. conjectures that Leod's wife may have been a relative of [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Magnus_Olafsson Magnus Olafson], king of Man, died in 1265 who was a member of the Norwegian Crovan dynasty, which seems a reasonable supposition. Following the death of Baalkeson, Leod inherits his titles and possessions and, around 1265, has possession of the lands of the Crovan dynasty. It is he that manages the family through the transition to Scottish rule. Leod, according to tradition, died around 1280 and was buried on the holy island of Iona, where six successive chiefs of the clan found a last resting-place after him. ===Legacy of Leod=== There is still conjecture regarding his legacy. Tradition stated that Leod's two sons, Tormod and Torquil, founded the two main branches of the Clan MacLeod, Siol Tormod and Siol Torquil. [http://www.macleodgenealogy.org/Research/Matheson2.html William Matheson] believes there was only one son, Tormod (Eng: Norman), that inherits all titles and that Torquil was a grandson to Leod and title to Lewis occurs later. However this (wikitree) site notices Bain's work; History of RossBain; History of the ancient province of Ross (The County Palatine of Scotland) from the earliest times to the present time; [https://archive.org/stream/historyofancient00bain#page/68/mode/2up page 69] where he mentions that Dorothea, daughter to William, 4th Earl of Ross, married Torquil MacLeod, 2nd "baron of the Lewis". This Earl, William, was the overlord to Leod for his lands on Skye, after 1265. He thrived between 1260 and his death in 1322 thus suggesting the division of title; between Skye and Lewis, had occurred within the lifetime of Leod.

Here are some of the tasks that I think need to be done. I'll be working on them, and could use your help. * promoting the entries of those bearing the name MacLeod on Wikitree. * ensuring entries appearing on Wikitree are as accurate as possible, correcting mistakes once spotted. * encouraging interest in and study of Clan MacLeod.

MacLeod, Andrew P. (2000). "The Ancestry of Leod". www.macleodgenealogy.org. He is stated to be le Sir de Bes in the Armorial de Berry which dates to the mid 15th Century. The blazon is ''azure, a castle triple-towered argent''. The supposition, le Sir de Bes, is noted in Stoddart.Stodart, R. R. Scottish Arms Being A Collection of Armorial Bearings, A.D. 1370-1678, Reproduced In Facsimile From Contemporary Manuscripts, With Heraldic And Genealogical Notes. Volume 1. Edinburgh: William Paterson, 1881. [[Image: MacLeod-1012.png|150px]] Interestingly, and not mentioned in any discussion on the topic, is the fact that a Le Sir de Bene appears on the same Armorial Roll and above Dunvegan. This must have been [[MacLeod-1012|Torquil MacLeod]]. Le Sir de bene is noticed as carrying: ''Or, a rock Azure in flames Gules''. Later, in the Scots Roll,[http://www.heraldry-scotland.co.uk/scots.html The Scots Roll] this family will carry; Makloyd - ''Or, a rock Sable in flames Gules'', the difference being the change to black for the tincture of the rock. It doesn't take much of a stretch of imagination to envisage that the rock in flames may represent the danger to the house. It is interesting to note that this blazon is very similar to the clan badge of Clan MacKenzie (a mount in flames proper). It is worth pointing out that there is no representation of Mann in these early arms; that is a much later addition. ===Clan Branches=== :Clan Macleod of Lewis '''Rival clans:''' :Clan MacDonald of Sleat '''Septs:''' Beaton, Betha, Bethune, Beton.

Chief of the Clan MacNaghten. Succeeded his father in 2007. :Crest: A castle embattled, Gules. :Motto: I hope in God :Slogan: :War cry: Fraoch Eilean - "The island of Heather" :Region: Highland and Lowland :District: Strathtay, Lewis, Argyll, Galloway :Plant badge: Trailing Azalea Proper :Pipe music: :Clan song: Rowan Tree :Gaelic name: MacNeachdain or MacNeachdainn "Son of Nechtan" '''Evolution of Clan MacNauchtan Surnames-''Beginning with the Word Nig''''' “To discover the origin of the surname of the Clan MacNauchtan we go far back into antiquity. The key lies in one small word of three letters: the Celtic root word nig. All authorities agree on this, and on the meaning of the word: to wash, to be clean. From nig came the old Pictish or Caledonian name-word necht, which means a pledge, or a clean person suitable to be given as a hostage. From necht came the proper name Nechtan, which evolved through centuries into Nauchtan. Then came MacNauchtan, and a long series of variants: MacNaughtan, MacNaughton, Macnaghten, McNaughton, McNaught, McKnight, McNeight, McNutt, McNitt, and McNett. Add mentally to the abbreviated and corrupted forms about two score other surnames not to be listed here and you will have a quick view of the lush growth from the little seed nig, over a period of sixteen or eighteen centuries. It was common in ancient Caledonia in the early days of the Christian era for rival clans to give hostages to bind agreements to keep the peace and stop raiding each other’s herds. A necht or hostage was likely to be a clean-hearted or knightly youth whose tribe would wish his ultimate return, and for whose safety it was worth while to practice restraint. It meant something to be clean in the dirty days of antiquity, when somebody in our past got himself named for what may have seemed a peculiarity. The Celts often attached a diminutive suffix to the end of a name to indicate affection. A very early suffix was -an meaning little. So a pledge or hostage to whom the name Necht adhered became Nechtan or Little Pledge when the diminutive ending was added to his name. In later times the suffix -ie came into general use instead, and Scottish surnames show how through affection of parents and friends we came to have so many like Blackie, Dickie or Dickey, and Richie or Rickey. This us of the diminutive form continues today when we call children Jeanie, Robbie, Jamie, and Sandy. For a supposedly stern people, the Scots have betrayed in their name-forms a singular capacity for affection. Henry Harrison in a standard work entitled Surnames of the United Kingdom informs us that the surname MacNaughton and McNaught are of common Celtic origin and derive from Nig. Necht or Neachd, and Nechtan. The actual difference in the two forms of surname of the old clan comes to this: MacNauchtan means son of the little pledge and McNaught means son of the pledge. The first written use of the surname in a still existing document was made in a charter or deed given approximately in the year 1246, when Malcolm MacNachtan was referred to as the father of Gilchrist MacNachtan. The suffix-an was replaced in the later times by the ending -on and -en. Families in Scotland didn’t have established surnames until the latter half of the eleventh century, when King Malcolm Canmore encouraged his people to accept a practice already begun in some other countries. Even then only a beginning was made. Before that time, a man or boy was referred to as the son of his father. Thus Niel, son of William, was called Niel macWilliam. Niel’s son Robert was apt to be known as Robert macNiel. And so on, King Malcolm Canmore halted the procession and asked all hands to keep and pass along the names they were wearing. That is when MacNiel and MacNaughtan became fixed surnames. Often a “given” or Christian name persisted in a family and became the bases of the surname ultimately adopted, without the use of the patronymic “Mac”. Alexander is a good example. Men also took names from the places where they lived, and from their trades or occupations. Here are some examples of Scottish names: Galloway, Muir or Moore, Craig, Weaver, Webster, Miller, Baxter (baker), Lorimer (harness-maker), and Wright (carpenter). Colors were drawn upon too for such names as Black, White, Brown and Reid (red). But never Yellow. “ “Some of the Celtic scholars who have specialized in Scottish surnames are strict, perhaps excessively so, in their rules as how those beginning with Mac should be written. Dr. George F. Black, Author Surnames of Scotland tells us that only the sons of the Nauchtan of King Malcolm Canmore’s day should be recorded thus: MacNauchtan. Names of grandsons and all who have followed, properly should be written as Macnauchtan or Macnaughton, without using the capital N. The Antrim branch of the clan adheres to this rule and writes the name as Macnaghten. But usage has powerful influence and does not defer to authorities. Even as early as the beginning of the fifteenth century it became customary to abbreviate Mac names, thus: M'Nauchtan. The apostrophe of writers and printers was an inverted comma, and it looked something like a small elevated c. Consequently, MacNauchtan or Macnaughton, like other surnames beginning with Mac, came to take the form McNaughton.

From an early date the Clan formed part of the [[:Category: Clan Chattan|Clan Chattan Federation]], a group of smaller Clans, likely with inter-related Chiefs, that banded together against the larger Clans of the region. Muirich was said to be a great-grandson of Gillichattan Mor, the founder of Clan Chattan. History suggests that they were a small community, associated with Clan Chattan prior to King Robert I (the Bruce). He, Bruce, commissioned the Macphersons to remove the Comyns from Badenoch, during his purge of their estates in the north east. As a reward Bruce granted them their lands of but this likely ratified the lands held by them as hereditary parson of the Culdee church in the district. '''Clan Lands'''. The original grant of lands was for possessions in the area of Newtonmore, in the, current day, district of Badenoch and Strathspey, centered on the village of Laggan.

Detailed information should be moved to additional Clan pages. ---- ===Clan MacQuarrie=== Clan MacQuarrie (also MacQuarie, McQuary, MacQuaire, MacGuarie, Macquarie) is an ancient Highland Scottish clan which owned the islands of Ulva, Staffa and Gometra as well as large tracts of land on the Isle of Mull, which are all located in the Scottish Inner Hebrides. Clan MacQuarrie (Scottish Gaelic for: son of Guaire) is one of the seven Siol Alpin clans descended from the Kings of the Picts and Dál Riata. Clan MacQuarrie is one of the oldest Highland clans and can trace its ancestry to 9th century Kenneth MacAlpine, the first King of Scots. According to the nineteenth century historian William F. Skene, the manuscript of 1450 documents the royal descent of Clan MacQuarrie through their progenitor Guaire (Scottish Gaelic for: noble), brother of Fingon (ancestor of Clan MacKinnon) and Anrias (ancestor of Clan Gregor). They were fierce fighters in the Wars of Scottish Independence and fought in support of Robert the Bruce at the Battle of Bannockburn in 1314. Clan MacQuarrie is first found in possession of the island of Ulva in the Scottish Inner Hebrides, and followed the Lords of the Isles. The first record of Clan MacQuarrie is of the chief John Macquarrie of Ulva, who died in 1473.John's son, Dunslaff, was the chief of the clan during the forfeiture of the Lord of the Isles, after which the MacQuarries gained independence as a small, respected clan surrounded by a powerful ally in Clan MacLean. Following the fall of the Lordship of the Isles the clan followed Maclean of Dowart, and with the Macleans, the MacQuarries supported Domhnall Dubh's quest for the Lordship of the Isles at the beginning of the sixteenth century. In 1504 MacGorry of Ullowaa, along with other chiefs, was summoned to answer for aiding in Donald Dubh's failed rebellion. The following chief, Dunslaff's son John, was one of the chiefs denounced in 1504, for treasonous correspondence with the King of England. The clan suffered grievously at the Battle of Inverkeithing on July 20, 1651, where they fought as royalists in aid of Charles II of England against an English Parliamentarian army led by John Lambert. During the battle many Scots deserted, and the remaining Scots were decisively defeated by the well disciplined New Model Army of the English. Amongst the slain was Allan Macquarrie of Ulva, chief of Clan MacQuarrie, and most of his followers. Clan MacQuarrie currently does not have a chief. The last chief of Clan MacQuarrie was Lauchlan Macquarrie of Ulva. MacQuarrie was head of the clan when Samuel Johnson and James Boswell visited Ulva in 1773. Debts to creditors forced the last chief to sell off his lands and in 1778, at the age of 63, he joined the British Army. The chief then served in the American Revolutionary War, and died at the age of 103 in 1818, with the title Lord Lynedoch. A large portion of the ancient patrimonial property was repurchased by Major General Lachlan Macquarie, long Governor of New South Wales, and from whom Port Macquarie and Macquarie Island in the South Pacific derive their names. Today, the modern clan MacQuarrie is alive with an active society of global members. The Coat of Arms belonging to the Chief of the MacQuarries of Ulva are on display at Macquarie University in honor of Lachlan Macquarie [[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Clan_MacQuarrie 1]] :Crest: Issuant from a tower head embattled and crenellated Argent, a dexter arm in armour embowed, the hand grasping a dagger projected fessways all Proper :Motto: Turris fortis meus mihi Deus (To me God is my strong tower). :Slogan: An t'arm breac dearg (The red tartaned army) :Region: Inner Hebrides, Scottish Highlands :District: Ulva, Staffa and the Isle of Mull :Plant badge: Pine :Pipe music: An t-Arm breac dearg (The Red-tartaned Army) :Gaelic name: '''Septs:''' MacCorrie, MacCorry, MacGorry, MacGorrie, MacGuarie, MacGarry, MacGuire, MacQuaire, MacQuarie, McQueary, MacQuhire, MacQuire, Quarry, Wharrie, and various spellings. "Mc" is simply an abbreviated version of "Mac" which is a Gaelic word meaning "son." Mc, M', Ma, and even M: were often used as printer's abbreviations in earlier times for "Mac." Sometimes the "Mac" was simply omitted. Thus MacQuarrie might appear in full the first time the name is mentioned in a particular work, but thereafter as McQuarrie, M'Quarrie, or simply Quarrie--the "Mac" was assumed.

The MacQuarrie tartan used today is very similar to the red MacDonald of the Isles tartan, and the MacDonald of Sleat tartan. The MacQuarries were never a "sub-clan" of the MacDonalds, however. They were a small, but independent clan in the Lordship. CLAN MACLEAN: The MacQuarries were also followers of the MacLeans of Duart in many instances, as is illustrated by our history. In fact, the modern clan MacLean does list MacQuarrie as one of it's associated names. However, this appears to be historically inaccurate, as the MacQuarries were never absorbed into the MacLeans.

Detailed information should be moved to additional Clan pages. ---- '''Clan MacQueen (Macqueen)''' The name MacQueen or Macsweyns is said to originate from several sources. The Celtic version is also given as "Macsween" or "son of Sweyn". Other possible sources include from the Gaelic Suibhne meaning "going well", from the Norse Sweyn, or from MacCuinn, "son of Conn". The MacQueens appear to be of Hebridean and West Highland origin, and were associated with Clan Donald early on. The McQueens of Moy are said to be related to Alan McDonald, chief of the clan McDonalds, who died about 1419. In 1410 his daughter Mora McDonald of Moidart married Malcom Beg Mackintosh, 10th chief of Mckintos. As was the custom, she took with her for guards certain kinsmen identified as McQueen. These Macqueen clansmen later settled in Argyll, forming a sept of Clan Chattan (Clan Catten, Clans of the Cat). Clan Chattan, a confederation of about 16 clans, were joined together in the 1500s for mutual protection. Leader of Clan Chattan was always of MacKintosh family. The clans were located in Lochaber, Strathairn, and Bodenoch, Scotland. Our branch of the clan McQueen settled in Strathdearn and acquired the lands of Corryborough. They were originally known as Clan Revan, named after Revan Macqueen, who fought under Mackintosh at the Battle of Harlaw in 1411. Revan Macqueen was an ancestor to the Macqueens of Corrybrough (Lairds of Corriborough) who settled in Strathdearn. About 1600 the Clan was granted land in their own right around Moy in Inverness, which is still a McQueen stronghold, . In 1609 John McQueen in Corrybrough signed the Clan Chattan Band as chief of the McQueens. The Clan lands appear to have been lost in the late 18th century, when the chief, John Fraser died in 1881. The fortunes of the family may have failed at that point, perhaps forcing forfeiture of the lands in exchange for debts owed. The title passed to Fraser's brother's son, who was the last known chief of the clan. When he emigrated to New Zealand, it appears that the Macqueens were scattered throughout Scotland, across the Atlantic, and elsewhere into the English-speaking world. Macqueens also held the lands of Garafad, on the Isle of Skye in the Hebrides for many generations. However, if you examine the records of the 1616 & 1645, whilst some McQueens from Skye & Raasay did fight with Clan Donald, most were from Inverness district fighting with the McIntosh and McPherson Clans. Most of those who were transported after the Battle of Preston would have been under James McQueen of Corrybrough who was attached to McIntosh of Borlum's Regiment. Inverness, Morayshire and Nairn are the logical place to look for the Scottish roots of most McQueens. The records were poorly kept in those counties and some of the records have been destroyed. This history helps explain why it is unclear to which clan MacQueen actually belongs, and why MacQueen is not truly a clan unto itself. [ "Scottish Clan and Family Encyclopedia" by George Way of Plean and Romilly Squire, Glasgow: HarperCollins Publishers, 1994; Donna Hechler, Metes and Bounds, p 7, citing Frank Adam, The Clans, Septs, and Regiments of the Scottish Highlands (Scotland, Johnston & Bacon 1970) p. 271-272; Sir Robert Iaian Moncrieffe, The Highland Clans (London: Branall House) p. 134-136; "Clan MacQueen" from www.tartans.com] Dugal MacQueen was born and raised in the Highlands of Scotland. He was thought to have lived in Strathdearn at Corryborough on the Findhorn River near Inverness. He participated in the Jacobite Rebellion of 1715. The rebels were the supporters of the exiled James II of England and his heirs. There were many such adherents among the Roman Catholics of Scotland, some in Ireland, and a dissident group within the Church of England. During the rebellion of 1715 the rebel forces entered Preston on November 9 and after proclaiming as their king the chevalier of St. George, remained there for several days during which the government forces advanced upon them. The Town was assaulted and on November 14 the rebel general Thomas Forster surrendered his army to the King's forces On November 14, 1715 Dugal was captured at the Battle of Preston by the English, tried at Carlisle and sentenced to transportation. On August 20, 1716 Dugal arrived at Baltimore, Maryland on the Friendship of Belfast commanded by Michael Mankin and was one of three sold into seven years indentured servitude to William Holland, Esq. His seven years of servitude should have been completed in 1723. They must have gotten along pretty good during Dugal's servitude. Dugal named some of his sons the same as William Holland's sons: Francis, William and Thomas. --------------------------------- :Crest: An heraldic tyger rampant Ermine holding an arrow, point downwards A :Motto: Constant and faithful :Slogan: :Region: Highland :District: :Plant badge: boxwood or red whortleberry :Pipe music: :Gaelic name: :[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Clan_badge '''Plant badge''']: [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vaccinium_vitis-idaea Red Whortleberry] lat. vaccinium vitis-idaea - which is found in abundance in forests, moors and in the slopes of the hills of Clan Chattan Country.

Alexander Macrae in the early 20th century, the main authority for the early history of Clan Macrae is the late 17th century manuscript account of the clan written by Rev. John Macrae.[3][4] Alexander Macrae largely based his history of the clan upon John Macrae's earlier account.[5] According to tradition, the Macraes were originally from Ireland, and shared a common ancestry with the Mackenzies and Macleans. The Macraes were said to have originated from Clunes, which is located near the southern shore of the Beauly Firth, and was within the lordship of Lovat. Alexander Macrae stated that these traditions likely refer to a period sometime in the middle of the 13th century.[6] According to John Macrae, after a violent dispute arose between the Macraes and more powerful Frasers of Lovat, three sons of the Macrae chief set off for new lands. One of the sons settled in Brahan, near Dingwall; another settled in Argyll; and the other settled in Kintail.[4] At that time Kintail was held by the Mackenzies, and according to John Macrae's account, there were very few Mackenzies of the chiefly line and thus the chief of that clan welcomed the Macraes because they shared a common descent and could be relied upon. Although John Macrae did not know the name of the Macrae brother who settled in Kintail, he stated that this Macrae brother married the daughter, or granddaughter, of Macbeolan who possessed a large part of Kintail before the Mackenzie's rise to power.[note 1] Alexander Mackenzie considered this marriage to be the real reason for the loyalty given by the Macraes to their Mackenzie lords; he did not believe the Macraes and Mackenzies to share a common ancestry in the male line as John Macrae had claimed.[4] Eilean Donan Castle, in 2002 Alexander Macrae was of the opinion that these events probably took place sometime in the first half of the 14th century, before the Mackenzies became firmly established in the Kintail area. He stated that there didn't appear to be any evidence that the Macraes were in the Kintail area before the time of these events, but noted that it was said that Eilean Donan Castle was garrisoned by Macraes and Maclennans in the late 13th century, during the period when the fortress was first taken into possession by Kenneth, founder of the Mackenzies of Kintail.[6] According to tradition, one of the prominent ancestors of the Macraes from Kintail was Fionnla Dubh mac Gillechriosd, According to John Macrae, Fionnla Dubh mac Gillechriosd was about two, or three, generations removed from the Macrae who settled in Kintail from Clunes. Alexander Macrae stated that Fionnla Dubh was a contemporary of Murdo Mackenzie, fifth chief of the Mackenzies of Kintail. In 1416, Murdo died and was succeeded by his son, Alexander.[8] According to the traditions of John Macrae, when the bastard uncles of the young Mackenzie chief began oppressing the folk of the district, Fionnla Dubh was instrumental in retrieving him from the south of Scotland; upon Alexander's return, the Mackenzie lands were brought back under control. The main line of the Macraes from Kintail, the Macraes of Invernate, trace their descent from Fionnla Dubh.[8] add a story here, find one here [[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Category:Scottish_clans 1]] or here [[http://www.electricscotland.com/webclans/index.html 2]]

However, this is incorrect. The MacTavish consider themselves much older than the traditional stories of Argyllshire, promulgated by the old seannachies, and newer writers still insist upon the old stories, when none have looked beyond those traditional stories for any possible alternate origin. Such a beginning is found in the old Irish annals and the old writ, Ceart Ui Neill, out of Donegal, Ireland. The MacTavishes come from the Cenel nDuach a branch of the Cenel Conaill, descended from the Pictish Kings of Ros Guill and Irguill, now part of Donegal, and also from Dal-araidhe, now part of Antrim and Down. The Greek (Roman)historian, mapmaker and mathmetician, Ptolemy, mentions the tribe under the name of Ouenniknoi (Windukatii), and the lineage is tracable in such texts as the Irish Annuls of Ulster and Four Masters. The clan can be traced back to the 12th Century where it was based around Dunrardarie in Argyll. the MacTavish clan was also known as 'The Children of the Mist', an acronym more commonly attributed to the clan MacGregor. It is all too common to find documentation like that of Alastair Campbell of Airds whom in 2000, wrote a more probable candidate for the ancestor of the clan, rather than the possibly mythological Taus Coir, is the historical Sir Thomas Cambel. Earlier in the 1970s, W. D. H. Sellar was also of the same opinion about Thomas. It is commonly held that Clan MacTavish descends from Taus (Tavis) Coir, son of Colin Mael Maith and a daughter of Suibhne Ruadh (Sween the Red of Castle Sween). Nothing certain is known of Taus Coir other than he is listed in traditional genealogies. The 17th century genealogy Ane Accompt of the Genealogie of the Campbells, randomly and inexplicably traces Colin Mael Maith back to the mythological King Arthur. Furthermore this record conveniently references Colin Mael Maith having one legitimate son and two illegitimate sons. The Accompt states the legitimate son as "Gillespic" or "Archibald", ancestor of Clan Campbell and the two illegitimate sons are "Taius Coir" and "Iver", ancestors of the MacTavishes and Clan MacIver. It can be difficult to find accurate information about the history of Clan MacTavish. This is a result of the clan being ancient and the fact that history is written or rewritten by those in power whom often must go to great lengths in order to establish or strengthen their position. The ancient and unbroken chiefly line of MacTavishes are styled 'MacTavish of Dunardry' (the Gaelic Dun-ArdRigh means "fort or castle of the High King"). It is unknown who built the castle of Dunardry, or even when it was built. The castle is marked on a 1634 Timothy Pont map. By 1686 it must have been in the possession of the Earls of Argyll. It was renovated in 1704 by Duncan MacTavish, and according to the 19th-century historian G.D. Mathews, it seems likely it was later owned by the MacTavishes. Today nothing exists of the site, as it lies beneath the Crinan Canal. The name MacTavish is derived from the phoenetic pronunciation of MacTamhais which means "Son of Tammais" (Son of Thomas). It is likely that this changed in the 17th century as English became a more common language in Scotland than native Gaelic. Many other forms of the name manifest including Thompson, MacOmish and MacCombie In 1292 his name is recorded on a list of landowners in the sheriffdom of Kintyre. In 1296 he signed the Ragman Roll as 'Thomas Cambel among king's tenants in Perthshire'. The next year he was released from his imprisonment in the Tower of London. In 1308 he signed his name on a letter to the King of France. He was possibly dead by 1324, when his probable son, Duncan, was granted lands in Argyl for services rendered. In 1355, Duncan is listed as among 'the Barons of Argyll' at an inquest in Inverleckan, under the name of "Duncanus MacThamais". During the Rebellion of 1745 the clan was sympathetic to the Jacobite cause. he were also great friends to the nearby Campbells of Achnabreack but had uneasy relationship with neighbouring Campbell of Argyll. The Duke of Argyll betrayed Dugald MacTavish, son of Archibald the Clan Chief and he was imprisoned in Dumbarton for his alegiance to Prince Charles Edward Stuart. During the bloody aftermath of Culloden many MacTavishes changed their name to Thompson to avoid the persecution perpretrated on the highland clans, some of these later claimed to be a sept of Clan Campbell which has led to confusion. Dugald's son and Heir, Lachlan MacTavish succeeded his father in 1775, but by 1785, was forced to sell Dunardry by public auction. although Lachlan had registered his Arms in 1793 and was intending to buy back Dunardry he died in 1796 and in a few generations the line of the Chief was lost. This was only reinstated in 1997 after the Lord Lyon had traced the chiefly line.

The territory of the Earldom of Mar was in Aberdeenshire, between the River Dee and the River Don. Donald, Mormaer of Mar fought alongside the High King of Ireland, Brian Boru, against the Viking invaders at the Battle of Clontarf in 1014. In a charter of 1114, erecting Scone Abbey, Rothri, Mormaer of Mar is named and is given the Latin title Comes which equates to the modern rank of Earl. Sometime before 1152 Morgund, 2nd Earl of Mar witnessed a charter to Dunfermline Abbey. William, 5th Earl of Mar was one of the Regents of Scotland and in 1264 he was the Great Chamberlain of the Realm. William's son was Donald I, 6th Earl of Mar who was knighted at Scone in September 1270 by Alexander III of Scotland. Donald witnessed the contract of marriage between Eric II of Norway and Margaret of Scotland. Donald also acknowledged Eric's daughter, Margaret, Maid of Norway as the lawful heir to the throne. However, Margaret died in Orkney on route to claim her kingdom. The Earls of Mar supported Robert the Bruce's claim to the throne. Donald's eldest daughter was Isabella of Mar who was the first wife of Robert the Bruce. Isabella's brother was Gratney, 7th Earl of Mar who married Bruce's sister, Christina Bruce. Gratney was succeeded by his son, Donald II, 8th Earl of Mar. This Donald was captured at the Battle of Methven in 1306. He was then taken as a hostage to England and was not released until after the Scottish victory at the Battle of Bannockburn in 1314, when several other hostages including the wife, sister and daughter of Robert the Bruce were exchanged for the Earl of Hereford. Mar was chosen as Regent of Scotland in 1332 but he only held the title for ten days. On the eve of his election to the post, Edward Balliol marched with his English troops to Perth while Mar gathered his troops to confront the invaders. In the dead of night the English fell upon the Scots army while they were asleep and totally routed them. The Earl of Mar was among those who were killed. Donald's son, the next earl, Thomas, 9th Earl of Mar, died without issue and the title passed to Margaret, Countess of Mar who was his sister. From Margaret the title passed to her daughter, Isabel Douglas, Countess of Mar. Isabella's second husband was Alexander Stewart, Earl of Mar, son of Alexander Stewart, Earl of Buchan, the feared Wolf of Badenoch.

''Clan Maxwell''
'''Maxwell History''' The name Maxwell originates from Maccus, a Norse chief and son of Undweyn, who gave his name to Maccuswell, a pool of the river Tweed near Kelso bridge. A grandson of Maccus, John Maxwell, became chamberlain of Scotland before dying in 1241, to be succeeded by his brother Aylmer. From Aylmer sprang many branches of the family throughout the south-west of Scotland. The Maxwell clan supported Robert the Bruce and fought at his side at the Battle of Bannockburn in 1314, under the clan chief of Eustace Maxwell. Herbert, the succeeding clan chief was knighted by James I for his services to the crown. The Maxwell Lords followed a tradition of diplomacy and political intrigue - the fifth Lord was on friendly terms with Henry VII of England, while the seventh Lord was linked with a number of plots to restore Mary, Queen of Scots to her throne. After her execution he continued to seek support for a catholic revolution in Scotland, corresponding regularly with Philip of Spain. The Maxwell family were created Earls of Nithsdale and the fifth earl, a staunch Jacobite, was captured at the [[:Category: Battle of Preston (1715)|Battle of Preston]] during the 1715 rising. He was taken to London, tried for treason and sentenced to death. On the eve of his execution he made a daring escape from the Tower of London, disguised as a serving woman. His wife assisted in this escape, and together they fled to the Continent, where they remained in exile. Pollok House,Pollokshields,Glasgow the seat of the Maxwell Baronets of Pollok, is now of international importance, as it houses the world-famous Burrell Collection in its grounds.

The present mansion house has been erected at four periods; the latest addition to the house was built by the father of the late Sir John Maxwell, and this with former additions has made it large and commodious. Over the fire-place in the kitchen, which was built in 1631, there is the following - "THE BODIE FOR THE SAVL WAS FRAMD : THIS HOVS THE BODY FOR : IN HEAVNE FOR BOTH MY PLACE IS NAMD IN BLISS MY GOD T'ADOR. - 1631." It is supposed that this inscription was the work of Mr. George Maxwell of Auldhouse, minister of Mearns, or his son, Mr. John Maxwell, younger of Auldhouse, minister of the High Church, Glasgow, The latter, by bond dated 20th May, 1631, narrates that he and his father have founded, and are of intention to build houses, one or more, and to repair houses already built upon at their equal expenses; and Mr. John Maxwell becomes bound to disburse penny about with his father.

A relative. Sir Robert Maxwell of Orchardstane, had married one of Johnstone's sisters. So for some years there was peace between the two families. Then in the year 1593 the hereditary feud between the Johnstones and the Maxwells was revived, which resulted in a fierce battle at Dryffe Sands, not far from Lockerbie. The Battle of Dryfe Sands (or Dryffe Sands) was an attempt by the Maxwells to wipe out Clan Johnston, literally. This was the culmination of a 300 years war between the family of the Maxwells and Clan Johnston. It started, as did most, as a power struggle, in this case, for control of the Annan River valley and the surrounding region. Later a religious factor was added. The Maxwells were, with the encouragement and advice (possibly money too), of the RC church trying to overthrow the Scottish crown and give effective control back to an RC monarch and the Vatican. The Johnstons were Church of Scotland which later became the Presbyterian Church. The most renowned and bravest warriors among the Border families took part in this fight. Lord Maxwell, warden of the West Marches, armed with royal authority, and numbering among his followers all the barons of Nithdale, displayed his banner as the king's lieutenant and invaded Annandale at the head of 2,000 men. Buccleuch, the Elliots, the Armstrongs, and the Graemes, now reunited, came to the assistance of the Johnstones, whose army, although inferior in numbers, gained a decisive victory. Lord Maxwell, a tall man and heavily armed, was struck in the flight from his horse and cruelly slain. The hand which he stretched out for quarter was severed from his arm. This exploit was afterwards commemorated upon gravestones of Johnstone's descendants by an upraised hand with palm closed and two fingers stretched forward; to the sinister chief a sun, to the dexter base a crescent, which interpreted signifies, ** Mercy, mercy, night and day." Many of the Johnstones went to Fermanagh, Northern Ireland. The fatal battle was followed by a long feud attended with all the circumstances of horror proper to a barbarous age. John lord Maxwell, son to him who fell at the battle of Dryffe Sands, avowed the deepest revenge for his father's death and afterwards treacherously killed Sir James Johnstone. Having ventured to return from France, whither he had fled, he was apprehended lurking in the wilds of Caithness, brought to trial at Edinburgh, his estates forfeited, and on May 2ist, 1613, was beheaded.

If you are working on a specific task, please list it here: * promoting the entries of those bearing the name Menzies on Wikitree. * ensuring entries appearing on Wikitree are as accurate as possible, correcting mistakes once spotted. * encouraging interest in and study of Clan Menzies. ==Septs== *Spelling variations & the full list of Septs and names associated with Clan Menzies.*[https://clanmenzies.org/menzies-clan-society-2/clan-menzies/ Septs] Robert de Meyners’s name is spelt in 25 different ways in the historical records (1231-1267) but the most frequent is Meyners. The yogh in the middle is pronounced like a y but now represented in the age of print by the letter z since, handwritten in lower case, it resembled the copperplate version. In Gaelic, which has neither a z nor a yogh, the name is also pronounced with a y sound. This has led to the name being spelt in many different forms and sometimes prefixed “Mac” Examples are Menzie Mennie Mings Minnis MacMinnis Minn MacMinn Means MacMeans Monies MacMonnies Monzie Meyners. These families, however, neither have the structure of nor function like a Sept. But all who recognize the Chief are entitled to wear his badge as members of Clan Menzies. The Septs which branched off from the main line had a mini clan like structure, but that barely survived into the 18th Century, although some descendants still live in the areas they occupied. The Menzies of Pitfodels owned land around the lower Rivers Dee and Don and are extinct. Menzies of Enoch, and of neighbouring Durisdeer and Castlehill, in Dumfriesshire likewise, and Menzies of Coulterallers in Lanarkshire too. In Perthshire the Menzies of Shian, and of Garth and of Bolfracks did not recover from the effects of the Jacobite Rebellion whilst Comrie reverted to the Menzies of Weem and was sold. ==Clan History== The Menzies family is of Norman origin from Mesnieres near Rouen. Robert de Meyners is first recorded in Scotland in 1231 and by the 1240s owned land near the Tay, in return for military service. The Clan and the Lowland Septs fought on the Covenanting side in the 17th Century, the Aberdeenshire Pitfoddels who fought on the Royalist experienced exile and deprivation. In the 1715 and ‘45 Jacobite wars the same pattern emerged. The Chief avoided committing the Clan. The Perthshire Septs gentry were Jacobites, but force was often needed to muster unenthusiastic clansmen. The Menzies family were the oldest family in Perthshire, holding by unbroken hereditary descent, until the death of Egidia Menzies in 1918. But by then the Clan lands had been sold by its creditors, and there was a gap until 1957, when Ronald Menzies of Culdares was recognised as nearest heir of Egidia, and as such the Chief. His son David has now succeeded him as Chief. '''Lands''' *c.1240- The Culdares and Duneaves. The earliest existing Menzies document refers to the confirmation of the grant of lands in West Atholl. * c.1266- The Aberfeldy and Weem lands were granted including patronage of the Church of Weem. Alexander Menzies, (son of the Sir Robert who died in 1267), received Weem and Aberfeldy from the young Earl of Atholl around 1300 for assisting him, and land near Coshieville from Robert Bruce the king’s illegitimate son. *c1312-14- Loyalty to Robert Bruce was rewarded by grants of lands in the Highlands. Glendochart, Finlarig and Glenorchy and further lands in the Abthane of Dull, and Lowlands Durisdeer in Nithsdale. Although all lands were resigned to the Crown in the 1370s. *Three other Lowland baronies came through marriage. Robert Menzies outbid the Stewarts of Garth c1500 for royal lands near Weem and Rannoch which the latter had occupied, prompting them to burn Castle Menzies. *Until Sir Neil Menzies died in 1910, Weem, the Appin of Dull, and the North side of Rannoch (Tummel Valley) and surrounds were the territories remaining in the possession of the Menzies of Weem. Under financial pressure in the 19th Century, the creditors sold Rannoch and then Weem 1914-1919. ==Clan Branches== * The Menzies of Weem. Branches within the Menzies of Weem included- * Menzies of Carse * Menzies of Comrie * Menzies of Comrie (2nd Family) * Menzies of Pittentian, Shian & Aberfeldy * Menzies of Farlayer and Bolfracks.

They had Croft an Deor and were probably linked to the early religious foundation of Dull. ==Allied Clans== *McGregors of Roro (16th -17th cent) *McNaughton (17th Cent) *Lawers (17th Cent) *The Menzies were allies of the Stuarts. *The Menzies of Shian, Menzies of Culdares (Glenlyon) and Menzies of Pitfodles (Aberdeen), sided with the Jacobites. ===Rival Clans=== *Local rivals were: -Robertsons (15th cent) -Campbells of Glenorchy (15th-16th cent) -Stewarts of Garth (16th Cent) -Stewart E. of Atholl 16th Cent and 17th cent *There were a lot of disputes with the MacGregors living on Menzies lands although Menzies Clan Pipers were from Clan MacGregor! ==Clan Research and Free Space Pages== *[[Space:Menzies Clan Society|CLAN MENZIES and the OFFICIAL MENZIES CLAN SOCIETY of SCOTLAND]] *[[Space: CLAN MENZIES ONLINE CULTURAL EVENTS |CLAN MENZIES VIRTUAL EVENTS]] *[[Space:Clan Menzies, Hereditary Chief Menzies of Menzies|CLAN MENZIES: HEREDITARY CHIEFS]] *[[Space:CLAN_MENZIES_TARTANS|CLAN MENZIES TARTANS]] *[[Space:Castle Menzies| CASTLE MENZIES]] *[[Space:The MENZIES CHIEFTAINS|Quick Reference Guide to WikiTree Profiles of MENZIES CHIEFTAINS]] *[[Space:Menzies_Name_Study| MENZIES NAME STUDY]] *[[Space:CLAN_MENZIES_of_Scotland | CLAN MENZIES of Scotland]] *[https://www.wikitree.com/index.php?title=Space:MINGUS_Inc._(Menzies_INternational_Genealogy_UnderStudy)-1&public=1The Mingus Inc.

The first for whom there is evidence is: === SIR ROBERT DE MEYNERS (1177-1266) === Sir Robert was Lord High Chamberlain of Scotland to Alexander II in 1249 and was granted lands around Weem in Perthshire where Castle Menzies stands today. His name appears on a charter in the time of William the Lion (1142 -1214). '''Ancestors''' *Possibly grandson of Menyeis, Mengeis, 1st Baron of Menzies (1043 - 1132) *Possibly son of Anketillus de Maynoers 2nd Baron of Menzies (born 1120 -) === SIR ALEXANDER DE MEYNERS (1235 -1320) === {{Image|file=Clan Menzies Hereditary Chief Menzies of Menzies-4.jpg|caption=Menzies Bannockburn Claymore}} Sir Alexander also known as Alexander Menzies of Durrisdeer 1st of Weem, was acknowledged as Earl Menzies in an Act of Parliament of Scotland in 1312 and was a supporter of Robert I, King of Scots,1306 -1329. He was one of the Scottish barons who ratified the Treaty of Salisbury on 14 March 1290 and acquired the lands of Weem and Aberfeldybeg, in the Earldom of Atholl, from John de Strathbogie, Earl of Atholl, by charter dated in 1296. In 1308, he had two charters from Robert I, for the lands of Glen Dochart and upon Alexander marrying, (most likely his second wife) a daughter of Sir James, 5th High Steward of Scotland) with whom he had a charter under the Great Seal for the lands and barony of Durrisdeer. *The Menzies' Bannockburn Claymore is believed to have been used by Chief Sir Alexander Menzies 1st of Weem at the Battle of Bannockburn in 1314. It is currently displayed in the museum at CASTLE MENZIES. '''Descendants''' *Sir Robert de Menzies (see below). *Sir Thomas de Menzies- In 1314, was present at the Battle of Bannockburn with his father and brother Robert. In 1320 he represented his father at the meeting at which the Declaration of Arbroath was drafted and appended his seal to the letter. The seal represented a chief indented; on the top of the shield was a small ornament, and on each side was a celtic ornament like a lizard and the words 'S. Thome D. Meineris’. In 1329, Thomas also received from King Robert I, a charter to the lands and barony of Fortingall in Atolia, Perthshire. *Sir Alexander de Menzies married his cousin, Giles, daughter of Sir James Stewart of Preston, with whom he acquired the lands of Durrisdeer in around 1325. He disponed those lands to James Stewart, brother of Walter, the High Stewart. === SIR ROBERT DE MEYNERS (1267-1346) === As heir to his father, Sir Robert 2nd of Weem, had a charter from David de Strathbogie, Earl of Atholl, for the thanedom (?) of Crannich dated about 1312. At the resumption of the wars with England following the death of Robert I in 1329, he had his lands of Weem forfeited by Edward III in 1335 but this had little if any effect on his possession of them, and he was a member of the assize convened by Parliament to determine the rights of Sir Malise, late Earl of Strathearn, to that Earldom on 7 June 1344.

---- == '''Clan Moncreiffe''' == '''Origins of the clan''' The name Moncreiffe comes from the feudal barony of Moncreiffe in Perthshire. The lands of Moncreiffe take their name from the ''Monadh croibhe'' which is Scottish Gaelic for Hill of the sacred bough. The plant badge of the clan is the oak, which presumably comes from the sacred tree. Moncreiffe Hill dominates the southeast Perth valley and was a stronghold of the Pictish kings. This connects the clan with the lands of Atholl and Dundas, both of which were held by branches of the Picto-Scottish royal house. Albany Herald and chief of the clan Iain Moncreiffe (1919–1985) asserted that the coat of arms with the red royal lion on a silver shield were the colors of the house of Maldred, Regent of Cumbria and brother of Duncan I of Scotland. Thus indicating that they were cadets of Maldred's line. Maldred himself was a descendant of Niall of the Nine Hostages, king of Ireland. In 1248, Matthew Muncrephe received a charter from Alexander II of Scotland for lands in Perthshire. Sir John Moncref and William de Moncrefe were amongst the many Scottish nobles who pledged loyalty to Edward I of England. '''15th and 16th Centuries''' Malcolm Moncreiffe, the 6th Laird, was a member of James II of Scotland's council and received from him a charter incorporating his Highland and Lowland estates into the barony of Moncreiffe. He died in about 1465 and was succeeded by his son, the 7th Laird, who was James III of Scotland's chamberlain and shield bearer. The 7th Laird married Beatrix, daughter of James Dundas of that Ilk, but was murdered some time before 1475 by Flemish pirates. The three main branches of the clan descend from the 8th Laird of Moncreiffe who died in about 1496. The Moncreiffes of Moncreiffe are the chiefly line of the clan. The principal cadets of the clan are the Baron Moncreiffs of Tulliebole. From the barons descend the Moncreiffs of Bandirran, from who the Moncreiffs of Kinmonth and the Scot-Moncreiffs descend. During the 16th century, one branch of the Clan Moncreiffe joined the famous Scots Guard of Archers for the king of France and established at least three noble French families. However the Marquis de Moncrif was one of the French nobles who met his end on the guillotine during the French Revolution. In 1513, Sir John Moncreiffe, the 9th Laird was killed at the Battle of Flodden, as was his cousin, John, Baron of Easter Moncreiffe. His son was William Moncreiffe, the 10th Laird, who supported the Douglas Earl of Angus and in 1532 was fined for refusing to attend the Court that condemned Janet Douglas, Lady Glamis, to be burned to death as a witch, when her only crime was that of being a Douglas by birth. William Moncreiffe was later captured at the Battle of Solway Moss in 1542 and was imprisoned in the Tower of London. When he was released he embraced the Protestant religion, and was one of the barons who subscribed to the Articles in the General Assembly of the Church of Scotland in 1567. In 1544,the Clan Moncreiffe supported Clan Ruthven in a clan battle against Clan Charteris. The Ruthvens held considerable sway over Perth from their Huntingtower Castle. In 1544, Patrick, Lord Ruthven, was elected Provost of Perth but, at the intervention of Cardinal Beaton, Ruthven was deprived of the office and Charteris of Kinfauns was appointed instead. The city refused to acknowledge Charteris and barred the gates against him. Charteris, along with Lord Gray and Clan Leslie, then attacked the town. They were repulsed by the Ruthvens, who were assisted by Clan Moncreiffe. As a result, Ruthven remained Provost of Perth until 1584 when William Ruthven, Earl of Gowrie, was executed. '''17th Century and civil war''' Sir John Moncreiffe, the 12th Laird and chief of Clan Moncreiffe, was made Baronet of Nova Scotia in April 1626. However, John was unable to support the king and signed the National Covenant in 1638. His son, also called John, personally raised a company of the King's Scots Guards by warrant of Charles II of England in 1674. This John was heavily in debt and, in 1667, a charter was secured for a family agreement whereby the Barony of Moncreiffe was sold to Thomas Moncreiffe, who was a direct descendant of the eighth Laird of Moncreiffe. However, the Baronetcy of Moncreiffe passed to John's brother. In 1685, a second Moncreiffe baronetcy was created in which Thomas, now the 14th Laird, was himself created baronet by James VII of England and II of Scotland. Thomas later became Clerk of Exchequer in Scotland and baillie of the Regality of St Andrews. He commissioned a new seat at Moncreiffe, which was the first major country house to be completed by Sir William Bruce in 1679. '''Clan chief and seat''' A new seat was built for the Chief at Moncreiffe, the first major country house completed by Sir William Bruce, in 1679. It was the family seat until it was destroyed by fire in November 1957, claiming the life of Sir David Moncreiffe of that Ilk, 10th Baronet, the 23rd Laird. This tragedy led to the chiefship of the great Scottish herald and historian Sir Iain Moncreiffe of that Ilk, 11th Baronet. Sir David’s sister, Miss Elizabeth Moncreiffe of Moncreiffe, was his heir, but declared that it was her wish that he be succeeded by her cousin, Sir Iain, the Baron of Easter Moncreiffe, while she retained the feudal barony of Moncreiffe. She built a modern country house on the site of the old seat which incorporates the doorway reclaimed from the ashes of the burned house. Sir Iain died in 1985 and the chiefship reverted to Miss Moncreiffe. On her death, the chiefship passed to Sir Iain’s younger son, the Hon. Peregrine Moncreiffe of Easter Moncreiffe — his elder brother Merlin having assumed the name and arms of Hay on succeeding their mother Diana as Earl of Erroll and Chief of Clan Hay.

The family derives its surname from lands in Wales, likely from the Honour of Montgomery which was located near the Shropshire lands of the FitzAlans. There is no evidence of any familial connection between Clan Montgomery and the family of the Earls of Shrewsbury, who derived their own surname from lands in Calvados, Normandy. [Disputed in source below] In 1066 Roger de Mundegumbrie fought for William the Conqueror at the Battle of Hastings. He later invaded Wales where he captured the Castle of Baldwin, which he renamed Montgomery Castle. The earliest member of the clan in Scotland was Robert of Montgomery, and the earliest possessions of the clan (in Scotland) was Eaglesham, in Renfrewshire. Members of the clan are recorded in the late 13th century Ragman Rolls, but it is not until the 14th century when the family rose in prominence, through a dynastic marriage with the Eglington family. Through this marriage the clan acquired the Eglington estates; the clan also acquired the lands of the Ardrossan family (which was possibly a branch of the Barclay family).

It was a noble endeavour made difficult by the fact that he was living in America and his research was conducted by mail across the Atlantic. Whilst he made significant findings into the genealogy of many Morrisons in America he also drew a fanciful conclusion about Scotland that has led to a proliferation of unsubstantiated claims based on an improbable supposition: “… let every Morrison distinctly remember that he is of Scotch descent; that his name is Scotch; and that the terms Scotch-English or Scotch-Irish, so far as they imply a different than Scotch origin, are a perversion of truth, and false to history. All evidence shows that the Island of Lewis, settled by Norsemen, was the cradle of the family; that members of it crossed to the mainland of Scotland, passed into England, Ireland, and spread from there over the earth” (p 70). Nothing could be further from the truth. In reality “all the evidence” that L A Morrison claimed unravels rapidly under the spotlight of a multidisciplinary approach which includes DNA, broad socio linguistic analysis and historical research. The facts are: it is more probable that the origin of the name came to Scotland from England and spread North (with the Island of Lewis being the last region to adopt the name); which means the name Morrison is not generally of Scottish origin but more likely Anglo-Norman with multiple variations; there is no common Morrison progenitor as there are many different families with unrelated origins who adopted the name that has evolved from many different geographical regions; and finally there is no DNA evidence to substantiate any Norse involvement in the origin of the name. Most people at some stage in life ponder their origins. There is a Television program titled “Who do you think you are?” that has been syndicated in the UK (BBC1), Australia (SBS) and the USA (NBC) that traces a “celebrity’s” family tree. There are numerous books on genealogy, professional researchers and specialised commercial family tree making computer programs all designed to tap into this lucrative market. The central finding of this research is that the Scottish Morrisons originated in the Lowlands, identified in historical documents dating from the early 1400s. The Isle of Lewis is not the “cradle of the family” as commonly proposed and has only comparatively recently (1640) become identified with the name Morrison. The name Morrison is about the twentieth most common surname in Scotland today. The earliest record of the name Morrison so far located is that of “Arthuro Morison domino de Darleith” as a witness to the “Resignation by John MacRoger of Gleane MacKerne, in favour of John of Culquoune of Luss, of Gleane Mackecherne, etc. 7th February 1429” (The Chiefs of Colquhoun and their country by William Fraser, Vol 2, Edinburgh 1869 p 287). Eleven years later in the Aberdeen Burgh records in “1440 Sept. 18. Morison, Angus, of Kynkardyn (at request of laird of Drum) Council Register IV., 209” (Munro, 1890, Register of Burgesses of the Burgh of Aberdeen, 1399-1631, p 6) was the first of numerous entries found for Morrison in the Aberdeen Burgh register. These Aberdeen Burgh entries are discussed in detail later as they identify an established Morrison cluster in this region. Burgh records from Edinburgh and Glasgow at this time also show many Morrisons. Additionally the records of the Cistercian Monks in the Cupar Angus area during the 1400s identify Morrisons described as farmers. There is no single definitive theory for the origin of the modern day Morrison spelling, however it is most likely to have evolved from a patronymic form of either (1) Maurice/Morris (from St Maurice) to become ‘son of Morris’ (Morrison), or (2) Moor/Moore/More to become Moresoun (Morrison), or (3) Moir/Muir to become Muirson (Morrison). There are no doubt many people named Morrison who adopted the name for whatever reason just as there are those named Morrison who changed their name to another (such as the actor John Wayne). There are other curious origins such as the connection between the Buchanans and MacMaurices discussed later. There is no conclusive proof that has so far been found to support any one or more of these possibilities as being evidence for a single origin. In fact a single origin is a complete nonsense. On the balance of the evidence provided all of the above evolutionary origins demonstrate the more probable conclusion that the name Morrison has manifold origins in a range of territorial regions. When names were first written they were recorded as they sounded to the writer along with the writer’s own peculiar way of spelling. Many of the earliest records were written in Latin by monks whose works were later translated into Anglo Norman English or French, and finally Standard English. There are no doubt many families across Scotland who have surnames derived from a translator’s misunderstanding or even possibly imposed for the sake of convenience by giving a person a name who otherwise didn’t have one at the time. Recognition must also be given as to whether the writer was from the Gaelic Highlands or the Scots English (Inglis) Lowlands since this also led to issues of accent, dialect and tradition in the way names were heard or written. The modern form of the spelling Morrison did not become fixed until the latter half of the 1800s when Scottish records such as Census, Birth, Death and Marriage became standardised. This standardisation coincided with a generally higher level of literacy both amongst the recorders and the population in general, and led to the spelling of surnames that we recognise today. The name Morrison is more commonly found with the “RR” spelling, but some families use a single “R”. There is no rule or origin that governs the different spellings. Claims to the contrary are completely erroneous. This research has explored some of the more available historical records that identify the name Morrison in Scotland. Four prominent Morrison families from the 1500s and 1600s have been chosen as examples of the research process. These families made their mark in the affairs of Edinburgh and Aberdeen. In the Midlothians the Morrisons of Prestongrange and their cousins in Dairsie in Fife held important social and political positions by marrying into wealthy families. In Aberdeen the Morrisons of Bognie and later another unrelated family, the Morrisons of Pitfour, also made astute marriages. The Morrisons of Bognie still maintain a continuous unbroken family lineage dating from 1635, the oldest in Scotland. In the early part of the 1600s following considerable violent clan unrest in the Western Hebrides and adjacent Highlands, particularly between the MacDonalds, MacCaulays, MacLeods, MacKays and MacKenzies, a number of families on Lewis and Harris and nearby Sutherland on the mainland who had allegiances with these clans saw fit to Anglicise their names from the Gaelic. Some families whose Gaelic names were McBref, MacGilleMhuire and O’Muirghesasain adopted the name Morrison. The name Morrison did not derive from nor is it a translation of MacGilleMhuire as often claimed any more than it is a translation of McBref or O’Muirghesasain. All Scottish Morrison families have evolved from their separate and unrelated Lowland and Highland origins to become assimilated into a commercially manufactured umbrella ‘clan’. There are numerous fanciful representations of the ‘clan’ descending from Norse Vikings. This mythical representation has no basis in fact. Unfortunately, the repeated publication of this myth in historical and commercial literature has taken on the persona of ‘fact’ and is promulgated relentlessly by family name websites and ‘clan’ societies. The Morrisons of Prestongrange, Dairsie and Bognie all registered their heraldic family crests featuring three Moor or Saracen heads in the 1670s. Similar crests were also registered by the Murison and Muir families. This design featuring three Saracen heads was selected by the Clan Morrison Society of Scotland in 1919. The motto attached to this crest is “Pretio Prudentia Praesat” (Prudence Excels Rewards). Following the surge of Scottish nationalism in the early 1800s associated with Sir Walter Scott’s prolific writing about Scottish heritage and the visit of King George IV in 1822 splendidly bedecked in tartan, Scottish clans and families were encouraged to develop their own distinct tartans. Three families from the Caithness and Sutherland regions (Gunn, McWilliam and Morrison) selected pattern sett variations of the green MacKay tartan of 1819. A different red Morrison pattern sett of unknown origin was also worn in the 1800s which allow Morrison families today a choice of two tartans, a green or a red. In addition to the myths about the origin of the Morrisons there have also been some spurious claims made about the evolution of the Morrison tartans, however the facts are that both the Green and Red tartans were in common use before 1879. The Scottish History of the Morrison Origins “There was, not surprisingly, a certain coolness from some who felt their illusions had been shattered and some who had vested interests in ‘clanship’” Gordon Donaldson (1995, p 89). Chapter 1 Introductory comment This research questions the origins of the name Morrison in Scotland. The findings that are presented reach an evidence based conclusion that the commonly published stories of the name originating on the Isle of Lewis are false. This conclusion is self evident after analysing historical and contemporary literature supported by DNA sampling and genealogical data. Generally speaking extensive quotations are by convention not academic practice, however in the context of providing readers with as much historical evidence and a feeling for the historical background this convention has not been followed. In some of the issues covered there are many unanswered questions created by the lack of primary evidence, however tentative answers can be arrived at on the balance of probabilities. What is definite is that the Morrison name originated on the mainland, most probably from the Lowlands, and has evolved into the current spelling from a variety of alternative spellings attached to numerous unrelated families over a broad regional landscape. Morrison DNA and the Settlement of Scotland According to Moffat and Wilson (2012, p xiii) “Until 9,000 BC, Scotland was empty of people and animals”. Some of the earliest evidence of movement into Scotland comes from a dig at Cramond near to where modern Edinburgh stands today. Analysis of shells found there suggests settlement “between 8,600 BC and 8,200 BC. These were the earliest traces yet found of the first people to come to Scotland… We are all, of course, descended from southerners, even those who live in Shetland, Iceland, Lapland and the very farthest extent of of human settlement in the north” (Moffat and Wilson, 2012, pp 34-5). According to Magnusson (2001, p 3) the discovery of an arrow head in early 1984 in Kinloch dated to about 7000 BC “was the earliest human settlement yet discovered in Scotland, dating from the Mesolithic (Middle Stone Age) period, nearly nine thousand years ago”. Then later, discoveries of standing stones on a site named Calanais on the Isle of Lewis date settlement there to around 3000 BC. The people of Lewis refer to these standing stones as “Fir Bhreige (‘False Men’): It is left by traditione that these were a sort of men converted into stone by ane Inchanter. Others affirme that they were sett up in places for devotione" (John Morisone of South Bragar, c 1684, quoted in Magnussen, 2001, p 7). The earliest settlements in Scotland therefore took root in the Lowlands before moving north to the highlands and across into to the Northern Isles as the climate continued to moderate and were populated by groups of simple hunter gatherers. Moffat and Wilson (2012) argue that DNA shows M284 and M26 as some of the earliest markers. Other early markers include the Y DNA M423 and mt DNA U5 and the common H1 and H3 groups. Following these discoveries research shows the early settlers were followed by more persistent farming families carrying the M269 marker with its distinctive R1b which makes up about 70% of men carrying it in Scotland today. M269 is thought to have originated in Southeast Europe in the early Bronze Age. Other descendants of these farmers carry the M172, M201 and M35 markers and point to settlement in the south of Scotland where they still cluster today. When examining the DNA distribution of Morrisons in Scotland it becomes clear that the idea proposed by L A Morrison (1880) that the cradle of the Morrisons was the Hebridean Isles of Lewis and Harrris based on Viking mythology cannot be true. DNA distribution demonstrates the fallacy of this claim. If it is true that the Morrisons evolved from many different origins and that the name Morrison is about the 20th most common name in Scotland today then one might expect to find Morrisons carrying a variety of DNA. It would probably also mean that the majority of Scottish Morrisons would have as their DNA M269, the most common DNA in Scotland. Alternatively, if the Morrisons came from Norse Vikings as per the popular mythology and all came from a single progenitor then they would carry the Norse DNA. According to Moffat and Wilson (2011, p 183) “In Lewis, there are many men with this particular marker [S142], some in a group known as the Ultra-Norse - clearly one with a Viking provenance”. None however are Morrisons. Of all 430 people tested (as at May 2015) as part of the Morrison DNA project not a single result demonstrates Norse origins. Although far from being a statistically reliable study, if one takes the sample of Morrisons who are members of the Morrison DNA Project (http://www.geneticousins.com/morrison) it is evident that the so called “Clan Morrison” could not have originated in the Hebridean Isles of Lewis and Harris. Scottish Morrisons (that is, only those Morrisons who are identified with Scottish locations such as Lewis/Harris, Aberdeenshire or Fife for example) who have submitted their DNA, the following are some of the Haplo Groups identified: R-M269, R-L21, R-P25, I-L161, I-M253, R-L48, I-P37, R-M222, R-L1335 and R-P310. The DNA of those tested from Lewis/Harris is R-M269, I-M253, R-SRY10831.2, R-L48 and R-P310. The adjacent mainland around Eddrachillas has R-M269 and R-L47>Z159, families that were supposedly from the original settlement of Durness which is discussed later. These irregular samples would tend to support the general rule that the R-M269 DNA marker is the most common in the general Scottish population, and also amongst people carrying the Morrison name. Since M269 is one of the oldest identified DNA markers (according to Moffat and Wilson) in Scotland it suggests the original Morrisons in Scotland came from the South and slowly migrated North over the evolving years of human settlement. The resultant population differentiation from the northward migration is given by Matheson (2014) who discusses at length the long history of political and military interference by the English in Scotland: “England’s prolonged attempt to subjugate her northern neighbour halted work on nation-building and crystallised the country into three distinct cultural zones: the Lowlands, the Highlands and the Islands. The most feudalised of these was the Lowlands in the south and east of Scotland. This was the heartland of the state … [and] possessed the richest land for cultivation, the best trading contacts with Europe across the North Sea and the chief towns and ports, but it was also the most exposed to attacks from England. About two-thirds of the population lived here, wore the breeks … and spoke Scots. [In] the Highlands … people spoke Scots-Gaelic, were even more clannish than the Lowlanders, wore belted plaid … and conducted a pastoral economy based on cattle and other stock. [The Isles] had only been added to the Scottish kingdom in the second half of the 13th century … The people were Gallgaels (i.e. foreign Gaels) of Norse-Celtic stock who spoke in a Gaelic tongue and had a warlike Viking tradition of trading, raiding and piracy… “ (pp 79-80). Looking back in Scottish history, the sociocultural ways of Lowland life were pushed North and accelerated by political forces. King David had at his disposal Anglo Norman warriors and English barons to enforce the feudal system on the Scots. About the year 1160 Malcolm IV, David’s grandson, is said to have removed a large number of the old inhabitants of the district of Moray from their homes, and planted strangers from the Lowlands in their place. Then later in the 1200s and early 1300s the English King Edward 1, the “Hammer of the Scots”, created panic in the Lowlands and no doubt many families fled north to escape his punitive raids. As the pace of social and political change intensified during the 1400s the first Morrisons are identified by surname. The Register of the Great Seal of Scotland, Vol 1 (AD 1306-1424) identifies the name “Mauricius” in “Dunblanen”. “Mauricius” is a Latin spelling, and could be an early form of the modern spelling Morrison derived from “Morris”. However, some of the earliest Morrisons are more clearly identified such as “Arthuro Morison domino de Darleith” and “Morison, Angus, of Kynkardyn” and many others in the Burgh records of Aberdeen, Edinburgh and Glasgow and in the records of the Cistercian Monks in the Cupar Angus area discussed below. By the 1500s many Morrisons were identifiable in the historical Burgh records where they showed an active involvement as burgesses and merchants. In 1640 the first Morrison to be recorded on the Isle of Lewis and Harris was the Rev Donald Morrison. MacCoinnich (2015) hypothesises that for Lewis/Harris families originally named McBref, MacGilleMhuire and O’Muirghesasain anglicising or replacing their original Gaelic names to Morrison began after 1640. The practice of “rebranding” a surname was relatively common amongst Scots who migrated from the Isles and Highlands to the Lowlands, either searching for work or escaping oppression. “Shortening or dropping the prefix "Mc" or "Mac", or anglicising a gaelic surname, or indeed changing the surname altogether for a similar sounding English one, which would be easier to pronounce and would conceal one’s origins, were quite common occurrences … Lowland clergymen in charge in the Highlands or the Shetland Isles sometimes took the opportunity to anglicise a name in the records” (Scotlands People: Scottish Surnames and Variants, 2016). What’s in a name? Some people hold a belief that a name somehow represents a common relationship between all others sharing that name. Thus, if your name is Morrison it follows that sometime in the past you shared a male relative whose name was Morrison. This belief is reinforced by writers of commercial Scottish clan histories who make fanciful claims about the origins of the clans. Lenman (1984) in his detailed analysis of the Jacobite risings clarifies the oft misunderstood origin of the clans: ”The Gaelic term clann, meaning children, is as much a hindrance as a help when it comes to analysing the historical reality of the Highland clans, for though the concept of kinship which it implies was important as a cement within the clan society, it was never adequate as a binding agent in its own right, and in the early modern period it can be shown, in most cases, to be based mainly on make-believe rather than rooted in genealogical fact. In the case of northern clans such as Grants, Chisholms and Frasers, whose chiefs were probably all of Norman origin, there cannot possibly have been any blood-tie between the first chief and his people. The surnames which are the hallmark of modern clans were not in general use in the Highlands before the seventeenth century” (p 138-139). The most common myth about the origin of the Morrison name associates it with a group of Hebridean islanders who were reputed to be descended from Norse Vikings. The study of available scholarly literature and DNA evidence demonstrates that this claim is false, particularly the demonstration of the spread of DNA markers from the Morrison “genetic cousins” website. The fact that many families today wish identify themselves as being of “Viking blood” is stretching the significance of DNA testing a bit far. In an article titled  “To claim someone has ‘Viking ancestors’ is no better than astrology” Mark Thomas, professor of evolutionary genetics at University College London wrote: “The simplicity of how Y chromosome and mitochondrial DNA are inherited is part of their appeal in ancestry testing: you don't have to worry about that inconvenient doubling of your ancestors with each generation back in time. You only have one father, one father's father, etc. But the price of that simplicity is irrelevance: those two lineages represent a rapidly diminishing fraction of your ancestry the further back in time you go. It may be the case that your mitochondrial DNA lineage came to Britain with the Vikings – although that would be extremely difficult to demonstrate scientifically – but if true, this would still say very little about your origin. …[A]ncestry testing is aimed at individuals, although in reality the statements made are sufficiently general that they could be true for a large number of people. This is reminiscent of the "Forer effect" in psychology – the observation that individuals will tend to believe descriptions of their personality that supposedly are tailored specifically for them, but are in fact vague and general enough to apply to a wide range of people. The same effect has been used to explain the popularity of horoscopes”. (published in The Guardian, Tuesday 26 February 2013). The mythical fable about the Norse origin of the Morrison name suggests there was a single progenitor, meaning all people with the name Morrison are related. To reinforce this point by way of a tongue in cheek example, could we say that the 2010 President of Nigeria, Goodluck Jonathan, is related to David Jonathan of Sussex in the UK and Jacob Jonathan in Miami USA? They all share the same surname, therefore they must be related. But what if it turns out that David Jonathan adopted his name from his foster parents who raised him when his biological parents were killed in a German bombing raid in WW2. Jacob Jonathan from Miami got his surname from his father, a Polish refugee from WW2, who changed his name from Janusz Jarogniew to John Jonathan. Consider also males named Morrison at birth who later changed to another name, for example, the legendary American screen actor John Wayne. He was born Marion Robert Morrison, but when he began his acting career a producer convinced him to change his name to John Wayne. Does this mean people with the surname Wayne are related to John Wayne? There is also this example in 1782 of a male surname being changed to the wife’s surname when Isobel Morrison (eldest daughter of James Morrison of Naughton) married: “Isobel Morison, of Naughton, Bogley, Drummie, Nydie, &c., b. 1760, m. William Bethune, of Blebo, eo. Fife. This gentleman, paternally Chalmers, m. 1st, in 1782, Margaret, sister and heir of Henry Bethune, of Blebo, and assumed that surname… He afterwards took the additional surname of Morison, and had an only child, Isobella Maxwell Morison” (Burke, Online, p 2117). To help the reader understand the complexity of the anthroponomastics of the surname Morrison in Scotland, it is important to state from the outset there are a multitude of origins for the name Morrison, just like the name Jonathan above, and only a few close knit communities existing today have within them any kin who can at best be traced back a few hundred years. Unless you are related to one of the ancient kings or noble families of Scotland authenticated by the historical records then in reality who you descend from is anybody’s guess. There are few reliable historical records available to verify family relationships dating back to early Scotland. In terms of tracing Morrison family origins the often quoted myth about the Vikings who invaded the Hebrides in the 9th Century is, according to John Morrison (quoted in Thomas, 1876-78) and Captain F W L Thomas (1876-78), the starting point for all the Morrisons in Scotland. Should we blindly accept their assertions as fact? This is how the myth began. The seventeenth century “indweller” John Morrison of Lewis (quoted by Thomas (1876-78, p 504)) wrote: “The first and most ancient inhabitants of this countrie [Lewis] were three men of three several races, viz. Mores, the son of Kennanus, whom the Irish historians call Makurich, whom they make to be naturall son to one of the kings of Norovay, some of whose posteritie remains in this land to this day. All the Morrisons in Scotland may challenge their descent from this man”. L A Morrison (1880) appears to have blindly accepted this claim and by what he read in Thomas’ article and concluded “… These traditions all point in the same direction, and establish beyond reasonable doubt the common origin of the family, and Lewis as its early home” (1880, p 20). As previously documented no Morrison DNA tested on Lewis/Harris or any other region show any Norse DNA, and it is also of importance to state that the Morrisons who claim Irish descent who have been DNA tested do not show any evidence of Norse genetics either. Far from being the origin of the name Morrison in Scotland, the Morrisons of Lewis and Harris are a comparatively recent group of Morrisons who simply adopted or Anglicised their Gaelic names some time early in the 1600’s. Well before these families from the Hebrides there were people using the name Morrison who were settled throughout the Lowlands whose ancestors had probably moved north into Scotland at a time before 1400 when the name was first translated in historical documents “Arthuro Morison domino de Darleith” as a witness to the “Resignation by John MacRoger of Gleane MacKerne, in favour of John of Culquoune of Luss, of Gleane Mackecherne, etc. 7th February 1429” (Fraser, 1869, p 287). Other less recognisable but possible references can be found in the Register of the Great Seal of Scotland are “Mauricius” (Vol 1, 1306-1424) and “Makmurison” (Vol 2, 1424-1513). To put these dates into an historical perspective, the Scottish King James I was assassinated in 1437, and in 1446 William Sinclair commenced work on Rosslyn Chapel. The origins of family names is not dissimilar to the geographic origins of Scotland. The Scottish BBC TV documentary presenter Neil Oliver gives an excellent overview about the beginnings of Scotland in the series titled ‘A History of Scotland’ (2008-2009) from the time of the violent tectonic, glacial and volcanic actions upon the landscape, the peopling of the land and their ever so gradual and eventual intermixing and settled ways of life. Moffat and Wilson (2011) detail their theory of genetic migration into Scotland from the time of the melting of the ice that covered the landscape around 9,000 BC. What Scotland never had were pockets of discrete clans that emerged spontaneously dotted all over the map who were identified by tartans and traditions. The clans, identified by surnames, evolved slowly through history with changing allegiances and bloody clashes over ever changing territorial boundaries. Moffat and Wilson (2011) give a compelling insight into the peopling of Scotland through DNA analysis: “Every Scot is an immigrant. Until 9,000 BC, Scotland was empty of people and animals. For 15,000 years, ice, more than a kilometre thick in places, had crushed the land under pitiless white sterility where nothing could live. When the ice sheets finally retreated, small bands of pioneers moved north into a virgin landscape” (p xiii). They further make the point that “As well as Y chromosomes, men inherit surnames and, as these came increasingly into common use in the early modern period, they help set genetic findings against a familiar background. For example, Scotland’s Highland clans often claim descent from a common name-father but recent research shows that some of these men may have been fathers in more than name only” (p xiv). Broad “family name” groupings that we recognise today as “clans” evolved over time, and even then they were subject to infusions of outside genetic material with the inevitable ebb and flow of boundaries and invasions. Added to this, not all members of a clan necessarily shared a common surname for it was normal practice for families living within the clan lands to adopt the name of their chief. The clan industry we see today is really a nineteenth century invention, fuelled by eager tourism marketers keen to profit from the sale of clan bric-a-brac and popularised by the Hollywood award winning film Braveheart (Mel Gibson, 1995). Braveheart is littered with sentimental nonsense about William Wallace (1270- 1305) and historical inaccuracies. It even has a part for a Lanark villager named Morrison whose wife was the victim of a so-called practice of Primae Noctis in 1296. This filmic character would make him the first person in Scotland to have the surname Morrison, a name that did not become as a recognisable written surname until the early 1400s. The multiple origins of the Morrison surname What does claiming to be Scottish mean? Scottish people have evolved from an amalgamation of Picts (northern Scotland down to the borders), Gaels (the Western Isles and South West Scotland), Britons (from the south moving north across the border country) as well as the Romans, Normans, Norse Vikings and Germanic peoples such as the Anglo-Saxons and Flemish who all had a significant influence on the genetic mix. Then there were the European traders such as the Poles and the Dutch who brought further ethnic mixes into the equation. The French had a significant impact around the time of Mary Queen of Scots. George F Black (1946) cites, for example, the origin of some families in Buckhaven in Fife being from a Dutch ship that was stranded about the time of Phillip II of Spain in 1556 (p xix). Modern Scots are therefore like the crystals in a kaleidoscope, the more you turn the viewer the more the pattern changes. For some Scots, particularly in the Orkneys and Western Isles in the 9th Century the Vikings infused themselves into all aspects of their lives. The Scandinavians from this time held suzerainty over the Orkneys, the Western Isles and the Hebridean Isles (including Skye, Harris and Lewis) until 1266. However, the most fluid ethnic influences came from the ebb and flow across the lowland borders where successive waves of Angles, Romans, Normans and English swept into what is now Scotland attempting to either tame the “savages” or claim sovereignty. The Lowlands became a melting pot of genetic variety. So who are the Morrisons? They are a blend of peoples who by history or desire either became known as Morrison or who changed or adopted the name. If you analyse the genetic makeup of people calling themselves Morrison today you see a spectrum of DNA meaning one thing, there is no common descent. They are a heterogenous mixture. These different people were drawn together in the 1800s by an institutional decree insisting on the uniformity of spelling surnames so that public documents could become reliable and traceable records, for example, births, deaths and marriages. The Earliest Morrisons Buchanan (1723, p 2) wrote “The existence of any Surnames as now used before the reign of King Malcolm Canmore, which commenced in the year 1057, is vigorously controverted by a great many of this age; and the first surnames which commenced in, or shortly after that reign, were local surnames, or those denominated from the lands first acquired by the assumers of these surnames”. According to Black (1946, p xiii) “[T]he use of fixed surnames or descriptive names appears to have commenced in France about the year 1000, and such names were introduced into Scotland through the Normans a little over one hundred years later, though the custom of using them was by no means common for many years afterward”. The first Scots to have surnames were those of noble lines and wealthy landowners. To tie this in with historical reference points in Scotland in the years 1057-1093 AD Malcolm Canmore (who succeeded MacBeth) became Malcolm III, King of Scotland. King Malcolm III reigned for thirty-five years, and one of his historical legacies was the securing of the border country between Cumbria and Northumberland. After the Normans arrived in Britain in 1066 their conquest drove many of the English aristocracy north into Scotland, including Princess Margaret of Hungary, the granddaughter of Edmund Ironside (half brother of Edward the Confessor). At this time Malcolm Canmore was a widower. When he heard that Edgar the Atheling and his mother and two sisters had landed in Fife he rode from Dunfermline to greet them. It is recorded that he fell in love with the flaxen haired beauty Margaret (one of Edgar’s two sisters) and married her. This marriage produced children who became future kings of Scotland and princesses who married into English royalty (see Magnussen, 2001, p 65). The following years of Malcolm’s reign saw many battles between the Scots and the English Normans which eventually led to Malcolm and his son Edward being killed by Robert de Mowbray. It is from this period of Scotland’s history that the Norman influence becomes most noticeable, particularly during the reign of David I (1124-1153). David I had many English friends such as the Bruces, Balliols and Stewarts to whom he gave large grants of land. His allegiances to the Benedictine and Cistercian monks saw their influence expand through the borders into the Lowlands by way of Abbeys and business enterprises, building settlements and employing many people. These settlements were based on Norman administrative structures of authority and management: a castle, walled settlement, tax collectors and well educated priests who controlled the local commerce and burgh affairs. So we have from Malcolm III to David I a rapid expansion of Norman influence throughout the fertile Lowlands. This was augmented by Henry II of England expelling all Flemish people in 1155. Many of their number ended up in Scotland, particularly in Fife around St Andrews and up into Aberdeenshire. Around 1160 Malcolm IV is recorded as “planting” many Lowlanders into the Moray region and forcing out the original inhabitants. Readers might like to keep this fact in mind when assessing the evidence of the possibility of the name Morrison originating in the Lowlands in much the same way Gilmore did. From the time of David I onwards burgh settlements saw surnames of English and Flemish backgrounds appearing including some which were associated to trades such as “goldsmith”. A document described by Cosmo Innes to date from 1200 identifies such names as Gilchrist (Gillecrist) and Gilmore (Gylmor) living in the Midlothians (Black, 1946, p xxi). The Ragman Roll of 1296 is remarkable for the recording of names that clearly show English ancestry (see Black, pp xxi-xxiv). Thus there is a clear and unambiguous pattern of the spread of Anglo Norman surnames into the Lowlands of Scotland. Morrison Clusters Many Morrison clusters have been identified throughout Scotland after moving north from the Borders through to the Lothians, Fifeshire, Perthshire, Forfarshire, Aberdeenshire, then later in Ross and Cromarty before the final cluster on Lewis and Harris was established following their adoption of the name Morrison in the 1600s. Other areas around Glasgow, Stirling and Clackmannanshire saw early Morrison establishment. There are also strong associations with the name Morrison in Ireland and England. Today the name Morrison is recorded as about the twentieth most common name in Scotland, and is prominently seen throughout the UK via the Morrison chain of supermarkets and fuel distributers established in Yorkshire by an English Morrison family. If one looks at all the evidence then any proposition that the name Morrison came from a single source is quite erroneous. There are in fact numerous distinct Morrison groupings that have been identified, but since the time of Walter Scott in the early 1800s they have somehow been subsumed under one umbrella “clan” to satisfy a market hungry for ancient myths. As has been shown, DNA testing demonstrates the diversity of origin. David Moody attempts to disentangle the common belief that all members of a “clan” are related. Quoting Donaldson (1995) on the subject of surnames Moody suggests “casual assumptions or guesses about kinship and descent based solely on surnames are no substitute for serious research into ancestry (p 86). Further, he agrees with Donaldson’s major point regarding the unwarranted assumption ... that individuals sharing a surname have, or at some time had, blood relationship with one another” (p 87) because it is based on a false assumption. The key here is the difference between genealogy (the study and tracing of lines of descent) and etymology (the origin and meaning of names). That is, just because your name is Morrison does not mean you are related or that your early ancestors were Morrisons. This is further distorted by the origins of the name which suggests a variety of sources based on both the etymology and ethnography of human migration (that is for example, Pict, Gael, Germanic, Anglo-Saxon, Norse, Roman or Norman just to name a few!). Cosmo Innes is quoted in the ‘Miscellany of the New Spalding Club’ which was printed as a ‘Note on names in the Register of Burgesses’ from his essay titled ‘Concerning Some Scotch Surnames’: "I wish you would turn back with me to the twelfth or thirteenth century, and fancy your-selves dwelling in a Scotch town in the time of King William the Lion, or his son Alexander II. The place to which you will be pleased to bear me company is a little burgh by the sea-shore, and where a river's mouth gives shelter to a few rude fishing boats, and one or two barks of larger size”. The “Note” goes on: “He then goes on to ask how the people in his burgh were distinguished from each other by names. That Aberdeen was the burgh he had in view seems most likely. The list of Burgesses here given, beginning in the year 1399, is therefore most interesting, as the earliest list of names of Aberdeen folk known to exist. The date of it is considerably later than that selected by Cosmo Innes. Consequently the changes which were going on in nomenclature in William the Lion's time are now less apparent, and the methods of naming have, so to speak, become crystallised (Miscellany of the New Spalding Club, 1890, pp xl- xliii, Note on the Names in the Register of Burgesses). Traditionally there are numerous ways a surname evolved. Cosmo Innes (1890, see the footnote for his examples) lists nine potential origins: (1) Territorial names, (2) Patronymics, (3) Trades or occupations, (4) Personal qualities, (5) Foreigners or travelled Scots, (6) Names from signs, (7) Names from Saints, Apostles etc, (8) Certain Norman Names belonging mostly to the Territorial Class, and (9) Celtic Names. Barber (1894, p 6) suggests at least eight ways that a surname could have come into being: (1) Nicknames, (2) Clan or tribal names, (3) Place names, (4) Official names, (5) Trade names, (6) Christian names, (7) Foreign names, and (8) Foundling names (See Footnote below for examples regarding Cosmo Innes’ description of the origin of names, p 22). Establishing the origin of many surnames in Scotland is no easy task since for some the name they were given bore no genetic link to paternity. From the list of early spellings of the name Morrison many Morrisons may have come from patronymic forms of Muir (Muireson), More (Moreson or Moresoun) or Maurice (Mauriceson). There are a host of spellings scattered throughout the historical documents of Scotland which have later been transcribed into the modern spelling of Morrison including Morison, Morisson, Morisone, Morrieson, Morriceson, Morason, Moorison, Morisoun, Moresoun, Murison, Muirison, Murieson, Murrison, Muresoun, Muirsoun and no doubt many other phonetic synonyms or Anglicised adaptations. A curious addition to this list could also include MacGillemorisone, a rare name found in Ardmanoch which no longer exists (Black, 1946, p 500). In addition to patronymic derivations, some names have derived from personal characteristics and “became detached from their descriptive meaning and took on a life of their own as what we call a surname, which is passed from father to son” (Moody p 88). Buchanan (1723, p 173) gives the example of a man of large stature being named “Stooping” Maurice. One of the most detailed and scholarly approaches to Scottish surnames is the outstanding work by George F Black: The Surnames of Scotland, Their Origin, Meaning, and History (first printed in 1946 at the New York Public Library). Black notes that “Morrison” derives from “son of Maurice” and “Forms of Maurice (from Lat. Mauricius, ‘moorish’, the name of a saint martyred in 286AD) ... as introduced into Britain by the Normans among whom it was popular” (p 612). He traces the modern Morrison form to Latin documents in Glasgow in 1450 when the name was “Mauricii”. In 1463 he identifies Andreas Morison, a licentiate of law in St Andrews. In the sixteenth century Scots Guards records show the spelling as Maurieson. In Kirkcaldy in 1540 Moresone, and later Moresoune, Moriesone and Moriesoun, were alternative spellings. Other interesting variations are found in Aberdeen in 1448 as Mwryson, and 1448 in Kirkcaldy as Murysone (p 621). However, regardless of Black’s scholarship, caution should be taken against automatically accepting that Morrison derives from “son of Maurice”. The plethora of early surname spellings which we recognise as Morrison today serves as a timely reminder not to leap to single derivation conclusion. Up until surnames became standardised they were often written as they sounded to the scribe. This no doubt contributed to the many variations of the spelling of Morrison. From this range of alternative spellings in Scottish documents over the past 700 years there are at least three modern surnames that can be distilled from the following list (discussed in detail in Chapter 2): de la More, Moore, Moir, Muir, StMaurice, MacMaurice ,Mauricii, Morris,Mauricius, Maurieson, Marrson, Maryson, Merson, Morrison, Morison, Morisson, Morissone, Morcion, Morisone, Morsion, Moryson, Morrieson, Morriceson, Morishon, Morason, Morzon, Moorison, Morisoun, Moresoun, Moressoune, Morrowson, Murrion, Murison, Muirison, Murieson, Murrison, Muresoun, Muirsoun, Murson, Murescun, Murysone, Mwryson, Makmurisoun, M’Mursoun, MacMaurice,Morison, Morrison, Muirson Whilst the spelling of Morison or Morrison have been the more widely accepted modern corrections of the early variations of spellings given above, the name Muirson has also persisted as modern surname in its own right. There are grounds for suggesting that all three names are related in origin by virtue of their similar family crests featuring three Moor’s heads. The difficulty in arriving at a consensus view on their origins would have to include research into the interrelatedness of the three surnames of Morris, Moore and Muir (and their various spellings) to determine if at any stage all three are but variations or not of one or more original surnames. Such a task may well prove impossible, and for many people named Morrison today determining which variant their name derived from may never be known. There are just too many “ifs”, “buts” and “maybes” to ever arrive at a definitive answer. There are no doubt many Morrisons who were once written Muirson in the original records who were “tidied up” by a later scribe, and there is an equally probable chance that some Muirsons were early forms of Morrison who were “tidied up” in the opposite way. To further demonstrate the point regarding the variations of the spellings of the same name, R R Stodart’s 1881 work “Scottish Arms, being a collection of armorial bearings AD 1370-1678” changes the spelling from “Moresoun of Darse; or Prestongrang [sic], 1643” and then writes “‘John Morison, bailie and treasurer of Edinburgh, who died in 1615, was called “the rich’…” (p 155) in the next sentence. Stodart’s citation of these two related Morrison families refers to the Morrisons of Dairsie and Prestongrange. Their history which began in Edinburgh during the mid 1500s is detailed later in Chapter 6 . There are many references which predate Black’s 1450 Glasgow claim. The earliest record of the name Morrison so far located is “Arthuro Morison domino de Darleith” as a witness to the “Resignation by John MacRoger of Gleane MacKerne, in favour of John of Culquoune of Luss, of Gleane Mackecherne, etc. 7th February 1429” (Fraser, 1869 p 287). Other early mentions include 1440 in the Aberdeen Burgh Records (“1440 Sept. 18. Morison, Angus, of Kynkardyn (at request of laird of Drum) Council Register IV., 209”, Register of Burgesses of the Burgh of Aberdeen, 1399-1631, p 6) the name “Morrison” is also cited in the Coupar-Angus area in the Rental Books of the Cistercian Abbey monks (Rental Book of the Cistercian Abbey of Cupar-Angus edited by Rev. Charles Rogers, Vo 1, 1879) dated 1443 “Redfurdhalch 21. A tack of two parts to Gothra Morison,.. Balmyle 22. A tack to Gothra Morison, Henry Androuson, Richard Morison,… “(p 121). Then another entry “Camsy with teind sheaves 56. 1449. The sixth part of Aberbothery is let to Symon Morison …” (p 127). A final reference to consider regarding the evolution of the Morrison name comes from The Internet Surname Database: “Recorded in several spellings including Morrison, Morrieson, Morison, and Moryson, this is an Anglo-Scottish surname, which is almost equally popular in Ireland. It is the patronymic form of the surname Maurice or Morris, deriving from the Latin "Mauritius", and meaning swarthy, from "Maurus", a Moor. ..The first recorded spelling of the family name is shown to be that of Robert Morisson. This was dated 1379, in the Poll Tax records of Yorkshire, during the reign of King Edward 1st, 1272 - 1307. Throughout the centuries, surnames in every country have continued to "develop" often leading to astonishing variants of the original spelling” (http://www.surnamedb.com/Surname/Morrison). The above reference for “Robert Morisson” is in fact “Ricardus Morisson” and is located in the Yorkshire Poll Tax records of 1379 described as the Morley wapentake (subdivision), Birstall Parish, Gomersall: “Ricardus Morisson and uxor [wife] iiii.d.” (Yorkshire: Some of the Subsidy Rolls (Poll Tax) for the year 1379 (Peter Nelson/Colin Hinson, GENUKI), Yorkshire Archaeological and Topographical Journals, the Yorkshire Archaeological Society). The conclusion from this analysis of the Morrison name in Scotland implies that it is Anglo-Scottish, and the Morrisons from the Lowlands were probably the original bearers of the name in Scotland, complete with their crest of three Moor’s heads. According to Moody (1988, p 19) surnames only became fixed in the Highlands in the eighteenth century. In other words highland surnames were still changing as late as the 1700s. Donaldson clearly makes the point that surnames are not an infallible guide to family relationship and pedigree: “The distinction between a Highland and Lowland origin has often been effaced when a Gaelic name has been translated into English... MacGille-mhoire becomes Morison which means that they are added to the host of unrelated patronymics spanning the whole country and with no affinity among them” (Gordon Donaldson quoted in “Scotland's History: Approaches and Reflections”, James Kirk (ed), 1995, pp 89-94). Readers should be aware that Morrison is not a translation from the Gaelic name MacGilliemhoire as often claimed. Black (1946): “Equally baseless is the modern idea that “Morison” interpreted as “Mary’s son,” represents Gaelic Mac Gille Mhuire” (p 639). Footnote regarding Cosmo Innes’ description of the origin of names: If one were to attempt to classify these early Aberdeen names, one would find them grouping themselves somewhat in this fashion: 1. Territorial names. These seem to have been introduced by the Normans, and originally had before them. Of the earlier names, the following seem to belong to this class: Balrain, i.e., Village of Rayne, now Old Rain, Burnet, Kyntor, Moir or More, i.e., Moor or Muir (Cosmo Innes thinks it is territorial and not the Celtic word = big), Inverory, Marr, Borthwick, Lownan (Lunan ?) Leitht (Leith), Buchania (Buchan), Mirden (Myreden), Lambyntan (Lamington ?), Alves, Hervy (?) Petfour, Kent, Mernys, Polgowny (Balgownie ?), Moravia (Murray), Tulach (Tulloch), Cadiou (Cadzow), Liddale, Rettre (Rattray), Vaus (DeVaux), Greenlaw, Ruthirfurd, &c,&c. The "learned" Camden says: "Neither must all having their names from places suppose that their Auncestors were either Lordes or possessors of them; but may assure themselves that they originally came from them or were borne at them. 2. Patronymics. This was an earlier form, and it is interesting to see it surviving so late as the beginning of the 15th century. To this class belong names like : —John, son of Henry, i.e., John Henryson ; John, son of Thomas, i.e., John Thomson ; John Man, i.e., John, son of Magnus, or John Magnuson (a Norse name). So we find Davidson, Johnson, Andrewson, i.e., Anderson, Alanson, Walterson, Williamson, Howison (Hughson ?), Smythson, Glenyson (son of some one from Glenesk?), Robertson. Sometimes names occur like William Andrew, which means William Andrewson, or Anderson. Besides the regular termination, son, added to the ordinary name, other forms are found, such as: for Dickson, Dickie, Dickens Jones, Jack, Jackson ; Lawson = Laurenceson. 3. Trades and occupations. Blyndcele (from sealing or covering the eyes of the falcons), Cf. Fowler, Falconer ; Bosser, Cf. Bouchier (Cotgrave's Diet., a butcher), Wodman(Woodman), Cury (Currier?), Banerman, De Camera (Chambers, Chalmers), Clerk, Sellar, Hukar (Hooker, in harvesting), Walker (= Fuller, Waulk Mills still preserve the name in many parishes), Sutar (Shoe- maker, L. sutor), Huntar, Webster, Taillor, Scherar, Baxter (Baker), Dyer, Lorymer (Bridle-maker), Littstar (=Dyer), Cordonar, Masson, Coupar, Skynnar, Flegear ( Fletcher=arrow- maker). 4. Personal qualities. Strang (Strong), Sprinct (Quick), Slynk (Lean), Yhung, Gray, Broun, Qwite (White), Smale (Small), Sperk (Sparrow-hawk), Gychon (Gudgie, short, thick set), Crusank (Crooked-shanks), Girk (Gurk ? same as gudgie), Coky, Leper, Hoggis, Wan, Sleich (= skilful, sly), Og (Celtic, young), Tode (Todd, fox), Red (Reid), Dog (Doak), Pyot, Ouhitbrow, Littlejohn, Wisman, Thin, Hardgrip. 5. Foreigners or Travelled Scots. Scot (a name the bearer had gained while residing furth of Scotland), Aberdene, Inglis (English). 6. Names from Signs. Before shops were numbered, they were distinguished by signs. Hence we get names like Bell, Lamb, Oliphant (?) (Elephant), Swan, Herrowne (Heron). 7. Names from Saints, Apostles, &c. Michaelis (afterwards Mitchell), Michaelson. Most of the Christian names are of this class, and these became surnames with son added — John, Thomas, Nicholas, Patrick, Andrew, Laurence, Philip. 8. Certain Norman Names belonging mostly to the Territorial Class are found disguised. Among these, Menzies (De Maneriis, Eng. Manners), Mowat (De Monte Alto), Vaus (De Vaux, i.e., De Vallibus), Bisset, Bruce, Cumyn, Hay (De La Haye). 9. Celtic names are far from numerous. Indeed, the population would seem to have been mainly Teutonic. Macbeth is found. So also Donald, Duncan, Og, Farcharson, Kennedy, Gillespie, Kay, Mcrave (Macrae ?), Raa (Rae), Farquhar, Findelayson” (Miscellany of the New Spalding Club, 1890, pp xl- xliii, Note on the Names in the Register of Burgesses). Note on the definitions of some Gaelic names MacGilliemhoire, the most commonly misrepresented translation is often erroneously suggested to be Gaelic for Morrison. The literal translation is “son of the servant of Mary”. Black (1946): “Equally baseless is the modern idea that “Morison” interpreted as “Mary’s son,” represents Gaelic Mac Gille Mhuire” (p 639). MacGillies, literal translation “son of the servant of Jesus” (Black, 1946 p 501). MacGilliebhrath literal translation “son of the servant of judgement” (Black, 1946, p 502) which became MacGillivray. One could reasonably ask why this Gaelic name was never adopted on Lewis. Finally, according to Colin Mark (2003, The Gaelic-English Dictionary) these two Gaelic spellings: Moireasdan and Moireasdanach, translate to Morrison. Chapter 2 The Evolution of the Morrison name The most heated academic debates often involve arguments that are contrary to a prevailing orthodoxy. If an opposing argument is strong enough it should overthrow the orthodoxy, but some adherents will never be persuaded as they cling desperately to their piece of “driftwood”. This chapter presents arguments that challenge the orthodoxy regarding the origins of the Morrisons in Scotland commonly purveyed in commercial “clan” materials and literature and perpetuated via “clan” society websites. If one enters “Morrison” into a search engine the result is a cascade of syrupy myths about gallant Hebridean warriors who descended from Norse kings and became the administrators of justice in their capacity as brieves. This in part is misplaced nostalgia, celebrating Norse folklore rather than Scottish heritage. Put plainly, all Morrisons did not originate in the Hebrides and are not descended from Norse Vikings. The Morrisons are a wide ranging loose collection of families with no essential genealogical or DNA connection. The most probable origin of the surname is an evolving amalgam of either St Maurice on the one hand, and/or the patronymic transformation of Muir or More. In between there are other colourful theories such as Sir Kenneth More and the Crusades. Over time the name Morrison has been synthesised from a variety of origins and become fixed. It could equally have become fixed as Moore, Moir, Muir or Murison, and certainly there are numerous other permutations of the name all around the periphery with some vague historical connection. What are the possible origins of the Morrison name? Making sense of all that has been written about the name Morrison be it fable, speculation, history or fact requires a similar skill of being able to weave a recognised clan tartan from all its basic ingredients without a pattern. One of the more established theories about the origin of the name Morrison is that it has mutated from the Roman Moor Legion commander named Maurice who was later canonised by the Catholic Church to become Saint Maurice. This explains but one theory in the process of evolution of the name. Next is the tricky bit, how did a single Moor’s head which was a symbol of bravery on medieval European armorials develop into three Moors heads in 1672 on the Morrison, Muirson and Moir armorials with a completely different symbolic meaning, namely gory trophies of battle? The relevant ingredients for evolution into the Morrison name are: St Maurice Morrison and the Buchanan connection The name Moir and More Sir Kenneth More and The Crusades 1. St Maurice St. Maurice, Magdeburg Cathedral, Germany Maurice (of Aganaum) was a Moor after whom the name Maurice or Morris is said to have derived. According to legend he was a 3rd Century leader of the Roman Thebian Legion. Maurice came from the ancient Egyptian city of Thebes and was a Christian who joined the Roman army. From there he is supposed to have been ordered by the Roman Emperor Maximian to harass some Christians in the Swiss area of Aganaum. Maurice refused and he and many of his men were executed. For his act of martyrdom he was created a Saint. Because Maurice was an Egyptian he is portrayed as a black man. He became the patron saint of the Holy Roman Empire from the beginning of the 10th century. According to European Heraldry the insignia of the black head was probably meant to represent Maurice the soldier saint since a majority of the arms awarded were knightly or military. Thus the origin of the Blackamoor (the black Moor head) on many coats of arms is a recognition of a church militant and champion of the Roman Church in a time when its authority was being challenged by Luther and Calvin. The arrival of the name Maurice is reported as coming to England from Normandy with William the Conqueror about 1066. During the reign of David I of Scotland (1124-1153) a strong Norman influence was introduced into many parts of Scotland. This was a result of rewarding Norman warriors with land after they helped subdue the warring Moray family. The Normans also helped David I maintain control of the the border regions, including Carlisle which was for a time part of Scotland. 2. Morrison and the Buchanan connection In a fascinating historical manuscript William Buchanan (1723, p 173) suggests there are two “Septs” of the MacMaurices who derived their name from the illegitimate children of two Buchanan Lairds: 1. Firstly, in the time of King Robert I (1306-1329) and King Robert III (1390-1406) there was an illegitimate son of the the Laird of Buchanan, Maurice (2nd Maurice) who was the 10th Laird of the Buchanans. His name was Arthur MacMaurice who is identified as a witness to a charter by Eugen MacKessan of Garchel some time between 1390-1406. These MacMaurices lived mainly in the Strathern, Strathallan and Callandar area. 2. “Stooping” (a personal or nickname given because of his large stature) Maurice, illegitimate son to Walter Buchanan (4th Walter) was the 15th Laird of the Buchanans who succeeded his father Patrick in 1474. A grand-child of Stooping Maurice was involved in a murder and was forced to flee to Scoon [Scone] in Perthshire and these descendants are now named Morreises or Morrison and live around this area through to Stirling and Culross. "There are two several Septs of these MacMaurices, descended off the Family of Buchanan at two different junctures of time. The ancestor of the first of these Septs, for any thing can be found, was an illegitimate son of Maurice, second of that name, laird of Buchanan, in the latter part of the reign of King Robert I. [1306-1329], and beginning of King David II. [1329-1371]. The first of these I find upon record, is Arthur MacMaurice, being witness in a charter by Eugen MacKessan of Garchel in favour of Celestin MacLachlan, and Arthur M'Neil, of that part of the estate of Garchel, called Auchintroig, Gartclach, & c. in the reign of King Robert III. [1390-1406]. Those of this race reside mostly in the heads of Straithern, and Strathallan, and a few of them in the parish of Callendar. The other Sept of these MacMaurices, is descended of one Stooping Maurice, illegitimate son to Walter, fourth of that name, laird of Buchanan, in the reign of King James III. [1460-1488]. This Maurice is reported to have been of very huge stature, but withal so very coarse and unhandsome, as gave occasion for his being little regarded; so that in the time of King James IV. [1488-1513], the Laird of Buchanan, with most of his name, having gone to the battle of Flowdon, left Maurice, with some other invalids to oversee affairs at home; there being at that time, some feud or variance betwixt MacKenzie Laird of Kintail and Buchanan; Kintail thought this a fit time to carry on the same, and sending for that effect, one Kenneth MacKenzie, a brother, or some near relation of his own, with eighty men, to harass Buchanan’s lands, these came to a hill betwixt Drymen and Buchanan, in sight of the latter, and being fatigued, lay down among the heather to take some little repose. Mean while, Maurice getting some notice of the advance of his party, went to get surer intelligence, and passing accidentally near the hill in which the party lay, Kenneth, the captain, observing him, went alone to him, to get information of the state of the country. Maurice seeming to take little notice of him, went still on, giving no satisfactory answer to any of his demands; which at length so exasperated MacKenzie, that he gave Maurice a stroak with his sword, not being at the trouble of drawing the same; which was no sooner done, than Maurice gave him such a stroak with his battle-ax, as clave his head to the teeth, whereupon he returned instantly to Buchanan, and alarmed the country. The party in a little time awakening, and finding their captain in that bad posture, returned with all speed back without doing the least violence. The place where this action was done, yet retains the name of Kenneth's plain. A grand-child of this Maurice, having killed a servant of my Lord Glencairn, who resided in Kilmaronock, was obliged to leave his native country of Buchanan, and go to the village of Scoon, north of Tay. His posterity in these parts, are termed Morreises, or Morrisons. Some of these came thence, and settled upon Forth, betwixt Stirling and Culross, of whom, are descended most of the Morisons in those parts. There are also some of this last Sept in the parish of Buchanan, who retain their ancient name of MacMaurice, but very few in number (pp 173-175). In stark contrast to the passionate writing of William Buchanan and his history of the clans, Adam (1908, p 296) in a similarly themed work also cites these two origins of MacMaurice in his description of the Buchanan Septs but does not mention the Morrison connection to Stooping Maurice. The Adam work also references the Morrison origins (p 276-7) but apart from quoting Sir Robert Gordon and Captain Thomas, repeats the mythology without any evidence. Overall it is a significant work that gives few references for the reader to evaluate the source of his theories and statements. William Buchanan’s account of the Maurice/MacMaurice/Morrison history should be placed in the basket along with other unsubstantiated family myths since there is no verification of the veracity of the story. 3. The name Moir, More, Moor, Moore, Mure and Muir From his research Henry Paton (in Alexander Moir, 1913) believed the name More existed in England at the time of the Domesday Book in 1086 (written as de More). There are other names in the Doomsday book which also lend themselves to the possibility of corrupted pronunciations such as “Morin” (that is, son of Morin would become Morinson) and so also for “de Moriton" and “Moruuin” if entered as “traditional soundex” options in the Statutory Registers of Scottish Births, Marriages and Deaths become Morrison. With regards to these “Doomsday” examples, these are very general and unproven connections that are problematic in the sense that there is no body of proof available and should therefore be viewed with caution. Norman names are well recorded in early historical documents, including those researched by Henry Barber (1894) such as “Morries, Mourreis, Murres. D.B. [Doomsday Book] Mauric* [tenant in chief], Marais, loc. n. [place name in Normandy]” (p 73). Later there is the reference to the name Morriss from the French Maurice or Morisse which appears in the Roll at Battle Abbey as Morries (Barber, 1894, p 166). Paton (in Muir, 1913) goes on to say that it was “in the form “de la More” or “Mora” that the name [More] came to Scotland. In 1213, an Adam de la Mora was sent by King John of England to the King of Scotland with a gift of gir-falcons. It looks as if he, and perhaps some others of his name, had then settled in Scotland, for by the end of that century, when Edward 1 was dealing with the Scots about the succession of the Scottish Crown, there were a considerable number of “De la Mores,” including an Adam de la More, in Ayreshire and Lanarkshire” (in Alexander Moir, 1913, p 21). It has not been possible to verify this gift in 1213 which would have been from King John of England to William I of Scotland. Oggins (2004, p 55) makes a mention of Henry I of England sending a gyrfalcon to William I in 1170. Whilst Oggins references an Adam de la Mora being a falconer, there is no mention of him being sent to Scotland. Rather, he was granted land in England by Richard I for falconry service (Oggins, p 168) some time before 1199. The name Adam de la More (del counte de Are) was a signatory to the Ragman Roll in 1296 in Scotland. The Moir surname is linked to Morrison in Mitchell-Gill’s paper “The Surname of Moir or More in Moir Genealogy and collateral lines” (Moir, 1913). Mitchell-Gill wrote: By the evidence of ancient charters, the orthography of this name seems to have been so various as to occasion some difficulty in distinguishing the different families who bore it, as we find individuals of the same family promiscuously designed by the name of Moir, More, Moor, Moore, Mure, Muir, sometimes contracted to Mr and even Moresoun, Morrison and Mureson. The name has a double origin, from Maure or Saracen, borne by foreign families in most of the continental countries of Europe, varied in accordance with the peculiar idiom of the country, and in Scotland from the Gaelic etymology Mohr, big or great, allusive to remarkable size of person. Of the five entries in the Lyon Register, to families of the name of Moir or More in Scotland, all are connected with Aberdeenshire, and bear the three Moors’ or Saracens heads. The name of Morison in Scotland bears azure three Sarcens’ heads, conjoined in one neck proper, the faces looking to the chief, dexter and sinister sides of the shield (p 16). If Morrison is a patronymic of Moir or More then the Burgess records from Aberdeen would suggest the adoption of the name Morrison took place some time around 1400 as a Patrick More (cautioner to Thomas Amfrey) is identified in 1400 as the first spelling of More in Aberdeenshire. It is shown later from these same Burgess records the name Moresoun and similar sounding spellings were quite frequent in Aberdeen. From the Colquhoun records it was Arthuro Morison in 1429 who is the first named Morrison. That is, Arthuro might have been the son of someone named More as the surname was often spelled as Moresoun. Looking at the different spellings of Morrison in early Scottish manuscripts the spelling “Moresoun” was common. This as a patronymic would be the son of More. Caution is advised before accepting this proposition since this is speculative theory and has no evidence to support it. Quoting from the abridged article by Henry Paton in the “Moir Genealogy and collateral lines” (1913), he states “There can be no doubt that the surnames Moir, More, Moor, Moore, Muir and Mure are but variations of one and the same patronymic. The form in which it first appeared in Scotland, and in which it persists for about two centuries, is More” (p 22). In fact six Mores were forced to sign the Ragman Roll in 1296: More (Mor) de Cragg, Reynaud (del counte de Lanark). More de Leuenaghes, Douenal le fiz Michel (del counte de Dunbretan). More, de Thaugarfton, Symon de la (del counte de Lanark). More, Adam de la (del counte de Are). More, Gilcrift (del counte de Are). More, Renaud de la (Renaud) (del counte de Are). In addition to More the name “Morref" could well have lent itself to becoming a broad metaphone for Morrison. There were 14 Morrefs who signed the Ragman Roll, for example, Morref, Huwe de (del counte de Edeneburgh) and Morref, Johan de (del counte de Fyf). The name Morref later became written as Murray, but given the latitude given to the broad sounding of names and their phonetic interpretation the son of Morref could easily have been transcribed from the patronymic form of Morrefson to Morrison (or Murray to Murysoun to Morrison). The SRO lists the name “Thomas Murysoun” as a broad metaphone for Morrison in Leith in 1602 (OPR Births and Baptisms 692/02 0010 0042).(The SRO lists eight options in a surname search: Exact surname, Wildcard, Narrow metaphone, Broad metaphone, Fuzzy matching, Surnames that begin with, Surname variants and Traditional soundex). When assembling these phonetic possibilities together it is difficult to conclude with any level of confidence that the Morrison name derived solely from “More” or “Maurice”, but the “More” connection certainly becomes one of the most logical if you also add the weight of heraldic evidence discussed below to it. 4. Sir Kenneth More and The Crusades Running counter to the image of St Maurice the martyr and patron saint of the Holy Roman Empire is the idea that the bloodied Moors heads on some Scottish coats of arms are traceable to the Crusades. Sir Kenneth More (de la More) was a champion knight who, in 1330, is said to have joined with Sir James "Black" Douglas and other Crusaders who voyaged to Spain with the heart of Robert Bruce. Their original intention was to sail to Santiago de Campostella which had been ordained as a holy town by Pope Alexander III (following the discovery of the remains of the Apostle James) with the promise of safe conduct from Edward III of England. Their mission changed when they learned that the King of Castile and León, Alphonso XI, had laid siege to the Castillo de las Estrellas at Teba which was occupied by the Saracen Army of Mohammed IV, Sultan of Granada. The knights travelled to Seville and offered their support to Alfonso for his Crusade to rid the Iberian Peninsula of non-Christians. Somewhere in all this legend is the story that Sir James “Black” Douglas, Sir Simon Locard of Lee, Sir William de Keith, Sir William de St Clair and his younger brother John of Rosslyn, Sir Symon Glendonwyn, Sir Alan Cathcart and the brothers Sir Robert Logan of Restalrig and Sir Walter Logan were outnumbered and killed on the battlefield at Teba. Sir Kenneth More survived and transported home the remains of the fallen Scottish knights. Both Sir William de St Clair and his brother John’s remains are buried at Rosslyn Chapel. Saracens and Crusaders. Illuminated manuscript from Les Grandes Chroniques de France. This is but another legend that appears to be on shaky ground as there is no general agreement about the event or who was present. There is doubt about the presence of Sir Kenneth More at the Battle of Teba. For example, the members of the Crusade described above does not tally with the account given by Masson (1934) when she describes Sir James Douglas carrying Robert the Bruce’s heart into battle with the Moors: “The good Sir James fell, fighting the Moors in Spain, but the heart of the Bruce was taken back to Scotland by Sir Adam de Johnstone and Sir Simon Locaid to rest there with the bones of the Douglas at Montrose” (p 161). Another version of the Crusade party by Scott (1989) also omits Sir Kenneth More. Scott writes: “Early in the spring of 1330, he (Douglas) set sail from Berwick in a ship fitted out in royal state so that all might know he was the bearer of the heart of Robert, King of Scotland, and on his way to lay it in the Holy Sepulchre in Jerusalem. He had on board six knights, linked in friendship, neighbouring landowners from the Stewart domains: Sir William Sinclair of Roslyn, Sir Robert and Sir Walter Logan, Sir William Keith, Sir Alan Cathcart and Sir Symon Loccard of Lee, and one other knight unnamed. Twenty-six squires and gentlemen were there to serve them” (Ronald McNair Scott, 1989, p 227). The Moir armorial (depicted in the discussion on crests and mottos below) has three Moor heads ‘in their gore cut proper with blood dripping arranged in a triangle’. From the question “Why three Moors heads?“ comes the response "One Christian Moir slew three pagan Moors!” An alternative obscure claim dates the origin of the three Moor heads to the Siege of Acre in 1191 where King Richard the Lionheart gained notoriety for massacring Saracen prisoners. Roderick Campbell (1901, pp 10-11) wrote this fanciful and inaccurate account: “That learned man of law Sir Alexander Morrison [of Prestongrange, see Chapter 6], who is quoted as an authority to the present day, no doubt derived his his tastes from his ancestor, the Ness brieve. For a badge the Morrisons have a drift log, “sqoidchladaich”, suggested by the logs which the storms of the Atlantic cast ashore at Ness. No other clan has this badge. Their coat of arms consists of - argent, there Moors’ heads, coupled, sable, banded of the first; crest, three Saracens’ heads, conjoined in one neck proper, the faces looking to the chief dexter and sinister sides of the shield; motto, “Pretio prudentia praestat” (Prudence predominates over price”). The tradition attached to this crest and coat of arms tells how my worthy and rugged ancestor the MacGhillie Mhoire, at the siege of Acre in 1191, was seen to fly before three Saracens, who attacked him together. His flight, however, was but a feint, and when he had drawn them far enough from their supporters, he turned and slew them one by one. The saying went round the Christian army, “One More from Scotland is more than a match for three pagan Moors,” and from this the heraldic bearings were devised”. There appears to be some degree of acceptance that the original name “de la More” has undergone a mutation to “Moir” with the Gaelic meaning of “brave and mighty one”. The battle of Teba which is the basis for the story of Sir Kenneth More (Moir) is commemorated by a memorial made from Scottish granite that is situated in Teba’s Plaza de Espana celebrating the connection with Robert the Bruce. A further connection to the Bruce is the fact that there was a Ranald de la More who was made the Bruce’s Chamberlain in 1329. Sir Kenneth could possibly have been related to Ranald, and hence his devotion to the Bruce and reason for joining the crusade. Remember these origin theories are just that, theories. There is a great deal of folklore surrounding the Crusades in much the same way there is about Norse genetics in Scotland. The more the story is repeated the more it becomes embellished. These origin theories are presented merely as possibilities. The reader has to weigh up the evidence for whichever theory they choose, including the vey real possibility that there may be more than one possibility given the variety of spellings for Morrison up until the mid 1800s. Chapter 3 Crests: The Three Saracen Heads Let us now examine some of the earliest examples of the Morrison crest which traditionally incorporates three Moor or Saracen heads as depicted in these three examples: The first example above left from “Virtuous Planet designs” depicts a stylised coat of arms, the second belongs to the author and the third example right is a photo taken at the Glasgow’s St Columba Church (Highlander Cathedral). The silver brooch below belonging to the author depicts an original three saracen head Morrison design with the “Pretio Prudentia Praestat” motto, and finally a graphic from Fairbairn’s (1905) crests. The following Moor or Saracen crests make for interesting comparison, from left to right the Morrison of Prestongrange, Morrison of Dairsie, Morrison of Bognie, Murison family, Clan Morrison Society of 1919 and the Moir family: Adam (1908, p 277) claims the Bognie arms as being those usually presented to represent the Morrisons and describes the “Morison of Bognie” arms as “Azure, three Saracens’ heads erased, conjoined in one neck, and wreathed with laurel, all proper, the faces respectively turned towards the chief dexter and sinister sides of the shield. Crest: A serpent proper. Motto: Praetia[o] prudent praestat (in price prudence predominates” (p 510). Adam (1908) repeats the traditional mythical account of the Morrison origins being descendants of the Brieves of Lewis (pp 276-277) using R N Thomas and Sir Robert Gordon of Sutherland (who incidentally never identified any clan Morrison let alone their origin) as sources. Apart from the Muir family fable about the slaying of three Moors during the Crusades, research about the origin of saracen heads on some family coats of arms suggests the three black heads could depict the Mediterranean Moor Pirates also known as the Barbary Pirates that operated in the Levant where English and Scottish traders operated in the 1600s. Moors heads on coats of arms could be recognition about fighting Moors to protect the trading routes. MacKenzie (1903) suggested “The arms of the Morisons of Dersay (or Darcie) in Fife, the Morisons of Bogney, and the Morisons of Prestongrange, are three Moors’ heads, an obvious pun on the word Morison, although tradition supplies a version of its own… “ (p 62-3). The suggestion of “an obvious pun” of Moors heads and Morrison is a weak interpretation. A stronger interpretation follows the progression regarding the origin of the name Morrison (from de la Mora to Moir, to Muir, to Murison and to Morrison) incorporating the use of Moors heads seen on a variety coats of arms and the adoption of the three Moors heads into the crests depicted above. The picture below is taken from L A Morrison (1880, p 22) depicts yet another variation of the three saracen heads and “Pretio Prudentia Praestat” motto. The Heraldic recordings of the association of Moors’ or Saracens’ heads with the name Morrison are generally only found with the original Lowland Scottish Morrison families. The only Morrisons who have not incorporated the Saracen heads are from Sutherland and Lewis. These Highland Morrisons have evolved their own separate crests. The English and Irish Morrisons also have alternative heraldic emblems. The most influential of the overseas Morrison clan organisations are the American Morrisons who have aligned themselves to the non traditional crest from a Morrison family on the Isle of Lewis which features prominently in commercial bric a brac.

With that, the power of modern marketing has pushed aside the legitimate Society crest to the point that apart from the few people who know about the history of the name Morrison in Scotland, most members of more recent clan Morrison groups probably believe all the folk tales written by popular websites and commercial publications that the Lewis/Harris crest is the Society crest. Both the following families have near identical heraldic Scottish forms without Moors’ heads: MORRISON of RUCHDI and the Rt Hon William Shepherd MORRISON (Viscount Dunrossil, former Governor General of Australia) A version of the popular commercial “Clan Morrison” crest The Motto Reference to James Fairbairn’s book of Crests of the families of Great Britain and Ireland (1905) identifies The Motto Pretio Prudentia Praestat (In Price Prudence Predominates or The Price of Wisdom is Best) attached to several Morrison families as well as Monson and Richardson. Fairbairn (1905) also lists various Morrison families and their crests on pages 398 and 399 (spelling of Morison) and page 400 (spelling of Morrison). On page 402 the names Moore “a Moor’s head” and Muir “a savage’s head” are found in some of their families. The name Monson (page 394) of Preston “three saracens’ heads conjoined in one neck, one each to the dexter and sinister, and one looking upwards” with the motto “Pretio prudentia praestat” would appear to be variation of the the spelling of Morrison of Prestongrange. However, elsewhere Fairbairn spells the Morrisons of Prestongrange, Edinburgh “Morison” and describes their crest as “three saracens’ heads conjoined in one neck, the faces looking upwards and to the dexter and sinister with the motto “Pretio Prudentia Praestat” (p 399). Thus it can be concluded that the Lowland Morrison families have a common link via the Heraldic Arms and Motto that they share. From the discussion above regarding the possible origins of the name, one was the theory that linked the history of the name Morrison to St Maurice comes from the early Latin manuscripts which suggests the name was first written as “Mauricius” (Register of the Great Seal of Scotland). Linked to this is the proposition that “St Maurice” evolved to become the Norman name “de la More”, and the Norman influence in Scotland after King David I saw this name established in Scotland. A Knight named Sir Kenneth Moir or Moor is the reputed to be behind the origin of the three Moors heads and the adoption of the three Moors heads on the family crests of the Moir and Morrison families. The conclusion is therefore that the Morrison name in Scotland is most likely of Norman origin, neither Gaelic or Norse, and spread northwards from the borders and Lowlands where the first Morrison families were recorded. The fact that the Lewis/Harris Morrisons use an entirely different crest and motto lends weight to the fact this historically more recent Morrison group are a completely different family. The forebears of this family have been erroneously promoted as the origin of the Morrison name in Scotland which is analysed in depth in Chapter 4: The Clan Morrison Hoax of the Norse Origin on Lewis and Harris. The Morrison Tartans There appears as much fable and fiction about the origins of the Morrison tartan as there is about the origins of the Morrison name. Willie Scobie (who writes for an organisation called the Scottish Tartans Authority) provides some interesting perspectives on the history of the Morrison tartan in two papers titled ‘Mysteries of the Morrison Tartans’ and ‘Territorial Tartans’: “The various stories behind the setts of the Morrison Clan provide what are surely some of the most strange and fascinating mysteries in all the long and complex history of tartan. We are left now with only scraps of written evidence, which are far removed from original sources and frustratingly lacking in coherence. It is evidence so fragmentary as to render any comment extremely speculative. The impression given is of the quite extraordinary circumstance wherein this one clan appears to have given accounts of the relatively recent emergence of two tartans, when in one case an identical sett, and in the other case an almost identical sett, can be shown to have existed at prior dates. This is all the more surprising because the reverse process is what one would more readily expect - i.e. when an ancient provenance is claimed for a tartan, but evidence argues for a more recent origin. The elements of the story concerning the green Morrison tartan (ITI 1083, now known as "Morrison Society") seem relatively simple and clear. This tartan first appears in 1880 as a woven sample in the Clans Originaux swatch book produced by J. Claude Freres et Cie of Paris. Almost thirty years later, in 1909, (according to the records of D.C. Stewart and the Clan Morrison website) precisely the same sett was invented for the Morrison Society, the alleged designer being J.G. Mackay. Two things should be noted. Firstly, a new sett was required at this time because the Morrisons believed themselves to have lost their original clan tartan. Secondly, the design of the new sett was a simple variation on the "Mackay", this being so because some Morrisons had settled in Mackay clan territory. The very obvious question we must ask is: why was this tartan declared to be new in 1909, when in fact it had been around - named as "Morrison" - since 1880, if not indeed for considerably longer? Given that the Clans Originaux collection is understood to have "disappeared" for a number of decades, it is perfectly possible (perhaps likely) that no one in the Morrison Society, including J.G. Mackay, was aware of the earlier existence of the sett. This leaves us with two possibilities. One is extremely far-fetched and the other is facetious - 1. J.G. Mackay designed an identical sett by sheer coincidence.
2. J.G. Mackay produced his design using psychic powers. There is perhaps a third, which is more credible - J.G. MacKay did know about the Clans Originaux "Morrison" tartan and he presented it to the clan. Later he was misrepresented as being the designer”. A further point in the time line regarding the origin of the tartan is added to by Leonard A Morrison (1880, p 18) who wrote: “From the pen of Mac Fhearghuis (Charles Fergurson), I take this account of the Morrisons. It was printed early in the year 1879, in the ‘The Highlander’, a paper published at Inverness, Scotland, by John Murdoch…. “They have two tartans, - a beautiful red clan tartan, and a green hunting tartan.” It would therefore appear that J G MacKay and the Morrison Society have either inadvertently or deliberately misrepresented the origins of the tartan to the Tartans Authority as there are at least two credible sources, The Highlander and Clans Originaux, which clearly point to the existence of two Morrison tartans (one green, one red) before 1880. Scobie goes on to make some uncomfortable findings regarding the origins of the Green and Red (which includes two red versions) Morrison tartans. Firstly, there is “irrefutable evidence that the Green tartan predates the claim that it was created in 1909 for the newly formed Morrison Society ... (according to the records of D.C. Stewart and the Clan Morrison website precisely the same sett was invented for the Morrison Society, the alleged designer being J.G. Mackay)”. Secondly, there are the conflicting stories regarding the two Red tartans (ITI 998 and 993). In brief, one story has it that the red tartan dates to “a piece of tartan found in an old Morrison family bible. The bible contained a hand written reference to the tartan and was dated 1747, one year after the proscription of Highland dress. The discovery was made during the demolition of a Black House on Lewis in 1935" (Scobie). The other story cited by Scobie claims another discovery reported “in the Sunday Mail of May 22nd 1938 (and presumably refer to events closer to that date than 1935). According to the newspaper a piece of tartan, measuring approximately six inches by four, was discovered among some stored clothing by a Miss MacDonald in her cottage in Portree, on the Isle of Skye. From the notes on the article there was no mention of a bible or of any written reference, and without any stated evidence to support the claim it was asserted that "the cloth must have been at least 250 years old. The notes give no indication as to how or why this tartan was identified as a Morrison sett”. Scobie presents further examples of where the red tartan came into being, all conflicting and with unsubstantiated origins. What is perhaps most damming is the fact that the most sensational claim regarding the old bible wrapped in red tartan on Lewis and a note as well as the tartan scrap from Skye no longer appear to exist, and render these “discoveries” about as credible as the fable regarding the Norse origin of the Morrisons. Besides, according to Charles Ferguson quoted above, the red tartan was known about in 1879 so this fact further demonstrates the so called 1930s discoveries as pure nonsense and invention. Finally, in terms of the Green tartan, Scobie makes some comparisons with the MacKay, Gunn, MacWilliam and Morrison tartans. Writing about the territorial nature of some tartans Scobie states: “It has long been widely (perhaps generally accepted) that distinctive tartan patterns were originally associated with districts rather than with specific clans or families. The observation of Martin Martin, writing at the end of the 17th century, that a Highlander's place of residence could be "guessed" by the tartan he was wearing, was a most important contribution to the history of tartan. Given the territorial nature of clan society it is not difficult to see how a district association with a particular tartan could so easily have evolved into a clan association with the same sett”. Scobie cites the far northern counties of Sutherland and Caithness associated with the MacKays, Gunns, MacWilliams and Morrisons as an example. The Mackay Clan Tartan was registered with the Highland Society of Scotland around 1816. It appears in Wilson's Key Pattern Book of 1819. Now compare this original MacKay with the following: The Gunn tartan was featured in the Cockburn Collection (1810-1820). The sett is essentially "Mackay", with a red stripe on the green instead of black. The McWilliam tartan seems first to have been recorded in Clan Originaux, which was published in 1880. According to the STA notes - "This is MacKay (703) with the green lines changed to red." The Morrison tartan (ITI 1083) featured in Clan Originaux in 1880, and in Tartans of the Clans and Septs of Scotland by W.&A.K. Johnston in 1906 with the red stipe replacing the green through the blue centres of the MacKay. For something completely different, the Morrison red tartan with one centred green stripe (ITI 993) Scobie quotes the Scottish Tartan Authority notes relating to the green Morrison tartan (ITI 1083) where “The Morrison website adds to the story: 'The green sett was developed by the Clan Society in 1909. Due to the loss of the Morrison original tartan around the 1700s, the Society selected a MacKay sett and added a red stripe.' So there we have it. It was just made up in 1909 !” (Scobie, Territorial Tartans http://www.tartansauthority.com). The case for the red tartan appears to suffer from the same mysterious and fanciful origins as the Morrison Green. Chapter 4 The Clan Morrison Hoax of the Norse Origin on Lewis and Harris The Morrison Myth Makers How do myths become facts? The answer is they never do but the persistence of a myth when it is repeated over and over gives it the mantle of fact. Take for example the classic film “Casablanca” where one of the memorable lines often attributed to Humphrey Bogart’s character “Rick” says “Play it again Sam”. But is this accurate? The answer is no, nobody says these words. The closest line in the film is Ilsa saying “Play it once, Sam. For old times’ sake”. Alternatively, Chinese whispers are an example of fact becoming fiction. The more stages the story passes through the more it becomes distorted. Either way, the Morrison myth is a long way from fact. There are several authors who can be attributed as the major culprits in developing and spreading the myth that the “Clan Morrison” came into being from Norse warriors who settled on the Island of Lewis. The primary myth makers are L A Morrison (1880) and his two major sources: Captain F W L Thomas (1876-78) and John Morrison the “Indweller of Lewis”. A more recent writer, Alick Morrison (1956) compounded the errors of these three authors, and since then various Morrison Clan organisations and commercial interests have embellished and propagated the mythology. The accelerant that helped ignite a plethora of clan myths in the 1800s was provided unwittingly by Sir Walter Scott, and once the Morrison fire was lit it has raged unchallenged and has been spread by uncritical “clan” fanatics. Sir Walter Scott’s place in Scottish history is celebrated in Edinburgh by a magnificent monument that dominates Princess Street near Waverley railway station. Scott rose to national fame in the early part of the nineteenth century through his prolific writing. It was undoubtedly his influence that saw King George IV bedeck himself in tartan during his state visit in 1822, 77 years after George’s great-grandfather King George II had banned tartan: “Sir Walter Scott introduced a Highland element, and members of the Clans wearing Highland dress filled the Edinburgh streets. The wearing of Highland clothing was forbidden after the failure of the 1745 Jacobite rising for the next 36 years. The visit of George IV in 1822 gave the naming of clan and family tartans a boost as Scott urged the Scots to wear their true tartan to meet the King” (Receiving Royalty: The visit of King George IV, Edinburgh Museum, 2015). If you didn’t have a tartan, then invent one, and better still, invent a myth to go with it. In many of Scott’s novels there are suggestions of an ancient Scotland steeped in romanticism that today’s gift shop merchandisers feed on to sell to tourists. For example, a passage from Scott’s novel “Waverley” titled “Waverley Proceeds on his Journey” describes his idea of a highland chief around the time of the Jacobean uprising in 1745: When Fergus and Waverley met, the latter was struck with the peculiar grace and dignity of the Chieftain's figure. Above the middle size, and finely proportioned, the Highland dress, which he wore in its simplest mode, set off his person to great advantage. He wore the trews, or close trousers, made of tartan, chequed scarlet and white; in other particulars, his dress strictly resembled Evan's, excepting that he had no weapon save a dirk, very richly mounted with silver… His countenance was decidedly Scottish, with all the peculiarities of the northern physiognomy, but yet had so little of its harshness and exaggeration, that it would have been pronounced in any country extremely handsome. The martial air of the bonnet, with a single eagle's feather as a distinction, added much to the manly appearance of his head, which was besides ornamented with a far more natural and graceful cluster of close black curls than ever were exposed to sale in Bond Street (Chapter XVIII). The invention of the many clan myths and associated paraphernalia in the 1800s was a deliberate expression of national pride designed to demonstrate friendly relations with the Crown and paint over a turbulent and brutal past. It began a host of traditions that are celebrated today such as Burn’s festivals, piping the haggis, Highland games and the kilt parades. More particularly it was during the 1800s that the kilt and the idea of a “family tartan” came into prominence. Tartan was originally a weaving technique that became distinctly Scottish and the various colours were a reflection of the dyes available in regional areas. The crude cloth was worn as a plaid from which the kilt became a later development. The association with regional tartans and clan areas developed into pattern books that locked in a family name to a specific tartan. Thus to be a true Scot one had to belong to a clan and wear a family kilt. For some, to belong to a clan required an ancient myth to give it prestige and respectability. One of the most persistent and erroneous theories about the origins of the Morrisons being Norse is based on a myth that many people today blindly accept as being true. Clan societies, particularly those founded overseas, have become something akin to cult groups. Reading modern literature one is forgiven for believing the Morrison “clan” derived from a real event in the early 13th century of the history of Scotland. Folklore surrounding the origins of the Morrisons on the Isle of Lewis include this gushing account from the Clan Morrison website: “Eight centuries ago a Norse ship struggled in heavy seas off the Scottish island of Lewis. A proud Kintyre noblewoman named Lauon stood on deck cradling her newborn infant son, Gillemorrie, in her arms while her husband, Olaf the Black, shouted orders to the crew. Despite his Herculean efforts the ship foundered. Olaf, Lauon and their son plunged into the frigid waters and clung to a piece of driftwood near their sinking vessel. Fortune smiled upon the stoic trio, and they were deposited safe but wet upon the stony Lewis shore” (Anon). Analysing the Fable The Morrison fable about Olaf supposedly occurred about 1217 after Olaf’s [Olaf the Black, 1177-1237] half-brother Reginald granted him title to Lewis during the reign of William the Lion of Scotland and later Alexander II of Scotland. MacKenzie (1903, pp 31-39) gives a full account of what he believes was the history of “Olave” [Olaf] and it is significantly different from the Morrison account. The closest story that can be found about a miraculous sea landing comes also from MacKenzie (1903) who wrote that whilst “Olave” was attacking the “Somerledians” in the Sound of Islay “they attacked a Lewis chief named Torquil, son of Tormod (Munch calls him “Torquil MacDermot”), and killed him with two of his sons. The third son, Tormod, managed to escape by jumping into a cask floating in the water, which drifted across to the mainland, whence he reached Lewis in safety” (p 37). The fanciful account of the Morrisons of Lewis has fatal flaws that should be aired. The above fable has been copied relentlessly by Morrison clan societies and followers as though it was fact. Whilst it is acknowledged that there is no definitive account of the reign of Olaf the Black a number of historians including MacKenzie (1903), Matheson (1980), Morrison (1986), Sellar (1998), MacLeod (2000) and Matheson (2014) have examined the available records, particularly as they relate to the origins of the MacLeods. One of the disputed theories about the origins of the MacLeods was that their lineage could be traced to Leod, son of Olaf the Black. According to MacLeod (2000) this is baseless: “Mr. Sellar’s paper [The Ancestry of the MacLeods Reconsidered] contradicts that of the Rev. Matheson at several points and it was out of respect for his colleague that Mr. Sellar withheld going public with his views until after the Rev. Matheson’s death. However, although their views differ at various points, these two scholars are in broad agreement over Leod’s ancestry, to wit, that in the male line Leod was not descended from the Kings of Mann & the Isles but was the great-grandson of a man named Olvir. This may surprise many clans folk because the ‘official’ MacLeod view is that Leod was the son of King Olaf the Black, one of the last of the dynasty. The main purpose of this article is to prepare its Clan MacLeod readers for a complete reappraisal of their origins by explaining why, in the field of early clan genealogy, the two most eminent scholars of recent times should agree that the theory of descent from Olaf the Black is quite simply untenable” (Online, no page number). It therefore follows that if the MacLeod history of Olaf the Black being the father of Leod is incorrect, then the claim by the Morrisons of Lewis and Harris must also be invalid since they also claim descent from Leod. Interestingly, not one of these scholars associated Olaf as having a son named “Gillemorrie” as per the Morrison fable. A Note on the Genealogy of Olaf the Black Since the above Morrison fable relies on Olaf the Black as the source of the Morrisons on Lewis some of what they claim as the history of Olaf might be useful. The Lewis Morrison story is that when Olaf’s father Godred II (Godred The Black) died in 1187 the Kingship was passed to his illegitimate son Reginald because Olaf was only 10 years old. According to the Chronicon Regum Manniae (1158-1223), Reginald assigned Lewis to Olaf, but Olaf found it to be unsuitable and complained. Reginald had him imprisoned by the Scottish King William and it wasn’t until William died in 1214 that Olaf was released. He is then reported to have gone on a three year pilgrimage to St James of Compostella in the North of Spain. Assuming this story so far is correct, this takes us to about 1217 and Olaf made peace with Reginald. According to Alick Morrison (1986) Olaf seems to have been married “before he was imprisoned in Scotland, to a ‘lady of Kintyre’, a cousin of the Queen of Man and the Isles [The Chronicon Regum Manniae suggests it was “Lanon”, the Queen’s sister]. According to Canon Roderick MacLeod, Leod, progenitor of the MacLeods, was a son of this marriage, in this particular, the Canon departs from MacLeod traditions (eg, Manuscript Memorial of 1767, the Talisker Manuscript and the Bannatyne Manuscript), which claimed that Leod was a son of Olaf’s third marriage with Christina, daughter of Farquar, Earl of Ross. Some time after his return to Lodhus [Lewis], Olaf decided to marry again in 1218 to ‘Jauon’ (ie, Joan) a sister of the Queen of Man. Reginald [the son of Olaf’s sister], the Bishop of the Isles, now took action and convening the Synod, demanded that Olaf must divorce his wife on the ground that she was cousin germain to his first wife. Olaf complained that his first marriage was not confirmed: Bishop Reginald was adamant: Joan had to go. In 1222, Olaf married his third wife, Christina daughter of Farquar, Earl of Ross, with issue four sons, Harold, Reginald, Magnus and Godfrey” [Godfrey died as a child] (pp 1 - 20). MacKenzie’s (1903) detailed “History of the Outer Hebrides” makes no mention of Olaf having a troubled landing with his “illicit” bride “Lauon" (who Reginald had arranged). MacKenzie states that Olaf died in 1237 and left three sons, Harald (the eldest), Reginald and Magnus (pp 29-39). MacKenzie makes no mention of a Leod or “Gillemorrie”! There is considerable debate amongst MacLeod historians about Olaf, including one suggestion he had three wives and many children (Alick Morrison, 1986), but all agree there was no “Gillemorrie”. Note also that the MacLeods originally claimed their decent through Olaf the Black from a child by Lauon named “Leod”. The McLeod history claims that Olaf was forced to “divorce” Lauon and marry Christina. Depending on which account you subscribe to, Lauon was a relative of Reginald’s Queen (either a sister or cousin), and the Queen attempted to have Olaf murdered by her son for Olaf’s treachery against Lauon. MacLeod (2000) cites the Manx Chronicle which names the four sons of Olaf noting there was no “Leod” (or for that matter, “Gillemorrie”) and writes that “By the end of the thirteenth century, legal claims to the Isle of Mann were being pursued on behalf of daughters of the family, implying that the (legitimate) male line from Olaf the Black was then extinct. In short , there is no historical reason to believe that Leod was the son of Olaf the Black”. If this is the case then it further substantiates the proposition there was no Morrison male line that could be traced to Olaf the Black because if there were then the Morrisons would have had legal claim over the Isle of Man. The genetics of the descendants of the King of the Isle of Man are referenced in the discussion below regarding the various interpretations of the name “Gillemorrie”. During the period of the Norse settlement the most influential clan on Lewis were the McLeods and as previously stated, claimed their origin from Leod. Sellar (1998) along with other researchers such as Morrison (1986) and Matheson (1980) have written extensively about the McLeod origins. Sellar examined four McLeod pedigrees, including one by the acclaimed genealogist historian Duald MacFirbis (who gave a Macleod pedigree in 1650) which is named “Pedigree A”: “Pedigree A is alone in giving the name of Leod’s father as Gillemuire. The others give another Olvir. Is Gillemuire then to be regarded as a mistranscription as Matheson believed? I would suggest not. Given that the Gaelic pronunciation of “son of Gillemuire” (mac (Gh)illemhuire) and “son of Olvir” (mac Olbhuir) is very similar, especially when spoken in the course of a long genealogical “run”, it is easy to see how “Gillemuire” could have been assimilated to “Olvir”, given the prominence of the latter name in MacLeod tradition. It is not so easy to explain a change of name in the other direction. In any case, pedigree A clearly does distinguish carefully between the two names, as it gives another Gillemuire as the father of Olvir Snoice. The name Gillemuire was certainly known early in the MacLeods lands, for the Harris Morrisons, to whom Alick Morrison belongs, have long been known as Clann MhicGillemhuire” (Sellar, 1998). MacLeod (2000) has the final word: “Whether Leod’s father was named Olvir or Gillemuire and whether or not Leod’s great-grandfather Olvir was Olvir Rósta, the MacLeods are of the Sliochd Olbhuir and their royal Norse ancestry comes not from Olaf the Black but from Olvir’s ancestress Helga, sister of Godred Crovan” (Online). Thus it follows that the Morrisons of Lewis would also descend from Helga if as they claim they descend from the MacLeods. Recent DNA research identifies the MacLeods signature as R1b-S68/L165, a Norse pattern found in Norway, Sweden, Orkney, Shetland, Skye and Lewis and Harris. No Morrisons have this DNA. Who then was the Progenitor of the Lewis/Harris Morrisons? L A Morrison began his research in America in the second half of the 1800s when Scotland was awakening with a new sense of nationalism. It would be unfair to criticise L A Morrison too heavily for his scholarly work titled “The history of the Morison or Morrison family: with most of the "Traditions of the Morrisons (clan MacGillemhuire), hereditary judges of Lewis, by Capt. F. W. L. Thomas, of Scotland, and a record of the descendants of the hereditary judges to 1880” since Morrison did not have at his disposal access to all the historical and scientific evidence that is readily available today. As he describes in the preface, his work was based on written correspondence across the Atlantic over many years to gather material that he relied on to write what he thought were the origins of the Morrisons in Scotland. As he stated in his general introduction “Its design is to give a history the family of Morison or Morrison; to preserve its traditions; gather up the fading memories of its past, and transmit them to those who shall succeed us”. This is a noble sentiment. However, whatever it was that led L A Morrison (1880) to his absurd proposition that states “… let every Morrison distinctly remember that he is of Scotch descent; that his name is Scotch; and that the terms Scotch-English or Scotch-Irish, so far as they imply a different than Scotch origin, are a perversion of truth, and false to history. All evidence shows that the Island of Lewis, settled by Norsemen, was the cradle of the family; that members of it crossed to the mainland of Scotland, passed into England, Ireland, and spread from there over the earth” (p 70) is naive sentiment that fatally undermines his honest endeavours. Sadly, it is L A Morrison who is guilty of “a perversion of truth”. It could be argued that his conclusions were reached by “cherry picking” from F W L Thomas’ (1876-78) work “Traditions of the Morrisons (Clan Mac Ghillemhuire), Hereditary Judges of Lewis (pp 503-56).” Thomas had collected oral accounts of the “Lewis Clans” during the 1860s. Thomas wrote that “on the authority of those around me that time out of mind Lewis had been inhabited by three confederated clans—the Macleods, the Morrisons, and the Macaulays. This statement is confirmed in a "Description of the Lewis, by John Morisone, indweller there," which is inferred to have been written between 1678 and 1688. The "Indweller" states:—The first and most ancient inhabitants of this countrie were three men of three several races, viz., Mores, the sone of Kennanus, whom the Irish historians call Makurich, whom they make to be naturall son to one of the kings of Norovay, some of whose posteritie remains in the land to this day. All the Morrisons in Scotland may challenge their descent from this man” (Thomas, 1876-78, pp 503-504). As MacCoinnich (2015) points out, the Indweller’s claim “given the climate of pedigree faking among his contemporaries has to be taken with a large pinch of salt” (p 65). L A Morrison selected the following quotation from Thomas regarding the origin of the MacLeods on Lewis: “With regard to the Macleods, the tradition is general that that family got dominion in Lewis by marriage with the heiress of Mac Nicol; but while willing to believe that Torquil increased his superiority by such marriage, I have shown in the Memoir on Lewis Place-names that Thormod Thorkelson was in Lewis, with wife, men, and goods, in 1231; and that the clan-name, Leod, in all probability derived from Liotulfr, who was a chief in Lewis in the middle of the twelfth century” (p 530). Thomas linked the MacLeods to the Morrisons in a footnote from an extremely dubious source: “Norman Macleod, ‘the bard’, who believed himself to be acquainted with the builders of the Druidical Circles, and with the origin and history of the Lewis people from the fourth century, told that the Morrisons were originally Macleods [therein agreeing with the ancient genealogy]. The chief of Macleod had a son by a young woman of the name of Mary. The lady of Macleod could not tolerate that one so born should bear the clan-name, so the infant was called "Gille Moire”, the son of Mary; hence the origin of the Morrisons. "I have also sent for another account of the origin of the Morrisons, from a Morrison patriarch, which will doubtless be more honourable than the bard's, the latter being a Macleod” (Letter, Rev. J. M'Rae, Stornoway, 12th Dec. 1860) (Thomas, 1878, p 505). This footnote from Thomas’ paper above suggests the original Morrison was a bastard son of the chief of the MacLeods, and is at odds with the “Indweller” John Morrison who claimed “All the Morrisons in Scotland may challenge their descent from this man [Mores, the sone of Kennanus]” as quoted previously. The story of the “bastard son” comes up in another variation of the MacLeod history, in particular the bloodthirsty family feud that became open warfare on Lewis between the MacLeods, MacGilleMuires and MacKenzies in the latter half of the 1500s. The bloodshed of this conflict was in part the rationale for the intervention of the Fife Adventurers in 1598. The “bastard son” was Torquil Connanach, and his history is outlined as follows: Alick Morrison suggests “For a better understanding of succeeding events it is preferable to give at once a genealogical scheme of Roderick's [MacLeod] many children. He married (1) Janet, illegitimate daughter of John MacKenzie of Kintail and widow of MacKay of Reay. She gave birth to a son: 1. Torquil (Torcall Cononach) (1990, p 7). MacPhail (1916) gives more detail: The facts seem to be these: Rorie [Roderick Macleod] married (i) Janet Mackenzie. She is said to have been a natural daughter of John Mackenzie of Kintail, and widow of Mackay of Reay. It is further said that she had an adulterous intrigue with the Brieve of Lewis, and that she eloped with John MacGillechalum of Raasay. She had a son Torquil, who was brought up among her kinsfolk in Strathconon, and therefore known as Torquil Connanach or Connaldach. Rorie Macleod denied that he was the father of this child, and alleged that he was the son of the Brieve" (1916, p 266). Matheson (2014), quoted below, has yet another account of Torquil’s paternity. To set the issue in context, the history was that the then chief of the MacLeods, Roderick “Rory” Macleod disputed the paternity of the child born by his wife Janet MacKenzie and named Torquil Connanach. Rory claimed he was the bastard son of the Brieve who was supposedly a Mhic-Ghillie-Mhoir. Torquil was brought up by his mother’s family under the control of the MacKenzie chief, Kenneth MacKenzie. When Torquil reached the age where he was able to claim his inheritance on the Isle of Lewis, family conflict erupted between Torquil and many of his half brothers, some who were also said to be illegitimate, the offspring of Rory’s three marriages and other dalliances. Two of these were Neil and Murdo MacLeod. Since the Brieve and the MacKenzies supposedly had a relationship with Torquil, they too were drawn into the conflict. The Brieve and the MacKenzies conspired with Torquil Connanach to murder Torquil Dubh MacLeod. The Brieve and six if his kin were killed by John MacDonald-MacHutcheon. To avenge these deaths Gillie-Calum-Mhoir-Mac-Ian who became the head of Clan-Mhic-Ghille-Mhoir sought out John but was captured and beheaded by Tormaid MacLeod. Both W. C. MacKenzie (1903) and James Browne (1834) give full accounts of the bloody feuds of the intra MacLeod relationships and who killed who. The history of the MacLeods on Lewis is disputed between various MacLeod historians arguing different origins, for example, as summarised by Sellar (1998) above. It is therefore not surprising that there are opposing views on who the father of Torquil Connanch was, the child rejected by Roderick (Rory) MacLeod as a bastard by his wife Janet MacKenzie. Alick Morrison (1990) claims Torquil was the bastard son of Hutcheon the Brieve of Lewis (who Alick Morrison says was a Morrison) and rejected by his father Roderick MacLeod. Donald Gregory (1881) wrote that Janet, having eloped with “John Macgillechallum of Rasay, chieftain of a powerful branch of Siol Torquil, was divorced by her husband, who, at the same time, disowned and disinherited Torquil Connanach, alleging that the latter was not his son, but the son of the Breve or Celtic Judge of the Lewis” (p 210). He goes on: “It has been mentioned that John Macgillechallum of Rasay, called “Ian na Tuaidh”, or John with the Axe, carried off the first wife of his chief, Ruari Macleod of Lewis” (p 211). Nowhere in Gregory’s work does he mention the “Brieve” by any other name, and nowhere in the body of the book or his index does he cite the name MacGilleMoire or Morrison. This would tend to support MacCoinnich’s (2015) argument that the name “Morrison” did not exist on Lewis before 1640. Alister F Matheson (2014) agrees with Gregory and states that when the relationship soured between Roderick and his wife Janet MacKenzie (daughter of John of Killen) Janet took on a lover named “John of the Axe”, a MacLeod from Rassay. When the male child was born he was named “Torquil”. Roderick rejected him but Janet MacKenzie’s family abducted the child who took him to “their heartland of Strathconon in Easter Ross. Here he was brought up in the household of their chief, John of Killen, thereby becoming known as Torquil Connanach (Torquil of Conon), a man who was destined to play a major role in future developments for the Clan MacLeod of Lewis” (p 160). Thus we end up with different accounts, Alick Morrison claiming Torquil was a Morrison fathered by the Brieve, and both Gregory and Matheson infer Torquil was fathered by Macgillechallum of Rasay who was a MacLeod known as “John of the Axe”, so who is correct? Further to this dispute, McPhail (1916) sets out some of the historical records on the relationship between Rory and Torquil, including what is described as the deathbed confession of Hucheon (also referred to as Hugh, see MacCoinnich, 2015, p 50) the Brieve ‘admitting’ he was Torquil’s father which MacCoinnich argues could well have been a political ploy by the priest who recorded the ‘confession’ and who had recently converted to Protestantism. Firstly, the document “Instrument upon the Declaration of the Breve of Lewis anent the birth of Torquil said to be son to M'Leod of Lewis, dated August 22, 1566. In Dei Nomine Amen—Per hoc presens publicum Instrumentum cunctis pateat evidenter et sit notum quod anno incarnationis Domini millesimo quingentesimo sexa- gesimo sexto die vero mensis Augusti vigesimo secundo anno regni supreme Domine nostre Regine vigesimo quinto In mei Notarii publici et Testium subscriptorum presentia etc. The Quhilk day Sr Patrik M'Maister Mairtin Persoun of Barwas deponit upon his aithe and [ ] that he being in Lewiss visiting Hucheoun Breue of Lewess that wes then in the poynt of dethe and in thay dayes wes confessour to the said Hucheoun attending to the consuetude vsit in yai tymes.

MacCaulay (1980) states that it was Sir Patrick McMaster Martin who was the priest in Barvas in 1566 who took the confession. “He is on record as having taken a confession of Uisdean, the Brieve, on 22nd August, 1556” (p 19). MacCoinnich (2015) suggests there “are several problems with the interpretation of this document” including the proposition that it was politically motivated to support the MacDonalds of Sleat (p 50). In June of 1576 after Rory had been held as Torquil’s prisoner, Rory and Torquil signed a declaration in Edinburgh whereby Rory acknowledged Torquil as his son, however this pact didn’t last long: “Rorie M'Cloid of the Lewise and Torquill M'Cloid my sone and apperand air wt our handis at the pen led be the notar vndirwretyne at our command becaus we can nocht wreit our selffis. Ita est Alexander Hay notarius publicus de mandate dictorum Roderici et Tarquinii scribere rescientium” (McPhail, 1916, p 288). Thus Torquil has two men swearing to be his father. This is an extraordinary period of intrigue, deception and brutal murder. Given the high stakes for all the parties involved it is understandable the depths some of the participants were prepared to commit to in order to obtain an advantage, the ultimate prize being the ownership and control of Lewis. Since the Clan-Mhic-Ghille-Mhoir or Clan na Breitheamh was involved in the bloodshed one way or another it is important that this be noted since this clan group later changed their name to Morrison, in all probability to get away from the stigma of their involvement in the treachery and bloodshed. Through recognising their part in the carnage of Lewis it is understandable why they would want to begin afresh so to speak, and this also appears to coincide with some “Morrisons” turning from judges to religion. MacCoinnich (2015, p 51) and MacPhail (1916, p 269 ) make the point that following the Brieve’s decision to back the MacKenzies in overthrowing Torquil Dubh the result was even the MacKenzies “heated the breiwe and his trybe”, and that “the brieve and his kin perceawing yt they were hated of all men” were unable to undo the consequences of their treason. Inventing a legend: The Ay Mac Hormaid Myth of the Morrisons of Durness There were at least five Morrisons from the Sutherland and Ross regions who were recorded using the name in the late 1400s and 1500s: Donald Morrison the Chaplain of Morangie in 1486 (MacGill, 1909, p 3), Alexander Morrison the exhorter, parson and vicar in 1562 at Alness (Scott, 1950, p 658), Andrew Morrison the collector in 1597 at Avoch (Scottish Antiquary, Vol 5, p 30), “Jasper Moresone” who was a witness in 1580 to Johne Ross, minister at “Tayne” (MacGill, 1909, p 19) and there is a reference in 1545 in the Dallas family history to a “Willelmo Moresoun” in an instrument of sassine in Moray (Dallas, 1921, p 85). Who came first, the Lewis or Durness Morrisons? We know that the Morrisons from Alness and Avoch were appointed to the highlands from the lowlands (discussed later) so they were not related to the Lewis or Durness Morrisons. So where did the Durness Morrisons come from? When reading the many articles written about the origins of the Morrisons on Lewis and Harris one could easily be led to believe the name was in common usage from the time of the first Brieves. On closer inspection we find this is not the case. Up until 1640 there were three Gaelic names, McBref, O’Muirghesasain and MacGilleMhuire that various authors such as Thomas (1878), who was probably influenced by the “Indweller”, simply gathered together and renamed Morrison. Thereafter the transformation of these three Gaelic names into Morrison became uncritically accepted. Thomas’ account of the Morrison history was based on the origins of the “Morrisons” by the “Indweller” John Morrison at some time around 1678. The “Indweller” was a relative of the Rev Donald Morrison of Barvas who was the first recorded Lewis man to use the name Morrison in 1640. However, across the Minch the origins of the Morrisons around Durness in Sutherland is clouded in ambiguity and confusion. Where did they come from, and were they related to the Lewis/Harris Morrisons? Given the proximity of Lewis to the Highland regions of Sutherland, Ross and Caithness and the fact that many of the Lewis men made their living from fishing and trading it is entirely reasonable that there would be migration and settlement between Lewis and the mainland. The basis for the original migration was said to be a “Morrison” named Ay Mac Hormaid (Aodh Mac Thormoid) who traded between Stornaway and Thurso. The Durness region is known today as MacKay or Reay country by the locals. Is there any substance to the Ay Mac Hormaid claim? Rev. John Thomson (in Sinclair, 1792, p 576) suggests that the Parish of Durness in Sutherland derived its name from the Gaelic Durrin meaning a storm, and that Ay Mac Hormaid gave it the name Durness after the Bishop of Caithness gave him the land after he married his daughter (or as Thomson says in that era she would have been referred to as “sister”). Thomson refers to this Lewis man named Ay Mac Hormaid as a “Morrison”, but was he? Thomas (1878) gives this account of the mainland connection: “The tradition of their settlement there is that Ay Mac Hormaid (Aodh Mac Thormoid), a Morrison from Lewis, who was a handsome and good-looking fellow, went for a cargo of meal to Thurso, and there married the illegitimate daughter (or the sister) of the Bishop of Caithness, who bestowed upon the young couple the whole of Diurness, with Ashir. Ay Morrison brought over with him from Lewis a colony of no less than sixty families, mostly of his own name, to whom he gave lands upon his property; hence it is that the name of Morrison is prevalent in these parts, for though the property has fallen into other hands, the stock of the inhabitants remains” (p 510). Note how Thomas quickly makes the translation of the Gaelic “Ay Mac Hormaid” to rename him “Ay Morrison.” MacRae (1921): “In the sixteenth century the parish of Eddrachillis was inhabited by by two clans, the Macleods of Assynt in the Scourie end, and Morrisons, from Skye, in the Kinlochbervie end. Behind the historic account of how it came into the hands of the MacKays there is an intriguing romance that merits preservation. Huistean MacThormaid, the progenitor of the Morrisons, was a Skyeman, who traded between Stornaway and Thurso. At Thurso he had some business dealings with the Bishop of Caithness with whose sister he fell in love and married. With her as her dowry he received the church lands of Durness and Onshore, a large estate. Here he settled a number of his clansmen from Skye, who occupied it for generations. The last chieftain of the Morrisons married a daughter of Donald Ban Matheson of Shinness, but he died without an heir. The clansmen made the widow’s life so unhappy that she fled to her father’s home, taking care to carry with her the charter by which the Morrisons held the land from the Bishop of Caithness. In her distress she appealed to the Earl of Sutherland, who relieved her of her destitution - and also of the charter. Thus he came into possession of the property. He did not find it a valuable asset, for the Morrisons, backed by the Macleods and the MacKays, refused to acknowledge his title and to pay the rents which he demanded. So obstinate did they prove that the Earl was glad to get rid of it. For sixty merks a year he agreed to give the land to Hugh MacKay, Huistean Dubh na Tuagh (Black Hugh of the battle axe), father of the first Lord Reay (p 18)”. MacBain (1900, p 137) gives an account of Donald Ban Matheson in his history of the Mathesons of Shiness, Achany and the Lews. There appears to be some confusion by Matheson historians regarding the correctness of each others accounts, but there does appear to be a consistent theme that the Mathesons and the MacLeods of Lewis and Assynt were variously connected through marriages (see MacBain, 1900, p 14). MacBain makes no mention of any family named Morrison. The second half of MacRae’s account above regarding Hugh MacKay, Huistean Dubh na Tuagh (Black Hugh of the battle axe), father of the first Lord Reay, is dealt with later. Compare the Thomson, Thomas and MacRae story about Ay Mac Hormaid with the MacKay history of Iye Mor Mackay. According to the history of the Bishops of Caithness, Walter de Baltrodin was a 13th-century Scottish bishop: “As is usual with bishops of Caithness, very little is known about Walter's episcopate. It is known he received a subsidy from the king taken from the profits of justice in the province. According to Clan Mackay tradition, Aodh Mór MacAoidh (or Iye Mackay), married a daughter of Bishop Walter, acquiring 12 davochs of land at Durness” (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Walter_de_Baltrodin and also Crawford, Barbara E., "Baltroddi, Walter of (d. 1270)", in the Oxford Dictionary of National Biography, Oxford University Press, 2004). This is supported by “According to the Blackcastle MS Iye Mackay's son was Iye Mor Mackay, 2nd chief of Clan Mackay who married a daughter of Walter, Bishop of Caithness in 1263” (Mackay, Angus, 1906, pp 11-20). A ”davoch" is equal to about 416 acres, so 12 davochs would equal nearly 5,000 acres. Angus MacKay (1906) quotes Sir Robert Gordon who wrote that “the Mackays sprang from ‘one called Walter, reported by some to have been the bastard sone of the Lord Forbese’. This Walter, he proceeds, became chamberlain to the Bishop of Caithness, married his daughter, and obtained from the said bishop church lands in Strathnaver. From the long genealogical account which follows, Walter must have lived about 1150…”(p 7). Angus MacKay references yet another version coming from William Forbes “House of Forbes’” (1667) compiled by Mathew Lumsden (1819): “Ochonochar’s third son, called Walter Forbes, went to Kaitness, and attended the Bishope thereof, and he being familiar with the Bishope’s daughter, begat her with child, with whom, fearing the Bishop’s wrath, he fled to Strathnaver, and possessed himself of the twelve davoch and land of Dromesos (Durness), then belonging to the Bishope; whereupon the Bishope, raising a number of men, went to Strathnaver, and possessed again with said lands…” (pp 7-8). This story is said to establish the original link between the Forbes and MacKays. However, Angus MacKay believes the more probable lineage is that of Iye Mor MacKay marrying the Bishop’s daughter in 1263 (p 18). Firstly, it would be a remarkable coincidence that Ay Mac Hormaid, Iye Mor Mackay and Walter Forbes all happened to marry a daughter of a Bishop of Caithness and be allocated land around Durness. Given that the Thomson, Thomas and MacRae accounts give no dates and are embellished by descriptions such as “who was a handsome and good-looking fellow” and inconsistency about marrying the Bishop’s sister, daughter or illegitimate daughter, a reasonable conclusion would be that the accounts given by Thomson, Thomas and MacRae are but a variation of the MacKay history. Secondly, so far there has been an assumption made by Thomson, Thomas and MacRae that the events surrounding the early settlement at Durness was by a Morrison. It is noteworthy that the historian Sir Robert Gordon (1630) makes no mention of the name Morrison when he wrote about the Brieves in his work about the “The Earldom of Sutherland”. Instead, he noted the Brieves from Lewis came from the “Clan-Wic-Gill-Woir” [Clan Mhic Ghillie Mhoire] (p 269). Gordon also makes reference (p 136) to a warring “tribe” named Slaight-Ean-Voyr who MacRae (1921) incorrectly asserted were Morrisons. Gunn (1897, p 43) quite correctly translates Slaight-Ean-Voyr (Sliochd Iain-mhoir) as MacLeod, not Morrison. Gordon (1630, p 92) suggests that from “this John Moir-Mackean are descended a race of people called Slaight-Ean-Voir” (race of John the great). According to Gunn (1897) the MacKays “had given Durness to them [MacLeods] in consideration of services rendered to the clan by the MacLeods of Assynt on several occasions” (p 43). Gordon’s reference to the MacLeods comes from a clan battle “Torran-dubh-riabhach” in 1517 when John MacKay and his brother Donald assembled a number of tribes, including the MacLeods, to try and conquer the Earl of Sutherland’s territory but were defeated (pp 91-92). A fuller ancestry of the MacLeods is given by Gordon (p 262) from “Tormat Macloyd, Laird of Assint.” Identifying a family who later became known as Morrison is not made easy given the fact that there never was a “Clan Morrison” in the same way as the famous highland clans. Early families were generally identified by regional names and lesser families were simply enveloped under various powerful clan umbrellas where they intermarried and provided men for clan battles. For example, in the Sutherland region if there was ever a distinct Morrison family they could easily have been involved with the Gunns, Keiths, Mathesons, MacKays or MacLeods. Given the power of the MacLeods on both Lewis and the Assynt there would more than likely have been intermarrying between the two. Despite the treachery of the Brieve against the MacLeods of Lewis there may have been enough family sympathy in Assynt to give shelter to relatives on both sides of the Lewis conflict (Assynt lies due east of Lewis on the mainland, north of Ullapool and south of Kinlochbervie). Gordon (1630) gives a graphic account about the demise of the Brieves following their treachery against “Torquill Dow Macloyd”. Firstly the Brieve and six of his men were killed in Assynt by John Mack-Donald-Mack-Houcheon (p 272). This demonstrates the ease of migration across the Minch from Lewis to Assynt. After the Brieve was killed he was succeeded by Gilcalme-Moir-Mach-ean as chief of the “Clan-Wic-Gill-Woir” [Clan Mhic Ghillie Mhoire]. However John Mack-Donald-Mack-Houcheon found him in Cogigh, killed most of his men, and took him back to Lewis where he was beheaded by Tormot Macloyd (Gordon, p 273). Thomas (1878) suggests these actions took place between 1601 and 1605 (p 517). These descriptions involve Assynt on the mainland which at least establishes that there were relations of the Brieve moving about the north western mainland in the late 1500s to early 1600s. There is no satisfactory answer to the question why the Rev Donald Morrison (grandson of Donald Mc’Indowie [Donald Macillevore] the Brieve) of Barvas chose to adopt the name Morrison in 1640. The only Morrisons so far identified were in Alness, Merangie and Avoch. The Lewis history of Morrison suggests a connection between Lewis and the mainland area around Durness. Thomas suggests this probably took place at the height of the double crossing by the Brieve towards the MacLeods: “those of the Brieve’s descendants who had escaped the fury of the Macleods took refuge with the portion of of their clan that was settled in Lord Reay’s country. When the Mackenzies had gained possession of Lewis, the relatives of the Brieve returned and established themselves again at Ness” (see Thomas p 521). Thomas notes that when Rorie MacKenzie the “Tutor of Kintaill” was granted the commission of “Fire and Sword” on 24 June 1630 one of the names on the writ was “Donald Mc’Indowie [Donald Macillevore] Brieff” (p 522). Ten years later his grandson Rev Donald changed his name to Morrison. Perhaps the shame attached to the Brieve was the catalyst. However, there is no evidence to suggest any of his relatives were using the name Morrison on the mainland at this time. There appear to be many guesses regarding the origin of the name Morrison on the adjacent mainland. MacCoinnich (2015) identifies two authors who wrote about these Morrisons: “There were ‘Morisons’, in Eadar a’ Chaolais and Durness in Sutherland that, by the nineteenth century, claimed kinship to the Morisons of Ness (Mackenzie, 1903:,63). A group bearing the name ‘Morison’ claimed protection from the Bishop of Caithness in 1576 (Wormald, 1985, 249). However this was nearly seventy years earlier than the ‘Morisons’ of Lewis who were identified using ‘Breif’ and ‘mac Breif’ and variants thereof at this time in the 1570s and not ‘Morison’ or its variants. While it is possible that the they may indeed have been ‘related’ the fact that both groups were calling themselves by different names in the 1570s suggests that caution should be exercised in relation to later claims of biological kinship. Only the family associated with the MacLeods of Lewis, however, to my knowledge, were known as ‘britheamhan’ during the sixteenth century” (p 44). Contrary to the claim above that “There were ‘Morisons’, in Eadar a’ Chaolais and Durness in Sutherland” the fact is no families have been recorded on the mainland who might have been related to families on Lewis using the name Morrison before at least 1630, making it more probable they didn’t use “Morrison” until after Rev Donald Morrison began using it in 1640. It was Mackenzie and Wormald quoted above who were the ones who made the translation to Morrison, not the families in the 1570s. The first records of the name Morrison in Caithness were Donald William Moirson in Spittle (1661), William Alaster Moirson in Subterbrael (1662), William Andrew Moirsoun in Borroastoun (1663), and another spelling variation was Murchow Mursone in Gerstone (1664) (Grant, 1902, p 5). The only contemporary writer who could have identified people calling themselves Morrison was Gordon (1630). Throughout his writing he only refers to them as “Clan-Wic-Gill-Woir”. If they had been known as Morrison, Gordon would have identified them as such as he did with “MacKay, cheeff of the Clan-wick-worgm” (p 11) . MacKenzie (1903) repeated the hearsay myth to further promote the story about Durness and “one of their chiefs” marrying the daughter of the Bishop of Caithness and transporting sixty families to Durness and “Old Shores”. We also have the conflicting stories of the family either seeking the protection of either the Bishop of Caithness or the Earl of Sutherland. Like all the later authors who repeated these stories no dates were given. The only date given about any form of mainland settlement was by Thomas who identified 1597 being the date of the Brieve’s treachery towards the MacLeods. More to the point, both MacKenzie and Wormald only add further examples of Morrison origin stories that have been quoted and gilded without supporting evidence. So what can we learn from the Durness history that may have some connection to the name Morrison? The answer can only be speculative as there are no records of this family comparable to those of other families from this region such as the MacKays, MacLeods, Gordons and Sinclairs. The lands of Durness were long under the control of the Earls of Caithness and patronage of the Bishops of Caithness. At various times “Reay Country” was the centre of clan feuds between the Sinclairs, Gordons and MacKays along with their allies throughout the 1500s. None of their histories mention the name or clan “Morrison”, and even the “clan-wick-gill-woir" only gets a fleeting reference by Gordon. In order to properly understand the clan relationships in the general area of Sutherland and Caithness the following principal families are identified: George Sinclair 4th Earl of Caithness (1527-1582) (chief of Clan Sinclair) George Sinclair 5th Earl of Caithness (1566-1643) John Gordon, 11th Earl of Sutherland (1525-1567) (chief of Clan Sutherland) Alexander Gordon, 12th Earl of Sutherland (c. 1552–1594). The Earl of Sutherland by heritable gift from the Duke of Lennox is lord superior of Stathnaver, Edderachilis and Durness George Gordon, 4th Earl of Huntly (1514-1562, chief of Clan Gordon) George Gordon, 5th Earl of Huntly (1534-1576, Lord Chancellor of Scotland) The Bishops of Caithness owned “davochs" of land at Durness in the area held by the Earls of Sutherland. Some of these Bishops included Bishop Robert Stewart (1542-1586) who was the brother of the Duke of Lennox, followed by Bishop Robert Pont (1586-1587) and Bishop George Gledstanes (1600-1604). The MacKays of Strathnaver, known as the Clan-wick-worgm (Gordon p 11). Their lineage is as follows: Donald MacKay of Farr (1529-1550), brother of John MacKay. Given charter of davach churchlands in Durness by Bishop Andrew in 1540. Y-Mackay (born about 1516, chief from 1550-1572) also known as Aodh or Iye Du MacKay, son of Donald. Married 1 Helen (d of Hugh MacLeod of Assynt), and 2 Christian Sinclair (d of John Sinclair of Duns) Hugh MacKay (chief from 1571-1614), son of Y-MacKay and Christian Sinclair. Also known as Huiston Du MacKay. Married 1 Elizabeth Sinclair (d of 4th Earl of Caithness), and 2, Jane Gordon (d of 12th Earl of Sutherland) Donald Balloch MacKay, eldest son of Y-MacKay and 1st wife Helen MacLeod (Y’s first cousin) was unable to inherit as he was declared “illegitimate” Donald MacKay, son of Hugh Mackay, became 1st Lord Reay 1628 Some of the other families identified and named by Gordon (1630) during this period who became embroiled in the feuds between these clans included the Forbes from Aberdeen, MacLeans of Duart, MacKintoshes, MacKenzies, Murrays, Gunns, Keiths, Mathesons, MacLeods and Munros. The Scottish Reformation of 1560 was a significant ingredient in the clan conflicts as it pitted those aligned to the Pope against those aligned to church reforms. However, the bloodiest conflict that is relevant to the Morrisons of Lewis which spilled over into Assynt involved the MacLeods described by MacKenzie (1889) as “one of the most barbarous, sanguinary, and fratricidal conflicts recorded in Clan history” (p 298). Thomas (1878) makes the assertion that “the Morrisons were dominant in the district of Diurness, in Lord Reay’s country” (p 510). This statement is drawn from the myth about Ay Mac Hormaid and the sixty families from Lewis settling in the district after the Bishop of Caithness supposedly gave Ay Durness and Ashir (or “Old Shores”) to him. A further migration to Assynt is based on the Brieve’s betrayal of the MacLeods in 1597. This incident is said to have caused many families related to the Brieve to seek the safety of the mainland around Assynt. The clan-wick-gill-woir or Mhic Ghillie Moire could not have been as dominant as Thomas suggests since the only authoritative source for this period, Gordon (1630), only mentions them in passing in a reference to the Lewis upheavals. Like most minor families, their only contribution would have been conscription by the major clans to bolster numbers and pay rent. Gordon (1630) makes no other reference to the clan-wick-gill-woir (Mhic Ghillie Mhoire) in Stathnaver, Edderachilis and Durness where Gordon’s family dominated. This is hardly a ringing endorsement of Thomas’ proposition that the Morrisons were dominant in Durness. MacRae (1921) makes numerous errors in his account of the history of the Durness region in his history of Kinlochbervie. His claims said to be about the Morrisons were in fact about the MacLeods: For example, MacRae incorrectly claims it was Hugh MacKay who murdered the “Morrison clan chief” whereas in fact the murdered chief was a MacLeod. Another version of this crime is told by Gordon (1630) who suggested that the murder was committed by Y-MacKay (not Hugh) in 1556 of “Tormat-Mack-ean-Woyr” who was according to Thomas (1876-78, p 545) and Gunn (1897, p 43) the chief of the MacLeods. Gordon’s version recounts that in 1556 “the tryb Slaight-Ean-Voyr rose in Sutherland against Y-Macky, for slaying Tormat-Mack-ean-Woyr (the chieftain of the race), and violating his wife, after whom Macky lusted extraordinarily, and had a sone by her, called Donald-Balloch-Macky. Y-Macky did recunter with Slaight-ean-Woyr at Durines; wher, after a sharp skirmish, he overthrew, and took three of the chiefest men among them, whom he caused behead, after they yielded themselves prissoners; by whose deaths that tumult was appeased“ (p 136). Neither MacKay (1829), MacKay (1906), MacKenzie (1889) or Gunn (1897) add the story about the violation Tormat’s wife because it didn’t happen for the reason that Donald Balloch MacKay was the offspring of Y MacKay’s marriage to his first cousin, Helen MacLeod (daughter of Hugh MacLeod of Assynt), along with another son John Beg MacKay, both of whom were later declared bastards as a result of the “incestuous” marriage. A third variant of the MacRae and Gordon account is told by Rev Alexander Falconer (1793) in his “Statistical Account” of Edderachylis. Falconer’s erroneous account included “Little John” MacLeod of Assynt slew both the Brieve and his brother at Inverchirkak and then went to Lewis and married the Brieve’s widow (p 293). Falconer also gives a version of Hugh Mackay (father of Lord Reay) beheading a man so that he could “gratify his sensual inclinations” with the man’s wife, “and of that commerce was Donald McKay begot, who was the first laird of Edderachylis of the name of McKay” (pp 294-295). Falconer claims the MacLeods held sway in Edderachylis and were regularly quarrelling with “the Morrisons” of Ashir who Falconer says were related to the MacKays through the bastard son Donald (Hugh being the father). Further, Falconer suggests, the Morrisons formed a plot to get the MacKays and others to kill James MacLeod which they did. Falconer also has a version of the popish Bishop of Caithness’ “tocher” to “Ay Morison, son of Norman” and the settling of sixty families from Lewis. He notes that after several generations the last chief died without an heir, and his widow (a daughter of Donald Bain Matheson) took the title deeds to the Earl of Sutherland who eventually ceded the title to the MacKays for a feu duty of 60 merks a year (pp 295-299). MacRae’s (1921) story about a “Black Hugh” murdering the chief of the Morrisons and marrying his wife is nonsense as are the Gordon (1630) and Falconer (1793) variations. MacRae said they then had a son Donald Balloch MacKay known as “spotted Donald” who had a red mark on his face because a balloch was said to be the blood of his mother’s first husband, a Morrison, murdered by Hugh. Gordon (1630) identifies MacRae’s “Black Hugh” MacKay as Y-MacKay. It couldn’t have been Hugh MacKay as his two male children were Donald (who became Lord Reay) and John. Y-MacKay’s “illegitimate" sons by his first marriage to his first cousin Helen were Donald Balloch and Jon Beg. MacKay histories do not mention any other “Donald Balloch” offspring or the Falconer version. It would indeed be strange that there could be two sons of Y-MacKay who were illegitimate with the same name. The only other MacKay that could possibly be implicated if such a story were true would be Y-Mackay’s cousin John Mor who is recorded as being in the region around 1556 laying waste to territory. The Falconer (1793) variation was probably the foundation for the MacRae (1921) story. MacRae’s confusion gets worse stating that the above story was not the case and the facts were (p 20) that Hugh (incorrect, it was Y MacKay) married his cousin Helen in 1589, the daughter of Hugh Macleod of Assynt, and Donald Balloch was their son. Gordon (1630) suggests Hugh (son of Y MacKay and Christian Sinclair) repudiated his wife Elizabeth Sinclair for “adultery” (disputed by Angus MacKay p 114 footnote) and married Lady Jane Gordon, the daughter of the Earl Alexander of Sutherland. They had two sons, Donald (who became Lord Reay) and John. Gordon refers to “Donald Ballogh Mackay of Scowrie” (p 202) as the “base brother of Hutcheon [Hugh] Mackay” (p 203). None of the accounts by Gordon, Falconer or MacRae are referred to by either of the two MacKay historians, Angus (1906) or Robert (1829). Y-MacKay was in Dumbarton prison from February to October 1555. Angus MacKay states that whilst Y-MacKay was in prison his cousin John Mor MacKay went to the lands of Sutherland and quotes Gordon saying “with a company of the best and most resolute men in all Strathnaver, spoiling and wasting the east corner of Sutherland” (Mackay, 1906, p 99). However, given the accounts of Hugh MacKay by Gordon (1630), Falconer (1793) and MacRae (1921) it is only fair that a MacKay should have the last word on this family history. Like Sir Robert Gordon, Robert MacKay (1829) when writing about the history of the MacKays in the “Northern Division” of Scotland makes no reference to any person or clan named Morrison. MacKay gives a full and detailed account of Hugh MacKay (1571-1614), the son of Iye MacKay, and along the way makes several pointed comments of Sir Robert Gordon’s history (such as “Sir Robert, with his usual liberality” (p 142), or ”But this is one of his ranting tales, unworthy of any credit” (p 145). MacKay however does acknowledge the fact that Gordon had actually met Donald MacKay (footnote, p 145) which lends credibility and significance to Gordon’s history of the time. According to MacKay (1829) the genealogy of Hugh MacKay is as follows: His father Iye MacKay married twice, firstly to his cousin [Helen] (a daughter of Hugh Macleod of Assynt) and had two sons: Donald Balloch of Scoury and John-Beg. Secondly he married Christian Sinclair (the daughter of the laird of Dun) and had two more sons: Hugh, who succeeded him and William of Bighouse. He also had three daughters by his second marriage: Ellenora married Donald-Bane Macleod of Assynt, the second Jane married Alexander Sutherland of Berridale and Barbara Mackay who married Alexander Macdavid (chief of the Clan Gunn). Hugh also married twice: first, to Lady Elizabeth Sinclair, widow of Alexander Sutherland of Duffus, and second, in 1589, to Lady Jane Gordon, elder daughter of the 12th Earl of Sutherland. By his second wife, Hugh had a son, Donald, who succeeded him to became the first Baron Reay. He also had a son John and daughters Annas and Mary. Neither of the two MacKay authors Angus (1906) and Robert (1829) make mention in all the dealings between any of the MacKays and a clan named Morrison. They both mention MacLeods, Gunns, Mathesons, Forbes, Sinclairs and Gordons who in different ways all have feuds between and within. There is no mention of the Earl of Sutherland taking the title to Morrison lands. Two historians, James Brown (1843) and Adam Gunn (1897) who wrote authoritatively about the western highlands, make no mention of any Morrisons. It is therefore impossible to verify or establish when the first Morrisons who may have been related to the Lewis Morrisons settled the adjacent mainland or if indeed they came originally from Lewis. The only references that link the Brieve’s family to the mainland are from the traditions (stories) about the Morrisons by Falconer (1793), Thomas (1876-78) and MacRae (1921). It can be seen from their differing accounts about the origins of the Morrison families located in the North Western mainland there is an elusive truth that is difficult substantiate. Oral histories are notoriously unreliable as each passing generation decorates and edits what they have heard. On balance, the evidence provided suggests that those responsible for recording the Morrison history in this region have borrowed elements from related clans and families and patched them into a record of events suitable for their own purpose. Who will ever know what MacRae (1921) was attempting when he gave his interpretation. He managed to misrepresent the more commonplace myths by implanting differing origins such as Skye rather than Lewis, misinterpreted the Gaelic clan name for MacLeod and called it Morrison, and made factual errors regarding MacKay genealogy. His failure to reference his information places it in the category of unsubstantiated gossip at best and utter nonsense at worst. There could be in all probability links by marriage between the MacLeods of Lewis and Harris and the Macleods of Assynt to various relations of the Brieve from Lewis. MacKenzie (1889) for example details a marriage between Alexander MacLeod of Meidle who married “Marsaline, daughter of Torquil MacGilliemhuire or Morrison, Brieve of the Lewis…” (p 204). MacKay family members also married MacLeods (for example, Ellenora MacKay married Donald-Bane Macleod of Assynt) thus further extending the web of family relationships. As previously mentioned commerce, particularly fishing, would have led to Lewis families quite probably marrying into other families on the mainland as they traded goods between coastal ports such as the legendary “handsome and good-looking fellow” who took his cargo of meal to Thurso. Thomas’ mention of the Brieve’s relations seeking refuge on the mainland following the treachery of the Brieve around 1597 could have been the high point in the establishment of a mainland “tribe”, yet even here Thomas suggested most returned to Lewis after the troubles subsided. The Fife Adventurers At the height of the troubles on Lewis in June 1598 the Privy Council under the contract of the King sanctioned a number of “gentlemen” including Patrick of Lindores, Sir James Learmonth of Balcomie, Sir James Anstruther, James Spens of Wormiston, Sir James Sandilands of Slmannanmure, Captain William Murray, Sir John Forret of Fingast, Sir William Stewart of Pittenweem, Sir George Home of Wedderburn and his son David Home, and Ludovick the Duke of Lennox (a cousin of the King) to organise the “plantation” of Lewis. These “gentlemen” are referred to as the “Fife Adventurers”. Thomas (1878) gives an intriguing account of the Fife Adventurers although he makes an error with the date of their settlement and the capture of Sir James Learmonth of Balcomie: “In October 1559 the Fife adventurers, with 500 or 600 soldiers, artificers, &c., sailed for Lewis, when Murdo Macleod captured the Laird of Balcolmy near the Orkneys, where soon afterwards the unfortunate gentleman died” (p 517-8). The Fife Adventurers first Lewis settlement was in 1598, not 1559, and continued on precariously in fits and starts through to their final forlorn retreat in 1609. The hanging of Neil MacLeod in Edinburgh in April 1613 ended the “Troubles in the Lewis” (Thomas, p 521). Part of Thomas’ account records that some time in 1599 Neil MacLeod had a falling out with his brother Murdo, and Neil conspired with the Fife Adventures to betray Murdo who was later hanged, drawn and quartered and his head affixed above the “Nether Bow” in Edinburgh after a trial at St Andrews for the treasonable capture of Sir James Learmonth, and the murder of a number of other Fife Adventurers including Joseph Learmonth. According to Thomas, Neil took the heads of 10 or 12 “Morrisons" on pikes to Edinburgh. In Moysie’s account of this episode quoted by Thomas (pp 517-518) and MacKenzie (1903) no mention is made that the heads were of “Morrisons”, it simply states: “Be the meanes of ane speciall hielandman off that ile there were ten or twelfe apprehendit of the speciall withstanders of that interpryse, and beheidit, and ther heids sent heir in a pok to Edinburgh, which were sett vpone the ports thereof.” — Moysie's "Memoirs," p. 165 (Ban. Club) (p 518). Whoever the heads belonged to cannot be transformed from a “possibility” into a categorical claim such as Thomas’ that they were “Morrisons”. There is no historical evidence that can support Thomas’ supposition that the heads were those of people named “Morrison” including the fact they were still known as “Clan-Mhic-Ghille-Mhoir” or “Clan na Breitheamh” at that time. MacCoinnich (2015, p 53) joins some of the dots by suggesting that Neil MacLeod had captured some of his brother Murdo’s accomplices “named by the Scottish Privy Council as Angus mKeane Bref, Jhone Dow mcBreif, Angus mcBreif”. Whether these were among the dozen heads of Murdo’s followers executed by Neil MacLeod and taken to Edinburgh cannot be substantiated. Quoting from Scott’s “Tales of a Grandfather” (1842) we have this description of the failed colonisation of Lewis: “The Hebrideans seem to have been accounted by King James a race whom it was impossible to subdue, conciliate, or improve by civilisation; and the only remedy which occurred to him was to settle Lowlanders in the islands, and drive away or extirpate the people by whom they were inhabited. For this purpose, the King authorized an association of many gentlemen in the county of Fife, then the wealthiest and most civilised part of Scotland, who undertook to make a settlement in the isles of Lewis and Harris. These undertakers, as they were called, levied money, assembled soldiers, and manned a fleet, with which they landed on Lewis, and effected a settlement at Stornaway in that country, as they would have done in establishing a colony on the desert shores of a distant continent” (pp 348-9). Morrison (1956) makes a reference to MacKenzie (1903) stating “He [MacKenzie] noted in particular that a Morrison of Dairsie in Fife was employed as an arbiter by the MacLeods of Lewis and the Fife Adventures at the beginning of the seventeenth century” (p 30). This claim by Morrison is not only a factual misrepresentation (as can be seen from what MacKenzie actually wrote) but also an invention as the “Morrisons of Dairsie” did not exist at this time. This is what MacKenzie (1903) actually wrote: “It is worthy of remark that a son of the laird of Darcie (Learmont) went to Lewis, at the beginning of the seventeenth century, to negotiate for the release of the Fife adventurers who were held as hostages. It is possible that this circumstance may form a link between the Morisons of Darcie and the Morisons of Lewis” (p 63). Later (p 203) MacKenzie clarifies this stating “Eight months elapsed before James Leirmont, son of the Laird of Darcie, was sent to Lewis …” to presumably negotiate the release of James Spens and his son-in-law Thomas Moneypenny of Kinkell in 1607. Sir James Learmonth’s brother John had a son James, and presumably this is the “son of the laird” that MacKenzie refers to. This “son of the laird” later became Sir James Learmonth, President of the Scottish Court of Session 1643-1647. Sir James Learmonth of Balconie up until the time of his death in 1598 owned Dairsie castle. He had no children. James Melville (quoted in Wood, 1887) wrote that “when the said James, being laird of Balcomie, lived many years in marriage without child, and being taken by the hielandmen coming out of Lewis, was siccarly bastoned, and sae hardlie used that soon thereafter died in Orkney, about the year 1598” (pp 442-443). After the death of Sir James the Dairsie estate passed to his brother Sir John Learmonth of Birkhill. There is no link as MacKenzie postulates between the Morrisons of Dairsie and the Leamonth’s or the Morrisons of Lewis. It is shown later that the Morrisons only acquired the sobriquet “Morrison of Dairsie” when Sir George Morrison purchased Dairsie from Sir John Spottiswood in 1646. Furthermore, Morrison (1956) by misrepresenting MacKenzie about who it was that supposedly went to Lewis to negotiate for the release of hostages furthers the fake history and mythology regarding the Morrisons from Lewis. This is but one example of misrepresentation that undermines any credibility that the history of the Lewis Morrisons might have. To be historically accurate Morrison (1956) should have stated the fact that the Learmonth’s sold Dairsie to the Spottiswood’s in 1616 and they in turn sold it to the Morrison’s in 1646. Sir James Learmonth of Balcomie was one of the Fife Adventures who in 1598 sailed to get supplies for the Lewis settlers when he was captured by Murdo MacLeod and died soon after in the Orkneys. Why either Morrison or MacKenzie tried to connect the name Morrison to the Fife Adventurers fiasco is puzzling. The Morrisons of Lewis and Harris: Irish or Norse? Deconstructing the historical myth about Norse origin is not an easy task in the light of all the uncritical published works and modern day Morrison websites that blithely quote the myth as fact. A typical example of these uncritical publications is Bain (The Clans and Tartans of Scotland, 1938, p 240) who wrote that “According to tradition the Clan Morrison is said to be of Norse origin and descended from a family who were shipwrecked on the shores of the island of Lewis and saved by clinging to driftwood …” Bain, like so many authors, makes the assertion about Norse origin without any evidence, rather, he simply repeats the mythology as though it was an established fact. Captain Thomas (1876-1878) emphasised the Irish connection to the name Morrison: “In Ireland there was a Clan Mac Ghillemuire settled in Lecale (Leth-Cathal), County Down. On July 7, 1244, Henry III. requests—among others—that Mac Gillemuri himself, and with his forces, will join the Justiciary of Ireland about to depart for Scotland” (p 506). This suggests some Morrison families on Lewis are of Irish origin, not from Norse or MacLeod paternity. Thomas attempts a linguistic analysis of the Irish origin as: “Of the Morrisons, it is strange that the “Indweller", himself a Morrison, should have ignored what he would have called the " Irish " name of his clan, which is from Gille-Mhuire, i.e., servant of Mary; from Gille, i.e., a servant, &c., and More, i.e., Mary. A Morrison in Gaelic is Mac Ghillemhuire, sometimes shortened to Gillmore, Gilmour; or translated Morrison, Maryson; or reduced to Milmore, Miles, Myles. The Morrisons are a numerous clan in Lewis, where, in 1861, they numbered 1402, or one-fifteenth of the whole population; in Harris there were 530, equal to one-seventh of the inhabitants. These numbers indicate a domination in the island of many centuries [It is an intriguing conclusion to suggest that one fifteenth of a population equates to domination]. There is no real tradition of their original settlement in Lewis, except that the founder was the inevitable son of King of Lochlann; but one remarkable genealogy of Macleod makes Gillemuire to have been the father of Leod; and before Raice (Rooke) and Olbair (Ulf 1) the Hewer, we have another Gillemuire. It is added that Ealga fholt-alainn, i.e., Ealga of the Beautiful Hair, daughter of Arailt Mac Semmair, King of Lochlainn, was the mother of Gillemuire” (pp 504-505). Black (1946, p 639) condemns this analysis of the meaning of “Gille-Mhuire” as “baseless”. Adding to the intrigue about the derivation of names, and just as irrelevant, one could well ask was the name MacGillemorisone (Black, 1946, p 500) an original form of Morrison? Thomas then suggests the Indweller’s account “is only partially correct in stating that Kennanus Makurich, i.e., Cain Macvurich (Cathan Mac Mhurich), was the first Morrison in Lewis; for the current tradition throughout the island is that the heiress of the Morrisons, having determined she would only marry with a Morrison, Cain, who was a Macdonald from Ardnamurchan, passed himself off as a Morrison, became husband of the lady, and consequently brieve also. The Harris Morrisons claim to be of the original stock” (p 508). If this is so, the question then becomes are these Harris Morrisons really MacDonalds? Throughout the works of L A Morrison, John Morrison the “Indweller” and Captain Thomas there are confusing and contradictory accounts of the Morrison history on Lewis and Harris. Thomas made the claim that “The Morrisons … numbered 1402, or one-fifteenth of the whole population; in Harris there were 530, equal to one-seventh of the inhabitants. These numbers indicate a domination in the island of many centuries” (p 505) yet later he comments that “Many sanguinary battles, still recounted by tradition, were fought between the Macleods and Macaulays on one side, and the Morrisons on the other. At last the Morrisons were forced to leave Lewis, and take refuge with that branch of their clan which was settled in Duirness and Edderachyllis, in Sutherland, where still, in 1793, the natives were all, except a few, of the three names of Mac Leay, Morrison, or Macleod” (p 517). If Thomas is to be believed that the Morrisons were forced to leave Lewis then there must have been a significant number of Morrisons who remained on Lewis and Harris to breed up to nearly 2,000 by 1861 by Thomas’ account. An alternative reason could be explained by a large unrelated number of people changing and anglicising their names to “Morrison” after 1600. So we are left with a number of contradictory claims about the origin of the Morrisons on Lewis. Firstly, there was no child of Olaf the Black named “Gillemorrie”, secondly the “Indweller” claims Norse decent from “Mores”, thirdly Thomas (1876-1878) emphasised the Irish connection to the name Morrison via Clan Mac Ghillemuire, and finally the Thomas contention that the Morrison Brieves of Harris were descendants of a MacDonald. The origin and meaning of “Gillemorie”, a personal name, is discussed below. However, based on credible research evidence the conclusion has to be that there is no definitive origin to the name Morrison in Lewis and Harris, but somewhere in the genealogy of the people identified nowadays in these isles as a Morrison there is every likelihood of some Irish genetic infusion into the general island population in much the same way there could have been Norse. The conclusion after examining the extensive academic debate is that the Morrisons do not descend from Olaf the Black, yet there is a general uncritical acceptance by many writers that claim this Morrison origin. In Alick Morrison’s (1956) opening chapter he writes “The Clan Morrison is known in Gaelic as Clann MhicGillemhoire. The name is derived from the Gaelic personal name Gillemoire, which survived in the island of Berneray in the Sound of Harris as late as the last century. The living tradition on the island claims that Gillemoire was the Ceann Fine or progenitor of the Clan. The English form of the name Gillemoire is Maurice. Hence it follows that the surnames “MacGillemhoire” and “Morrison” are synonymous and literally mean the son or rather the descendent of Maurice” (p 7). MacCoinnich (2015) disagrees with this suggesting the ‘Morisons’ were not known as such by contemporaries during the sixteenth century. “The earliest usage of the name ‘Morison’ for this family in Lewis dates from as late as 1640-1643, when Mr Donald Morison appears in the documentary sources as minister in Ness, Lewis … The name given to members of this family in contemporary Scots and Latin documents prior to 1640 [and] 1643 was ‘MacGilleVorie’ and ‘McBreif’ and variants thereof rather than ‘Morison.’ These names are clearly attempts at rendering the Gaelic forms ‘MacGilleMhoire’ and Mac a’ Bhritheimh into Scots and Latin dress. Sir Robert Gordon, writing around 1630, referred to an incident around 1600 involving ‘Gilcalme moir mac Iain (chieff of the clan wic Gill woir efter the death of the breiwe)…’ (Weber 1813, 272). Another record relating to members of this family from 1598 named them as ‘Angus m’Keane Bref, Jhone Dow McBreif, Angus Mc Breif’ (RPCS xiv, p cxxiii)“ (p 44). MacCoinnich’s reference to “an incident around 1600” above is detailed by Gordon (1630, p 272) where he writes about the double-dealing of the Brieve of Lewis in 1620: “Now shall you sie the Briewe of the Lewes justlie punished for killing and betraying his master, Torquill Dow Macloyd. John Mack-Donald- Mack-Houcheon, (befor mentioned,) accompanied only with four others, cam by chance into the house wher the Briewe, with six of his kindred, were ludged within the cuntrey of Assint ; either of them suspecting one another, being of contrary factions, and being now in one rowme, they expected who should be the first invader. John pursued the Briewe and killed him, with fyve of his men, without the losse of any of his owne company, which surelie wes a hard mater to effectuat, being all vpon their guard; bot God deprived the Briewe and his company of courage or abilitie to resist. In revenge whereof Gilcalme-Moir-Mack-ean (chieff of the Clan-wic-Gill-Woir, efter the death of the Briewe), did search for John-Mackdonald-Mack-Houcheon to slay him; bot John, meitting by chance with this Gilcalme-Moir in the Cogigb, he invaded him, killed the most pairt of his men, took Gilcalme-Moir himself prisoner, and careid him into the Lewes to Tormot Macloyd, wher he wes beheaded. This John Mackdonald-Mack-Houcheon died afterward in Strathnaver, the yeir of God 1620”. Finally, in discussing the origin of the name Morrison on Lewis, Black (1946) gives the meaning and origin of Ó Muirgheasan as “‘Descendant of Muirgheas’, sea choice. A surname in Inishowen, county Donegal. At some unascertained date a branch of the family migrated from Inishowen to Scotland and settled in Lewis and Harris. Some of them became bards to the Macleods of Dunvegan… Later the name became O’Morrisone and O’Morison. When the literary tradition with Ireland was broken the O’ fell out and Muirgheasain was corrupted to Morrison. Their chief resided at Habost Ness in Lewis and became hereditary brief or judge of Lewis. Hutcheon Morrison was brief in 1551 and John Morrison in 1596. Little has been preserved of the early history of the family, which practically came to an end about 1600.” (pp 638-639). Black (1994) identifies another family in Mull, ‘Clann na h-oidhche’ or Ó Muirgheasáin who adopted the spelling ‘Morison’ as an English form but were generally not believed to be related to the Lewis ‘Morisons’. It therefore appears to be the case that some members of these “Morrison” families on Lewis and Harris are most likely completely unrelated. The effect of adopting a common name obscured their real histories and genealogies and most probably led to the development of far fetched or legendary tales to give meaning and glamour to their origins. The Adoption of the name “Morrison” on Lewis and Harris Since the Morrison association with Olaf is false, where does this leave the whole history about the Morrisons of Lewis? Not only is there a problem with much of the mythical origins of the Morrison of Lewis, the name itself is problematic. MacCoinnich (2015) believes the name Morrison on Lewis did not exist before 1640. Prior to this time the families known as McBef, MacGilleMhuire and O’Muirghesasain formed different family groups on Lewis and Harris. According to MacCoinnich the Morrisons of Ness were said to have been the hereditary britheamhan or judges associated with the McLeods of Lewis. MacCoinnich’s chapter “Dùn Èistean and the ‘Morisons’ of Ness in the Lordship of Lewis. The historical background, c.1493 – c.1700” (2015) traces in great detail the evolution of the name Morrison around Ness, including the spelling of the name Morison with the one “r” which he suggests was the preferred spelling from the mid 1600s to the 1800s. Regarding the use of a single “r” or double “rr” in the spelling of Morrison one author has proposed the difference is due to ethnic origins. According to MacCaulay (1980, p 164) the fertile soils around Pabbay were “consecrated to the maintenance of the church. It was in such ecclesiastical connection that the name Morrison originated - Mary’s son - Gaelic Moire and - Norse- son. Tradition says there were two septs of the Morisons, the Scandanavian and the Celtic. The Norse spelt it with a double ’r’ - Morrison, and the Celtic with a single ‘r’ - Morison” . This is unsubstantiated fiction. There is no rule or ‘tradition’ regarding the single or double ’r’ spelling. It has simply become an accident of history whichever form a family adopted. MacCoinnich (2015) traces the evolution of the name from McBref or MacGilleMhuire to Morrison: “The adoption of the name ‘Morison’ at some point during the first half of the seventeenth century was probably a matter of convenience in an increasingly anglophone world. It bore some similarity to MacGilleMhoire, anglicising it as ‘Moire-son’, in much the same pattern, perhaps, as names of neighbouring kindreds such as MacMhathain and MacMhurchaidh became Scotticised or anglicised as Matheson and Murchison respectively. Moreover, the form ‘Morison’ was free of overtones of a barbarous Gaelic past in a way that ‘McBref’, Mac Gille Mhoire and their variations were not. Sliochd a’ Bhritheimh were not the only clan to rebrand their names at this time. Those bearing the names ‘MacNeacail’ and ‘MacBeatha’ in the records from neighbouring Skye prior to the 1620s, for example, became Nicolsons and Beatons, respectively, although they had no connection to their namesakes in the south who bore these well-established lowland names… Not only were names re-packaged, but the past itself could be re-invented and parallel practice of pedigree faking was widespread in the highlands at this time (p 66). MacCoinnich’s suggestion is supported by Bannerman (1998, The Beatons, a Medical Kindred in the Classical Tradition, pp 3-5), Sellar (1981, Highland Family Origins, Pedigree Making and Pedigree Faking, pp 108-113) and Black (1946 p 463 wrote that the MacCallum’s of Poltalloch changed their name some time before 1850 from MacCallum to Malcolm ‘for aesthetic reasons’). MacCoinnich quotes W C Mackenzie (1903) posing the possibility of this rebranding tracing back to either the Morrisons of Dairsie or Prestongrange (these two related families are discussed in detail later), but Mackenzie’s speculation is misplaced. It certainly wasn’t the Morrisons of Dairsie as they only came into being in 1646. The closest connection to MacKenzie’s speculation was the marriage of Alexander Morrison of Prestongrange’s widow Helenor Maule to Sir James Monnypenny in 1637, a relative of Thomas Monnypenny of Kinkell who was held prisoner along with his father in law James Spens during the time of the Fife Adventures. However, these dates effectively rule out either the Dairsie or Prestongrange connection that MacKenzie was proposing. The more likely explanation, according to MacCoinnich, was an Andrew Morrison of Avoch mentioned earlier, the chief collector. Andrew is referred to in 1606 as “Andra Moresoun collector depute and factor to Mr David Lindesay Bischop of Ross” (Old Ross-Shire and Scotland, as seen in the Tain and Balnagown documents, B No. 57, 1606, p 32). References to “Andrew Moresone” of Avoch (a harbour village located on the south-east coast of the Black Isle on the Moray Firth) the Collector Depute in the northern parts of Scotland date to at least 1597 where The Sottish Antiquary, Vol. 5, identifies him (p 30). It also refers to his wife Barbara Ross whose father Thomas Ross was the Abbot of Fearn (a hamlet situated about 1 mile south of Loch Eye and 2 miles northwest of Balintore in eastern Ross-shire). Andrew Morrison was born in Leith (Adam, 1991, p 200), was admitted as a notary in 1577 and appointed Collector Depute in 1589. According to Adam (1991) he was styled “chamberlane of His Majesties rents benorth the Forth” (p 201). Some time about 1593 he moved to Ross, and up until at least 1633 he was still active witnessing deeds. He married (24 June 1595) Barbara Ross (the daughter of Thomas Ross, the commendator of Fearn, and Isobel Kinnaird). The mother of Thomas Ross was Margaret Morrison who was the second wife William Ross of Culnaha (his first wife was Katherine Morrison), the daughter of Henry Morrison of Pitchaldy, Fordyce, Banffshire. She had been the chambermaid to Lady Balnagown. Margaret’s brother Alexander Morrison was Abbot of Fearn in 1585 (Adam, p 139). This is most probably the same Alexander referred to as Alexander Morrison the exhorter, parson and vicar in 1562 at Alness (Scott, 1950, p 658) and Origines Parochiales Scotiae: The Antiquities Ecclesiastical and Territorial of the Parishes of Scotland (Innes, 1855). The third son of Margaret Morrison and William Ross, Donald Ross, had two daughters. One of them, Elizabeth, married George Morrison of Little Allan, the son of Thomas Ross’ uncle (Alexander Morrison, the brother of Margaret Morrison who was married to William Ross, Thomas’ father). These two different Morrison families demonstrate a good example of the name moving north from Lowlands to Highlands. There are also references to a Donald Morrison and a Sir John Morrison as ministers in Morinche around 1526 - 1536 in Origines Parochiales Scotiae: The Antiquities Ecclesiastical and Territorial of the Parishes of Scotland (Dundas, 1855, p 424). Andrew Morrison can be connected to the Rev. Donald Morrison of Barvas through a friendship with William Lauder (born about 1614, Commissary Clerk of Ross who married Katherine, eldest daughter of Murdoch MacKenzie the chamberlain of Lewis) from Avoch. William Lauder’s daughter Jean married Rev. Donald Morrison who became the minister of Barvas in 1640. In 1630 Andrew Morrison and William Lauder are mentioned as witnesses to the Charter of Confirmation by Patrick Lindsay, Bishop of Ross: “Andrew Moresoun, burgess of said Canory; William Lauder, clerk of the commissariat of Ross…”(Livingston, 1907, p 364). Andrew and Barbara’s grandson, a MacKenzie, was killed at the battle of Worcester in 1652 where coincidently a Morrison from the Prestongrange family line was captured and transported to the West Indies. The common connection between Rev Donald Morrison and Andrew Morrison the collector is conceivable through in-laws and family connections between the Mackenzies, Lauders and Morrisons. There is also the possibility that Rev Donald adopted the name Morrison whilst he was studying at St Andrews. His tutors may have urged him to abandon his Gaelic name for an Anglo Scottish name. The troubles of Donald M'Indowie [Donald Macillevore], the last Brieve on Lewis who was subject to an act of “Fire and Sword” in 1630, would have been fresh in the mind of Donald who probably left Lewis to attend St Andrews in the late 1630s. According to Scotlands People “Lowland clergymen in a charge in the Highlands or the Shetland Isles sometimes took the opportunity to anglicise a name in the records” (Scottish Surnames and Variants: www.scotlandspeople.gov.uk/). Having already discounted the story about Ay Mac Hormaid as being an adaptation or misrepresentation of MacKay history and dismissing other accounts stemming from this story that used “Morrison” when in fact the name was not in usage, there is something of a vacuum of reliable source material to ascertain when it was that the “Durness” Morrisons adopted the name. The name Morrison was being used nearby by Donald Morrison the Chaplain of Morangie in 1486 (MacGill, 1909, p 3), Alexander Morrison the exhorter in 1571 at Alness (Scott, 1928, p 25), Andrew Morrison the collector in 1597 at Avoch (Scottish Antiquary, Vol 5, p 30) and “Jasper Moresone” who was a witness in 1580 to Johne Ross, minister at “Tayne” (MacGill, 1909, p 19) and in 1545 noted in the Dallas family history to a “Willelmo Moresoun”. It is evident from the records in this region there were families of Morrisons who were spelling their name as Morrison as distinct from some Gaelic variant in and around Ross shire. MacCoinnich (2015) says Rev. Donald Morrison of Lewis was the grandson of the last Brieve named Donald Macillevore. This accords with MacKenzie tradition and Capt. F W L Thomas (p 32) who noted Donald M'Indowie [Donald Macillevore] Brieff was the last Brieve and was the subject of a ‘Patent of Fire and Sword’ dated 24th June, 1630 issued by King James VI of Scotland to Rorie (Roderick) MacKenzie of Cogac (the Tutor of Kintail) to subdue the West Highlands and in particular the Island of Lewis. L A Morison says the last Brieve was “Judge John Morrison” (p 55). However, according to MacCaulay (1980, p 27), Allan was the last of twelve heredity brieves or judges. Allan had a son Murdo who was a tacksman at Gress, and Murdo’s son John (Ian Mhurchaidh Ailein) (born about 1630) became a tacksman at Bragar and later known as the “Indweller”. Given the written record of the “Patent of Fire and Sword” in 1630 Donald Macillevore was most likely the last Brieve. John Morrison the “Indweller” wrote “I do remember in my tyme, when there was not three in all the country that knew A b by a Bible” (quoted in MacCaulay, 1980, p 28 ). This indicates illiteracy was almost universal on Lewis up until at least 1650. Therefore the “Indweller” must have relied heavily on oral history. This also suggests there were no written family records before at least 1650. Oral histories are notoriously unreliable as they are subject to all manifestations of interpretation, embellishment and invention. He makes no mention in his telling of the family history when it was they began calling themselves Morrison. Alick Morrison (1956) in discussing the worldwide diaspora of the Lewis Morrisons (p 29) quotes W C MacKenzie (1903) who wrote “Whether or not these Morrisons are descended from the Lewis family, it is difficult to say, but traditions seems to support the suggestion” (p 63). On this point Morrison (1956) omitted the whole point of MacKenzie’s paragraph which led into the quote above: “The chiefs of the Morisons of Lewis - the latter are sometimes called the Clan na Breitheamh - enjoyed the privileges of the judgeship for many generations, until their final downall [sic] early in the seventeenth century. The arms of the Morisons of Dersay (or Darcie) in Fife, the Morisons of Bogney, and the Morisons of Prestongrange, are three Moors’ heads, an obvious pun on the word Morison, although tradition supplies a version of its own… “ (p 62-3). As shown later in the detailed discussion into the four families from Prestongrange, Dairsie, Pitfour and Bognie, there is absolutely no connection or tradition between them and the Lewis or Harris Morrisons. Further to this, the prominent Scottish Moir family suggest that in their family history (Moir, 1913) “There is no “Clan Moir”. This is just another instance of the use of the adjective. The “Clan Mhic Gille Mhoir”, of which Dr. Brown refers in his history of the Highlands, is explained by Sir George Robert Gordon, the contemporary writer, whom he is quoting, to be merely a sept or branch of the Clan MacLeod“ (Henry Paton, in Moir, 1913, p 23). Gordon did not make or infer this claim. Later writers have attempted to translate “Clan Mhic Gille Mhoir” as “Morrison”. It is neither Muir or Morrison, and this false translation has been responsible for many of the spurious claims made about the origins of these two names in Scotland, particularly for the Morrisons of Lewis. Whatever the reason or whoever it was that suggested the adoption of the name Morrison for the newly rebranded families on Lewis and Harris will probably never be known. It is a tantalising enigma that will no doubt vex the many adherents who believe that all Morrisons originated in Lewis and Harris. However, the consequential effect of the name change meant that these families were now able to trace their family trees back retrospectively, that is, they also changed the names of their forebears to Morrison as well. According to Thomas (p 508), “Cain Macvurich (Cathan Mac Mhurich), was the first Morrison in Lewis”. Had the families rebranded themselves, for example, ‘Lauder’ instead of ‘Morrison’ then this same person would have been claimed to be the first Lauder, and all the people who called themselves Lauder could say their progenitor was Cain Macvurich (Cathan Mac Mhurich). This 17th century name rebranding has created an historical distortion of extraordinary dimensions, particularly in terms of the effect on genealogy. Should “Gillemoire” (Gilmour) be a Sept of the Morrisons? When distilling the many scholarly theories about the derivations and meanings of “Gillemoire” and the many spelling variations in relation to the name Morrison and its origin, how is one to draw reliable conclusions about true meaning or origin? Just as the name “Morrison” appears in the Scottish records with many alternative spellings as described previously, “Gillemoire” also appears with many variations: MacGilleMhuire, MacGilleMhoire, Mhic-Ghillie-Mhoir, Mac Gillemuri, MhicGillemhoire, Gilmor, Gylmor, Gillmore, Gillemorrie, Gillemuire, Gillemoire, Gilemur, Gael mor and Gille Moire. The Clan Morrison Society lists Gilmour as a “sept” of the Morrisons. Not only is the origin of the name Gilmour (or the spelling variant Gilmore) in Lewis unreliable, to link it with the name Morrison generally makes it even more so. Like the name Morrison, Gilmore was also in usage as a surname on the mainland long before it was used on Lewis and Harris. To summarise some of the conflicting origins and meanings of Gilmour, here are some examples found in the literature: Black (1946) gives the origin of the name Gilmour as (or Gaelic, Gille Moire) “servant of (the Virgin) Mary” and dates it to around 1133 and 1156 when “Gilmor, son of Gilander, founded the chapelry of Treverman (now Trierman) in the Parish of Walton, Cumberland” (p 308). Furthermore, Black references Cosmo Innes in his introduction identifying the name Gilmour identified from “the handwriting“ from around 1200 as “Gilemur filius kercau aput corrokes” and Gylmor hund aper Dauwic” (p xxi) in a document of “witnesses to the right marches between Stobbo and Hoperewe and Orde” (p xx) which Black suggests are of Saxon or Old English origin. Black references many examples of the name Gilmour in the Lowlands of Scotland as well as scorning the “philological gymnastics” of Dr John Milne who had asserted that Gilmour is “Gael mor, which was originally Chuit mor, aspirated, cattle-fold, and mor means big. Chuit was corrupted into white, which being regarded as an English name, was turned into Gaelic by geal, white!” (p 308). See also point 10 below. Sellar (1998) when writing about the MacLeod origins states that the Gaelic pronunciation of “son of Gillemuire” is (mac (Gh)illemhuire). Therefore, if the Morrisons were MacGillemhuires, that is, the sons of Gillemoire, then they would be by paternity MacLeods. The MacLeod DNA has been identified as S68/L165: “Nevertheless, the MacLeods do not carry the M17 marker group. Theirs is a recently discovered sub-group labelled S68. It is found in Lewis, Harris and Skye, core Macleod territory, but also in Orkney, Shetland and Norway, with a few examples in Sweden. Despite extensive screening, S68 is very specifically located, showing up only once in the east of Scotland and once in England. This is a classic pattern for a Viking marker in Britain, but one much rarer than M17. MacLeods determinedly claim descent from a common name father, a Norse aristocrat called Ljot, a relative of Olaf, King of Man. They are probably right to continue to claim that – science for once supporting tradition” (The Scotsman, 2 March 2011, Scotland’s DNA: Who do you think you are? - Part 4). It would be logical to conclude that if the Morrisons on Lewis were by paternity of MacLeod stock then they would carry this gene. So far no Morrisons have tested positive for this gene. Paton (1913) suggests “The “Clan Mhic Gille Mhoir”, of which Dr. Brown refers in his history of the Highlands, is explained by Sir Robert Gordon, the contemporary writer, whom he is quoting, to be merely a sept or branch of the Clan MacLeod" (p 23). The author of this research concludes Paton’s claim regarding Dr Brown and Sir Robert Gordon cannot be substantiated. Gordon (1630) stated that the Slaight-Ean-Voir descend from John Moir-Mack-Ean (p 92), that is a MacLeod. MacRae (1921) incorrectly translated the Slaight-Ean-Voir to be Morrisons, and it would appear Paton has made the same error. Thomas, (1876-78) gives two meanings: “… that the serfs or tenants on lands belonging to a church or monastery dedicated to the Virgin would be called the Gillies of Mary; hence the origin of the name; but in process of time it is evident that such names as Gillemuire were used as proper names, and without any reference to office or employment” (p 505). Later he states: “Gille-Mhuire, i.e., servant of Mary; from Gille, i.e., a servant, &c., and More, i.e., Mary. A Morrison in Gaelic is Mac Ghillemhuire, sometimes shortened to Gillmore, Gilmour; or translated Morrison, Maryson; or reduced to Milmore, Miles, Myles” (p 504). MacKenzie (1903) wrote “… “Muire” appears to be St Mourie or Maelrubha (rather than the Virgin Mary) of whose name Rice (Raice) is known to be a variant. Such compound names as Gille-Muire, Gille-Colum, Gille-Anrias, Gille-Bride, and similar appellatives, were of frequent occurrence among the Celtic Christians during the Norse domination of the Hebrides; and after the conversion of the Norsemen to Christianity, they may have been applied by the Celts to Norwegians of rank in the Isles, who were distinguished for their devotion to the saints under whose patronage they had placed themselves” (p 56). MacKenzie then goes on to weave the McLeods, Morrisons and Gilmores together: “It is likely that the Morisons, as suggested by the Bragar genealogist, are descended from Norse forbears. It is far from improbable, indeed, that they were a sept of the Macleods. John Morison states the belief that the progenitor of the Macleods, and father of of the progenitor of the Morisons, were both sons of the “King of Noravay”, or in other words, the norse King of Man and the North Isles. The Gaelic name of the Morisons - Clan MacGillemhoire or Gillmuire - when taken in conjunction with the preceding remarks about St. Mourie and the Kings of Man - appears to support the view that the relations between the Macleods and the Morisons were of an intimate nature. The name Morison is an English rendering of the word Gillemuire - servant or devotee of Mourie - and the original form survives in the modern name of Gilmour” (p 62). Black (1946) suggests that rather than being a translation, Morrison displaced the Gaelic Mac Gille Mhuire from “which comes Macgillimore, Macgilmore, Macgilvory, MacIlvory, and Maclimore” (p 612). See also point 10 below. Sinclair (1899) suggests Gilleain was the progenitor the Macleans (p 40), and in discussing some of his heirs he references a “Maolmorie, or Gillemoire, [which] means servant of Mary. Among the men who rendered homage to Edward 1 of England in 1296 was ‘Gillemoire Mackilyn’, apparently Gillemoire Mac Gille-Eoin, or Gilmory Maclean” (p 41). The ‘servant of Mary’ idea has been seized upon in populist literature to represent the origin of MacGillemhoire, and hence Morrison. Contrast this with what Black says in point 11 below. MacCoinnich (2015) outlined how he saw the evolution on Lewis of MacGilleMhuire to Morrison: “The adoption of the name ‘Morrison’ at some point during the first half of the seventeenth century was probably a matter of convenience in an increasingly anglophone world. It bore some similarity to MacGilleMhoire, anglicising it as ‘Moire-son’, in much the same pattern, perhaps, as names of neighbouring kindreds such as MacMhathain and MacMhurchaidh became Scotticised or anglicised as Matheson and Murchison respectively” (p 66). Morrison (1956) states that “The English form of the name Gillemoire is Maurice. Hence it follows that the surnames “MacGillemhoire” and “Morrison” are synonymous and literally mean the son or rather the descendent of Maurice” (p 7). Another derivation of “Maurice” in Gaelic is “Muirgheas” and the English form is “Maurice”. The Library of Ireland defines it as “MUIRGHEAS, genitive -gheasa and -ghis, (Maurice); comp. of muir, sea, and -ghus, choice; formerly a common Irish name; now merged in Muiris, which see. Latin — Murgessius”. See also point 10 below. Black (1946) makes a detailed analysis of the name O’Muirgheasain: “Descendant of ‘Muirgheas’, sea choice. A surname in Inishowen, county Donegal. At some unascertained date a branch of the family migrated from Inishowen to Scotland and settled in Lewis and Harris. Some of them became the bards of the Macleods of Dunvegan … Later the name became O’Morisone and O’Morison. When the literary tradition with Ireland was broken the O’ fell out and Muirgheasain was corrupted to Morrison” (p 638). However, Black falls into the trap of backdating the beginning of the adoption of the name to Morrison when he states “Their chief resided at Habost Ness in Lewis and became hereditary brieve or judge of Lewis. Hutcheon Morrison was brieve in 1551 and John Morrison in 1596. Little has been preserved of the the early history of the family, which practically came to an end about 1600” (pp 638-9). Black gives no estimation of when this evolution of O’Muirgheasain to Morrison supposedly took place, however from MacCoinnich’s research (point 8 above) we know it wasn’t before 1640. Black (1946) then quotes the Indweller’s assertion that the Morrisons descended from “Mores the son of Kennanus”, stating “Equally baseless is the modern idea that “Morrison” interpreted as “Mary’s son”, represents Gaelic Mac Gille Mhuire. Alexander Morrison (Heraldry of the Clan MacGhillemhuire) makes the wild statement that the name is from ancestors who were vassals or adherents of the jarls of More or Moeri in Norway!” (p 639). Adding Gilmore to the Morrison clan origin controversy by suggesting they are a sept of the Morrisons would on the evidence provided above, appear to be as equally spurious as the claim that all Morrisons originated in Lewis. The evidence is contrary to this claim, both the Scottish Morrison and Gilmore names originated elsewhere in England and Scotland as quite separate and unrelated family names. Like many names in Scotland they evolved and changed over the hundreds of years from when they were first recorded, eventually standardising during the 1800s. Their origins and histories are as manifold as their progenitors. Chapter 5 The Origins of the Morrisons: From Lowlands to Highlands Family research into the history of the Morrisons in Scotland is limited by the paucity of records for births, marriages and deaths prior to 1855. What records there are before 1855 consist of Old Parish Records (OPRs) and a variety of often unconnected historical accounts, family histories, parochial registers and official statutory documents. These are all far from comprehensive, and require lengthy cross-referencing to validate whatever claims may have been made about persons or events. Some family histories such as Bulloch’s (1907) “The House of Gordon” or Dallas’ (1921) “Family of Dallas” contain well researched cameo portraits of marriages and dates that detail family members and their parentage. There are also some written histories which contain incorrect information such as Wemyss (1799) who claimed it was Sir George Morrison who bought Prestongrange when in fact it was John Morrison (supported by Scottish records, and for example, Stodart, 1881). It is not possible to determine who the first Morrisons were, there is simply no evidence that is capable of being verifiable. The most probable conclusion reached in Chapter 1 was that the Morrisons first settled the Lowlands of Scotland before pushing north and west into the highlands. The DNA evidence of the “M269 marker defines a group known as R1b and is predominant in Scotland … [and the] overwhelming likelihood is that it came to Balbridie, Claish, Kelso and elsewhere…” (Moffat and Wilson, 2012, p 66) and was introduced by pioneering farmers. This pattern of settlement is balanced against the theories of the development of the name Morrison discussed previously. This Chapter looks at some of the earliest recordings of Morrison families, more particularly those of Prestongrange in the Midlothians, Dairsie in Fife, and Bognie and Pitfour in Aberdeenshire. The earliest references to the identifiable form of the name Morrison in Scottish records has been discussed in Chapter 1. The Colquhoun family history, the Aberdeen Burgess records and the records from the Cistercian Abbey in Coupar-Angus predate all other recognisable Scottish recordings of the Morrison name in Scotland that have been reported by other writers. In addition to these early records, other early recordings include the Latin translation of The History of Old Ross-shire (Macgill, 1909) which identified Rev Donald Morrison Chaplain of Morangie in 1486 (p 3) and in 1580 a Jasper Moresone (p 19), the Register of the Great Seal of Scotland has in Edinburgh 1531 a Jac Morysone and The Scottish Register has Morrisons in Perth 1572, Aberdeen 1573, Stirling 1587 and Angus 1589. The following reference in 1563 is found in the Protocols of the Town Clerks of Glasgow: “John Moresoun, son and heir of q. John Moresoun, ratified and approved a sale and resignation made by him in his minority, with consent of q. Sir John Moresoun, his curator…” (Renwick,1897, p 60). Note that the title “Sir” was often applied to the clergy around this time. These are but a few of a plethora of Morrison references prior to 1600. As previously discussed, the Morrisons from Lewis and Harris adopted the Morrison name in the first half of the 1600s. It is not an Anglicised translation of MacGhilleMhuire as often claimed. If one looks at the gap in recording the name in Lewis and Harris from the other Scottish recordings of the name “Morrison” as distinct from other manifestations such as McBref it does lend some support to the theory that the Lewismen “adopted” the name and has no connection to the evolution of the name Morrison through the Lowlands and into Scotland generally. There was no simple Gaelic equivalent. MacCoinnich (2015) in Plantation and Civility in the North Atlantic World: The Case of the Northern Hebrides 1570-1639 suggests that “One Lewis kindred identified variously as ‘bref’, ‘brief’, ‘McBref’ or “Sliochd a’ Bhritheimh’, a heredity legal family, re-named themselves as ‘Morison’ sometime before the mid seventeenth century” (pp 505 - 506). In the Lowlands there are numerous examples in historic records for Scotland that reference the name “Moresoun” (and many variations of the spelling now given as Morrison) in the 1500’s. In the Miscellany of the New Spalding Cub (Vol 1, Aberdeen, Printed for the Club 1890 Register of Burgesses of Burgh of Aberdeen,1399-1631, p 1 and additional entries, 1601, p 161) the frequency of surnames in Scotland is discussed in a “note on names in register of burgesses”: The order of frequency for the whole of Scotland, according to Mr. William Anderson's "Genealogy and Surnames" (Edinb., 1865), is as follows: Smith, Macdonald, Brown. Robertson, Thomson, Stewart, Campbell, Wilson, Anderson, Mackay, Mackenzie, Scott, Johnston, Miller, Reid, Ross, Paterson, Fraser, Murray, Maclean, Cameron, Clark, Young, Henderson, Macleod, Taylor, Mitchell, Watson, Ferguson, Walker, Morrison, Davidson, Gray, Duncan, Hamilton, Grant, &c: A chronology of the name Morrison (Moresone, Moryson) from the Aberdeen Burgh Records is as follows: 1440 Sept 18 Morison, Angus, of Kynkardyn (at request of laird of Drum) 1459-60 Galt, Andrew (caut.

R. XLIX., 336. [These Morrisons became known as the Morrisons of Pitfour detailed later]. 1622 Mar 14 Moresone, Henry, at one time baillie of the burgh of Edinburgh (ex gratia) [A Morrison of Prestongrange]. 1624 July 13. Moresone, Sir John, of Sauchtounhall (ex gratia) Dulsone, Patrick (servant to Sir John Moresone, ex gratia) [Father of Sir George Morrison of Dairsie]. Historically the name Morrison in all its different spellings is found throughout Scotland from 1429 onwards in a broad variety of records, for example: The Rental Book of Diocese of Glasgow AD 1509-1570 cite the name Willelmus Morisone on a document dated 1519 (p 34) and later (pp 413-414) cite the name “Johanne Morison” (Liber Protocollorum M. Cuthberti Simonis Notarii Publici et Scribae Capituli Glasguensis A.D. 1499-1513). Another example, dated 1529: “Present there, Sir John Morisoun, chaplain and connotary in the premises, Michael Flemyng, Sir Thomas Flemyng, notaries public, William Hendersoun, John Gayne and George Burell, with many others witnesses to the premises called and asked…” (in Charters and other documents relating to the city of Glasgow, p 109). There is a reference in 1545 in the Dallas family history to a “Willelmo Moresoun” in an instrument of sassine in Moray (Dallas, 1921, p 85). In Stirling in the Extracts from the records of the Burgh of Stirling (R. Renwick, 1890, p 59) dated 1544-1550 a Kate Moreson, Johne Moreson, Jonet Moreson and a Robert Morison are identified. Similar types of Burgh references to the name appear about this time in Glasgow, Dundee, Dunfermline, Aberdeen as well as Edinburgh where this research is concentrated. There also appear to be Morrisons associated with the Augustinian clergy as servants at the monastery of Holyrood Abbey (founded in 1128 by David I): “…the list of Robert’s servants are Scots - Blackadder, Brown, Bruce, Crawford, Dickson, Dundas, Elphinstone, Henderson, Johnston, Kennedy, Kincaid, Lyle, Monteith, Morrison, Murray, Redpath, Robson and Stewart…While Donald Morisoun has not been identified, several persons of that surname were included among the servants of the previous commendator, Robert Stewart [son of James V of Scotland, 1st Earl of Orkney, Abbot of Holyrood 1539] (Anderson, 1982, p 137). Rubbish was dumped at ‘Moresouns yett’ (gate) following work at the palace in 1579 (WA i, 305)” (Gallagher, 1998, p 1090). The earliest reference to a Morrison in the Edinburgh records is for a William Morrison in the Roll of Edinburgh Burgesses (1406-1700): “Morison, Wm., baxter, at the instance of Thomas Tod, provost 31 Dec. 1494-2 Mar. 1498-9” (p360). The Edinburgh Burgh Accounts give many references to the Morrisons in Edinburgh claiming expenses on behalf of the Council, for example, in 1549 to Alexander Moresoun, 1556 Item 97 to “Jhone Moresoun aucht pund” (p 67), in 1558 : ”The viii dayis expenses maid upone Johnne Morisonis twa Slangs their irne werk…” (p 255), “Item, to Denne Morisoun for wynny of there lintels to the saids yetis… “ (p 112) (Town Treasurer’s Accounts 1552-1567, The Burgh Accounts: Vol 1). The Preface to Edinburgh Burgh Accounts makes fascinating reading about the day to day activities of the Council in the mid 1500s. These were the years that the family that was to become known as the Morrisons of Prestongrange and Dairsie began in 1537 through John Morrison, Burgess of Edinburgh: “During the period embraced in these Accounts, the most momentous events were taking place, and influences the most powerful upon the country and character of the Scottish people were growing and strengthening. The name of John Knox figures prominently in the period, especially in connection with Edinburgh. The men who so prosaically penned the entries in the Accounts here presented, had witnessed the burnings and slaughter in the City in 1544, 1545 and 1547; they were familiar on the streets with the forms of Mary of Guise, Queen Mary, John Knox, and all the great ones whose names have come down to us from that stirring time. They doubtless discussed the strange new subjects which were agitating men's minds, and listened eagerly to the tidings of those events, the fame of which has reached us, and into the details of which every patriotic Scotsman is eager to inquire. It may be that, even in the prosaic entries now presented relating to City business, these Bailies and Treasurers and Deans of Guild give some glimpses into the circumstances in which they lived, and the methods and customs of their age. They were not professing to write history, but their writings form valuable material, which may be utilised in the building up of Scottish history all the more valuable that it comes to us in dry details, which are free from all passion and partizan bias. This is the justification for the Town Council making these Records accessible to the public. … In the same year [1558], a sum of Is. 6d. is entered as paid for cords and besoms with which to scourge three lads who had been engaged in the singular amusement of "playing at funeral," two of them carrying the third through the town ”as he had been dead." Henry Wynd's wife was burnt at the stake (her offence is not stated), and details are given of the payments for the cords, stake, coals for the fire, tar and the labour barrels, rosait and of the men who made the pile, not omitting the ten pence to the lockman to drink. Some Frenchmen charged with making or circulating false coin were sentenced to be executed, or, as the phrase was, "justified," and the expenses of the scaffold and gibbet are given. It is mentioned that they were brought condemned from the Abbey. In 1559-60, the Treasurer, who had evidently come under ecclesiastical displeasure, enters the sum of five shillings, which he "had to expend before he could get from the Bishop an absolution from cursing. On 8th May 1559-60, a payment of 40 is entered for the "honest sustenance and furnishing of the ministers of this Burgh." From the entries in 1560, it appears that two shillings Scots about six pence sterling was the ordinary wage per day paid to masons” (Preface, The Burgh Accounts: Vol 1).. The Scottish Lowlands 1550 to 1750 The two hundred years between 1550 and 1750 were turbulent times for the family sometimes referred to as the Morrisons of Prestongrange and Saughtounhall and their cousins, the Morrisons of Dairsie, and another two unrelated families of Morrisons in Aberdeen, the Pitfour and Bognie lines. These families were part of the social, political and religious mix which set the course for the future of Scotland right up until today. The centre of the political and religious struggles in Scotland at this time was Edinburgh. Edinburgh Burgess records identify William Morrison in 1494. In 1529 Paul and Thomson (1883, Registrum magni sigilli, p 167 and p 175) identify a “Will. Morisoun” and later in ”Hadingtoun a Joh. Morisone”. The Parish of Haddington in Haddingtonshire is part of the Midlothian region which contains the significant other Parishes of Prestongrange, Prestonpans, Dolphingstone, Dalkeith and Newbattle. It lies about 10 miles from Edinburgh and 13 miles from North Berwick. From the records of the time it is therefore confidently stated that there were well established Morrison families in Edinburgh and the Midlothians in the early part of the 1500s. Extracts From the Records of the Burgh of Edinburgh, 1528-1557 and 1557-1571 (Originally published by Scottish Burgh Records Society, Edinburgh, 1875) support this. 1494, Roll of Edinburgh Burgesses 1406-1700: “Morison, Wm., baxter, at the instance of Thomas Tod, provost 31 Dec. 1494-2 Mar. 1498-9” (p360) 1529, Will.

The oldest record that identifies the “Prestongrange" Morrison family in Edinburgh is The Roll of Edinburgh Burgesses 1406-1700 which records “Morison, John, B. and G.

The port town of Leith was vital to Edinburgh as it provided the necessary infrastructure for the merchants to import and export the goods that they traded. The South Leith history 1560-1565 records John Moresoun, a reader, being paid a stipend of £20 Scots: 1562, January 24.—Stipend to Mr David Lindesay £200 scots; to John Moresoun, reader, £20 scots. 1574, October 5, Council Records of Edinburgh (vol. v. fol. 32) “Jhonn Moresoun” as an Edinburgh Councillor. In 1579 King James VI, the son of Mary Queen of Scots, visited Edinburgh. The Burgh of Edinburgh was responsible for the cost of the visit, and the records identify John Moresoun as being the treasurer: Oct. 7. 1579, : The samyn day Ordanis every ane of the thretty twa honest nychtbouris of this brugh, comburgesses therof, efter mentionat, appoynted for bering of the Kingis Majesties paill, to be chairgit be the officeris to mak and prepair ane goune of fyne blak, barrit witli welvous, lynit in the breistis with welvous, or govmis of fyne chamlott of silk, growgrane of silk or cierge, barrit with velvous, velvet coiles, or doubletis of saiten velvot, or dames tafetie hatis, and in sic uther decent apparrell as efferis; and that the samyn be ready within aucht dayes, and the baillies to tak visitatioun therof; ilk person under the payne of fourty merkis unforgevin j and the baillies to tak diligent laubouris to se the samyn be nocht omitted, and to uplift the said un- law of the faillaris heirin but favouris (p 20).

Scanning through the OPRs, the oldest entry for a Morrison birth is “05/10/1565 Morisone, Johne. (Parent) Johne Morison, Canongate, Edinburgh City, Midlothian”. The Edinburgh Marriage Register records Morrison marriages from 1595, and OPR Edinburgh deaths from 1617. James Grant’s (1880) Old and New Edinburgh: “In 1555 the magistrates assigned the care of the Cowgate Port - the gate which closed the street on a line with the Pleasance - to Luke Moresoun for thirty shillings yearly…” (Vol IV, p 240). The Lothians and Edinburgh The territorial ownership of the border regions was very fluid during the 13th and 14th Centuries. The English dominated around the early 1300s under King Edward I, “The Hammer of the Scots”, and took complete control of the major trade port of Berwick around 1330. Following the murder of James I in Perth in 1437 Edinburgh began to develop as the centre of government and the main royal residence. It therefore became imperative for the Scots to not only secure Edinburgh, but also to develop the port of Leith to enable trade and commerce. By 1500 Edinburgh was paying sixty percent of Scotland’s customs revenue. The town prospered to become a Royal Burgh, and grew in wealth by the hard work of the merchant burgesses and craftsmen who formed guilds to protect their interests. The “Prestongrange" Morrison family began in 1537 in Edinburgh where “Morison, John, B. and G. [Burgess and Guild brother]” (The Roll of Edinburgh Burgesses 1406-1700 p 360) was the first of many in his family who distinguished themselves as burgh guild members. In 1550 the population of Edinburgh and Leith was estimated to be about 15,000 out of the total Scottish population of about 1 million. More rapid growth was tempered by outbreaks of the plague in 1568, 1584 to 1588, and again in 1645, interspersed with punitive military campaigns with the most notorious being that by the Earl of Hertford in in 1544. Given the utter devastation of Edinburgh by Hertford it is miraculous that any records of this period survived. There must have been a concerted effort by officials to keep safe whatever records they could gather up before they were destroyed. The merchants, whilst strongly supporting their monarch, retained control of the town council from 1550 to 1650 despite the best interfering efforts of the crown. Becoming a burgess bestowed great social status, and could be transferred to their heirs or by a merchant’s marriage into a burgess family. Becoming a burgess also required a member to be armed as they were obliged to take turns in “watching and warding” the town at night. The Burgess Roll refers to, for example, Isaac Morrison as a Burgess and Guild Brethren eldest son of John Morrison, as being armed with a “hagbute” (24 Nov 1601), or later John Morrison, the eldest son of the late “Harye M” who was armed with a “muskat” (20 Feb 1633). A fascinating insight into the Edinburgh Burgesses can be gained by reading the PhD thesis of J. K. McMillan (A study of the Edinburgh Burgess Community and its Economic Activities, 1600-1680, University of Edinburgh, 1984). During the 1530s in Edinburgh a young merchant named John Morrison married Beatrix Hill, and probably witnessed first hand a string of volatile events in Scottish history. It is from John Morrison and Beatrix Hill that it is possible to trace the Prestongrange and Dairsie families. The 1530s and 1540s were fierce and uncompromising years where bloody battles were not only fought between the armies of Scotland and England but also amongst the various religious factions of Catholics and Covenanters. At the death of King James V in 1542, his daughter Mary (later to be Mary Queen of Scots) was only a week old. She was protected by groups of nobles who jostled each other for power and influence. This tension was exacerbated by not only a dichotomy of Catholics and non Catholics, but also allegiances to France and England. These dichotomies affected the English King Henry VIII who was unsettled by Scotland’s wavering. He attempted to sort out the instability by the Treaty of Greenwich in July 1543 whereby Mary would marry Henry’s son Edward (who later became Edward VI) when he turned 11 years of age. However, within a very short time this all came horribly unstuck. Burgh life in the 1600s Religion appears to be the root cause of the many disasters that dogged Scotland for the next 100 years. Mary’s mother, Mary of Lorraine, also known as Mary of Guise, was both French and a Catholic. Arran, the baby Mary’s protector and Regent, second in line to the throne, was a Protestant. The Catholic cardinal for Scotland, David Beaton, was bitterly opposed to Henry VIIIs Treaty of Greenwich, and garnered enough support to have the baby Mary crowned at Stirling in September 1543. Henry VIII was outraged when news came through, and in May 1544 he sent the Earl of Hertford with an army that landed at Leith and attacked the castle. Hertford torched Holyrood Palace and the town burned for three days. Following the destruction of Edinburgh the soldiers then burned crops and looted the surrounding areas. Those affected by all this carnage laid the blame squarely at the feet of Cardinal Beaton. This scale of destruction was followed up again in 1545 when Hertford repeated the dose in Berwickshire. Towns and crops were burned, including 40 villages and the abbeys of Kelso, Melrose, Dryburgh and Eccles. Had the Scots not been sold out by Cardinal Beaton there was every prospect for a long peace between a Protestant England and Scotland. This period in history holds one of the keys to the on again off again military confrontations between Scotland and England until the Union of Parliaments in 1707 and the final humiliation of Culloden in 1746 where the papist Prince Charles Stewart’s Jacobite army was crushed by the Royalist Hanoverian army (Lenman, 1984). As previously identified, there were many Morrison families established in the Lothians, with Edinburgh at its heart. A few miles to the south east of Edinburgh lay Haddingtonshire where the estate of Prestongrange was located. It was in the nearby town of Haddington that a Protestant named George Wishart chose to preach. One of the audience that gathered to hear him was a local named John Knox. When Cardinal Beaton heard about Wishart he decreed him a danger to Catholicism and had him strangled and burned in St Andrews, Fife, in 1547. When Wishart’s followers learned of his ghastly death they broke into Beaton’s palace at St Andrews and hanged him. Mary of Guise enlisted the help of France to punish these vigilantes, and after they surrendered they were taken to France where some of their number, including John Knox, were made galley slaves. Henry VIII died in 1547, and Hertford, now Duke of Somerset, became young Edward VI’s protector. Hertford felt obliged to make one more incursion into Scotland to teach the Catholic troublemakers a lesson, and the battle of Pinkie was the result. This battle took place near Mussellburgh, and the Scots were decimated. Once again nearby towns were given the full treatment of burning and looting. Haddington was in the thick of the conflict. For many Scots, although bitterly opposed to Catholicism, they supported Mary of Guise’s intervention to secure the safety of the young Mary in France, and French intervention by way of a standing army based in Edinburgh to rid Scotland of Hertford. Divisions between Catholics and Protestants continued to simmer until boiling point was reached when the Catholics attempted to stop people reading books. By this stage the English martyr, William Tyndale (sentenced by the Pope as a heretic, strangled and burned at the stake in 1536), who had translated the Bible into English left a legacy that saw many Scots now reading the Bible for themselves. One victim of the Catholic suppression was Adam Wallace who was burned at Castle Hill in 1550. No doubt some of the Morrison’s, including John and his young son John (who later married Katherine Preston) and living in Edinburgh at his time may have witnessed this event. In 1553 Mary Tudor acceded to the throne of England and her reign helped strengthen the reformation in Scotland. On 29 December 1554 John Morrison (Moresoun) is recorded in the “Extracts of the Records of the Burgh of Edinburgh, 1528-1557” (Marwick, 1871). In 1555 John Knox was released from slavery in France and returned to Scotland. In 1557 four Scottish nobles, the earls of Argyle, Glencairn and Morton, and Lord Lorne (Argyle’s son) signed “The First Covenant” and called themselves the “Lords of the Congregation”, declaring their intent to make Scotland Protestant. The die was now cast, either Mary of Gusie had to go along or choose her French ethnicity and Catholicism. As it turned out, only the sword was going to settle the dispute. In 1558 young Mary, still in France, married the Dauphin and secretly made an agreement that if she died before him he would become king of Scotland. In the midst of all the intrigue about the Scottish crown and religion we find not only were the Scottish Catholic clergy exerting their power over the ordinary people, they were also amassing a fortune by way of land ownership and money. The abbots lived in luxury whilst they forced the poor to contribute to their excesses otherwise they would neither baptise, marry or bury them. Knox was appalled at their corruption and idolatry, and instigated uprisings in Perth and St Andrews to destroy Catholic images and statues. In 1559 the Edinburgh Town Council appointed Knox as the minister of St Giles. Mary of Guise called in the French troops again but they were opposed by Lord James Stewart, the half brother of Mary Queen of Scots, along with the followers of the “Lords of the Congregation”. They requested intervention by Queen Elizabeth (who had succeeded Mary Tudor on her death), and together they laid siege against the French garrison at Edinburgh’s port city of Leith. This was all in full view of the residents of Edinburgh, and in 1560 the French agreed to decamp back to France. A council of 12 was formed to rule Scotland until Mary Queen of Scots returned. They ended the Church of Rome in Scotland and began the Church of Scotland. In 1561, at the age of 18, Mary Queen of Scots, and still a professed Catholic, returned to Holyrood House after the death of the Dauphin in 1560. She was advised by her half brother Lord James Stewart that being openly Catholic would be inadvisable. Knox preached in nearby St Giles that Mary should not say Mass. The Scots wanted Mary to succeed Elizabeth as both Queen of England and Scotland, so being pro Catholic would not be an option if their desire was to succeed. Mary’s life was not a simple choice between being Catholic or Protestant, there were other human expectations that needed to be attended to. One such expectation was an heir to succeed her, and since she was a widow it would be an obvious consideration for her to choose a new husband. She chose Henry Stewart, known as Lord Darnley, the eldest son of the Earl of Lennox and like Mary, a grandchild of Margaret Tudor who was a sister of Henry VIII. This should have signalled the intention to unite the thrones of Scotland and England. But the match was not that cut and dried. For starters, Darnley was Catholic. This was hardly good news to the Protestant Queen Elizabeth, or for that matter the Earl of Moray who was eventually forced to flee Scotland. To complicate Mary’s life further, her enthusiasm for the ambitions of her husband Darnley cooled, and she befriended an Italian musician named Riccio. Without going into the lengthy description of their relationship and its effect on the increasingly impetuous Darnley, it eventually led to the bloody murder of Riccio in front of Mary by Darnley and a group of nobles in 1566. The following year after trying to patch things up with Darnley, Mary gave birth to an heir, the future James VI of Scotland and James I of England. Whilst this brought instant joy across Scotland, Mary and Darnley’s dysfunctional marriage grew worse, culminating in the murder of Darnley. In 1567 Darnley had become ill and Mary persuaded him to recuperate in a house near to Holyrood. Unbeknown to Darnley, his estranged Riccio co-conspirators had returned to Scotland after their forced departure, and a plot was enacted to blow up Darnley’s house. He was found dead in the garden. Three months after the murder of Darnley the capricious Mary married James Hepburn, Earl of Bothwell. Bothwell was implicated in the plot to murder Darnley, but this did not appear to bother Mary. This began a period of great instability in allegiances throughout the Scottish nobility. Bothwell fled to Norway, Mary was imprisoned, escaped, then fled to England where she was again imprisoned. Mary’s dramatic life finally ended on February 8 1587 after Elizabeth 1 signed the Warrant of Execution that saw her beheaded at Fotheringhay Castle at only 44 years of age. During this time the Church of Scotland was founded in 1560. In 1563 trials began in Prestonpans that saw the eventual execution of 81 people who were declared witches. In 1572 John Knox died. Life was never dull in Scotland at this time, just staying alive would seem to be very much to the fore for many citizens. Apart from accusations of witchcraft that were liberally scattered about there were many other life threatening issues to be wary of. If you made the wrong decision about religion you could die, you daren’t be seen reading books, there was the threat for young men to be conscripted into the army to fight either the English or French, or be conscripted to kill either Catholics or Protestants, or for the population generally to die from disease or hunger brought about by the privations of looting and burning and the occasional visitation of the Plague. The issue of witches lingered on for many years. The Scottish historian Roy Pugh (2001) documented the execution of 81 Prestonpans residents convicted of witchcraft. The executions occurred between 1590 and 1679. According to Sherrer (2006) “the actual number is believed to be much higher, but Pugh only included the verifiable cases for which records still exist. Pugh described the period from 1563 to 1727 in Scotland as a “mini-holocaust,” since as many as 4,500 Scots were convicted of witchcraft and executed” (Allan, 2005, quoted by Sherrer, 2006, pp 20-21). This is perhaps something of an exaggeration as Mitschele (2013) says that between 1563 and 1736 “there were 3,212 accusations of witchcraft in Scotland” (Abstract). In McNeill’s (1902) history of Prestonpans “Catherine Liddel exhibited a complaint against Rutherford, baron bailie to Morrison of Prestongrange, and against David Cowan in Tranent, bearing that they had seized upon her, and detained her under restraint as a prisoner; and that the said Cowan had pricked her with pins in sundry parts of her body, and bled and tortured her most cruelly” (p 101). It is therefore difficult to comprehend that in these years Edinburgh somehow managed to rise from the ashes of military conflict, a bout of plague in 1569, and the vicious religious and social upheaval that prevailed to prosper as a trading hub for Scotland. The Edinburgh Morrisons somehow survived in this caldron, and began to sow the seeds of a thriving family that became well respected both socially and politically for the next 200 years. They were very much part of the thriving merchants who numbered around 400 by 1580. Despite all of the above carnage there were interludes of stability and prosperity that took hold in Edinburgh during the reign of Mary. To gain some idea of social life in Scotland at this time Rogers (1884) gives an excellent account. For someone growing up in these times they would have seen the landscape of the Midlothians being almost treeless, and on the large tracts of marshy undulating ground there were crops of corn and oats interspersed with grazing cattle and sheep. It was a noticeable feature of farming in these times that there were no fences to demarcate ownership. The landowner lived in a house that was of stone construction and featured a hall, main room, kitchen and pantry. Their tenants lived in small stone and thatch crofts and typically only held the right to farm for a few years. They could be replaced by other tenants prepared to strike a better bargain. Consequently there was a relatively large and mobile rural workforce that basically lived from hand to mouth, and were often used to swell the ranks of military campaigns where life was cheap and more often than not, very short. In the towns and Burghs the wealthier merchants lived in four room houses, the largest room being a hall with a counter where trading was conducted. Beds were mostly shared, and furniture in general was meagre. There would be a basic set of pewter plates, some pots, bowls and a quart measure. In Appendix 1 a stark contrast to these basic necessities is set out in the stocktake of goods and chattels once owned by Sir William Morrison following his death and the debtors sale of his Prestongrange estate. Burghs were surrounded by walls, often surrounding a castle, and traders entered by a gate where they paid a toll. There was also a church and a tollbooth which served as a courthouse and prison. There were trading opportunities for people around the period of the 1550s to make something of their lives. This is obvious by the fact that the Morrisons in Edinburgh did extremely well which enabled them to establish the Prestongrange and Dairsie dynasties. John Knox arose from humble beginnings nearby in Haddington, as did George Herriot in Edinburgh. On his death in 1624, Herriot, a wealthy goldsmith nicknamed “jinglin’ Geordie”, gifted his fortune for the establishment of the George Herriot school in Edinburgh. Heriot served as a burgess alongside John Morrison “the rich”. Edinburgh 1582 (16th century engraving, Braun & Hogenberg, Edenburgum, Scotiae Metropolis c.1581, British Museum, London) Chapter 6 Examples of Significant Morrison Families During the The Reign of the Stewarts 1. The Prestongrange and Dairsie Morrisons One of the great enigmas of Scottish history is the mystique of the Stewarts, from Mary Queen of Scots through to “Bonnie Prince Charlie”. Indeed, if one were to place these two as the bookends of the Stewart monarchy of James VI of Scotland/1 of England, Charles I, Charles II, James 2/7, Mary (and William) and finally Anne, a reasonable question could be asked “What benefits did any of these monarchs bring to Scotland?” Perhaps it was the flaw in the mirror of Catholicism that reflected the grotesque distortions of their failed regencies and the consequent miseries that befell the Scots. The time line of the Stewart dynasty against which four Morrison families became prominent is as follows: 1566 Mary Queen of Scots gives birth to James I of England and VI of Scotland 1587 Mary Queen of Scots beheaded at Fotheringay Castle 1600 Charles I born in Dunfermline Note: The year 1600 has a significance in Scottish history that is often forgotten. This was the year the Scots chose to move the first day of the year to January 1st rather than March 25th as in the Julian calendar which the English still used. It was not until 1752 that both Scotland and England were aligned to the Gregorian calendar, matching their dates with Europe which had adopted this more accurate system in 1582. 1603 James VI of Scotland becomes James I King of England, the union of crowns. 1626 Charles I crowned at Westminster Abbey. 1633 Coronation of King Charles I at Hollyrood. 1649 Charles I beheaded by order of the English Parliament, Oliver Cromwell rules and later assumes the title Lord Protector (1653). 1657 Richard Cromwell “Tumbledown Dick” succeeds his father. 1658 General Monk declared the protector of Scotland. 1661 Charles II returns to England and restored to the throne as King. 1685 James II of England and VII of Scotland (a Catholic), brother of Charles II, becomes King. 1688 James II deposed in a military coup by his daughter Mary and her husband William of Holland (William of Orange) who becomes King William III. 1690 The deposed James II under the patronage of Louis XIV of France attacks Irish Protestants (originally from the plantation of James VI of Scotland) but is defeated by William III at the Battle of the Boyne. 1702 King William III dies, Queen Anne (daughter of King James VII of Scotland) accedes to the English throne. 1707 Treaty of Union of English and Scottish Parliaments. 1714 The last of the Stewart line, Queen Anne, dies. 1720 Charles Edward Stewart (Bonnie Prince Charlie) born in Rome. 1745 Charles lands in Eriskay at the start of the Catholic Jacobite uprising, occupies Edinburgh, and wins a famous battle at Prestonpans. 1746 April 16, Bonnie Prince Charlie defeated at Culloden and flees to France. Much of the strife that accompanied this period of history was the persistent struggle between Catholics and Protestants. Ever since Henry VIII established himself as the head of the Anglican Church of England there was the ever present danger of Papist plotters seeking the return of the Catholic Church. For most Scots, including the many Morrison families, living during this period from the mid 1500s to the mid 1700s they would have witnessed at first hand the dysfunction that the Stewarts brought. Mary Queen of Scots was betrayed as baby by Cardinal Beaton and her own mother, Mary of Lorraine. The religious feud that was played out from then on, manifesting its ugly dogmas as cold blooded savagery between Catholics, Covenanters, Episcopalians and Presbyterians during the Stewart reign brought nothing but misery to the majority of Scots, either directly or indirectly. Armed conflicts, murders, capital punishments, vigilantes, forfeiture of property, the list goes on, invariably touched all levels of society. Henry VIII’s proclamation of his right as head of the Church of England left a legacy that the Stewarts failed to grasp as they vacillated between ideas of Divine Right through to reestablishing Catholicism. When James VI of Scotland became King James I of England in 1603 he held the Protestant line, and even went so far as to establish a Protestant Plantation in Ireland. When Charles I became King he saw himself as possessing the divine right to his Kingship which angered the English Parliament and led directly to his beheading in 1649. Keeping in mind the events outlined above, overall at a political level there were those who were either in the favour of the Crown and rewarded with land and title, or those who were out of favour and suffered loss of land and title, jail, humiliation, torture or even execution. Oliver Cromwell (1651–1659) as Lord Protector enforced the incorporation of Scotland and Ireland as part of England: “Mid century saw civil war in England, Scotland and Ireland – for a range of reasons. There was a period of enforced union as Commonwealth under Oliver Cromwell as Lord Protector, and once again the Lothian area was used as a battlefield. The upheaval of war led to economic disruption, and the seventeenth century marks a distinct change in trading patterns, with the rise of numerous burghs of barony which competed in the domestic market” (Sonia Baker, 2000, p 17). After the Restoration, Charles II held true to his Protestant faith, but his younger brother James was swayed by the French to become Catholic. Thus when he became James II of England trouble was never going to be far away. Because the Stewarts were all of Scottish descent English troubles became Scottish troubles, and the religious divide created innumerable problems across all three nations of Scotland, England and Ireland. The scoresheet for the Stewarts is dreadful. James the VI of Scotland fitness to take up the Crown of England was questionable given his obsession that witches were lurking in the shadows, some even had the power apparently to work up a storm at sea preventing his bride, Anne of Denmark, to sail to Scotland (Magnusson, 2001, p 394). James VI/I was also responsible for the destabilisation of protestantism in Scotland by favouring the Episcopalians over the Presbyterians. His successor, Charles I, most famously entered the book of English history by being the only English monarch to be beheaded by his Parliament. After the Restoration, Charles II became famous for his extra marital dalliances. His brother James VII of Scotland and II of England thought it a good idea to stack the government in Scotland with Catholics, and then tried to do the same in England. With the birth of Prince James Francis Edward Stewart in 1688, it became conceivable he would continue the Catholic monarchy that his father was reinvigorating. James’ daughter Mary who had married the Dutch Protestant William of Orange, then decided to act and staged a coup which overthrew James II and restored Protestantism on the grounds of “breach of contract”. Scotland rejoiced as mobs looted and ransacked James’ Catholic symbols in a moment of opportunity to vent anger. Scotland was far from stable, ferocious battles raged between James’ followers who became known as “Jacobites” (from Jacobus, James) and Royalists (including Killiecrankie 1689, Dunkeld 1689, and the Massacre of Glencoe 1692). James attempted a return via Ireland with French help but was crushed by William at the Battle of the Boyne (1690). William and Mary’s daughter Anne inherited the throne and was the last Stewart monarch, reining from 1702 to 1714. Apart from The Act of Union in 1707, Anne had little to do with Scotland. It was reported that she found the Scots to be “strange” and “unreasonable” (Lenman, 1984, p 79). Prince James Francis Edward Stewart, the son of James II, known as the “The Pretender”, tried to make a Stewart comeback in 1708 at Burntisland in Fife where his Jacobite followers were to link up with his French convoy. That was thwarted by the English admiral Byng. In 1715, often referred to as “the ’15”, the Earl of Mar raised a sizeable Jacobite army in a second attempt to install the “Pretender”, but this also ended in a fiasco as the Duke of Argyle outmanoeuvred Mar’s Jacobites. Some years later in 1720 Charles Edward Stewart was born in Rome. Like his father, “Bonnie Prince Charlie” was no strategist and was humiliated at Culloden in 1746 by a combined force of Scottish and English soldiers. The penalty paid by many Scots for the Stewart legacy was enforced poverty, execution or loss of property. The only recorded Morrison at Culloden was Richard Morrison, the Prince’s valet and wigmaker. He was captured and condemned to hang but escaped and fled to France. Despite all this dysfunction, some prominent Morrison families in the Lothians made an impact during this period, rising through the social ranks by astute marriages and taking senior roles in Edinburgh Burgh affairs and the Judiciary. Some of the marriages saw unions forged between the Morrisons and such titled families as Arnot, Dick, Spottiswood, Ker, Preston, Mauld, Sinclair, Johnston, Boyd, Dallas, Arbuthnot, Trotter, Home, Nisbet and Bethune. There was also considerable intermarriage between these families which had the effect of forming a strong protective web binding them together. For example, the pattern of relationships becomes evident in the will of William Nisbet of Craigintinnie and Dirleton. “He executed an entail of the estate of Restalrig on 5th September 1722 to David Nisbet, son of his second marriage with Mrs Jean Bennet, daughter of Mr Robert Bennet, dean of the faculty of advocates, whom failing, to Walter Nisbet, the second son of his first marriage with a niece of Dame Jean Morrison, the third wife of Sir John Nisbet, first of Dirleton, whom failing, to Mrs Christian Nisbet, his eldest daughter, and Sir John Scott of Ancrum, her husband” (Ross and Grant, Alexander Nisbet’s Heraldic Plates - Part 5). The niece of Dame Jean Morrison was her sister Helen’s daughter Christian who married Sir Henry Nisbet (son of Sir Patrick Nisbet of Deane). Helen was married to the 3rd Baron John Riddell. Another example is that of Janet Morrison (1609) who married John Trotter 2nd of Mortonhall. Their daughter Catherine married John Rocheid, the parents of Janet who was married to Sir William Morrison. Finally, there is the example of Sir John Morrison’s (sometimes incorrectly referred to as “of Dairsie”) widow Nicola marrying John Dick. Henry Morrison, Sir John’s uncle, was married to Christian Dick. Henry’s sister Elizabeth was the wife of Sir William Dick. Their son Mr. John Dick, fiar of Braid, married the widow Nicola of his cousin-german Sir John Morrison. Sir Andrew Dick of Craighouse [born about 1650] married the daughter of Harrie Morrison [Christina] and younger brother of Henry, a rich merchant in Edinburgh, also a near relative. Alexander Morrison of Prestongrange, a senator of the College of Justice 1626-1631, was another brother of Elizabeth (pictured below with Sir William Dick and their family) who was the wife of Sir William Dick. Sir William Dick’s mother was Margaret Stewart (descended from the ancient family of Stewart of Rosyth). Sir William Dick of Braid in Prison visited by his family (from the private collection of Bridgeman) In 1645 an horrific outbreak of bubonic plague broke out across Europe, and through the trading port of Leith it spread into Edinburgh. It is estimated at least half of the population of Edinburgh were infected and died, and even greater numbers died in Leith. Once infected, a resident was either forbidden from leaving their home or banished to a designated quarantine area. Beneath the City Chambers in Mary King’s Close it is recorded that up to 300 infected people were simply bricked in and left to die. The 1645 plague outbreak eventually petered out in 1647. These were the years not long after Sir Alexander Morrison married Jean Boyd and they began to have their seven children. It must have been the isolation at Prestongrange that gave them protection from the plague and similarly the Dairsie Morrisons in Fife. However, just as the rise of the Morrison family was spectacular, so was its collapse. By 1636 Edinburgh had a population of about 30,000. A year later in 1637 Sir Alexander Morrison married Jean Boyd, and one of their children became the last of the titled Morrison line, Sir William Morrison. The decline of the Morrison family in Edinburgh began around the time of the Darian Scheme which was established by an Act as The Company of Scotland in 1695. Its subsequent failure caused massive economic consequences for Scotland when it collapsed in 1700. By this time the debts of Sir William were becoming unmanageable. With the death of Sir William Morrison in 1739 the Morrisons of Prestongrange were in reality no more. The two hundred years of the Morrison family from the Midlothians began to wither at the time of Bonnie Prince Charlie’s victory at Prestonpans in 1745, and ended with the forced sale of Prestongrange in 1746, the same year as the catastrophe of Culloden. The Origins of the Morrisons of Prestongrange From the brief sketch of this family discussed above, let us now make a detailed examination. This family began in Edinburgh in the first half of the 1500s. From their ancestry in Edinburgh two related families grew to be known as the Morrisons of Prestongrange and the Morrisons of Dairsie, building reputations on either side of the Firth of Forth. The common link is John Morrison, an Edinburgh Burgess and later Baillie of Edinburgh (1581) and Treasurer (1588) who purchased some of the Prestongrange lands from the Kerr family in 1609. One of his sons, Lord Alexander Morrison, was a lawman who became Lord of Session in 1626. Lord Alexander’s brother Isaac had a son who became Sir John Morrison, and his son Sir George bought Dairsie from the Spottiswoods in 1646. Lord Alexander married Helenor Mauld on the 6th September 1610 (Register of Marriages of the City of Edinburgh 1595-1700). Lord Morrison’s son, Sir Alexander Morrison of Prestongrange (1616-1683), married Jean Boyd (daughter of the 7th Lord of Kilmarnock, Robert Boyd) on 9 July 1637. Jean Boyd’s sister Agnes married Sir George Morrison of Dairsie, the son of Sir John Morrison. Sir Alexander’s sister Bethia married Sir Robert Spottiswood on 6 June 1629. Sir Robert’s brother Sir John Spottiswood sold Dairsie to his relation by marriage, Sir George Morrison. These interwoven families are another example of how both of these Morrisons families built complex relationships with prominent Scottish families in the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries. The family of John Morrison, Baillie and Treasurer of Edinburgh, was obviously skilled at making good marriages to important families. In addition to the Boyd and Spottiswood families, there was also a close tie in with the Dick family. Two of John Morrison’s children, Henry and Elizabeth, married two of John Dick’s children. Henry married Katherine Dick and Elizabeth married William Dick of Braid (15 June 1603, Register of Marriages of the City of Edinburgh 1595-1700). Their son, John Dick, married the widow of Sir John Morrison, Nicola, daughter of Sir George Bruce of Carnock. The Dick family traces its roots back to Denmark as Dyke-Graff, and then later they became well established in the Orkneys. John Dick was in 1628 an “advocate and sheriff depute of Orkney”. This therefore demonstrates how the Dairsie and Prestongrange families were related. Sir Alexander inherited Prestongrange from his father Lord Alexander, and married Jean Boyd around 1637, and Jean’s sister Agnes married Sir George, presumably a few years later as their first child John was born in 1646, the year Dairsie was purchased. Sir Alexander and Sir George were second cousins since Lord Alexander was Sir John’s uncle. The historical references to the family identify Sir George as the son of Sir John Morrison. Apart from the reference to Sir John being married to Nicola Bruce, there is a reference to him which claims he was the grand son of John Morrison, Baillie of Edinburgh. This is verified by the Morrison’s Monument in Greyfriars Cemetery - “Here also lyeth Sir John Morison Knight, oye to the said John, and son to the said Isaac. He died the 29 year of his age, the 6 July 1625”. Given the relationship between Sir George Morrison and Sir John Spottiswood, and between the Boyd sisters Jean and Agnes, and cousins Sir Alexander and Sir George, it further demonstrates how the Morrison families made influential marriages. Since Sir Robert Spottiswood was married to Sir Alexander’s sister Bethia, one could conclude that the Morrisons and Spottiswoods were friends, and this good relationship would most likely have been shared by his older brother Sir John Spottiswood. There is also a connection between the Morrisons and Sir William Sinclair of Roslyn because he married the sister of Sir John and Sir Robert Spottiswood, Anna, in 1610. Thus all three families - Morrisons, Spottiswoods and Sinclairs - are related by marriage. However, it was probably a friendship that caused discomfort some years later when the Spottiswood’s political demise is discussed. The document that cements the family connection between Prestongrange and Dairsie is R R Stodart’s 1881 work “Scottish Arms, being a collection of armorial bearings AD 1370-1678” which provides the evidence of family lineage: “Moresoun of Darse; or Prestongrang, 1643, is added. John Morison, bailie and treasurer of Edinburgh, who died in 1615, was called “the rich;” he married Katherine Preston, daughter of the Lord President of the Court of Session, and had a large family. His grandson, Sir John of Dairsie, co. Fife, was father of Sir George of Dairsie; this family made alliances by marriage with houses of rank. Mr Alexander, a younger son of the bailie, acquired Prestongrange in East Lothian 1628, and was a Senator of the College of Justice 1626. His son, Alexander of Prestongrange, registered arms 1672-78 -argent, three moors’ heads coped proper. Henry, writer to the signet, a cadet of Dairsie, at the same time registered the coat with the three heads on one neck. The last of the Prestongrange family was George of Little Chalfield, Wiltshire, who d.s.p. 1788, his heirs being Elizabeth, Countess of Sutherland, and George, Earl of Glasgow. In 1673 George Morison of Bognie, co. Banff, founder of a family still existing, was granted arms almost identical with those in this MS” (p 155). In this quotation above from Stodart reference is made to Henry as a Writer to the Signet (WS) and a cadet of Dairsie. The expression “cadet” identifies him as a relation of the family, in this case he is the grandson of Henry Morrison (a brother of Alexander and Isaac) and a nephew of Sir John Morrison (the eldest son of Isaac Morrison). The Morrisons of Dairsie in Fife Isaac Morrison, son of John Morrison the Baillie and Treasurer of Edinburgh, had a son John Morrison (born 1596) who became Sir John Morrison. He is sometimes incorrectly referred to as “Sir John Morrison of Dairsie”. The reason this title is incorrect is because Sir John was dead by the time his son George bought Dairsie in 1646. The more correct title is to style him “Sir John Morrison of Sauchtounhall”. The family records begin with John Morrison who was a Baillie of Edinburgh in 1581 - his son Isaac - his son Sir John Morrison - then his son Sir George Morrison. Morrison families are still to be found in Dairsie, but whether they descend from Sir George is not possible to determine. Thus the Morrisons referred to as the ‘Morrisons of Dairsie’ is the family of Sir John Morrison, grandson of John Morrison and Katherine Preston. Sir John’s son Sir George Morrison bought Dairsie castle in 1646 from his relation by marriage, Sir John Spottiswood (whose brother Sir Robert was executed in St Andrews in 1646 followed by Sir John Spottiswood’s own son John who was executed in Edinburgh in 1650. Both were executed for collaboration with the Royalist Marquis of Montrose, James Graham, for opposing the Covenanters). Sir George Morrison in turn sold Dairsie to Alexander Bruce in 1692 to whom he owed considerable debts. The history of Dairsie castle according to Ruffle (1996), which lies midway between Falkland and St Andrews, describes how it became embroiled in the religious fallout within the Scottish church at that time, and was raided in 1639 by the Covenanters because of the association with Archbishop Spottiswood (who wrote “The History of the Church of Scotland” when he was at St Andrews). From historical accounts Sir George Morrison was also often in trouble with the church and the law. Dairsie Castle The Morrisons of Dairsie are recorded in the Old Parish Records (OPR) in 1646 when Sir George ‘Morisone’, married to the daughter of the 7th Lord of Kilmarnock, Agnes Boyd (died Nov 1680, Dairsie). Their children were: Johne 1646 OPR (24/03/1646, Johne Moresone, Sir George Moreson/Agnes Boyd FR155, 453/00 0010 0150, St Andrew and St Leonards), died 1/3/1688 and buried in the Morrison Tomb, Greyfriars cemetery. Nicola 1647 OPR Robert 1648 OPR George 1649 OPR Charles 1650 OPR William 1655 OPR Agnes 1658 OPR Christian 1661 OPR According to the Death records, Lady Agnes was the mother of David Morrison. The Timeline History of Dairsie 1646 – Sir John Spottiswood sells Dairsie to Sir George Morrison, the same year his brother Sir Robert Spottiswood was executed in St Andrews. 1647 April 22nd – Sir John Spottiswood is summoned by the Presbytery of Cupar to answer changes of keeping company with malignants: ‘being asked if he was in company with the enemie answered – He came from Cupar to them, to seik back his horses which they had taken from him…He was also enquired if he knew of any of his sons going to the enemy? Answered – That his second son went to General Ruthven when he was absent in Ingland; that he had bought five or six years since an ensign’s place for his third son, and sent him to Germany, and had never seen him since that time; but now of late, and lastly, that his eldest son went unto Montrose both against his knowledge and his will.’ Sir John fled to Northumberland. He died in Newcastle in 1677. 1650 – According to Ruffle (1996) Sir George Morrison was obviously tarnished with similar political preferences as the Spottiswoods. In July he acknowledges in the Presbytery records of St. Andrews ‘that he had subscryved the Protestation against the Supplication of the Kirk; he professing his sorrow for the same…he is appointed to mak public declaration of his repentance the nixt Lord’s day in the kirk of Darsy.’ 1655- Quoting from the Leighton’s History of the County of Fife (1840, p 262) “1655, Nov. 21st- Mr Jhone Sieus laird of Kembocke in Fife, was found dead att the water syde of Eden, in the place called the Haugh, neare to Erdries lodging. The most pairt of the day before he was drinking ale and strong waters at George Trumbell’s house in Cuper, neare the tollbooth, with Sir George Moresone, laird of Dairsie, Achannachie, the laird of Mount, and divers others”. The reference then quotes a “Diary p. 94 - The Kirk of session of Cupar as appears from the following entry in their records seem to have considered it their duty to enquire into this matter.… Kemback came to Georg Trumbles house twixt 6 and 7 at night, and tarried till 8 hours, being in the companie Sir Georg Morrison, Achnanok, Mount, Andrew Dick, brother to Dairsie, Peter Clerke, and Georg Knox, the session refers to the presbetrie…” 1660: Sir George was required to take an oath on June 21st ‘I, Sir George Morison, doe solemnly protest and sweare by the most holy and dreadfull name of the eternal and everliving God, that I never had at any time, nor in any place, carnall dealing or copulation with Jonet Hamiltoun, sometime servant to my wyff; neither am I the father of the child brought forth by her, as she alledges.’ In November 1661 the wayward Sir George was once more summoned by the presbytery ‘for going to the single combate’ with the laird of Lathoker. 1692 – Dairsie passes to the Morrison’s largest creditor, Alexander Bruce of Broomhall, later Earl of Kincardine. Historical note on the Spottiswood family The biography of the Spottiswoods is one of those famous Scottish historical tragedies. John Spottiswood (1565-1639) was the Archbishop of St Andrews. His two sons were Sir John and Sir Robert. In 1638 he crowned Charles 1 at Holyrood. In 1635 he was appointed Lord Chancellor of Scotland, an office which he retained until 1638. He was opposed to the new liturgy mandated by Charles 1, but when he could not prevent its introduction he took part in enforcing it. He was present at the riot of St Giles (depicted below), Edinburgh, on the 23rd of July 1637 which began after the reading of the liturgy. It was then that Jenny Geddes threw her “cutty stool” at the head of the Dean. In view of the considerable opposition to the new liturgy Spottiswood tried in vain to avoid a disaster by making concessions. After hearing the response of the Covenanters he perceived that "now all that we have been doing these thirty years past is thrown down at once." He escaped to Newcastle, was deposed by the assembly on the 4th of December 1637 on a variety of far fetched charges and died in London on the 26th of November 1639, receiving burial in Westminster Abbey. Sir Robert Spottiswood (1596-1646) was the younger of John Spottiswood’s two boys. He was well educated and rose to the position of Secretary of State in Scotland and Lord President of the Court of Session. Sir Robert Spottiswood married Bethia Morrison, the sister of Sir Alexander Morrison of Prestongrange. He was well regarded by Charles 1, but fell out with the Covenanters in Scotland. He sided with the Marquis of Montrose, but was captured at the Battle of Philiphaugh in 1645. He was taken to St. Andrews where he was tried by parliament on the charge of having purchased the office of secretary without the consent of the estates, and also with having joined with Montrose against the state. Sir Robert pleaded that he had taken the office of secretary at the king's command, temporarily and under pressure of necessity, and he urged that, though he had been with Montrose, he had not borne arms, and also that he had received quarter when he submitted himself. On 10 Jan 1646 the case came on for hearing. His defence was dismissed and, after long debate, Spottiswood was executed on 16 Jan 1646. He was beheaded by the infamous “Scottish Maiden” guillotine at the market cross of St. Andrews where it was reported he maintained his customary courage and dignity. The victims of this instrument were laid on their backs and watched as the blade plummeted towards their throat. The Scottish “Maiden” Sir John Spottiswood, the elder brother of Sir Robert and son of Archbishop John Spottiswood, succeeded to the estate of Dairsie, Fifeshire, which had been purchased by his father from the Learmonth family, and was one of the gentlemen of the bedchamber to James VI. He sold Dairsie to his brother-in-law by marriage, Sir George Morrison. His only son, Mr. John Spottiswood, was a faithful adherent of Charles I, and having joined the Marquis of Montrose, was taken prisoner with him, tried, condemned and executed for high treason in 1650. As a result of both his brother and son’s executions, Sir John thought it expedient to take his family to England where he died in obscurity. It is then reasonable to conclude from the closeness of the Spottiswood and Morrison families of Alexander and George that when Sir John Spottiswood fell on hard times he contacted his relation my marriage Sir George Morrison to see if he would be interested in buying him out. When all the heat of the Covenanters came to bear down on the Spottiswoods, Sir George no doubt was also affected. Sir George probably felt the need to lay low, and along with growing personal debts, was forced to sell Dairsie. One is left to imagine what became of Bethia Morrison, the wife of the executed Sir Robert Spottiswood. Perhaps she returned to Prestongrange under the protection of her brother and nephew. Sir George Morrison most likely moved back across the Firth of Forth to Prestongrange. This scenario is supported by the geography. The Morrisons of Prestongrange owned a harbour, known then as “Morrison Haven”. His cousin Sir William of Prestongrange had rebuilt Morrison Haven at Prestonpans. It is a relatively short boat crossing from any of the many harbour landings along the Fife coast from St Andrews around to Dysart, and then into the safety of the well established Prestongrage family. The title of “Dairsie” distinguishes both George and his father Sir John from their Prestongrange relations of Lord Alexander and Sir Alexander of Prestongrange. There are references in court documents in 1654 and 1689 to George (son and heir to Sir John Morrison) which associate him with Prestongrange and Sauchtounhall which is the basis for assuming he had business dealings outside of Dairsie. Sir John Morrison’s Family Sir John Morrison was born in 1596 and died quite young in 1625 at the age of 29. His widow Nicola, daughter of Sir George Bruce of Carnock, married again to John Dick of Braid in 1630 (the son of William Dick and Elizabeth Morrison). The Morrison family of Sir John’s can be traced from his grandfather John Morrison and grandmother Katherine Preston who had seven children: Isaac (married Helen Arnot on 11 May 1595, Register of Marriages of the City of Edinburgh 1595-1700, Sir John’s father), Henry (married Christian Dick on 17 June 1606, Register of Marriages of the City of Edinburgh 1595-1700), Elizabeth (married William Dick of Braid on 15 June 1603, Register of Marriages of the City of Edinburgh 1595-1700), Alexander (later Lord Alexander, married Helenor Maule), Sarah (married James Inglis 12 October 1609 EMR), Catherine (married Sir William Scott 4 October 1621 OPR) and Helenor Morrison (married Samuel Johnston of Scheines 24 September 1617 EMR). Sir John was the son of Isaac Morrison and Helen Arnot. Henry (reported as Sir John Morrison’s “cadet”, born about 1638) was a Writer to the Signet and eldest son of John Morrison and Margaret Nicholson and grandson of Henry Morrison and Christian Dick, registered the Dairsie Arms in 1672 at the same time as his cousin Sir Alexander registered the Prestongrange Arms. The following year, 1673, Sir George Morrison of Bognie registered a similar set of Arms. Given the proximity in time and similarity of design could it be that all three families were related? To date no evidence has been found to demonstrate any family relationships the Bognie Morrisons. For a brief time Henry Morrison and Sir John Morrison were both Baillies of Edinburgh and Aberdeen. This is described later under the heading “Aberdeen”. Biography of the Morrisons of Prestongrange Records of the time identify John Morrison the elder as a reader: “1562, January 24.—Stipend to Mr David Lindesay £200 scots; to John Moresoun, reader, £20 scots. 1565.—The Tolbooth was erected in Leith by order of Mary, Queen of Scots. Her arms, originally built therein, are now within the Tower of South Leith Church”. (South Leith Records). When Robert Kerr, the second Earl of Lothian, succeeded to his father's estates he apparently had financial trouble that forced him to sell a portion of Prestongrange in the year of his father's death (1609) to John Morrison (who is reported as a rich merchant of Edinburgh and bailie (1581) before becoming treasurer of the city (1588)). John Morrison, the son of John Morrison and Beatrix Hill, was a wealthy Edinburgh merchant whose eldest son, Lord Alexander, achieved high status in the law as Lord Prestongrange in the Court of Session from 1626. Hayton, Cruikshanks and Handley (2002) state that Alexander took his designation “Lord Prestongrange” from a Haddingtonshire estate acquired from the indebted earls of Lothian, the Kerr’s. He also owned a property of some 13,000 acres in Peeblesshire. His eldest son, Alexander, succeeded him in 1631, and was later knighted by Charles I. According to Hayton, Cruikshanks and Handley (2002) Sir Alexander became an important figure in local and national politics. “He served on various committees of war from 1643 and supported the Engagement of 1647. He was fined, but ‘lived peaceable’, under the Cromwellian regime. A post-Restoration account of his conduct during the Civil War naturally emphasised his royalism. In a petition to the Scottish privy council in 1682 he claimed to be the only person still living who had voted against ‘that execrable and horrid act of delivering up his Majesty’s sacred person’ and had ‘signed the Duke of Hamilton’s commission when he went with the army to England’. As a Presbyterian, he came into increasing conflict with the authorities, and was fined for failing to support episcopal authority in his locality. One of Sir Alexander’s earlier achievements had been to secure a suitable match for his heir, Sir William. This action also brought him into conflict with the authorities, since the intended bride, Janet Rocheid, was under age. Although her marriage to William had long been in contemplation, swift action was necessitated by the death of her father and the interposition of an uncle wishing to marry her off to his own son, who was only nine years old. Janet and William were secretly conveyed to Berwick to be married in 1677, staying there ‘some two or three months, till she completed her 12 years of age, after which the marriage could not be dissolved’. The inviolability of the marriage did not, however, preclude prosecution. A total of 10,000 merks in fines was imposed on the guilty parties: William himself being liable for 1,500 merks and ‘sent to prison till it should be paid’. His father, though punished via his son’s fine, was cleared of all charges, whereas the bride’s mother was fined heavily. She was still seeking restitution in 1690, conveniently jumping on the bandwagon against ‘arbitrary’ rule in the wake of the Revolution. By the time of his father’s death in 1683, William Morrison had been married for six years and was already a father himself. Entering upon an economically diverse inheritance, he had been brought up to “appreciate the advantages of equivocation and opportunism” as a means of political survival. Some of his ventures included a glassworks and the expansion of the port now known as Morrison’s Haven at Prestonpans. He was not a man of high principle, being repeatedly guilty of sharp practice in business, but his Presbyterian background was strong enough to induce a Whiggish cast to his political outlook. During the Revolution he served as a commissioner of militia, and entered the Scottish parliament in 1690. In 1702 he transferred from Haddingtonshire to Peeblesshire and sat for that county until the Union. Sir William Morrison had acted consistently with the Court party until his fortunes were turned sour by the Darien disaster, having in 1696 invested the sizeable sum of £1,000 in the Company of Scotland. He was never truly a member of the Country party, but rather one of the so-called ‘honest men’ driven into opposition over the Darien issue. In 1700 he subscribed the petition for the summoning of parliament and later presented the Haddingtonshire remonstrance on Caledonia. Nominated by the opposition to the committees of trade in 1700–1, he soon reverted to the Court party, accepting the proposal for an address rather than an act of parliament over Caledonia. Morrison also remained with the ‘rump’ of courtiers in 1702 and even followed Queensberry’s line on the succession in 1704, when the Duke, finding himself temporarily out of office, was engaged in undermining the ‘New Party’ experiment. Morrison was rewarded, following Queensberry’s return to power, with a place on the union commission of 1706 (which was eventually worth £500 Scots) and with elevation to the Scottish privy council in May 1707”. (Hayton, Cruikshanks and Handley, On Line, 2002) William’s debts, many incurred from gambling, left his estate bankrupt. Prestongrange was acquired for £134,000 in 1746 by Wiliam Grant. “Morrison had been representative of the Barons of Scotland as a Commissioner for the Union and sealed the Articles of Union on 22nd July 1706. But it was a sad fact that although he had subsequently sat for many years as a Member of the Union Parliament in London for Haddingtonshire, his obsession with gambling had finally squandered everything his family had possessed for four generations since 1609. His father and grandfather had both in their turn been Lords of Session as Lord Prestoungrange [an office in which William secretly hoped to follow them one day], and his great grandfather Treasurer of Edinburgh” (Prestoungrange, 2009, p 8). The Morrison estate William Grant acquired included the Crown Baronies of Prestoungrange and of Dolphinstoun with some 10,000 acres of fine agricultural land as well as extensive coal reserves, oyster farming, very significant salt pans and their own harbour at Morrison’s Haven with a vigorous import/export trade. Some Historical Asides As an aside, one relative of the Prestongrange Morrison family named George Morrison (ostensibly a ship’s captain from Prestonpans according to McUre, 1736) is said to have married Margaret [or Marion] Young, the eldest daughter of John Young and Margaret Lyon, a merchant in Glasgow. There appears to be contradictory evidence whether her name was Margaret or Marion. The McUre (1736) reference states her name as Margaret. In the the Glasgow Commissariot (1547-1800) there are references to a George and Marion being Glasgow Burgesses (p 359: Morrison, George merchant and burgess 15 Aug 1620, and p 545: Young, Marion spouse to George Morrison, merchant, burgess of Glasgow 26 Nov 1614) and Dobson’s (1983) “Directory of Scots…” name her as Marion. It is estimated George must have been born in the late 1590s (there is no record of his parentage). Whether or not George was a ship’s captain, he is also listed as a Glasgow Burgess (p 359) in the Commissariat of Glasgow (p 359). They had four children: James, Isabel, Margaret and Marion. According to The History of Glasgow (McUre,1736, p 104) George died at sea. His son James became a Lieutenant in the cavalry. He married Margaret Logie. It is written in The History of Glasgow (McUre, p 104) that in 1651 James Morrison and many of Charles’ followers from Midlothian and Angus marched towards Worcester with the Earl of Dunfermline’s Horse from Dunfermline with other Scottish regiments where they were defeated by Cromwell’s Parliament Army on September 3rd 1651. Charles 11 escaped and fled to France. James and many of those captured were sent as prisoners to Barbados. James died of a fever before a plea for his release could be arranged. David Dobson’s “Directory of Scots Banished to the American Plantations 1650-1775” identifies James: ”Morrison, James, son of Marion [Margaret] Young in Glasgow, tra. to Barbados before 1654. [GR/1654/283]”. The debacle at Worcester has another Morrison connection. In the early part of the 1600s there was an Andrew Morrison who was the “collector in the north”. He was married to Barbara Ross (daughter of the Abbot of Fearn, Thomas Ross). One of their daughters, Barbara, was married to Kenneth McKenzie of Dingwell. They had a son who was killed at Worcester fighting for Charles. As a further aside and quite coincidently a century later there was a “Captain George Morrison” who is recorded in the 1830s as being in charge of a ship named the “Midlothian” which took many settlers from Skye to Australia. There is no record of his ancestry. Prestongrange and Ireland An even more curious coincidence relates to the following historical reference. The Morrisons and the Riddells were related by the marriage of Helen Morrison (daughter of Sir Alexander) to John Riddell, 3rd Baronet of Riddell in 1661. This marriage was 10 years after the battle of Worcester. However, the reference below would tend to give credence that some of the Morrison family from Prestongrage supported Lieutenant James Morrison of Glasgow at the battle of Worcester when he was captured. According to Gwynn Socolich (2010) who quotes from Walter Riddell Carre (Riddell-Carre, Border Memories, 1876): “I have some information about descendants of the old house, who flourish in Ireland, as well as in America, but I cannot say when or how they came off the parent tree. The Irish Riddells settled in Ulster, and intermarried with the Morrisons, who were forced to leave Scotland for their adherence to the royal cause after the battle of Worcester.” (Riddell Carre, 1876, pp 202-203) Gwynn Socolich says “The Morrisons were from Colraine, Londonderry, Northern Ireland. They also lived in the Shankhill area of Belfast. This family also came to settle in Londonderry, New Hampshire as did the Riddells”. (The Mystery Parish of Londonderry, Northern Ireland Ballymeath or Ballaymeath. What evidence is there or where should it be and it is not there? by Gwynn Socolich gsgenealogy@yahoo.com © 1 November 2010) Having Morrisons in Ireland who were from Prestongrange gives some plausibility to the claim by L A Morrison (1880) who made a similar connection back in the early 1800s. However, L A Morrison’s account is tainted with his persistent belief that all Morrisons originated on Lewis, and his story about Andrew Morrison has some fatal flaws which are nothing but wild speculation. He discusses the travels of Andrew Morrison (p 427) in 1715 who was forced to flee from Aberdeen (no reason given) to the Isle of Lewis “which he regarded as the cradle of his race, and settled in the north of Ireland” (p 427). What made Morrison think Andrew believed Lewis to be “the cradle of his race”? It is one of the fanciful embellishments Morrison is prone to. He writes that some time after Andrew died his grandson, a Hans Morrison, was approached by two gentlemen from Scotland who “urged his grandson to claim a baronetcy, to which they asserted he was the heir as the representative of Sir Alexander Morrison, Bart., of Preston Grange, in Scotland, whose daughter Helen married Sir John Riddell” (p 428). L A Morrison states “This family [Hans Morrison] is descended from the Morrisons of Preston Grange, Scotland” (p 430). He makes this claim based on a story and then details the family of Andrew and Hans as though the story was true and they were the legitimate heirs of Prestongrange. Sadly this fanciful assumption by L A Morrison is only that. Close scrutiny of his assumption reveals basic factual errors. According to all the birth records of the children from John Morrison and Margaret Preston down through Lord Alexander Morrison, Sir Alexander Morrison and Sir William Morrison, that is, the direct line of descent from Prestongrange, there is not one Andrew. Therefore this Andrew who L A Morrison describes as a Highlander from Aberdeen (again a further disqualification as the Morrisons were Lowlanders, and Prestongrange is in the Lothians and not in Aberdeen) could not lead any researcher to conclude he had any right of inheritance unless all the identified male children associated with the main line died without issue before about 1800, and that it also assumes Hans Morrison, Andrew’s grandson, could have proved a family relationship. Further to this, Sir Alexander had an heir, Sir William, and Sir William in turn had heirs (William and his son George), so Andrew could hardly be “the heir as the representative of Sir Alexander Morrison, Bart., of Preston Grange”. Secondly, from the recorded history of Sir William Morrison who died in 1739, we know two things. The first one is the Morrison connection with Prestongrange ceased after Sir William died in 1739 and ownership passed to William Grant in 1746 (who was later granted the title “Lord Prestongrange” in 1754). There never was a Baronetcy or other title for any Morrison to inherit after Sir William. It has to be understood that the Barony of Prestongrange was “a feudal barony, involving nothing less than tenure of lands from the Crown in chief, with as root of title a Charter under the Great Seal erecting the barony, and granted under the royal sign manual” (Peskett, 2010). The owner of the land was not a titled Baron, it was the land that was referred to as a Baronetcy, so therefore there never was a title to inherit when Prestongrange was sold. The second thing we know is that Sir William had at least five sons: Alexander, William, John, Henry and James. The last recorded member of this family was George Morrison of “Little Chalfield" who was born 1718 and died in 1788, the only child of William Morrison’s first marriage to Amarinta (no other information about this marriage). One has to question why two mysterious gentlemen came to Ireland (presumably after George died, the last recorded male Prestongrange Morrison). If there had been a title to inherit then any of Sir William’s survivors would have been in line, but none of them sought or had a title. The last of the Prestongrange children to have titles were Sir William’s daughters who gained them through marriage (Lady Catherine of Strathnaver, Countess Helen of Glasgow and Jean, Viscountess of Arbuthnot). If the “two mysterious gentlemen” story is true then they were nothing more than charlatans. The indisputable fact is there was no title or Baronetcy to inherit, so L A Morrison’s story is a rather feeble tale of nonsense. By contrast, the Bognie Morrisons do have a heritable title and were established around Aberdeen. However, to fit the time frame of this mysterious Andrew it is worthy to note that he could not have been from this family as neither George Morrison (1620-1699) and his eldest son Theodore (1685-1766) had any children named Andrew. There were, however, several Andrew Morrisons associated with Aberdeen at this time but there is no record of which family they belonged to. The Prestongrange Lineage John Morrison (About 1515, died 16 Dec 1573) described in Edinburgh records as the elder, a merchant and burgess of Edinburgh, married about 1537 to Beatrix Hill. She died on 9 Sept 1587. John was a Burgess and Guild Brother in Edinburgh from 1537. Records from South Leith report “1562, January 24.—Stipend to … to John Moresoun, reader, £20 scots”. There is a Will in the Scottish Records Office for Morisoun Johne Burgess of Edinburgh 16 December 1573. John Morrison (Abt 1545-1615) was a Bailie of Edinburgh 1581 and Treasurer 1588, married 1570 Katherine Preston (Abt 1552 - 1595), the daughter of John Preston, an Edinburgh Burgess. There are references to John Morrison being the son of John Morrison and Beatrix Hill. The Edinburgh Burgess Records of 1406-1700 indicate that John Morrison and Beatrix Hill were already married by 1535 when John was a Burgess and Guild Brother (p 359). Note: From the Forrester history (Paul, 1907) comes an example of John Morrison’s wealth: “Henry Forrester of Corstorphine was served heir to is brother, August 20, 1589. On December 21, 1598, he sold to John Moreson, merchant of Edinburgh, the Plewlands and Sacristan’s lands, otherwise Broomhoouse, the lands of Whitehouse at Corstorphine and the hill there (pp 89-90).” According to the Prestongrange Museum resource notes, “On his father’s death in 1584, Mark Ker’s son, also Mark, was confirmed in his right to the Newbattle lands by King James I and VI. In 1587 the king issued a charter granting Mark Ker the younger and his heirs the title to the lands of Newbattle monastery and the baronies of Newbattle and Prestongrange. He was given the title Lord Newbattle and in 1606 was created Earl of Lothian. On his death in 1609, his estate was worth almost £37,000. Although his wife, Margaret Maxwell, is recorded as having died at Prestongrange in 1617, their son Robert, 2nd Earl of Lothian, did not continue the family’s involvement with the estate, probably due to the crippling burden of debt resulting from the effort to maintain a noble lifestyle. In 1624, he killed himself at Newbattle, having sold off the Prestongrange Estate some years before”. Robert Ker, the 2nd Earl of Lothian, sold some of the Prestongrange lands in the year of his father's death [1609] to John Morrison, a merchant of Edinburgh who was treasurer of the city in 1588 and three times a Bailie. He was the ancestor of a succession of Morrisons who owned Prestongrange down to 1746. In 1644 the Morrisons sold 64 acres of their lands to John Jowsie, a merchant burgess of Edinburgh, who was married to Henry Morrison and Katherine Dick’s daughter Catherine. Writing about the history of Edinburgh Stuart Harris (1996) records 117 High Street Edinburgh: “Morrison’s Close is listed on Edgar 1742 and recorded in 1750 as having a great house on its East side, owned of old by John Morison, merchant, and after him by John Morison of Dairsey. These may possibly have been the John Moresoun who was bailie in 1582 and served on the town council in various capacities (including that of old or depute provost in 1590) until about 1603, and another John Morrison, merchant and member of town council in the 1630s, who was certainly connected with the close, being listed in 1635 as owner of the property in it -albeit on the west side, not east”. (from Stuart Harris, 1996, Place Names of Edinburgh, p 443) Morrison’s Close, 117 High Street, Edinburgh (Photographic copy of drawing of Morrison's Close from James Drummond's "Old Edinburgh”) “The Close is named after John Morrison, a merchant, who lived there in the early 18th century. The core of the buildings was stone, but many had timber extensions, which made the streets narrower and darker, but provided more space for those living above” (http://canmore.org.uk/collection/460295). The Book of the Old Edinburgh Club (1923) suggests “Property in this close was owned by John Morrison, merchant. On the east side was the great house, owned of old by John Moriesone, and, after him, by John Moriesone of Dairsey, the town wall lying to the north of the close” (Vol 12, p 43). John Morrison is listed as an Edinburgh Councillor in 1574 and 1582, and Treasurer in 1588-9, for example: 2 July 1589. Capitane of the Castell, Lord Mortoun.

He was a member of the committee of estates and planters of kirks (1649, 1651), and a commissioner to parliament for the shire of Edinburgh in 1650-51. He joined Argyll in March 1651 in unsuccessfully opposing moves to admit some of those excluded from civil office since 1649 to the committee to manage the army. He was a commissioner of supply in 1655. Contemporaries considered him competent, and he was described by Nicoll as ‘a very guid judge’ (Nicoll, 188).

Note: Reference to John Morrison and his son Isaac in the will of Walter Cant: “is signed and dated at Edinburgh, on the 18th July 1594. Among the witnesses are John Moresoun, burgess there, and Isaac Moresoun his son” (Smith, 1898, p 24). The following reference examples are given to substantiate the information regarding Henry and Harie Morrison: “Two months later [October 1616] a ship of Leith belonging to William Robertson was searched and tallow was found therein, along with candles and other forbidden goods belonging to Harry Moresoun, merchant: the ship and her illegal cargo were arrested” (McMillan, 1984, p 115). Monumental Inscriptions (1834): “Here lyeth Harie Morison, youngest son to John Morison; he was baillie of this burgh; died the 1 August 1623, the 39 year of his age”. There is a Will in the Scottish Records Office for Moresone Harie 19/02/1624 Merchant, Burgess of Edinburgh. “1624, June.—Warrant in the King's name to his sheriffs On complaint of Isaac, Harie, Alexander, Jonet, Margaret, Katherine and Christian, the children of umquhile Harie Morisone, merchant of Edinburgh” (Lomas, 1909, pp 205-6). Henry Morrison and Sir Andrew Dick of Craighouse: “He was bred to the law, and became an advocate in the Court of Session; and having married his cousin Christina, only daughter and heiress of Henry Morrison, a wealthy merchant-burgess of Edinburgh, with her he received a large accession to his estate, 4000 merks of yearly rent in houses in Edinburgh, and 59,000 merks in money.' But their married life was of short duration, and their only son William died very young. Upon the death of his wife Christina, Mr. Andrew Dick was left with one little daughter, called Elizabeth (The Grange of St Giles, 1898, p 92). Note also that Andrew Dick is mentioned in 1655 as being in the company of Sir George Morrison of Dairsie following the suspicious death of “Mr Jhone Sieus laird of Kembocke in Fife” (The Grange of St Giles, pp 92-93). There appears to be a name issue whereby Henry and Harie become interchangeable spellings. Some time after 1672 Agnes Wilkie who married Henry Morrison WS took court action against her sister in law (Henry’s sister) Christian who was married to George Stewart (Stuart) of Auldhame (in Haddington). According to John Gough Nichols (1874, p 259) “….They [Stewarts] had a daughter, Katharine, omitted in the Baronage, who married Henry [in fact it was Harie] Morrison, merchant and bailie of Edinburgh, and had issue. The Morrisons were like the Dicks, a family of wealthy merchant-burgesses of Edinburgh, and rose a little earlier… Henry’s [Harie’s] sister Elizabeth was the wife of Sir William Dick; [their son] Mr. John Dick, fiar of Braid, married the widow [Nicola] of his cousin-german Sir John Morrison of Dairsie, Fife; and Sir Andrew Dick of Craighouse [born about 1650] married the heiress of Henry Morrison [Christina], a rich merchant in Edinburgh, also a near relative. Alexander Morrison of Prestongrange in East Lothian, a senator of the College of Justice 1626-1631, was brother of Sir William Dick's wife [Elizabeth Morrison]. These Morrisons are repeatedly designed of Saughtounhall in the Baronage”. The name Henry and Harie often appear to be interchanged in various Edinburgh records. It is not altogether reliable to state categorically which is which when linking these two names to marriages, however for some Harie/Henry births particular families have been identified because the parents names are given. One example of a Harie whose parentage is known is the marriage and birth references to Henry then Harie Morrison. Henry became Harie when he married secondly Janet Spottiswood (parentage unknown) who had children Christian 1620 OPR, Alexander 1622 OPR, and Elizabeth 1624 OPR. It was later established this was in fact Henry Morrison whose first marriage had been to Christian Dick. The discovery of this fact was found in the Commissariot of Edinburgh 1601-1700 account (p 379). There are no indications in the records of the time who Jonet’s parents were as there are no references to John Spottiswood’s family tree to a daughter Jonet. There was at this time a rug merchant in Edinburgh whose surname was Spottiswood. Again, there is no reference to suggest these two different Spottiswood’s were related. There is a similar coincidence of the Morrison and Arnot names with the marriage of John Morrison and Grissell Arnot on 7 Dec 1620. It is not known which Morrison family John came from, or for that matter whether or not Grissell was a relation of Isaac Morrison’s wife Helen Arnot. Lord Alexander Morrison (1579-1632) married 6 September 1610 Helenor Maule (1581-1664), daughter of William Maule a merchant and Dean of Guild of Edinburgh (the son of Robert Maule and Isabel Arbuthnot) and Bethia Guthrie (daughter of Alexander Guthrie, town-clerk of Edinburgh). See the note below regarding Helenor’s second marriage to Sir James Monnypenny after Lord Alexander Morrison died. Lord Alexander was the brother of Isaac Morrison who also became a Baillie of Edinburgh (and whose son was Sir John Morrison). Lord Alexander no doubt benefitted from the establishment of Edinburgh University in 1583 which began its early life as a College of Law. Note: There are numerous references to Alexander in the Scottish Records, for example: Extracts from the Records of the Burgh of Edinburgh, 10th January 1627. “[The voluntary contribution by new burgesses to St. Paul's Work amounts to £134, 6s. 8d.] 1 Pp. 10-12 supra. 2 See Crawford, pp.106 and 111. The office of rector had been held previously by Mr Alexander Ramsay, professor of divinity, elected in 1620 for one year only, but who held what he admitted to have been an empty title, for six years (Bower, i. pp. 47 and 48). This office was ill-defined at this time. Bower states that Mr Robert Rollock was both principal and rector, but without quoting his authority. Mr Alexander Morison was a son of John Morison, several times bailie of Edinburgh, and Katherine, daughter of Sir John Preston, Lord President in 1609. He was admitted an ordinary Lord in 1626. He died in 1631…. [As] a member of Scotland’s legal elite, Alexander Morison’s history is better known and recorded. Born in 1579, he died at Prestongrange on 20 September 1631; his wife was Helenora, daughter of William Mauld, merchant and burgess of Edinburgh, whom he married 6 September 1610. [after the death of Alexander, Heleanor married Sir James Monneypenny 18th of Pitmilly in 1637] Admitted to the Faculty of Advocates on 25 January 1604, he became a lord of session – Lord Prestongrange – on 14 February 1626.

He was one of the Committee of Estates which met at Perth in 1651, and appears by his votes to have belonged to the party which, under the Marquis of Argyle, opposed the admission of those then called Malignants to share in the defence of the country. He died December 2-3, 1656. He was twice married; first, to Katherine, daughter of Alexander Morison of Prestongrange, whose mother was Katherine, daughter of Sir John Preston of Fenton Barns, Lord President from 1609 to 1616. Alexander Morison was elected Rector of the University of Edinburgh in 1627. Katherine Scott, the wife of Hugh Montgomerie, was a child of this first marriage. Sir William's second wife was Barbara, daughter of Sir John Dalmahoy of that Ilk, by whom he had several children, and is the ancestor of the Blairs of Blair, and of the Scotts of Malleny” (Montgomery, p 78). 3. “248. Contract of Marriage dated at Edinburgh,27th February, 1656, between James Beattone, fiar of Balfour, with consent of John Beattone of Balfour, and Katherine Halyburton, his spouse, father and mother of the said James, and Katherine Moriesone, Lady Wedderburn, with consent of Sir Alexander Moriesone of Prestongrange, knight, her brother germain, and Sir James Monniepennie of Pitmillie, knight, her brother-in-law [married to Heleanor Maule after the death of Alexander Morrison in 1631]. She is to be provided in liferent in the lands of Kennoquhie and others in life; and she conveys to her future husband her liferent interest in Wedderburn. This is also James Beattone' s second marriage. Among the witnesses are Sir John Moncreiff of that Ilk, Sir James Murray of Skirline,and Mr. Robert Gordoune, one of the clerks of Exchequer. At a later date there is a further security made to Katherine Moriesone by her husband, James Bethun, younger of Balfour, and David Bethun of Creich, his son, on the occasion of the latter's marriage to Rachell Hop ; dated at Balfour, 29th July 1669; witnesses, John Bethun of Blebo, David Lyndsay, fiar of Kirkforthar, and David Bethun, younger of Bandon “ (Historical Manuscripts Commission, p 105). Note above the reference to Sir James Monnypenny being [Katherine’s] “her brother-in-law”. It appears that after Katherine’s brother Alexander died in 1631 his wife Heleanor married Sir James Monnypenny in 1637 and had two sons, John and Alexander. Sir James died in 1657. Sir Alexander Morrison (of Prestongrange, 1616-1687) married Jean Boyd 9/7/1637 OPR daughter of 7th Lord Robert Boyd and 2nd wife Lady Christian (Hamilton) Lindsay. There is a Will registered to Sir Alexander Moriesone of Prestongrange dated 18/4/1687 in the Scottish Records Office. Note: The Boyd family have a prominent role in the history of Scotland dating back to the Battle of Largs. The Boyds were loyal followers of Robert the Bruce, implicated in the death of Lord Darnley, and Robert Boyd was highly favoured by King James V. “Seventh Lord Robert Boyd (died 1628) married, first, Margaret, daughter of Robert Montgomerie of Giffen, relict of Hugh fifth Earl of Eglintoun, without issue (she died in 1615); secondly, Lady Christian Hamilton, eldest daughter of Thomas first Earl of Haddington, relict of Robert tenth Lord Lindsay of Byres…” (Reference: A genealogical account of the principal families in Ayrshire, more particulary (sic) in Cunninghame, Vol 1, A Constable and Co, Edinburgh, George Robertson, 1823, p 109). Some references only mention four daughters, omitting Agnes: “…Robert [Boyd] his Son and Heir, and four Daughters, Jean married to Sir Alexander Morison of Prestongrange, and had Issue. Isobel to Sir John Sinclair of Stevenson, and had Issue, Christian to Sir William Scot of Harden, and had Issue, Marion to Sir James Dundass of Arnistoun, and had Issue”.

(1710) The peerage of Scotland: containing an historical and genealogical account of the nobility of that Kingdom (http://name.umdl.umich.edu/004896390.0001.000) Cracroft’s Peerage notes that “Robert by his second wife Lady Christian Lindsay had seven children, Robert (later 8th Lord Boyd), Helen (died unmarried), Agnes (married before 17 April 1647 Sir George Morrison of Dairsie), Jean (married Sir Alexander Morrison of Prestongrange), Marion (married after 12 Nov 1641 Sir James Dundas of of Arniston), Isabel (married after 29 May 1638 John Sinclair of Stevenston) and Christian Boyd (married after 26 Oct 1641 Sir William Scott of Ardross)” (http://www.cracroftspeerage.co.uk/online/content/boyd1454.htm). James Paterson (1852, p 180) confirms the Cracroft account of the Morrison and Boyd marriages. Alexander is the first cousin of Sir John Morrison. Children of Sir Alexander and Jean Boyd: Janet, married David Wilkie (Dean of Guild) 14/1/1658 Jean ,married 1670 Sir John Nisbet of Craigentinnie, Dean and Dirleton (his third marriage), died 18 Nov 1695. Buried Kirk of Prestonpans 25 Nov 1695. Catherine Christian, married William Bennet of Grubet in 1665. Helen, married 1661 John Riddell (his 2nd of 3 marriages), 3rd Baronet of Riddell (son of Walter Riddell and Christian Nisbet). They had a daughter Christian who married Sir Henry Nisbett (see p 59 above). William (born 18 April 1663-1739) who later became Sir William Morrison married 1676 Janet Rocheid, Thomas According to Hayton, Cruikshanks and Handley (2002) William was the first surviving son of Sir Alexander and Jean Boyd. Note: In the list of members to the A History of Writers to Her Majesty’s Signet, (p 149) the following reference is given: “ 16th August 1671. Moresone, Henry. Apprentice to James Allan - Eldest son of John Moresone, Merchant Burgess, Edinburgh. Died 1674. Mar. Agnes Wilkie.” It has so far not been possible to establish beyond doubt which John Morrison this was, but the reasonable assumption is that it is John Morrison born 1608 who was married to Margaret Nicholson, eldest son of of Henry Morrison who was married to Christian Dick. There are numerous historical references to “Henry Morrison WS”. Helenor (daughter of Lord Alexander Morrison) married Robert Gordon of Gordonston (see note below re Debt Discharge). There is another reference to a Helenor of Prestongrange who married Robert Gordon of “Cluny“ (sic). In “The House of Gordon” Helenor is specifically identified as belonging to “Mr Alexander Morrison of Prestongrange”. She died at Edinburgh 1660, and had three children: Robert Gordon born in 1658 who married Catherine Arbuthnot in 1687, and two girls who died young. The date here would indicate Helenor married about 1657. This connection with the Gordons and Arbuthnots comes up again with Helenor’s nephew William and his daughter Jean.

In 1641, when Montrose was prosecuted by the committee of estates on a charge of treason, John Nisbet was one of the three counsel whom the prisoner petitioned to be allowed to plead for him, the other two, who were greatly Nisbet's seniors, being Sir John Gilmour and Sir Lues Stewart.

See the historical note below about the scandal surrounding this marriage and their young ages. William is the second cousin Sir George Morrison of Dairsie.

John 1691 OPR Henry 1692 OPR James 1693 OPR Note: The marriage between Helen and John Boyle (2nd Earl of Glasgow) in 1707 produced 12 children. These children were the 1st cousins of George Morrison (the last direct male descendant of Prestongrange) who was the son of William, Helen’s brother). Thus George Morrison had as one of these cousins, John Boyle (1714-1775), who became the 3rd Earl of Glasgow after his father’s death in 1740. George’s aunt, Helen, Countess of Glasgow died in Edinburgh 7 July 1767. The 3rd Earl was succeeded by his son George Boyle 4th Earl of Glasgow (1766- 1843) who styled himself Lord Boyle. Historical references regarding Sir William Morrison Sir William Morrison married at the earliest legal age possible. The following account of his marriage which was contracted by his father is detailed as follows by David Wilkinson (2002): One of Sir Alexander’s earlier achievements had been to secure a suitable match for his heir, William. This action also brought him into conflict with the authorities, since the intended bride, Janet Rocheid, was under age. Although her marriage to William had long been in contemplation, swift action was necessitated by the death of her father and the interposition of an uncle wishing to marry her off to his own son, who was only nine years old. Janet and William were secretly conveyed to Berwick to be married, staying there ‘some two or three months, till she completed her 12 years of age, after which the marriage could not be dissolved’. The inviolability of the marriage did not, however, preclude prosecution. A total of 10,000 merks in fines was imposed on the guilty parties: William himself being liable for 1,500 merks and ‘sent to prison till it should be paid’. His father, though punished via his son’s fine, was cleared of all charges, whereas the bride’s mother was fined heavily. She was still seeking restitution in 1690, conveniently jumping on the bandwagon against ‘arbitrary’ rule in the wake of the Revolution. By the time of his father’s death in 1683, William Morison, although not yet 21, had been married for six years and was already a father himself. Entering upon an economically diverse inheritance, he had been brought up to appreciate the advantages of equivocation and opportunism as a means of political survival. He was not a man of high principle, being repeatedly guilty of sharp practice in business, but his Presbyterian background was strong enough to induce a Whiggish cast to his political outlook. During the Revolution, he served as a commissioner of militia, and entered the Scottish parliament in 1690. In 1702 he transferred from Haddingtonshire to Peeblesshire and sat for that county until the Union. Morison had acted consistently with the Court until turned sour by the Darien disaster, having in 1696 invested the sizable [sic] sum of £1,000 in the Company of Scotland. He was never truly a member of the Country party, but rather one of the so-called ‘honest men’ driven into opposition over the Darien issue. In 1700 he subscribed the petition for the summoning of parliament and later presented the Haddingtonshire remonstrance on Caledonia. Nominated by the opposition to the committees of trade in 1700–1, he soon reverted to the Court, accepting the proposal for an address rather than an act of parliament over Caledonia. Morison also remained with the ‘rump’ of courtiers in 1702 and even followed Queensberry’s line on the succession in 1704, when the Duke, finding himself temporarily out of office, was engaged in undermining the ‘New Party’ experiment. Morison was rewarded, following Queensberry’s return to power, with a place on the union commission of 1706 (which was eventually worth £500 Scots) and with elevation to the Scottish privy council in May 1707. In a contemporary squib he was satirized as supporter of the Union, the humour turning upon his physical ‘bulk’ and alleged stupidity. (Reference: David Wilkinson, published online in the History of Parliament: the House of Commons 1690-1715, D Hayton, E Cruikshanks and S Handley (eds), 2002). The Downfall of Sir William Morrison Sonia Baker (2000) has written a most detailed account of the history of Prestongrange, and makes this summary of Sir William Morrison: There is little doubt that William was a man who would exploit any opportunity to his advantage: he is recorded as being perhaps hesitant to pay his dues relating to the coal road access across the neighbouring Pinkie lands. And with about 63% of his non-agricultural income being derived from salt, Morison was certainly guilty of by-passing the laws on salt duty, being twice found guilty between 1719 and 1721. Evidently the penalties charged – £430 Scots – were minimal compared with the profits gained. However, while Green puts his demise down to the fact that in London, William Morison unfortunately took to gambling and lost his money, with the result that he became moody and strange and he indeed owed an enormous amount of money to Colonel Charteris – a noted gambler – there was more to William Morison’s downfall than just gambling. One of Alexander Morison’s debts, relating to money borrowed by him from Nisbet of Dirleton, in 1691, was only resolved in William Morison’s favour in 1703. A very complex case developed alongside this one, this time between William Morison and Nisbet of Dirleton, which appears to have lasted from the 1690s through to 1733; it concerned monies gifted to William Morison’s sister, Joan, who had married into the Nisbet of Dirleton family and, in the process acquired a step- daughter. This lady, Lady Scott, because of the law of entail, could not inherit her father’s estate, and felt that the heir of entail – who had agreed to give the bond to Joan Morison – had no right to do so. In spite of numerous discharges of the bond, and deaths of Lady Scott, the original pursuer, the case continued being heard in court, appealed against, and returning to court, until 1733, when the records, though not the case, end. By the second decade of the eighteenth century, a further agenda appears to this case, when letters are being sent, by the Nisbet faction, to various members of the aristocracy appealing for their support. They were successful in getting the Duke of Roxburghe, Lord Belhaven and, through the last, the Duke of Argyl and Lord Islay on their side against Morison. William Scot’s comment is also revealing about the way that the Anglophile, post-Union parliament operated all the entreat in my power is useless against the English... the lawiers in the house determines it seldom or never coming to a vote. PS as [to] my own opinion, I must indeed say that Prestongrange will reverse the decree, it having to my judgement little foundation in law. The same document also records a letter from Robert Dundas, solicitor, who agreed to act for Nisbet, even though he had already been approached by Morison to act on his behalf. It looks rather as if the Scottish establishment were acting as a unit to condemn someone who perhaps was not actually, in this instance at least, guilty. Nevertheless, other surviving documents do suggest that William Morison was living beyond his means. Perhaps he was a man who lived on the edge of what was legal, as his affairs on death proved to be a nightmare to sort out. Important documents that would have clarified whether his (sizeable) debts to the family of Colonel Charteris had been discharged, were noticeably absent. Because of the state of his affairs on his death, various official papers were drawn up relating to the estate, providing later readers with almost as many questions as answers. The Minutes for the Creditors of Prestongrange show that, by 1716, Morison had two bonds from Colonel Charteris, totalling £14,305 sterling, with no evidence of them being discharged. It is well known that Prestongrange had no funds to pay such a sum, but out of the rents of his estate here in Scotland so that if either Prestongrange or his factors had applied so considerable part of the rents towards payments of these 2 debts it is incredible but that proper documents of such payments would have been taken. It cannot be alleged that Prestongrange’s writings have been abstracted or embezzled, and as no documents are produced, or any the least evidence offered to instruct payment of so considerable sum other than this null- doquet subjoined to the Act which, if genuine, appears to have been instituted in the view of a sale of lands which never took effect. It is indeed possible that Prestongrange would have another duplicate, what became of that the creditors cannot tell. There would have been repeated diligences for recovery [in] Prestongrange’s writings, but considering in what great confusion his affairs were, how negligent he was, and yet his residence was very uncertain, sometimes at Edinburgh, sometimes in the country, very frequently in London, there can scarce be any doubt that many of his writings have been mislaid or lost which probablie will never be recovered. Acting as a curator for Francis Charteris of Ampsfield (Colonel Charteris’ grandson) was the Lord Justice Clerk, Andrew Fletcher of Miltown, who managed to locate copies of the bonds in the Charteris papers. He also located a further bond for £1746 19 shillings 5 pence sterling dated 26.5.1726, and another for £820 dated 22.6.1722. Other documents indicate that the rot did not stop there: Morison appeared to request assistance over a loan for £15,125,69 and an appraisal of the debts due to the creditors was, by the 1740s, given at £24,472 5 shillings 8 pence, while the estate was valued at around £26,000.70”. (Sonia Baker, 2000, pp 19-21). Notes: The following note about the burial of Janet Rocheid identifies the fact that as of 2 October 1712 William was the only surviving son meaning that his brothers Alexander, John, Henry and James were all deceased. His three sisters are identified in this record as follows: “Rochead, Janet, Lady Prestongrange, who was interred in her own burial place in Church of Prestonpans, the 2 of October 1712, left issue a son unmarried, 3 daughters, the eldest married the Lord Strathnaver, the second to my Lord Boyle, the third to the Viscount of Arbuthnot” (Index to genealogies, birthbriefs and funeral escutcheons recorded in the Lyon Office, Grant, 1908, p 46) “Morison - William - Sone of Wm. Morison of Prestongrange to his Mother Janet Rochead or Morison of Craigleith who died - September 1713 - Heir Special in Craig of Innerleith, Morsmelling, Guilsknow etc. - Edinburghshire - dated 1st April 1715”. (Index to the Services of Heirs in Scotland 1700-1799). William gained the lands of Craigleith in 1730. William Morrison is identified as the “younger of Prestongrange” as inheriting the lands and estate of Craigleith on 21 July 1730, registered on 14th February 1731 (An Accurate Alphabetical Index of the Registered Entails in Scotland, 1884, p 95). “Henrietta [Dallas, daughter of James Dallas of St Martins], served one of the heirs portioners of her father, 28th May 1746. She married (1) William Morrison of Craigleith, and (2), on 10th November 1763, George Dallas, merchant, London. William Morrison of Craigleith, son of William Morrison of Prestongrange, had three sisters, (1) Katherine, wife of Wm. Lord Strathnower, eldest son of the 15th Earl of Sutherland, (2) Helen, wife of John, 2nd Earl of Glasgow, and (3) Jean, wife of John, 5th Viscount Arbuthnott, who were appointed heirs portioners of his estate, showing he left no issue. Under their post-nuptial contract of marriage, dated 31st July 1730, and only registered 15th December 1749, Wm. Morrison, younger, of Prestongrange provided her with a yearly income of 1400 marks in the event of no issue. One of the witnesses to the deed was Mn. Boyle of Shewalton, brother to the Earl of Glasgow. The Trustees were John, Lor Boyle, and Robert Dundas of Arniston”. (Reference: Dallas family history p 349). Note also that in 1687 George Morrison of Pitfour married Margaret Dallas (daughter of George Dallas WS of St Martins and Margaret Abercromby. George Dallas’ eldest son James (first marriage to Elizabeth Riddell) had by his second marriage to Barbara Cockburn a daughter Henrietta Dallas who married William Morrison, son of William Morrison and Janet Rocheid.

John Lord Boyle is married with Helen, Daughter of William Morison of Prestoungrange. There is a reference to Helen Morrison of Prestongrange being married to John Boyle, 2nd Earl of Glasgow. This is William’s daughter Helen (1688) (Reference: www.mydunlap.net/Alexander%20Dunlap.html). William Nisbet of Craigintinnie and Dirleton. (For marriages and children see Dirleton pedigree.) “Infeft in the remaining eight oxengates of the lands of Restalrig, described as the south-east and middle rooms of Restalrig, on 24th October 1712. He executed an entail of the estate of Restalrig on 5th September 1722 to David Nisbet, son of his second marriage with Mrs Jean Bennet, daughter of Mr Robert Bennet, dean of the faculty of advocates, whom failing, to Walter Nisbet (see No. VI.), the second son of his first marriage with a niece of dame Jean Morison, the third wife of sir John Nisbet, first of Dirleton, whom failing, to Mrs Christian Nisbet, his eldest daughter, and Sir John Scott of Ancrum, her husband. He was succeeded by his son Walter”. The niece of Jean Morrison referred to above is her sister Helen’s daughter (Helen Morrison and John Riddell), Christian, who married Sir Henry Nisbet of Dean. The end of the Prestongrange Morrisons From all the accounts available the Morrison “Barony of Prestongrange” came to and end seven years after the death of Sir William Morrison. The forced sale of Prestongrange explains why Sir William’s son William was unable to become the heir to Prestongrange. Perhaps he could see the writing on the wall in so far as the protracted legal action against his father had the potential to ruin him as well as the estate. Whatever the reasons may have been, all the emphasis for the eventual demise of the Morrisons of Prestongrange appears to fall squarely on Sir William Morrison. Sir William Morrison, the eldest son of Sir Alexander Morrison, whose financial difficulties are detailed above, died overseas in 1739. Murray (1966, p 4) claims when “William Morrison died in 1739” he was “… succeeded by his son Alexander who sold Prestongrange to an Edinburgh advocate, William Grant…”. This is factually incorrect as Alexander died in 1703. It was not William’s son who sold Prestongrange in 1746, rather it was William Grant who legislated for its sale as a Charter of Vendition to himself. Thus the Scottish families of the Morrisons of Dairsie and Prestongrange finally came to an end when “Grant bought the Baronies of Prestongrange and Dolphinstone on 19 May, 1745” (Baker, 2000, p 24). The Norman family, de Quincy, had the estate of Prestongrange until they supported the losing side in the run-up to Bannockburn. It then went to the Abbey of Newbattle and, in turn, to the families of Kerr, Morrison and Grant. Prestongrange House today, now used as a clubhouse for the Royal Musselburgh Golf Club The Barony of Prestongrange Hugh Peskett gives the following historical account of the Barony of Prestongrange: “2.1. Prestongrange was part of the lands of Newbattle Abbey and within the Abbey's Barony of Newbattle. For example a charter of James V in 1526 granted the Abbot licence to build a harbour to protect from storms the fishers super litus maris infra terras de Prestoun-grange in baronia de Newbotle, and on suppression of that Abbey the lands were granted to Mark Kerr (who sometimes used the designation “of Prestongrange") by Charter under the Great Seal 1587; in 1591 King James VI ratified a charter ..de terris de Prestoungrange cum manerie et villa ... and other lands . .. omnes dictas terras &c erigendo in liberam baronial de Prestoungrange . . . and incorporated this into the lordship of Newbattle, at the same time creating Mark Kerr a lord of Parliament as Lord Newbattle. 2.2. In 1606 Lord Newbattle was created Earl of Lothian, and in 1620 his son Robert 2nd Earl of Lothian had a Charter of novodamus which incorporated the lands and barony of Prestongrange into the lordship of Newbattle, with a further charter incorporating other lands into the lordship in 1621. He then in 1622 disponed the lands and Barony of Prestongrange, under reversion, to Alexander Morison, Advocate, who had a Charter pass the Great Seal with the lands and Barony of Newbattle in Special Warrandice, the Earl having made provision for his countess, whose marriage contract had been secured on Prestongrange. Alexander Morison had this in security for 40,000 merks advanced under a contract dated 24 December 1622, registered in the Books of Council and Session 23 July 1623. 2.3. Robert 2nd Earl of Lothian renounced the reversion 1 August 1623 (Alexander Morison obtained a Decreet of Declarator that the right of reversion was void 29 November 1628), and Alexander Morison had a Charter of novodamus pass the Great Seal 29 August 1622 of tetras et baroniam de Prestoungrange ... incorporated de novo into the liberam baroniam de Prestoungrange, with the lands and barony of Newbattle (likewise incorporated de novo) in special warrandice. This Charter of novodamus in favour of Alexander Morison, Advocate, is for present purposes the root of title of the Barony of Prestongrange. 2.4. Alexander Morison of Prestongrange was served heir to Alexander Morison of Prestongrange unius senatorem supremi senatus, his father, 3 January 1632, and William Morison of Prestongrange was served heir to Sir Alexander Morison of Prestongrange, his father, 31 December 1684. 2.5. Thereafter the Barony of Prestongrange came into common ownership with the Barony of Dolphinston, and both were contained in a Charter of Vendition in favour of William Grant, 1746”. (The Barony of Prestongrange, Hugh Peskett, 1997, pp 3-4) Murray, Apted and Hodkinson (on line) claim that when William died in 1739 he was succeeded by his son Alexander who sold Prestongrange to William Grant in 1746. William did have an eldest son Alexander, however, there do not appear to be any records regarding his entitlement to Prestongrange, and Alexander died in 1703. However, his younger brother William is named in the disposal of Prestongrange as being the only lawful heir: “… the Lords of Council and Session upon the Thirtieth day of July One thousand seven hundred and fourty five years In a process of Ranking and Sale at the Instance of John Viscount of Arbuthnot Against the said William Morison Elder of Prestongrange & his whole Creditors therein mentioned and all others having or pretending to have Interest and also after the decease of the said William Morison Elder Against William Morison younger of Prestongrange his only lawfull son and apparent heir Duely and Lawfully ADJUDGED DECERNED AND DECLARED to pertain and belong to the said William Grant Esqr (in the said Decreet designed Mr William Grant Advocate) and his heirs and assignys heretably and irredeemably as the highest offerer and lawfull purchaser of the same upon his paying or consigning the Sum of One hundred and twenty four thousand One hundred pounds Scots money …" (SRO: SIG1/70/2, quoted by Peskett, 1997, p 8) George Morrison of “Little Chalfield” or not? According to all the accumulated historical references in this paper, the Morrison of Prestongrange lineage finally ends with George Morrison of “Little Chalfield, Wiltshire”. The sobriquet “Little Chalfield” appears somewhat odd with what little we know of George. According to Bedwell (1920) the information about “Little Chalfield" and his reputed death in Kent in 1788 was supplied by other contributors to the Scottish History Review of (1919, Vol 17 p 103). There is no official record of a death date and place, neither are there any records to substantiate the sobriquet “Little Chalfield”. The “other contributors” referred to include Professor R K Hannay, George Neilson, Francis Steuart (sic), Hon Robert Boyle, Miss Haldane, David Baird Smith and J Bulloch. George Morrison is described as being elected to the Scottish Middle Templars: “1732-3 9 Jan. George Morison, only son (by his wife Aminta) of William M. of Preston Grange, North Britain. Of Little Chalfield, co. Wilts, and thereafter of Sundridge, Kent. Died 1788” (Bedwell, p 105). George is reported in the Commissariot Record of Edinburgh 1701-1800 as having a will dated 26 August 1791 (Register of Testaments. Third Section-1701-1800, List of Burials excerpted from Register in possession of the Registrar of the Canongate). There are historical records verifying George found in the Birth and Christening records such as Saint Mary-St Marylebone Road, St Marylebone, London, England identifying George born on 15 May and Christened on 17 August 1718, parents William and Araminta (London, England, Baptisms, Marriages and Burials, 1538-1812). Name: Geo Morrison Gender: Male Christening Date: 17 Aug 1718 Christening Place: SAINT MARY-ST MARYLEBONE ROAD,ST MARYLEBONE,LONDON,ENGLAND Father's Name: Wm Morrison Mother's Name: Araminta "England Births and Christenings, 1538-1975," database, FamilySearch (https://familysearch.org/ark:/61903/1:1:J3C3-XBV: accessed 7 February 2016), Araminta in entry for Geo Morrison, 17 Aug 1718; citing SAINT MARY-ST MARYLEBONE ROAD,ST MARYLEBONE,LONDON,ENGLAND, reference; FHL microfilm 580,904, 580,905. An alternative date is also given for the Baptism of George in the Ancestry.com files (FHL Film Number 918606): George, male, Birth Date 15 May 1718, Baptism Date 15 June 1718, Baptism Place Saint Anne Soho, Westminster, London, Household Members George Morison, Aremintha, William Morison. George Morrison is mentioned in the Commissariot of Edinburgh (Grant, 1899) as follows: “Morrison, George, sometime of the Middle Temple, London, son of William M., sometime of Prestongrange 26 Aug. 1791”. This therefore suggests William was married to Araminta around 1717 before he married Henrietta Dallas in 1730. The Dallas history states that William and Henrietta “had no issue”. The Scottish Middle Templars were a recognised society of eminent Legal scholars given status by King James: “In 1608 King James granted a patent, dated August I3th, to the Inner and Middle Temples, which is the only formal document concerning the relations between the Crown and the Inns. In it they are said to have been 'for a long time dedicated to the use of the students and professors of the law, to which, as to the best seminaries of learning and education, very many young men, eminent for rank of family and their endowments of mind and body, have daily resorted from all parts of this realm, and from which many men in our own times, as well as in the times of our progenitors, have by reason of their very great merits been advanced to discharge the public and arduous functions as well of the State as of Justice, in which they have exhibited great examples of prudence and integrity, to the no small honour of the said profession and adornment of this realm and good of the whole Commonwealth”. (Bedwell, p101) The will of George Morrison is as follows: 1791 Morison, George (reference CC8/8/128 Edinburgh Commissary Court) 26 Aug 1791 Test. Dative Geo Morison Esq.

Summary of the Inventary Master Andrew Balfour of the Cautioner James Horn Writer to the Signet - dated twenty sixth day of August seventeen hundred and ninety one years. Who were the George Morrisons of Prestongrange? Within the families associated with Prestongrange and Dairsie the name George Morrison can be found, but there also appear to be many other references that associate the name with Prestongrange without identifying what the connection is. These George Morrisons cannot be readily identified as belonging to any particular family. For example, there are two historical documentary references to a “Sir George Morrison of Prestongrange", one in 1654 and one in 1667. Keep in mind Sir George Morrison of Dairsie gained the “Dairsie” title after he bought the property in 1646 which he later sold in 1692 to pay off some of his debt. Firstly, there is a reference in “An Ordinance of Pardon and Grace to the People of Scotland [12 April 1654]” in which Sir George Morrison of Prestongrange [as distinct from Dairsie] has to pay Two Thousand Pounds to the Deputy Treasurer in Leith. There is a further reference to George Morrison of Prestongrange in the Parliamentary Register of Edinburgh on 27 April 1689 in the Act for Raising Four Months’ Supply. It had become fashionable in Scotland at this time to “style” oneself according to the region where you held property. However, the historical documents didn’t always get this correct and family names could become ascribed to property no matter who in reality held it. This is the case with Sir George Morrison, correctly styled “Dairsie” rather than “Prestongrange”. It is also curious to note Sir John Morrison “of Dairsie” died in 1625, 21 years before Sir George bought Dairsie in 1646. Authors who have styled him Sir John “of Dairsie” are inaccurate. References to “George” can be found in the Scottish records: 1. An Ordinance of Pardon and Grace to the People of Scotland. [12 April 1654] His Highness the Lord Protector of the Commonwealth of England, Scotland and Ireland, and the Dominions thereunto belonging, being desirous that the Mercies which it hath pleased God to give to this Nation, by the Successes of their Forces in the late War in Scotland, should be improved for the good and advantage of both Nations, and the People of Scotland made equal sharers with those of England in the present Settlement of Peace, Liberty and Property, with all other Priviledges of a Free People, Doth Ordain and Declare, and be it Ordained and Declarced by his Highness the Lord Protector, with the Consent of his Council, That all persons of the Scotish Nation, of what degree or quality soever they or any of them are (except the persons hereafter in this Ordinance particularly excepted) shall be, and are hereby, and from and after the first day of May in the year, One thousand six hundred fifty four, freed, acquitted and discharged from all Forfeitures, Pains, Penalties, Mulcts, corporal or pecuniary, Restraints, Imprisonment or Imprisonments, Punishment or Punishments whatsoever (other then is hereafter in this Ordinance expressed) for any matter or thing by them or any of them, committed or done by Sea or Land, in relation to the late War, or any preceeding Wars between the two Nations; And that for the matters aforesaid, there shall be from and after the said First day of May aforesaid, no Sequestration, Confiscation, Fine, Penalty, Forfeiture or Punishment, imposed or continued upon them or any of them, (otherwise then as is hereafter in this Ordinance expressed) but the same shall be put in perpetual Oblivion………….sterling. Sir Patrick Cockborne of Clarkington, two thousand pounds sterling. Sir George Morison of Preston-Grange, two thousand pounds sterling.

All and every which sum and sums of money, shall be paid unto George Bilton, Deputy Treasurer at Leith; one moyety thereof, on or by the second day of August, One thousand six hundred fifty four; and the other moyety, on or by the second day of December, then next ensuing; and in default of such payment, all and every the real and personal estate of every person and persons so making default, shall from thenceforth be absolutely confiscate; and the Commissioners for Sequestrations are hereby empowered to seize the same accordingly. Secondly, there is a further reference to George Morrison of Prestongrange (Parliamentary Register of Edinburgh on 27 April 1689) in the Act for Raising Four Months’ Supply from 1667. 2. Act for raising 4 months supply, 1667. William II and Mary II: Translation 1689, 14 March, Edinburgh, Convention Parliamentary Register, Edinburgh 27 April 1689, Legislation Act for raising four months’ supply. Forasmuch as the estates of this kingdom finding it necessary, as well for the security of the Protestant religion as for the common safety and defence of the kingdom against foreign invasions and intestine insurrections, that a competent number of forces be raised and kept up within the same, they have ordained certain troops of horse to be levied from the several shires and, upon the voluntary offers of sundry noblemen and gentlemen, have given warrant for levying some regiments of foot and troops of horse and dragoons, and seeing these forces cannot be kept up and maintained without a considerable charge and expense, and the cess imposed by all former acts being now extinct and not due in time coming; therefore the said estates in this juncture do ordain the sum of £288,000 Scots to be raised and uplifted from the shires and burghs of this kingdom at the term of Whitsunday [May/June] next, according to the proportions imposed upon each shire and burgh by the act of convention of estates in the year 1667. And for the effectual and speedy bringing in of the said imposition the estates do nominate and appoint the persons after-named to be commissioners within the respective shires, for ordering and uplifting of the same, as follows: For the Shire of Haddington……George Morrison of Prestongrange… and later in the same act For the Sheriffdom of Aberdeen…George Morrison of Pitfour… (see the Pitfour Morrisons below) Factual Errors made in some Historical References The reason for noting the last two references to the George Morrison of Prestongrange and George Morrison Pitfour relates to a reference found in The Statistical Account, Additions to Volume XVII, No. VI. Page 61 Parish of Prestonpans by W. Wemyss (p 252), and a more recent work titled Industrial Ownership and Relations at Prestongrange by Alan Burnett. Examining the writings of Wemyss, he makes three errors when he asserts “The estate of Prestongrange, part of the Barony of Preston, was acquired early in the 17th century by Mr George Morrison, whose father had the lands of Troup in Banffshire, and of Pitfour in Aberdeenshire, as his descendants have had the estate of Bognie in Banffshire, which anciently was called Frendraught, and belonged to Chancellor Crichton as far back as James II.’s reign.” (p 252, General Appendix Vol xvii) 1. Firstly, part of the Prestongrange lands were purchased in 1609 by John Morrison, and then later his son Alexander (who became Lord Alexander) who took possession of all of Prestongrange in 1622, and in turn passed the land to his son Alexander who was granted the title “Sir Alexander of Prestongrange” who in turn passed Prestongrange to his son “Sir William Morrison”. 2. Secondly, the only lands that have been found in the records for George Morrison was the acquisition of Dairsie in 1646. To accept Wemyss’s account then it would have to have been Sir John Morrison who had the lands of Troup and Pitfour who then passed them on to his son George who in turn passed them on to his sons George and William. However this conflicts with other references that state that George Morrison of Pitfour inherited the lands from his father George Morrison of Barak (son of William Morrison, burgess of Aberdeen), and that he in turn passed them to his son William. There are no records that support Wemyss’ claims, and it would appear that the Pitfour Morrisons have no direct family relationship to the Prestongrange Morrisons apart from the later relationship by marriage between William Morrison the younger who married Henrietta Dallas (daughter of James Dallas, grandson of George Morrison of Pitfour). 3. Finally, the assertion by Wemyss regarding the purchase of Prestongrange is at odds with earlier writings and official records about the history of Prestongrange. References quoted above show that John Morrison purchased part of Prestongrange from the debt ridden Kerr family in 1609. Later court documents state full ownership was given to Alexander Morrison in 1622 from the “Charter of novodamus in favour of Alexander Morrison, Advocate, is for present purposes the root of title of the Barony of Prestongrange”. There is no mention of any George Morrison owning Prestongrange. The only George Morrison recorded is the son of Sir John Morrison, and his son George. Wemyss could have been confused, thinking Sir John and John Morrison (Baillie of Edinburgh) were the same person, wherein in fact they were father and grandson. However, neither of these John Morrison’s had any land ownership in Troup or Pitfour. Based on the evidence of records that clearly show Sir Alexander gained title to Prestongrange in 1622 brings into question Wemyss’ assertion about George’s father owning Troup in Banffshire and Pitfour in Aberdeenshire, and there being a family connection between Bognie and Prestongrange. The only George Morrison that fits this timeframe is Sir George Morrison of Dairsie who was born about 1617, son of Sir John Morrison. The only record connecting Edinburgh and Aberdeen are records of Henry Morrison and Sir John Morrison being Burgesses both in Edinburgh and Aberdeen. The records of Aberdeen Baillies states Henry Morrison, “at one time bailie of Edinburgh” also becoming a bailie in Aberdeen in 1622 (The Miscellany of the New Spalding Club Vol 1). This was most probably Henry (1572) who married Katherine Dick as the Dick family were also prominent in this region. Henry’s cousin Sir John Morrison is also listed in the Aberdeen Burgh records at the same time, but there is no description given as to why they both were in Aberdeen. To add further information about George Morrison of Pitfour (discussed more fully later), he was the son of William Morrison, a burgess of Aberdeen. This George gained the designation when he bought the Pitfour estate in Aberdeenshire. One of his sons, William, later sold the estate some time early in the 1700s. These dates do not line up with the Dairsie Morrisons suggested above, so this rules them out. There is a Will in the Scottish Records Office for “Morisone George 12/12/1693 Mr, of Pitfour, Advocate”. The Edinburgh Marriage Register 1595-1700 (EMR) records Mr George Morison of Pitfour marrying Margaret Dollas [Dallas] on 29 March 1687. According to records of the Scots Peerage by Sir James Balfour Paul, George Morrison (styled George Morrison of Barak) married Janet Gordon on 8 November 1659 who had previously been married to Sir Robert Innes of Balvenie (Sir James Balfour Paul (1904), volume I, p 87). George of Barak was the father of George of Pitfour. In addition to the inaccurate work of Wemyss discussed above, a more recent work (which appears to be based on Wemyss) also contains numerous factual errors. In his Industrial Ownership and Relations at Prestongrange, Alan Burnett repeats the same errors analysed above. From pp 8-9, Burnett writes incorrectly that: “Around the same time an extensive programme of restructuring of landholding was being undertaken by the crown. This process resulted in the creation of the Barony of Prestongrange in 1609 which seems to have been accomplished by severing the lands of Preston from its ancient bond to Tranent, and then dividing it in two. The new lands may have initially been named East and West Preston, but became known as Preston and Prestongrange respectively. In 1617, the barony of Preston was granted by charter to Sir John Hamilton, and it included the village of Preston and town of Prestonpans, while the new baronetcy of Prestongrange had already been acquired by one Sir George Morison. [This is incorrect, John Morrison originally bought a portion of Prestongrange from Robert Ker and Lord Alexander Morrison later consolidated the entire title as documented above] This first Baron of Prestongrange [At the time there were no “Barons” in the heraldic sense of Prestongrange, and there is nothing to connect Bognie and Prestongrange, this information is simply wrong] came from the north- eastern corner of Scotland. His father held the lands of Troup in Banffshire and Pitfour in Aberdeenshire. Comparatively little is known about George Morison himself, as indeed is the case with the subsequent Morisons of Prestongrange. It seems that they continued, however sporadically, to work the coal at Prestongrange. They also took over Achesons Haven, renaming it Morisons Haven, and continued trading through that port. [There are better and more accurate accounts available through other Prestongrange publications including Aitken (2000), Baker (2000) and Prestoungrange (2009)] George Morison [incorrect, George Morrison had nothing to do with the ownership of Prestongrange, this should read ‘Alexander’] was succeeded by his son, Alexander. The Prestongrange lairds were the patrons of the parish of Prestonpans and records show ministers being presented with office by Sir Alexander in 1638 and 1647. In 1682 the next [no, it was still the same Sir Alexander] Sir Alexander Morison of Prestongrange was fined 900 merks for failing to prevent a riot from occurring when the local schoolmaster took the pulpit under the direction of the diocesan Bishop. The minister, James Buchan, had been deprived of his office for his involvement in the religious controversies of the time. Alexander could count himself lucky – his neighbour Sir William Hamilton of Preston had been fined 1800 merks “for looking on and laughing”. Around 1710 the parish minister, the Rev. Robert Horsburgh, complained that his church was unsafe because of the extent of the coal “wastes” beneath. For some months his congregation was obliged to meet in a barn at Preston. Repairs were eventually executed after long litigation. Meanwhile, in 1711, Sir James Morison [incorrect, it was Sir William Morrison] of Prestongrange, who had recently been involved in a dispute over the rights to the Prestongrange Coal Road access, married his daughter [Jean Morrison] to John 5th Viscount Arbuthnott, later a Jacobite who supported Prince Charles in the ’45 Rising. The estate passed out of the hands of the Morison dynasty and, in 1746, was purchased by William Grant, the Lord Advocate of Scotland, at a judicial sale. William was one of three sons and five daughters of Sir Francis Grant of Cullen, a judge and political writer” (Burnett, pp 8-9). In the History of the County of Fife (1840, p 262) Leighton incorrectly states that “ Sir George Morrison married Agnes, daughter of Robert 6th lord Boyd; and his successor Sir John Morrison married Nicholas daughter of Sir George Bruce of Carnock ancestor of the Earls of Elgin”. Sir George was the son of Sir John who died in 1625, not as the other way around as Leighton asserts. Sir George had a son named John who was buried in the Morrison Tomb at Greyfriars in 1688. There is no record to indicate John had a title like his father and grandfather.

Daughter of John Morrison and Katherine Preston. Morrison, Thomas, doctor of medicine, indweller in Edinburgh 12 July 1603 Cautionary Note It is cautioned that the commonality of given names such as George and Alexander around this time do not in any way mean that the George Morrison and Alexander Morrison references in the historical documents of Edinburgh were related. For example, in the Burgess records for Edinburgh of 1557-58 there is a reference to an Alexander Morrison. There is no record that links him to John Morrison who was the father of Lord Alexander. These records, and Burgess records in Aberdeen, cite the name Morrison on many occasions. For example in Edinburgh there was a Donald Morrison in 1573 who was a Burgess of Cannongate, and a Luke Morrison who had control of the Cowgate Port at the Pleasance. In Aberdeen, for example, there are numerous references to Morrisons in both the Burgh and Sheriff records. For example, taken from “Selections From of the Kirk Session, Presbytery, and Synod of Aberdeen” records of 26 May 1651 state “George Morisone, younger, burgess of Aberdene, compeirand yesterday, being the Lordis day, befoir the pulpit in the old church, in sackcloth, contest his leud and wicked cariddge in railing against the covenant and ministers of Aberdene, his ordinary drunkennes, and cursing and blaspheming the name of God; craves the Lord humble pardon for the said guiltiness and promised, by the grace of God, newer to fall in lye sines in time cuming” (Selections From of the Kirk Session, Presbytery, and Synod of Aberdeen. Printed for The Spalding Club. M DCCC XL VI.W. Bennett, Printer, Aberdeen). It is possible this is the young George Morrison of Barak, but there is no evidence other than coincidence. It is interesting to compare his plight with his namesake in Dairsie who was also hauled over the coals by the kirk accused a year earlier in 1650 ‘that he had subscryved the Protestation against the Supplication of the Kirk; he professing his sorrow for the same…he is appointed to mak public declaration of his repentance the nixt Lord’s day in the kirk of Darsy.’ (see notes above on the History of Dairsie). Sixty-five years later Theodore Morrison of Bognie and his mother also found themselves being in dispute with the church. Finally, apart from church associated references to the name Morrison in the Moray and Ross regions previously mentioned, the Wedderburn History mentions a “Patrick Morrison, M.A., priest of Aberdeen diocese, being notary” as a witness to a Sasine dated 30th December 1522 in favour of David Home of Wedderburn. Other references to Morrisons associated with the church can be found in the history of Holyrood Abbey where there is a “Morrisons Gate” dating back to the early 1500s (Gallagher, 1998, p. 1090). Chapter 7 2. Aberdeen Morrisons: Bognie and Pitfour The lands around Aberdeen and Banff appear to have been settled by Morrison families some time around the 1400s. The most logical account for these families would be that they had continued moving north from the south eastern border regions either by land or by sea where Morrison families had earlier settled in the Midlothians and Fife. It has been established from the Cistercian rent records that there were Morrisons in the Cupar-Angus region in the 1440s. In the records of the “Register of Burgesses of the Burgh of Aberdeen, 1399-1631” (p 6) we find the following entry: “1440 Sept. 18. Morison, Angus, of Kynkardyn (at request of laird of Drum) Council Register IV., 209.” (Kincardine is in Fife on the banks of the Forth River near Clackmannon). Further on in 1464 there is a reference to Gilbert Moryson (p 19), 1470 John Moryson of Dunblane (p 22), 1472 John Morison, baker (p 23), 1483-4 Andrew Murison (p 31), 1490-1, Baxter, Andrew, in Slains (at request of Sir William Muiresone), Sir William Mureson (sevices dispensed with at “lott scott, wak and ward”) (p 35), 1514-5 William Moresone (servant to the Provost) (p 45), 1592 Andro Moresone, eldest son of umquil John M.) (p 83), 1594 Hay, Thomas (caut. George Moresone) (p 84), 1596 John Moresone (dyer) (p 89), 1602 Thomas Muresoun (ex gratis, caut. William Grey, bailie) (p 96), 1612 John Morriesoune (caut. George M.) (p110), 1616 George Moresoune, eldest son of George M. (p 116), 1617 Alexander Moresone (servant to George, Marquis of Huntly, ex gratis at his request (p119), 1619 William and Walter Moreson, sons of late George M. (It is to be remember it that this saudis Willeame and Walter Moresonis, soneis to the said umqul George Moreson, and said Willeame Leysk, his syruiturre, were admitted burgesses of gild gratis for the guide service down to the town be Barbara Fergussoun, relict of the said umquil George during the tyme of my Lord Duke of Lennox his g. being with this burt, and for the len of her hous and plinesching to that effect. -C.R. XLIX, 336.) (p 122). From the above reference to William and Walter, sons of the late George Morrison, we find they are mentioned in detail in the “Introduction to Register of Burgesses, Munro, 1890 p xxxvi” in Aberdeen where we find this quotation: “A large number of noblemen and others, including the Duke of Lennox, paid a visit to the burgh in 1619, and the expenses of their entertainment must have been heavy. The Council on this occasion were fortunate in getting part of their debt cancelled without cost to themselves*, for among those admitted on the 14th August that year are the names of William and Walter Moreson, who, as a memorandum in the register informs us, were admitted gratis for the good service done to the town be [sic] Barbara Ferguson, relict of umquile George Moreson, during the time of my lord Duke of Lennox, his grace being within this burgh, and for the “len” of her house and plemishing to that effect” (*The account paid by the Treasurer amounted to the large sum of £425 12s Scots) (p xxxvi). Further on in the Burgess records we find a reference to Henry Moresone in 1622 being “at one time bailie of the burgh of Edinburght (ex gratia)” (p 130). This would be Henry Morrison who was first married to Christian Dick, who at the time of 1622 would have been married a second time to Jonet Spottiswood since their first child was born in 1620. In 1624 another Edinburgh connection is revealed when “Moresone, Sir John, of Sauchtounhall (ex gratia)” and his servant “Patrick Dulsone” are mentioned (p 137). This would be Isaac Morrison’s son who is often incorrectly referred to as Sir John Morrison of Dairsie who was married to Nicola Bruce and died in 1625. The “Sauchtounhall” title is more correct since Sir John was never involved with Dairsie, it was his son Sir George who bought the estate in 1646 from the Spottiswood’s. Given the references to George Morrison referred to above (married to Barbara Ferguson), the father of William and Walter, establishes the fact that he was the grandfather of George Morrison of Pitfour. The Records of Aboyne (Gordon, 1894, p 276) state that George Morrison, a burgess of Aberdeen and his wife Barbara Ferguson “had Sasine on the lands of Tillicorthie, Tillery, and others in 1602, and George Morrison the younger had Sasine on the lands of Colliston, 12th August 1618 (Aberdeen Sasines, vol. i). George Morrison, burgess of Aberdeen, and his spouse had Sasine on the half lands of Dyce, the Kirktown thereof, and the half lands of Pitmedden, on 3rd April 1627 (Ibid)”. There does not appear to be any evidence of a family connection between the Bognie and Pitfour Morrison families. Of the two, the Bognie family continues to maintain an unbroken line to the title Baron of Bognie. The Morrisons of Bognie The following notes draw heavily on the work of William Temple (1894) in his work “The Thanage of Fermartyn”. There is a considerable history of early Scotland in Aberdeenshire, including the lands of Bognie. It is probable that the English destroyed many of the records dating back to the period before 1300. However, one of the names that the Morrisons became associated with is Frendraught. Janet Dunbar, daughter of James Dunbar, Earl of Moray, married Sir James Crichton, Lord Chamberlain of Scotland. He became Lord Crichton, Lord Chancellor of Scotland, and brought into that family the lands of Frendraught: He [Crichton] received from King James VI the honour of a knighthood, and had the family estates made over to him in his life-time, receiving charters of the lands and baronies of Frendraught, Conveth, Auchingoul, Bognie, etc., to him and his heirs male, 10 August, 1599, where he is styled eldest son of James Crichton of Frendraught (Temple, 1894, p 144). There are many famous families which the Bognie Morrisons married into, including the Crichton’s, the Duffs and the Gordons. The name Frendraught, or Forgue/Forge as it is also known, became part of a title inherited by the Morrisons. History of the line of the Knightly House of Ferendrach De Ferendrach records that the earliest notice of Frendraught is about 1202, when Michael de Ferendrach is a witness to a charter given by William the Lion. This Michael de Ferendrach also witnesses a charter of Alexander II, 1226. In 1257, Pope Alexander IV confirmed to the Abbot and Convent of Arbroath a grant made by William de Ferendrach of the fruits of the benefice of the Church de Ferendrach. Besides the lands of Ferendrach, from which the family derived their surname, they had other lands in Perthshire. There is a charter of date 1282, confirming the lands of Cuparmacultin, Fordui, and others, by the Abbot of Dunfermline, to Malcolm de Ferendrach, in such wise as they were held by John de Ferendrach. In 1286, in a charter given by Simon, Thane of Aberchirder, Malcolm de Ferendrach and John de Ferendrach are mentioned as witnesses. History also records many other Norman names in the area such as John de Gairdyn in the 1300s. He could well have been an early relative of Alexander Garden who was a Professor of Philosophy in King's College, Aberdeen and appointed minister of Frendraught in 1645. His sister Elizabeth Garden married Alexander Morrison, the 1st Baron of Bognie. The Morrisons from Bognie in Aberdeenshire have an impressive continuous lineage: 1st Baron Alexander Morrison of Bognie married Elizabeth Gordon. According to Temple (1894, p 154) “Alexander Morrison of Bognie acquired the lands of Bognie from Sir James Crichton and his wife, Elizabeth Gorden, in 1635. The charter is "Jacobus Crichton de Frendraught consensu et assensu mete conjugis Elizabethan Gordon, Alexandre Moresone in Bognie et Elizabethan Gairden ejus spouse diutius viventi totas et integras villas E. and W. Bognie, cum domibus, etc." From the above charter, we find that his wife's name was Elizabeth Gairden, a sister of Rev. Alexander Gairden, minister of Forgue. He married secondly, Katharine Gordon, and mention of her is made in the session records of Forgue. Alexander Morrison signed the Solemn League and Covenant, and also signed the Duke of Hamilton's bond in defence of King Charles 1. This latter act incurred the extreme displeasure of the Presbytery of Turriff, and he was summoned before them. "1650, January 31. Comperit Alexander Morison of Bognie, a man whose affection to the Covenant and cause of God was notour to all the brethren, yet through uncircum- spection had subscribed the band for carrying out the unlawful engagement, and being accused of the same, answered that he conceived the band did impart nothing prejudicial to the Covenant. He submitted to the judgment of the Presbytery, and after a time was received according to the common order." He had the following family : 1.George Morrison (2nd of Bognie) 2. Alexander Morrison Alexander Morrison of Pennyburn is mentioned in a charter in the possession of the laird of Bognie, also in the proceedings regarding the murder of Alexander Gregory by Francis Crichton (the brother of Viscount Frendraught) in 1663, the son of the Rev John Gregory mentioned below. Alexander had attempted to protect Alexander Gregory. 2nd Baron George Morrison (1620-1699) married Christian Urquhart, Viscountess Frendnaught (second daughter of Alexander Urquhart of Dunlugat, afterwards of Cromarty, widow of Lord Rutherford, who, after the Viscount's death, married George Morison of Bognie (Temple, 1894, p 152) David Gregory was heir to his brother Alexander Gregory (who had been murderd by Francis Crichton in 1663), “on 21st of July, 1677, he disponed the wadset of a large portion of the estates, including all and haill the Mains of Frendraught, the tower and fortalice of Frendraught, etc., to George Morison of Bognie, who disponed them in life-rent, November 5, 1678, in favour of Christian Urquhart, widow of James, second Viscount Frendraught, for her life-time” (Temple, 1894, p 152). George Morrison of Bognie was a witness in the Crichton murder trial recorded in the court records of Edinburgh 4 July 1664 (Scott-Moncrieff (ed), 1905, pp 100-105) Historical Note: ”The first Presbyterian minister that we read of at Forgue after the Revolution was the Rev. John Maitland. This reverend gentleman and his brother, James, minister of Inverkeithney, were both deposed by the General Assembly, in a summary manner, on the 9 May, 1715, because they espoused the cause of the Pretender, refusing to observe the Thanksgiving for the accession of George I on the 20 January, 1715. In both parishes, the greater part of the parishioners took part with the ministers, and resented so deeply their deposition, that the clergymen appointed to announce it, were not only prevented entering the churches, but even the churchyards of the parishes. The Viscountess Frendraught and her son, Theodore Morison of Bognie, also espoused the cause of the deposed ministers. The Viscountess possessing herself of the keys of both churches, locked the doors, and prevented the Presbytery of Turriff, who zealously exerted themselves, from supplying the vacancies,' and her ladyship only gave up the keys after a threatened civil action. After a time the Presbytery resolved to institute ministers to the vacant charges; and they began with Forgue first, selecting the Rev. Alexander Forbes as minister” (Temple, 1894, p 181). George Morrison registered the Bognie Arms of three moors’ heads in 1673. Susanna Morrison 1680-1789 (married John Forbes 3rd of Boyndlie) Theodore Morrison 1685-1766 3rd Baron Theodore Morrison (1685-1743) married Katharine Maitland (daughter of Sir Charles Maitland of Pittrichie). “He lived without an enemy, and died without a groan” (Tayler, 1914, p 391) Alexander Morrison 1724-1801 (4th of Bognie) George Morrison of Haddo (married Jean Abercromby, daughter of General James Abercromby of Glassaugh and Mary Duff of Dipple.

He acquired the lands of Mountblairy in 1812. 6th Baron John Morrison (1757-1835) (of Auchintoul and Bognie, younger brother of Theodore) married Jane Fraser (daughter of Alexander Fraser, 8th of Strichen). See Note below which outlines his Parliamentary career and rather scandalous assertions that he fathered numerous bastard children. 1. Alexander Morrison (became 7th of Bognie) 7th Baron Alexander Morrison of Bognie and Mountblairy (1802-1874) married Jessie Eliza Duff (daughter of Garden Duff, 8th of Hatton and Louisa Dunbar). Died without issue. 8th Baron Alexander Morrison (1810-1879) married Mary Catherine Young (daughter of Colonel Keith Young). Known as Alexander Morrison of Bognie and Mountblairy. This family was instrumental in building the new church of St Margaret’s in 1856. He was the son of James Morrison and cousin of Alexander. “In the church on the north side there are four marble tablets to the memory of the Bognie family. The first two were removed from the mausoleum in the churchyard of Forgue by desire of Alexander Morison of Bognie, having been replaced there by facsimiles in granite. On the first tablet there is the inscription: Within this sepulchre, erected by his desire, lies the body of George Morison of Bognie, who died in the year 1699. Here also are interred Theodore Morison of Bognie, only son to the said George Morison, who died in June, 1766, aged 81 years. Also Katharine Maitland, daughter of Sir Charles Maitland of Pitrichie, and spouse of the said Theodore Morison, who died in 1743, aged 48 years. Here also lie the remains of Alexander Morison of Bognie, son to the said Theodore Morison, who died 16 September, 1801, in the 78th year of his age. Also Katharine Duff, daughter of John Duff of Cowbin, and spouse of the said Alexander Morison, who died April 1803, aged 71." (Temple, 1894, p 187). He died without issue. 9th Baron John Morrison (1812-1886) married Mary Jane Wetherell (daughter of Thomas Wetherell). He was the second son of James Morrison. 1.

Alexander Gordon Morrison (became 12th of Bognie) ii. Donald Fraser Morrison 11th Baron Alexander Edward Forbes Morrison (1874-1932) married Clementina Graham Stuart (daughter of Alexander Stuart of Inchbreck). He died without issue. There was a gap in the father-son line at this point whereby a search of ancestors then uncovered the family of Duncan Maitland Morrison who had migrated to Canada. 12th Baron Alexander Gordon Morrison (1920-2013) and 12th Laird of Frendraught and Mountblairy, married Yvonne Isabelle Angus (daughter of Ian McLean Angus). Diane Yvonne Morrison Cheryl Jeanne Morrison Alexander Morrison (became 13th of Bognie) 13th Baron Alexander Morrison (1952- ) married Bona McKenzie Murray. Note: Biography of John Morrison, 9th of Bognie (from J. R. Fisher (2009)) “Morison was descended from a family which had been established in north-west Aberdeenshire since at least the mid-seventeenth century … John Morison’s life before he became a parliamentary candidate remains largely obscure, but he is known to have been sometime a merchant at Riga, on the Baltic, in partnership with his brother James and one Drachenham. It was there that his ‘only legitimate son’ Alexander (who entered Trinity College, Cambridge in 1820 and Lincoln’s Inn in 1822) was born in about 1802. By Michaelmas 1811 he was on the freeholders’ roll of Banffshire as the proprietor (by purchase) of the estate of Auchintoul. In April 1825 he declared his intention of standing for the county at the next election, and he duly did so when Parliament was dissolved in June 1826, backed by the Tories Colonel Francis Grant* and the 4th duke of Gordon. He made no reported political pronouncements and was defeated by the sitting Member Lord Fife, but was seated on his petition claiming a majority of legal votes in April 1827. Morison was almost entirely inconspicuous in the 1826 Parliament. He voted with the Wellington ministry against inquiry into chancery delays, 24 Apr., and presented a constituency petition for the continuance of the herring bounties, 12 May 1828. As expected, he divided for the government’s concession of Catholic emancipation, 30 Mar. 1829, though he was reported to have stated in the House earlier that day that he would ‘vote against’ it. He was returned unopposed at the 1830 general election, after which ministers listed him as one of their ‘friends’. It was almost certainly James Morrison rather than he who voted in Parnell’s minority of 39 for reduction of the duty on wheat imported to the West Indies, 12 Nov. He was absent from the division on the civil list three days later which brought down the government. He also absented himself from the divisions on the second reading of the Grey ministry’s English reform bill, 22 Mar., and Gascoyne’s wrecking amendment, 19 Apr. 1831. According to his constituent John Macpherson Grant, the son of George Macpherson Grant* of Ballindalloch, on the first occasion he was actually in the House ... but went home ... on the pretence of age and indifferent health ... The real cause ... I suspect to be a fear of offending by his vote whichever way it was given. Colonel Grant had been attacking him warmly for some time, which terrified him from voting for the bill, and the knowledge that ... many of his constituents were favourable to it had made him afraid of voting against it. I had a note from him next morning expressing a wish to see me ... He seemed to be all in a fidget ... and ready to speak on any subject but the bill. I ... let him know what I thought of the measure and of his own shilly shally conduct and sounded the alarm of an early dissolution in his ears. George Ferguson† of Pitfour, who had the support of Colonel Grant and the 5th duke of Gordon, declared his candidature for the next election in the second week of April, but Morison’s wife (whose identity is unknown) told him that her husband had ‘no intention of giving up’; he publicly confirmed this a week later. John Macpherson Grant, a reformer, speculated that if Morison, ‘a perfect cipher’ in Parliament, lost Colonel Grant’s backing, he might start his ‘indolent and careless’ son Alexander, who had moved the resolutions approving reform at the recent county meeting (Morison presented its petition on 20 Apr.). When Parliament was dissolved a few days later Morison stood his ground and claimed the support of local reformers. On 4 May he wrote to The Times to contradict its designation of him as being ‘against’ reform: ‘I never voted against the reform bill, but, on the contrary, I am decidedly in favour of it’. In a riposte the following day Ferguson, who also claimed to be ‘a reformer’, commented that this would come as a surprise to Morison’s constituents, whose interests had gone effectively unrepresented in the last Parliament. Morison secured the support of John Macpherson Grant and other reformers, declared under questioning at the election meeting that he was ‘a favourer of the bill’ and approved of the disfranchisement of ‘rotten boroughs’, the enfranchisement of large towns and an extension of the franchise, but said he disliked the proposed £10 Scottish county voting qualification. He defeated Ferguson by seven votes in a poll of 33. Morison was barely more active than previously in the 1831 Parliament. He paired for the second reading of the reintroduced English reform bill, 6 July, for its details in at least three divisions and for its passage, 21 Sept. He was present to vote against use of the 1831 census to determine the disfranchisement schedules, 19 July, and for clause 15, giving urban freeholders a county vote, 17 Aug. 1831. His next known votes were not until those for the enfranchisement of Tower Hamlets, 28 Feb., and Gateshead, 5 Mar., and the third reading of the revised English reform bill, 22 Mar. 1832. He was in the minorities for a reduction in the West Indian sugar duties, 7 Mar., and against the malt drawback bill, 2 Apr. He voted for the address calling on the king to appoint only ministers who would carry reform unimpaired, 10 May. He divided against increasing the Scottish county representation, 1 June, and presented a Banff reform petition, 4 June. He was in the government majorities on the Russian-Dutch loan, 12, 20 July 1832. By then he was in severe financial trouble, with ‘great’ debts, which forced him to sell his Banffshire property. He retired from Parliament at the 1832 dissolution. His much altered will of 25 July 1830 reveals a notably unconventional and disordered private life. He left all his real and personal estate, except his ‘small remaining property in Russia’, to Alexander, but made provision for a battery of his bastards produced by various women: five by Sarah Cole of Southampton Row, Marylebone, whom he was thinking of ‘perhaps legitimating by acknowledging a marriage’ with her; a ‘natural son Alexander’, currently thought to be at Riga; two children with Menzies Munro; two with Matilda Palmer of Fordyce, and one with Mary White of Brompton, Middlesex. His personalty was sworn under £4,000 in the province of Canterbury, 23 July 1835, but a marginal note of 1846 on the death duty register entry indicates that liabilities amounted to £18,254. Morison nominally succeeded his brother Theodore to the entailed Aberdeenshire estates in October 1834, but he died four months later and it was his legitimate son Alexander who was served heir of line to Bognie on 4 Dec. 1835”. D.R. Fisher, (ed). (2009). Published in The History of Parliament: the House of Commons 1820-1832. (Online: http://www.historyofparliamentonline.org/volume/1820-1832/member/morison-john-1757-1835) From The Book of the Duffs (Taylor, 1914, Vol 2) an excellent overview of the interconnectedness between the Abercromby-Duff-Morrison families is set out: ABERCROMBIES and MORRISONS The family of Abercromby also has been so much connected with the Duffs for three centuries that a brief table showing the intermarriages seems almost necessary. The family, which is one of the oldest in Scotland, had its origin, like the Duffs, in Fifeshire, but came north at a later period. Alexander Abercromby (falconer to Charles i.), who owned the estate of Birkenbog, married Elizabeth Bethune of Balfour. His two elder sons were Alexander and John. (p 562) The Morrisons of Pitfour, Kirkhill and Barak This family came from a line that was well represented in the Burgh records of Aberdeen, beginning with George Morrison and his wife Barbara Ferguson. The last of the name associated with Pitfour was George and his brother William, the son of George Morrison and his first wife Janet Gordon. George Morrison of Pitfour (the elder) died in 1689 and was buried in East Liberton Tomb, Greyfriars cemetery (Greyfriars Cemetery Records). The lands of Pitfour were purchased by George Morrison (of Barak) in 1667 as written in the the records of the time: “…the barony of Pitfour … according to charter under the great seal granted by Charles II. of date 22 February 1667 … in favour of George Morrison of Pitfour”. The estate was sold in 1700 by William Morrison, brother of George: “Morisone - William - of Pitfour, to his Brother George Morisone of Pitfour Adv. - Heir Male of Taillie and Prov. Genl. - dated 31st Jan. 1702” (Decennial Indexes to the Services of Heirs in Scotland 1700 - 1709, Vol 1). These were the sons of George Morrison of Pitfour who died in 1689. More detail of their relationship is as follows: From the “Illustrations of the Topography and Antiquities of the Shires of Aberdeen and Banff, fourth volume, Printed for the Spalding Club, Aberdeen 1862”: June 19 1700. Special service of William Morison as nearest heir of his brother-germain George (afterwards designed Mr George) Morison of Pitfour advocate in …the lands and barony of Toux and Pitfour comprehending … the lands commonly called Toux and Pitfour Mill of Leggat mill lands a strict multures and sequels … Cairneurchies Drumies Braikeshill Bumbmill Tietswall Gachinwives with the manor place of Pitfour the whole houses … and pertinence … lying in the parish of Deer and shire of Aberdeen united … and incorporated into one barony to be called the barony of Pitfour … according to charter under the great seal granted by Charles II. of date 22 February 1667 … in favour of George Morrison of Pitfour father of the said William Morison (therein designed eldest lawful son of the late William Morison burgess of Aberdeen) and Janet Gordon his spouse and the longest liver of either of them in conjunct fee and life rent … and after their death respectively in favour of said George (afterwards designed Mr George) Morison their eldest lawful son brother german [sic] of the said William Morison now of Pitfour in fee and the heirs male of his body and assignees whomsoever whom failing John Morison their second son now dead and the heirs male of his body and assignees whomsoever whom failing said William Morison their third son and the heirs male of his body and assignees whomsoever whom all failing the said George Morison senior his nearest and lawful heirs and assignees whomsoever …Which said lands and barony of Pitfour are held of the King in fee and heritage perpetually for yearly payment of the services formerly used and wont…(pp 47-48). A reference in “A Book of the Parish of Deir: The Lands of the Parish and Their Owners” (Lawson, 1896) verifies the ownership of Pitfour in 1667 by the Morrisons: “These ten heritors of the year 1635 have considerably changed in the course of a generation. We find new names, along with several familiar ones, in the valuation of 1674, which gives what is to this day called the valued rent. The lands of Pitfour had been made a barony by Charles II. on 22nd February, 1667, when they were purchased, apparently from Thomas Bodie and Innes, by George Morrison, son of William Morrison, burgess in Aberdeen. They at that time included Toux, Pitfour, Mill of Leggatt, Cairnourchies, Drinnies" (p 85). The name of George Morrison appears in the dealings of the Gordons and Cluny Castle in Aberdeenshire around 1636: “This seems to have been only a temporary answer for by 1636 the control of the Cluny property had passed out of Sir Alexander's [Gordon] hands. In that year a precept under the Great Seal was given to the Sheriff of Aberdeen to infeft George Morrison in the Mains and Manor place of Cluny as apprised by him from William Coutts of Auchtercoul for a debt of 5,600 merks" (Slade, p 455). There is no direct evidence to determine whether or not this is the same George who married Barbara Ferguson. In 1636 George Morrison of Barrak would have been too young. In the following paragraph there is a reference to a George Morrison the elder in 1602 and a George the younger around the years of 1618 and 1627. From the Aberdeen Burgess Records (Munro, 1890) the Morrisons of Pitfour family lineage would indicate that this line was begun by George Morrison and Barbara Ferguson in Aberdeen (Register of Burgesses, p xxxvi). This is also confirmed in The Records of Aboyne (Huntly, 1894): “We have Precept under the Great Seal, given by King Charles 1., to the Sheriff of Aberdeen to infeft George Morrison, burgess of Aberdeen, in the Mains and Manor place of Cluny, etc, as apprised by him from William Coutts of Auchtercoul for a debt of 5600 marks. George Morrison, the elder, burgess of Aberdeen, and Barbara Ferguson his spouse, has Sasine on the lands of Tillicorthie, Tillery, and others in 1602, and George Morrison the younger had Sasine on the lands of Colliston, 12th August 1618 (Aberdeen Sasines, vol. i). George Morrison, burgess of Aberdeen, and his spouse had Sasine on the half lands of Dyce, the Kirktown thereof, and the half lands of Pitmedden, on 3rd April 1627 (Ibid)” (p 276). William Morrison (son of George and Barbara), a burgess of Aberdeen in 1619, had a son who was originally styled George Morrison of Barak who married Janet Gordon (her second marriage, she was first married to Sir Robert Innes of Balvenie). A contract for the marriage of Janet Gordon and George Morrison was signed on 8 November 1659. (Janet Gordon was the daughter of Sir John Gordon of Haddo and Mary Forbes of Tolquhon. Reference to their marriage is made as follows, and note that George’s style of “Barrack” changes to “Pitfour”. It should be noted at this point that the Morrison’s acquired Pitfour in 1667, some eight years after George married Janet, so at the time of the marriage he would have been correctly styled “of Barak”: Janet Gordon was the daughter of Sir John Gordon of Haddo, 1st Bt. and Mary Forbes. She married Sir Robert Innes of Balvenie, 3rd Bt., son of Sir Walter Innes of Balvenie, 2nd Bt. and Lilias Grant. A contract for the marriage of Janet Gordon and George Morrison of Pitfour was signed on 8 November 1659.      Her married name became Innes. From 8 November 1659, her married name became Morrison. (Paul, 1907, p 87) However the Faculty of Advocates in Scotland (Grant, 1944, p 156) suggests Janet was the daughter of Thomas Gordon of Broadland. Thomas Gordon married Margaret Bodie of Pitfour. The Morrisons bought Pitfour from the Bodies). No further evidence has been discovered to substantiate this version of marriage. George and Janet had five children all recorded in the OPR for Aberdeen: George 1661 (who became George Morrison of Pitfour), John 1662, William 1663, Jean 1666 and Charles 1667. The above quotation from the Spalding Club (1862, pp 47-8) identifies this lineage except for Jean and Charles. From the Faculty of Advocates in Scotland records (p 156) George of Barak later married a second time Margaret Dallas in 1687. Notes: “The expenses incurred occasionally in entertaining distinguished strangers must have been a severe tax on the slender resources of the Common Good funds, and many were the devices resorted to for raising the necessary means to defray the cost of such entertainments. A large number of noblemen and others, including the Duke of Lennox, paid a visit to the burgh in 1619, and the expenses of their entertainment must have been heavy. The Council on this occasion were fortunate in getting part of their debt can- celled without cost to themselves, for among those admitted on the 14th August of that year are the names of William and Walter Moreson, who, as a memorandum in the register informs us, were admitted gratis for the good service done to the town be Barbara Ferguson, relict of umqhile George Moreson, during the time of my lord Duke of Lennox, his grace being within this burgh, and for the "len" of her house and plenishing to that effect”.

(George Morison of Kirkhill and Pitfour (Council Reg., LIII, 347, 361, 398, 428). “The Council thus elected chose George Morison to be provost, as one who was qualified and "weill affected for the weill and peace of this natioun.” Provost Morison was the eldest son of George Morison, burgess, by his wife, Barbara Ferguson, and was admitted a Guild brother on the 13th September, 1616. His younger brothers, William and Walter, were admitted three years later, gratis, in consideration of the good service done to the town by their mother in giving up her house for a lodging to the Duke of Lennox while he was in the town. Provost Morison was married to Jean Buchan, and their daughter Jean was married to William Forbes, a brother of Thomas Forbes, baillie. Besides the lands of Kirkhill and Pitfour, the Provost held others, at least for a short time, for on 30th March, 1655, he had a precept of sasine from "Oliver, Lord Protector of the Commonwealth of England, Scotland, Ireland, and the domineenes thereto belonging," of the town and lands of Gilcomston, over and nether, with the mill and mill lands, together with the lands and town of Ardo and the town and lands of Jackston in the parish of Banchory-Devenick. The Provost, by his last will and testament, dated 1st May, 1658, left a sum of five hundred merks for the poor of the burgh, and a hundred merks to the hospital for decayed brethren of guild. The Provost's death occurred about five months after this date, and his remains were interred within the Church of S. Nicholas on the 24th September, 1658. His wife, who survived him, died on the 26th July, 1664, and two days later was buried beside her husband in the church. On the 12th November, 1662, George Morison of Baroch or Barra was served heir to his uncle, Provost Morison, in the town and lands of Ardo and Jackston, with the salmon fishing on the Dee (Retours and Sheriff Clerk’s Records). A curious case respecting the authority of the Council to enforce the municipal statutes made from time to time for regulating the weight and price of articles sold, took place about this time. The Council had fixed the weight of bread at fifteen ounces, but the baxter trade did not see how "they could mack ane lyff'" by selling their bread at such a weight, so the trade fixed the weight at an ounce to an ounce and a half less, and turned out their bread accordingly. The magistrates at once took up the matter, and the deacon of the craft was summoned and censured, and was to be dismissed on giving his word that the craft would not so offend in time coming. The deacon, however, would neither acknowledge that any fault had been committed, nor would he give any undertaking for the future, and so by a special ordinance of the Council he was sent to prison until he should acknowledge his fault, and the "mistak of his haill traid." No election took place at Michaelmas, 1652, and at the meeting in September, 1653, convened for the election, a letter was submitted from Colonel Lilburne, intimating that the Council of Estates thought fit that all civil officers now in office should continue without any new election. This warrant was obeyed, the office-bearers being continued as before, and this procedure was repeated at the Michaelmas meeting in the following year. At the Michaelmas meeting of 1655 no instructions were to hand, and the election was continued in the usual manner, but on the 3i"d October, some nine days after the election. Provost Morison submitted a " Declaration of his Highness Counsell in Scotland," which had just reached him that day. This Declaration premises that no election had taken place, and proceeds to declare that all prohibitions as to the election of magistrates were now taken off", and the ancient privilege of election restored to those rightfully entitled to use it. After warnings against electing any person who would be dangerous to the Commonwealth, the Declaration provides that in the case of burghs which have not received timely warning as to the present measure, an election shall take place on that day fort- night. This intimation was considered by the Council equivalent to a warrant for a new election, and notwithstanding that they had already made choice of office-bearers for the ensuing year, they ordered a new election to be made on the 10th October. At this second election, Thomas Gray was chosen provost”. Lord Provosts of Aberdeen (Munro, 1897, pp 165-167) None of the above documentation establishes any link to any of the other prominent Morrison families of the time from Prestongrange, Dairsie or Bognie. However, as previously noted above when discussing Sir William Morrison of Prestongrange, in 1687 George Morrison of Pitfour married Margaret Dallas (b 1662), daughter of George Dallas (1634-1701) WS of St Martins and Margaret Abercromby (daughter of James Abercromby of Pittencrieff). George Dallas and Margaret Abercromby who married in 1660 had a grandson named James Dallas (thus a nephew of George Morrison) who had by his second marriage to Barbara Cockburn a daughter named Henrietta Dallas (James’ first marriage was to Elizabeth Riddell). She married William Morrison (his second marriage) in 1730, the son of Sir William Morrison and Janet Rocheid. Thus James Dallas, the nephew of George Morrison of Pitfour, was the father in law of William Morrison (son of Sir William Morrison and Janet Rocheid). This is the closest relationship between the families of Prestongrange and the Aberdeen Morrison families that has so far been identified. Given the generally localised nature of many families in and around Aberdeen it is possible, for example, that Barbara Ferguson (wife of George Morrison) was related to the Ferguson’s who later bought Pitfour from William Morrison in 1700. There is also the possibility of a relationship between families connected to the marriage of George Dallas who was married to Margaret Abercromby (daughter of James Abercromby of Pittencrieff) and the Abercromby family that was associated with the Bognie Morrisons (George Morrison of Haddo married Jean Abercromby, daughter of General James Abercromby of Glassaugh and Mary Duff of Dipple) and to George Morrison of Pitfour who married Margaret Dallas. Additional references to George Morrison of Pitfour include: Will in the Scottish Records Office for “Morisone George 12/12/1693 Mr, of Pitfour, Advocate”. The Edinburgh Marriage Register 1595-1700 (EMR) records Mr George Morison of Pitfour marrying Margaret Dollas [Dallas] on 29 March 1687. According to records of the Scots Peerage by Sir James Balfour Paul, George Morrison (styled George Morrison of Barak) married Janet Gordon on 8 November 1659 who had previously been married to Sir Robert Innes of Balvenie (Sir James Balfour Paul (1904), volume I, p 87). George of Barak was the father of George of Pitfour (the younger). Act for raising 4 months supply, 1667. William II and Mary II: Translation 1689, 14 March, Edinburgh, Convention Parliamentary Register, Edinburgh 27 April 1689, Legislation Act for raising four months’ supply. For the Sheriffdom of Aberdeen…George Morrison of Pitfour… The date of 1667 coincides with the date that George Morrison (of Barak) purchased Pitfour. There is an interesting Morrison connection with the Aberdeen region of Garvock. In the 1588 a Walter Morrison was the minister at Garvock (1588). His son James became Minister in Kirkwall in the Orkneys before moving to Edinburgh. The Commissariot Records for Orkney and Shetland (1611-1684) lists 18 Nov. 1663 “Morisoun, William, merchant, burges of Edinburgh, residenter of Kirkwall” (p 35). This William was the son of the Rev James Morrison who was the Minister at Evie and Rendall in 1621, educated at Aberdeen University (MA, 1616). James fell out with the Church over a number of political issues, and eventually resigned in 1666 for immorality. His son William was a child of his first marriage to Annas Horrie. After his falling out with the church James moved to Edinburgh where he became a burgess, and was followed by his son William. By his second marriage to Margaret Scollay he had two more sons, Harry and Walter. James is listed in the Roll of Edinburgh Burgesses (1406-1700) as follows: Morison, Mr James, B, late minr. in Orkney (minr. of Evie and Rendall, presby. of Kirkwall, adm. prior to 1624, d. 1675), gratis (in M.S. index) 1 July 1668 (Watson, 1929,p 359). The Burgess rolls identify only one William who might have been the son of James in 1657 but this is by no means conclusive. Chapter 8 Other Morrisons who made significant contributions in Burgh Affairs The Morrisons of Prestongrange, Dairsie, Bognie and Pitfour are all well documented for their contributions to the Burgh affairs of Edinburgh and Aberdeen. When scanning through the historical burgh documents of the east coast of Scotland other Morrison families in Aberdeen and Dundee also made significant contributions in addition to the four previously mentioned Morrison families. The following is a brief outline of their genealogy. The Morrisons of Naughton The first record shows that William Morison of Dundee had a son William Morrison, a Bailie in Dundee, who became the owner of Naughton by judicial sale from Robert Hay in 1737: "The old castle of Naughton already alluded to is equally now the "Shadow of a Shade" all that remains of it being a few fragments of the lower parts of the side walls. This place is said to have been built by Robert de Lundon a natural son of King William. Soon after Naughton was acquired by John de Haya the third son of William de Haya the first of the family of Errol. The Hays are mentioned as Lairds of Naughton about King Alexander III's [3rd] reign. In 1494 Sir Patrick Chrichton got the lands in marriage with Janet the daughter and heiress of Sir James de la Hay. From the Chrichtons Mr. Peter Hay a son of the Laird of Megginsh purchased the lands in the beginning of the seventeenth century. In the year 1737 the estate was brought to a judicial sale by the creditors of Robert Hay of Naughton and purchased by William Morrison Esq. the great grandfather of the present proprietor Mrs. Bethune Morison." (The New Statistical Account of Scotland. (1845). Vol IX, (Fife-Kinross), William Blackwood and Sons, Edinburgh, p 587). The family genealogy is as follows: William Morison, thread maker of Dundee, died 1779, married Jean Fleming. William Morrison of Naughton m Elizabeth Gray (Dean of the Guild 1757-8 and 1761-2, Treasurer 1746-7). (William had a brother Alexander, also a merchant in Dundee. This Alexander had two sons who became Dundee Burgesses: Alexander (Jr) and William). James Morison 1738-1816 (Manufacturer and Magistrate of Dundee) married 1759 Isabella Maxwell, only child of the Rev. David Maxwell, of Strathinartine, Forfar, by Isabel his wife, daughter of Alexander Duncan, of Lundie. They had 1 son and 4 daughters: William Maxwell Morison 1761-, Col of Tayside Fencibles, unmarried. 4.i. Isobel 1760-1850 (see 4.i below) 4.ii. Elizabeth 4.iii. Catherine married Henry Stark of Teases 4.iv. Anne (Mrs Skene) of Pilour 4.i. Isobel married Willian (Chalmers) Bethune of Blebo who took the surname of his first wife, then took Morison as his surname after marrying Isobel. Only child: 5. Isabella Maxwell Morison 1795-1818 As Isobel Bethune Morrison of Naughton, Bogley, Drummie, and Nydie outlived her daughter Isabella and husband William she entailed Naughton to her kinsman Captain Adam Alexander Duncan, grandson of Admiral Adam Viscount Duncan, who also assumed the additional surname Morison and Morison arms. He died in 1855 and was survived by his only child Catherine Henrietta Adamina Morison Duncan of Naughton. As Isobel had also inherited the two titles of property of her husband (which he had in turn inherited from his first wife), entailing Bogley (which she entailed to Captain James Walker of Falfield) and secondly Drummie and Nydie in Fife (which she entailed to Major Robert Bethune, younger son of General Bethune of Blebo). The Bogley inheritance of Captain James Walker of Falfield which began the Walker-Morison of Falfield line is as follows: David Walker of Falfield married Jane Chalmers only daughter of Rev. John Chalmers, of Raderny, Fife, minister of Kilconquhar, 1760-91, by Ellen his wife, daughter of Sir Alexander Anstruther and Hon. Jean Leslie, his wife, usually styled Baroness Newark, and had issue, I. Bethune James Walker d 1868, his heir, married Johanna Wright. II. Captain James Walker, of Falfield. III. John Walker, died unmarried in the West Indies. I. Janet Walker, married Andrew Pitcairn of Pratis and Pitcullo, Fife The eldest son, Bethune James Walker, an officer R.N., inherited Falfield from his younger brother Captain James Walker of Falfield, by whom it had been purchased, and on the death of Mrs. Bethune Morison, widow of his mother's brother, William Chalmers, Writer to the Signet, of Raderny, afterwards styled Bethune of Blebo, and finally Bethune-Morison, inherited under an entail executed by her, the Perth property, and assumed the surname and arms of Morison. He married 12 August, 1846, Johanna, daughter of Rev. George Wright, minister of Kingsbarns, and d. 13 March, 1868, leaving issue, two sons and one daughter: I. James Walker-Morison, of Falfield, d. 9 Nov. 1876, aged 23. II. Bethune George Walker-Morison. The Bogley lands later became the property of Bethune George Walker-Morison of Falfield after the death of James, continuing the pattern of adopting the surname to Morrison. III. Anna Jessie, married 4 June, 1872, John P. Wright, Writer to the Signet. Note regarding James Morison of Dundee: James Morison obtained a crown charter of the estates in 1778 and was the builder of the present mansion house at Naughton. He held office as a bailie of Dundee as his father William Morison had been before him. His daughter Isabel married William Bethune of Blebo and took on the estate when her father died in 1816. She died in 1850 in her ninetieth year. It passed to Adam Duncan and on his death to his daughter Miss Morison-Duncan from 1855 onwards. 2. The James Morrison Provosts of Aberdeen Two James Morrison’s became Provosts of Aberdeen as father and son. They were not related to George Morrison of Pitfour who was Provost of Aberdeen from 1652-1654. James Morison of Donside (1665-1748) was admitted as a burgess of the Guild in Aberdeen in 1690. James (Snr) was elected Provost of Aberdeen from 1730-1731. He married Anna Low in 1692 and had six sons and four daughters: Robert John James 1698 (died in infancy) Thomas 1699 Alexander 1701 James 1708-1786 Anna 1696 Jannet 1703 Christian 1705 and Catherine 1705 James Morison (1708-1786) married Isobell Dyce (1717-1781), the eldest daughter of of James Dyce of Disablair, merchant in Aberdeen. James (Jnr) was elected Provost 1744-45 and 1752-1753.James and Isobell had five sons and eleven daughters. Three of the sons died young: James, 1741 William Augustus 1746 and Alexander. The other two were: Thomas (a distinguished surgeon) and George (Rev Dr George Morison who entered the ministry and died in 1845, see detailed note below). The 11 daughters were: Helen Agnes 1736 Amelia Jean 1744 Janet 1747 Anne 1738 Isobel 1739 Mary 1742 Katherine 1750 Sophia Rachel Notes concerning James Morison (Jnr) and his family 1. Watt (1900) writes that in the latter part of the sixteenth century onwards there was a prosperous trade between Aberdeen and the Baltic ports, particularly Danzig, where Scottish merchants developed close ties with their Polish counterparts. One such example involved “Robert Low, merchant and postmaster of Danzig, was brother-in-law of the first provost, James Morison of Aberdeen, and uncle of the provost who withstood the Jacobites at the Market Cross in 1745” (p 313). James’ father had married Anna Low, and Robert Low was the brother of Anna’s father. 2. With regard to the reference to the Jacobites and the Market Cross in 1745 above, James was the subject of a famous incident during the Pretender’s push to establish himself as the rightful heir to the Crown. Watt (1900) wrote: And while there was a prevailing indisposition among the county families of the north-east to follow the lead of the Murrays and Drummonds, who were at the head of the rebellion, the attitude of the general body of the people was that of decided aversion to the appeal to arms. Cope had left the town ten days when John Hamilton, the Duke of Gordon's chamberlain, arrived in Aberdeen (September 25) with a company of twenty-five horse and seventy foot to proclaim the Pretender. Some of the more ardent Jacobites among the citizens at once joined him, and the keys of the Market Cross having been obtained, the provost, James Morison, younger, of Elswick, was sent for. The provost could not be found until a peremptory order was announced that unless he presented himself at once his house would be burned. He was then marched as a prisoner to the Town House, where some of the magistrates and council were already in compulsory attendance. The Jacobites ascended the cross, taking with them the provost and his colleagues, and thus appeared before the populace with the ostensible acquiescence and support of the civic authorities while the Pretender was proclaimed and the sheriff-substitute read his manifestoes (pp 298-299). A Note Regarding Rev Dr George Morison, son of James (Jnr) Morison, from William Paul (1881): Dr. GEORGE MORISON, my predecessor in this parish, was son of James Morison, who was Provost of Aberdeen at the time of the Rebellion of I745, and grandson of Mr. George Morison [correction, this should be James Morison (Snr)], who in his time had also been Provost of Aberdeen. The following is an extract from the records of the Town Council regarding his father and grandfather: Mr. George [James] Morison, Senior, was Provost during the years one thousand seven hundred and thirty and one thousand seven hundred and thirty-one. He was admitted into the Council, in one thousand seven hundred and thirteen, when he was elected Baillie, and continued in that capacity, with the exception of one or two years, until elected Provost. James Morison, his son, was Provost in the years 1744 and 1745. When the rebels took possession of the town, Provost Morison was hunted out of his house by the insurgents, marched along the streets amidst a guard of bayonets and drawn swords, and forced to mount the top of the Market Cross, where he was ordered to drink wine to the Pretender’s health. The Provost, ever staunch to the House of Brunswick, refusing to do so, had the wine poured down his throat. The account of this matter given by the Provost himself, in a letter sent by him to President Forbes of Culloden, which is found in the Culloden papers, is somewhat different, and is as follows “I am just now at some distance from Aberdeen and from my family, not thinking myself safe to be in the way of those who had used me in so un reasonable odd a manner, as was my fate on the twenty-fifth past Sept. when, being seized upon by an armed party of Highlandmen, I was violently forced down to the Cross, and there, with some broad swords over my head, was obliged to stand till their proclamation was read and, because I refused to drink a health they proposed, I had a glass of wine spilt down my breast, which was, I acknowledge, making me suffer in a way, next taking my life, that none could have affected me more”. In reply, the Lord President says “The useless insolent usage you met with at your Cross, and your resolute behaviour, I had formerly heard, and sufficiently approved of nor need you doubt it shall be properly represented in due time”. The Provost seems to have had the same determination in ruling his family as in resisting the enemies of his country. He used to teach them the Shorter Catechism on the Sunday evenings, and his son George, who was at the time too young to take part in the exercise, used to tell that, “while the teaching was being proceeded with, apples were being coddled before the fire as part of the Sunday evening’s meal, and that, when my Father was scolding, and sometimes laying on hands on the others, I amused myself watching the coddling of the apples”. Dr. Morison was originally minister of Oyne, in the Presbytery of Garioch, where he was settled in the year I782 , and was translated in 1785 to the parish of Banchory-Devenick, in the Presbytery of Aberdeen, situated partly in the county of Kincardine, and partly in that of Aberdeen, the parish being intersected by the river Dee. He was a man of bland and courteous manners, and of a large and benevolent heart. He was, moreover, possessed of a sound understanding, and good business habits, and was most attentive to all the duties of his office, and much attached to his people. During the latter period of his ministry he inherited a good fortune, which enabled him to do what few of his profession could, and what fewer probably would do if they had the means. He erected a school, with a schoolmaster’s house attached to it, entirely with his own means, at Portlethen, a remote district in his own parish, containing nearly 1800 souls. He erected and partially endowed two other schools to supply educational wants in the northern districts of the parishes of Fetteresso and Fintray, where his lands of Elsick and Disblair were situated. To teachers and scholars in these schools a great amount of good was done by their beneficent founder; but all the good thus effected was small compared with the benefit conferred upon his parishioners by the introduction of vaccination into the parish. This he was enabled to effect through the advice and directions of his brother, then a physician in London, at a time when it was scarcely known elsewhere. There were at first great prejudices in the parish against it. Some thought it was a sinful attempt to thwart an appointment of God’ s providence sent in the way of chastisement; and it, no doubt, often failed at the outset by unskilfulness in the operation, improper treatment after it, and bad matter. In order to secure success, as far as possible, Dr. Morison took the whole work upon himself. He was, as a proof of his success, furnished with the following pleasing evidence. At the time of the introduction of vaccination, and from time immemorial previously, the young men of the fishing villages in the parish, viz, Findon, Portlethen, and Dounie, never used to engage in landward service. One day meeting a fisherman, the Doctor asked him how his sons were engaged, and being told they were in farm service, he said he thought that none of the fishers’ sons were allowed to be so occupied. To which the fisherman replied “That used to be the case, but since they were vaccinated they had so many of them noo, they did na ken fat te dee wi’ them.” A ludicrous thing happened, when a man well on in years brought all his family, old and young, to be vaccinated. It having appeared that he had not been vaccinated himself, he was urged by the Doctor to submit to the operation first himself, but he refused, being apparently afraid of the pain. After all the children had been operated upon, he was again urged to submit, upon which he said to the eldest boy—“Wast sair, Jock ?” “Na, nae verra”, ”said the boy. “Weel,” said the father, “I wad nae care muckle to tak’ a scrat o’t mysel”. As he was getting Old the Doctor’ s hand got tremulous, and he devolved upon me the duty of vaccination, which I discharged till the Vaccination Act was passed, which made statutory provision for its discharge by others. Dr. Morison also contributed liberally to the funds which were raised for the endowment of the Church of Portlethen, for the erection of a new church and manse, and the reclamation of the barren ground, in which the manse was situated, for a glebe. This has been a great convenience to that extensive district. During what was all but a famine, in the year think it was, Dr. Morison bought meal from other quarters, and lodged it in a granary in the neighbourhood, and the people who were in want were assembled and had it doled out with the Doctor’s own hand from time to time; many being thereby saved from actual starvation. Dr. Morison’s greatest and last act of philanthropy in his parish was the erection, in 1839, of the foot suspension bridge over the Dee, which now unites the two divisions of the parish. Previous to its erection the only public means of communication between the one side of the river and the other was a parish boat, which was only used on Sundays. It could not, however, always be depended upon, as the river was often impassable owing to ice and heavy floods. The total cost of the bridge was about £1400, and, with the exception of a contribution of £30 from Mr. Menzies of Pitfodels, which only sufficed for making the pathway between the south end of the bridge and the turnpike road, it was wholly defrayed by Dr. Morison. He bequeathed, moreover, a sum of money for keeping it in repair, which had accumulated to such an amount as to enable the trustees to lay out about £300 a short time ago for thoroughly re-painting and repairing it. In the circumstances I have mentioned I am disappointed to hear, from time to time, some of the classes who usually ride in their carriages, asking me, on passing the bridge, in a tone of complaint, “Why didn’t Dr Morison when he was about the thing build a bridge for carriages?” and those who do not ride in these vehicles inquiring in an equally complaining tone, “I say, Doctor, fat for didna Dr. Morison mak’ his briggy for caerts?” I cannot doubt my readers will be pleased with the information I have given them about this philanthropic, generous, and christian minded man.

Murdo MacCaulay (1980) gives an excellent historical perspective of of Christianity in the Western Isles and a detailed account of the religious history of Lewis up until the “Disruption of 1843”. In part his work outlines the relationships of the many Morrisons who became ministers on Lewis and Harris. His work is a significant advancement on the preliminary attempt made by L A Morrison (1880, p 55) and Thomas (1878, pp 522-541). The following is a paraphrased account of the dates and relationships of the Morrisons who became ministers after 1642 when the Synod of Argyll resolved to appoint three ministers: 1. Farquhar Clerk at Stornua (Stornoway), 2. Murdoch McHuistonne at Lews (Barvas), and 3. John MacPherson at Harris. In 1643 Rev. Donald Morrison was admitted to Barvas and in 1644 transferred to Stornoway and was still there in 1676. He was descended from the family described as the Brieves on Lewis. He was born about 1613 and died about 1699. The genealogies given by Captain Thomas and L A Morrison are at odds with the genealogies outlined below taken from Fasti Ecclesiae Scoticanae and MacCaulay. Donald graduated MA from St Andrews in 1640 and married Jean Lauder on 3rd April 1643. He was succeeded by his son Kenneth (whereas Thomas says he was succeeded by his son Allan and that Kenneth was his brother, p 523 ) who was born in Barvas, 1647 (graduated from Aberdeen in 1667) and became Stornoway's minister in in 1689. Three of Donald and Jean’s sons, (1) Kenneth, (2) Donald and (3) Allan became ministers. Scott’s (1928) Fasti Ecclesiae Scoticanae confuses Rev Donald and his son Donald as it is wrongly stated on page 200 that Donald, son of Rev. Donald Morrison, married Jean Lauder. (1) Kenneth (born about 1647) had two sons, Alexander and Murdoch (a merchant in Stornoway), and a daughter Margaret who married Rev Aulay MacAulay of Harris. Kenneth was succeeded in Stornoway by his second cousin Donald (or Daniel) of Barvas who was also known as Domhnull MacRuairidh, Mhic Aonghais, Mhic Ailein, Mhic a’Bhreitheamh (son of the brieve, who was the “Indweller” John Morrison). He married Christine Morrison in 1708, and transferred to Stornoway in 1724. They had two daughters, Isobel and Anne. Donald’s wife was an alcoholic which caused many problems for Donald. He was supported in his troubles with the Synod by Rev. Aneas (Angus) Morrison who was the minister at Contin. Another of Rev. Donald Morrison’s sons, (2) Donald took over at Barvas about 1684, although according to MacCaulay (1980, p 64) there is some confusion over this as Donald is also referred to as Daniel by some informants. MacCaulay suggests Rev. Donald had six sons who became ministers and a seventh who became a surgeon. Their is no identification in the Fasti Ecclesiae Scoticanae of any of the children, four who were reputed to have become ministers. Finally, (3) Allan who graduated from Aberdeen in 1677 took over the parish of North Uist in 1688 as its minister. He married Margaret MacLeod. Allan was succeeded by his son Murdoch who was born about 1700 and ordained on Barvas in 1726. Murdoch was married twice, first to a MacAulay and second to Margaret MacKenzie of Gruinard. Murdoch had several children: Allan, Donald, John, Kenneth (1739), Katherine, Margaret, Colin, George (1745), Roderick (1748), Marion (1750) and Norman (1752). Murdoch Morrison’s fourth son, Kenneth Morrison born in 1739 graduated from Aberdeen with an MA in divinity in 1763 but never entered the ministry. Aneas was the second son of the “Indweller” and married Anne MacKenzie of Logie. They had a son named Donald and a daughter who became Mrs St Clair. Rev. John Morrison, younger brother of Aneas, was the minister at Gairloch and Urray (died 1747). He married Mary, daughter of John and Christian MacKenzie and had two sons (grandchildren of the “Indweller”): Rev. Norman Morrison (born 1707, died 1777, became a minister at Uig in 17420 and Rev. John Morrison (born in Dull, Perthshire 1701 and died 1774, and became the minister pf Petty and became known as the “Petty Seer”. Rev. John Morrison married a second time after the death of Mary, Christian who was the daughter of Alexander Munro of Kilchoan and had two more children, Alexander and Christina. Finally in Harris, John Morrison, Gobha na h-Earadh, born in Rodil in 1790, was a descendant of “the blind harpist” Roderick Morrison, and was a blacksmith by trade who was recognised as a god fearing scholar who could write in Gaelic, English and some Latin. He was appointed as a Catechist in 1843. This is not a comprehensive genealogy of the Lewis Morrison clergy, but nevertheless demonstrates how these particular Morrisons were the first family to become known by the surname Morrison on Lewis and Harris along with their connection to the ‘bhritheimh’ or brieves (judicial arbiters) who maintained a strong heredity line of lawmen until 1613. They, along with brieves from other islands such as Skye, appear to have assumed some degree of respect and influence after the lawless Norsemen relinquished their claim to the Hebrides and Man after the “Treaty of Perth” on 2 July 1266. The Lewis brieves maintained their influence until the late 1500s when their alleged adultery and treachery against the MacLeods took place. MacCoinnich (2015, pp 44-50) gives a detailed account of the ‘Sliochd a’ Bhritheimh’ or Brieve Kindred history on Lewis.

Polkelly seems to have been the most ancient property held in Scotland by the Mures. An Archibald Mure was slain at Berwick in 1298 when Baliol's army was routed. The Mures were prominent figures throughout the history of Scotland, from Sir Gilchrist Mure, who married the daughter and sole heir of Sir Walter Comyn with the blessing of King Alexander III, for his part in the battle of Largs. This secured the family seat at Rowallan Castle. Another version states that Gilchrist Mure was dispossessed of the house and living at Rowallan by the strong hand of Sir Walter Cuming, and was compelled to keep close in his castle of Polkelly until the King Alexander III raised sufficient forces to subdue Cuming and his adherents. The family had held Rowallan, in this version, from unknown antiquity. The conjoined arms of the first Muir of Rowallan were visible on the oldest part of the castle up until the 18th century. Elizabeth Mure, daughter of Sir Adam Mure of Rowallan and Jannet Mure, was mistress to Robert Stewart (who later became Robert II of Scotland in 1371). Later on November 22, 1347 she married him by Papal dispensation to legitimize their previously born children. After their legal marriage, Elizabeth Mure was styled Countess of Atholl, and her surname became Stewart. Elizabeth died sometime before 1355. Sir Gilchrist Muir built two chapels, one at the Well named for Saint Laurence and the other at Banked named for Saint Michael. The vestiges of these were still visible in 1876. He also built the chapel of Kilmarnock, commonly called Muir's Isle (sic). One of the Sir Robert Mures was slain at the Battle of Sark. His namesake was called the Rud of Rowallane, being large in stature, very strong and prone to pugilism; these characteristics neatly define the meaning of this archaic Scots word. He wasted his inheritance and during his lifetime a protracted feud took place with the house of Ardoch (Craufurdland) which resulted in much bloodshed. The 'Rud' resigned his lands in favour of his son John, who married a mistress of James IV.

he clan name '''Munro''', means "Man of the Ro River". This supports the traditional origin of the clan from the River Roe area in Northern Ireland. This is an area near modern-day Derry/Londonderry, Northern Ireland. T
radition states that Chief [[Munro-75|Donald Munro]], son of an Irish chief, [[O’Caan-1|O’Caan]], came to the help of [[King_of_Scots-12|King Malcolm II of Scotland]], expelling the invading Danes. However, this tradition only exists in writing from the late 17th century.[http://www.clanmunro.org.uk/info4.htm Clan Munro Information Sheets] clanmunro.org.uk. Retrieved 09, February 2013 D
uring the War of Scottish Independence the Munro Clan supported [[Bruce-129|King Robert the Bruce]]. They fought in the Battle of Bannockburn [[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Battle_of_Bannockburn]] and the Battle of Halidon Hill [[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Battle_of_Halidon_Hill]]. T
he first chief of Clan Munro documented by contemporary evidence is [[Munro-462|Robert de Munro]]. He became a supporter of the Earl of Ross and died fighting for him. D
uring the 15th and 16th centuries there was much turmoil and conflict which involved the Munro Clan. During the [[:Category: Thirty Years' War|Thirty Year War]], the 700 Munros along with the ‘’’Black Baron’’’ joined Gustalvus Adolfus of Sweden to defend Protestantism. T
hroughout their history, the Munro Clan fought. They fought for brethren, friends, nation, faith, and did not ever stop. After unity in the United Kingdom, they still fight abroad for their countrymen. They still have a Clan Chief to this day, and several international associations listed below.

It is among the oldest recorded surnames in Scotland. The clan is a sept of Clan Maxwell. Origins of the Clan http://www.genealogysource.com/fulbertofsaxon.html The clan can trace its origin to Fulbert "the Saxon", a vassal knight of Walter fitz Alan from Oswestry, Shropshire, England. One of Walter fitz Alan's followers was a Richard Wallace of Oswestry, of whom Fulbert would've likely been aware. It is possible that "the Saxon" refers to the Futhorc spelling of the name Wallace. Fulbert came to Scotland with Walter fitz Alan in about 1136 and fought for Scotland at the Battle of the Standard at Northallerton in 1138. Fulbert's sons were granted land in Renfrewshire for the service of their father, a knight to Walter fitz Alan, reconfirmed in a charter in 1157 by Malcolm IV. The family name is retained in placenames such as Pollok, Pollokshields and Pollokshaws, all situated to the south side of the River Clyde, between Glasgow city centre and Paisley. The church of Pollock was given to the monks of the Priory of Paisley in 1163 by Petrus de Polloc, eldest son of Fulbert. As part of a dowry for one of his daughters, Petrus bestowed the barony of Rothes upon her. Robert de Polloc, Fulbert's third son, gave the church of Mearns to the Priory of Paisley. John de Polloc was a signatory to the Ragman Rolls subscribing allegiance to King Edward I of England in 1296. John Pollok of Pollok fought on the side of Mary, Queen of Scots, at the Battle of Langside on 13 May 1568, only a few miles from Pollok Castle and, as a result, was forfeited of some of his lands. John Pollok, his son, was killed on 7 December 1593 at the Battle of Dryfe Sands near Lockerbie during a battle between Clan Maxwell and the Clan Johnstone. Robert Pollok of Pollok was knighted and made 1st Baronet of Pollok by Queen Anne in 1703 for his services to the crown. http://freepages.genealogy.rootsweb.ancestry.com/~mrward/pol_sur.htm#The%20%27POLLOCK%27%20%20Coat%20of%20Arms: ---- An extensive explanation of the differences in the descendants of Fulbert are in the notes for the American immigrant of this family, Robert Bruce Polk, proven ancestor of our 11th president, James Knox Polk. Data herein recorded follows our main source Bill Polk's research and this is from his notes: "Fulbert may have come with William the Conquerer in 1066 and may have participated in the Battle of Hastings, but this is not proven. Camp's "My Ancestors Came With the Conquerer," 1988, pg. 48, shows one Filberd and three Fiberd in the list of men who probably came with William. Whether the Fulbert, progenitor of the Pollok line, is one of these men will probably never be known. If he is one of the men above, then he was born long before 1080, the approximate date of his birth as given in most sources (Mary Winder Garrett, in her series of articles on the Polk family published in the late 1890s, shows his birth as 1075). That Fulbert is the progenitor of the Pollok family there is no doubt. This family is without question among the most ancient families in Scotland. Fulbert is shown as the father of both Peter (or Petrus) and Robert (or Robertus) de Pollok in documents showing donations to the Monastery of Paisley (then the Abby of Pasly) before 1199. Fulbert was probably not a nobleman or lord and probably had no title at all." 2. This and the next note from our Clan Pollock International Society source database: "Pollock is among the oldest family names recorded in Scotland, as written by George Crawfurd in his 'General Description of the Shire of Renfrew, Including an Account of the Noble and Ancient Families', first published in 1710. The surname Pollock was adopted from the ancient lands of Pollock in Renfrewshire, when surnames were beginning to be used. Records of the 12th century reveal the sons of Fulbert, the progenitor of the Pollock Family, held these lands. Fulbert's son, Petrus, who inherited the lands of Pollock from his father in 1163, was the first person to use Pollock as a surname. One surviving document charters the lands to Petrus through Walter Fitz-Alan, High Steward of Scotland and the progenitor of the >Royal Stewart line. The lands then passed to Robertus, brother of Petrus, when Petrus had no male heir. The main line of Pollock descent is from Robertus, who was a witness to the founding of Paisley Abbey in 1160, being described as 'Roberto filio Fulberti.' Between 1189 and 1199 he granted the Church of Mearns to the Monastery of Paisley. The original church building no longer stands. The location for the present church of Mearns is at the intersection of Eaglesham Road and Mearns Road. Many prominent Pollocks are buried in the adjoining cemetery and within the walls of the church. The lands were divided into Upper and Lower Pollock. The Pollocks retained upper Pollock while Lower Pollock was chartered to the Maxwell's. The Maxwell's of Pollock became a prominent branch of that powerful border clan. A common alliance was formed between the Maxwell's and the Pollocks. Marriages took place between members of the two families. Today, Pollocks continue to be recognized as septs of Clan Maxwell and may correctly wear the Maxwell tartan. The lineage of the family of Pollock-of-that-Ilk in Scotland was recorded by George Crawfurd in his 'General Description of the Shire of Renfrew, Including an Account of the Noble and Ancient Families', first published in 1710. John Pollok, Of That Ilk, as town Baillie, signed the Charter of St. Andrews University in 1453, the oldest university in Scotland. Fourteenth in descent from Fulbert was John Pollock of Pollock. He fought on the side of Mary's forces at Langside, only a few miles from Pollock Castle, ended her reign in Scotland. For his role in her losing cause, John Pollock forfeited some of his lands. On 30 November 1703, Sir Robert Pollock-of-that-Ilk was knighted and made Baronet of Nova Scotia by Queen Anne for his services to the crown, with a "recital of the antiquity and flourishing condition of the ancient family of Pollock-of that-Ilk, for 600 years". Other notable Pollocks in Great Britain were The Rt.. Hon. Sir Jonathan Frederick Pollock, Bart.,Lord Chief Baron of the Exchequer; Field Marshall Sir George Pollock, Bart., Lord Chief Justice of Bombay; Sir Frederick Pollock, Bart., famous barrister and codifier of English Law; Robert Pollock. Scholar and author of the once widely read epic poem "The Course of Time" and John Pollock, official biographer of The Reverend Billy Graham and author of many books, including 'the Apostle' and 'The Master.' With the passage of time, changes occurred to the Pollock surname. For some descendants of Scottish {Pollock it became Polk and Pogue, spelled in various ways. Capt. Robert Bruce Pollok emigrated from Donegal Ireland to Maryland around 1680 and was the progenitor of a great number of persons now using the name Polk and Pollock. Prominent among his American descendants were James K. Polk, 11th President of the United States, General Leonidas Polk of Civil War fame, and Colonel Thomas Polk of Charlotte, North Carolina, who convened that meeting at which Mecklenburg County, North Carolina declared it's independence from England in May 1775, a year ahead of the Philadelphia Convention. Governor Charles Polk of Delaware and Governor and Senator Thrusten Polk of Missouri also belonged to this family. Other notable Pollocks were James Pollock, an early Governor of Pennsylvania; Thomas Pollock, born in Glasgow, Scotland in 1654, and who died in 1722 while serving as acting governor of the Colony of North Carolina, and Oliver Pollock, from Colerain Ireland, who settled in Carlisle, Pennsylvania and is credited as the 'financier of the American Revolution in the West' during the Revolutionary War. Today there is no Pollock of that Ilk recognized as the hereditary chief of the clan. The last Pollock chief recognized by the Crown was in 1845. The clan badge portrays a boar pierced by an arrow and the motto Audacter et Strenue, Boldly and Strongly. In 1980, Clan Pollock adopted its own tartan and registered it with the Scottish Tartan Society in Scotland. Pollock Castle, in its last configuration, was a magnificent structure. Built in the style of a British manor house, the castle was demolished in 1954 and the lands were sold. For the first time in eight centuries the lands of Upper Pollock were no longer Pollock lands. Nothing of the old Pollock estate remains except the two gate houses, the stable, and the gardener's cottage (all are presently occupied), the castle stone foundation, the south entrance steps and a few stones that once formed the castle's massive walls. One of those stones, cut and polished, is imbedded in the Scottish Memorial Cairn in North Carolina. The cairn was dedicated in 1980 at the site of the annual Grandfather Mountain Highland Games, near Linville, North Carolina." 3. From A GENERAL DESCRIPTION OF THE SHIRE OF RENFREW, including an Account of the Noble and Ancient Families, who, from the Earliest Times Have Had Property in that County, and the Most Remarkable Facts in the Lives of Distinguished Individuals by George Crawfurd, Author of the Peerage of Scotland, etc and continued to the Present Period By George Robertson, Author of the Agricultural Survay of Mid Lothian, etc: Family Descent. POLLOK OF-THAT-ILK. This family is, without question, among the most ancient in Scotland. The first of which (anciently called Pulloc) whose existence can be proven by written evidence, was, I. Fulbert; he had three sons, Peter, Robert, and Helias. Peter, the eldest, was a man of great eminence in his day, (see page 37.) but he died without male issue. Helias, the third son, was in holy orders. II. Robert, the second son, seems to have been a companion of Walter the Stewart of Scotland. He was one of the witnesses of the Charter of Paisley, in 1164 ( see page 136 ). He appears to have been succeeded by his son, III. Robert (see an instance of his munificence to the Paisley Monks, page 37). He appears to have been succeeded by his son, IV. Peter de Pulloc, who is a witness to a resignation by Dungallus, son of Christinus, Judge of Lennox, of the lands of Cullbuth, supposed to be Kilbowie, in the district of Lennox, and of a piece of ground near the Kirk of Kilpatrick, to the Abbey of Paisley. Among the witnesses, he is set down immediately after Alano de Cathcart, and, from the Chartulary, it would appear that this was about the year 1234. V. The next in the course of succession, appears to be Thomas de Pulloc, who, in 1270, is witness to a resignation by John de Wardroba Bernaird de Erth, &c. In favor of the Abbey of Paisley, of the lands of Cachmannock, supposed now Cochnoch, Femballoch, Edenbarnon, Bachannet, Drumgreave, &c. He is set down among the witnesses after John de Knox. He appears to have been succeeded by, VI. John de Pulloc, who lived in the time of Edward I of England, and, unfortunately for himself and family, took part with Baliol against Bruce. He appears from Pryne's collection, p.662, to have sworn fealty to Edward; and in the reign of Robert Bruce, about 1310, there appears to have been a grant by Robert of his moveable goods to the Abbey of Arbroath, for his joining the English. Probably, from this cause, and at any rate about this period, a part of the family estate appears to have been ravished from the Polloks of that-Ilk, and to have been seized by the Maxwells, Lords of the Mearns. VII. Robert de Pollok, successor to the above John, espoused Agnes, daughter of John Maxwell, Lord of the Mearns. He appears to have been succeeded by, VIII. John de Pollok his son, and accordingly there is in the charter-chest of Over Pollok, an original charter, dated 3d May 1372, granted by John Maxwell, Lord of the Mearns, with consent of Robert de Maxwell, his son, and heir to his beloved Kinsman, heir of Robert de Pollok, son of Agnes Maxwell, deceased, the daughter of the said John Lord of the Mearns. He appears to have been succeeded by. IX. John Pollok, designated of that-ilk, in an instrument of resignation in the charter-chest of Lord Dundonald, dated 30th March 1441,bearing to be granted by the said John Pollok and Walter Spreul of Cowden, in favor of Thomas Spreul, of the lands of Cowden and Uply. To him succeeded, X. Charles Pollok, and of this date (28th July 1486), John Maxwell, Lord of the Mearns, granted a charter of the Lands of OverPollok to the said Charles, designing him his kinsman, and to Margaret Stewart his wife, daughter of the Laird of Minto, (see page 38) in conjunct fee and liferent, and to the heirs male procreated betwixt them, who failing, to the superior on Charles's own resignation. He had two sons, 1. John; 2. David, of whom afterwards. The eldest son, John, died in his father's life-time. He married Janet Spreul, a lady of the family of Cowden, by whom he had a son, John, who succeeded his grandfather, but, dying in his infancy, the estate, in terms of the investiture to heirs male, devolved upon XI. David, the second son of Charles, who obtained from the superior a charter, dated the last July 1527, altering the Investiture from heirs male to his heirs whatsoever. He married Marion, or rather Margaret, (see page 38) daughter of William Stewart of Castlemilk, by whom he left John Pollok, his son and heir, who, in consequence of a particular agreement entered into by his father, married Margaret, daughter of Gabriel Sempill of Cathcart. Crawfurd says that David left a younger son, of whom the Polloks of Balgray were descended; but I have not been able to see any evidence of this descent, though I see he had a younger son, Charles Pollok, and this Charles was afterwards designed of Greenhill, and by Janet Stirling, his spouse, Charles left a son John. David Pollok appears to have died in 1545, and was succeeded by his son, XII. John, who dying in 1564, left a son and heir. From the donations of the churches of Mearns and Pollok by the Pollocks of that-ilk,to the Abbey of Paisley, it seems extremely probable, that the barony of Mearns and lands of Nether Pollok were their property; and this opinion is very considerably strengthened, if not evident, from the circumstance of the lands of Nether Pollok bearing their name. XIII. John Pollok, who married Janet Mure, (see page 38), daughter of William Mure of Glanderston, and he appears to have died before March 1577, and was succeeded by his son, XIV. John Pollok, who married, 1. Maud Montgomery, daughter of Neil Montgomery of Lainshaw; and it would appear, that certain differences having arisen betwixt them, a divorce had taken place, and it appears he was afterwards married to Dorthea Stuart of Cardonald, by whom he had, 1. Robert; 2. Mary, who married James Williamson, brother of Robert Williamson of Murieston. Being at the conflict at Locherby, in the year 1593, assisting his kinsman, Lord Maxwell, assisting his kinsman, Lord Maxwell, against the Laird of Johnston, was the XV. Robert, who was married to Jean, daughter of James Mowat of Busby, and by her had his eldest daughter, name unknown, married to John Pollok of Balgray, whose issue seems to have failed; also, 1. Robert; 2. Helen, married to Robert Marshall, writer in Glasgow, by whom she had no surviving issue. This Robert acquired the superiority of the estate from the Earl Nithsdale, and came thereby again to hold it of the crown. He died in 1657, and was succeeded by his son, XVI. Robert, who, in 1660, married Jean Crawfurd, daughter of Cornelius Crawfurd of Jordanhill, by whom he had; 1. Robert, and several other children, of whom there is no issue, except by a daughter, married to Semple of Beltrees. He died in 1676, and was succeeded by his son, Robert Pollok, who was married, 1 to Annabella, daughter of Sir George Maxwell of Nether Pollock; 2. To Annabella, daughter Walter Stewart of Pardovan. He was, by her Majesty Queen Anne, created a Baronet of Nova Scotia, 30th November 1703, to him and to the heirs male of his body; it proceeds upon a recital of the antiquity and flourishing condition of the ancient family of Pollok of that-ilk, for 600 years then by-past, since the reigns of David and William, Kings of Scotland; also, upon recital of the many illustrious services of the said Robert, now Sir Robert of that-ilk, the representative without interruption, of that ancient family. As also, his faithful and zealous services, in defending the reformed religion at the time of the Revolution, and that, when bearing the King's commission, he had been taken, and confined in the most barbarous and uncivilized places of the Highlands, during the space of nine months, because he would not renounce his allegiance to King William. By his second wife, he had four sons and three daughters: Robert, an Officer in the army, who died before his father , without issue; # Walter, of whom afterwards; John, a Captain in the army - was killed at the battle of Fontenoy. He married to Ann, daughter of John Lockhart of Lee, by whom he left one daughter, Robina, of whom afterwards; William, who died without issue. 1. Elizabeth, married to Alexander Hamilton of Grange, and had issue; 2. Jean, married to James Polok of Arthurlie, and had issue; Annabella, married to James Hamilton of Newton, surgeon in Glasgow, who had an only son, James, who died without issue. Sir Robert Pollok died in 1736, and was succeeded by XVIII. Walter Pollok, the second son, who married --- Bogle, daughter of ---Bogle of Daldowie, merchant in Glasgow; by the said Lady, 1.Robert; 2. Walter, who died unmarried; 3. John, an Officer in His Majesty's service, who died unmarried; 4th, Elizabeth, who died unmarried; 5, Jean of whom afterwards; Walter, having predeceased his father, his eldest son, XIX. Sir Robert, succeeded to his grandfather. He married to Ann Crawfurd, daughter of the Reverend Cornelius Crawfurd, son of Lawrence Crawfurd of Jordanhill, Esquire, by whom he had an only daughter, Cornelia, and he dying, 1783, was succeeded by XX. Cornelia Pollok, his only child, who survived her father but a very short time, having died in her infancy, on 28th Feb, 1785,and was succeeded by her aunt, XXI. Jean Pollok, who died unmarried, in 1807, and was succeeded by her cousin, XXII. Robina Pollok, only child of Captain John Pollok of Belgray, and relict of Sir Hew Crawfurd of Jordanhill, Bart.

In 1222, Alured de Preston is recorded as a witness to a charter, and sometime between 1240 and 1250, Lyulph, son of Lyulph de Preston had a charter for a piece of land in Linlithgow from John Albus, which he later made over to Neubotel (now Newbattle) Abbey. It is said that there is an ancient link between this family of Prestons and the de Prestoun family in Ireland, who later became the Viscounts Gormanston. A quitclaim by Johannes Gallard apud Muskilburg was witnessed, in 1248, by Johannes de Prestun, and in 1292, both William de Preston and Henry de Preston appear as charter witnesses. Nicol de Prestone and William de Prestone from the Edinburgh area both signed the Ragman Roll in 1296, pledging their allegiance to England's Edward I. In 1342, Sir John Preston managed to obtain a charter for the lands of Gourtoun, or Gorton. At the 1346 Battle of Durham, which was a decisve English victory, Sir John was captured, as was King David II. Both were eventually released, for the king that was after eleven years, after significant ransoms were paid. Symone de Prestoun, in 1362, was burgess of Edinburgh, and, in 1363, Peter of Preston of Scotland was given back 13 marks which he had spent on jewels for Joan, David II's consort, who died the previous year. An arm bone of Saint Giles was brought to Scotland from France by William Preston, and he gave it to the kirk of St. Giles in Edinburgh. In 1470, clerk of the realm of Scotland, Alexander Preston, had safe conduct papers into England. In 1491 Will of Preston is recorded as a witness to a charter, and in the same year a Vill of Prestoune appears. The provost of Edinburgh in 1557 was Sir Simon Preston of Craigmillar, and he gifted the land of Trinity Hospital. The principal line of the Preston family ceased to exist after the death of Sir Robert Preston in 1639. During the American Revolutionary War (1775-1783) Sir Charles Preston, 5th Baronet, commanded Fort St. Jean in Quebec during its seige. He returned to Scotland after the war, in 1784, and subsequently became the Member of Parliament for Dysart in Fife. find one here [[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Category:Scottish_clans 1]] or here [[http://www.electricscotland.com/webclans/index.html 2]] '''Preston Baronets''' The Preston Baronetcy, of Airdrie in the County of Fife, was created in the Baronetage of Nova Scotia on 22 February 1628 for John Preston. The descent after the death of the fourth Baronet sometime after 1701 and the accession of Robert Preston in 1784 is uncertain. The title became dormant on the latter's death in c. 1792. The Preston Baronetcy, of Valleyfield in the County of Perth, was created in the Baronetage of Nova Scotia on 13 March 1637 for George Preston. The fifth Baronet sat as Member of Parliament for Kirkcaldy Burghs. The title became dormant on the death of the ninth Baronet in 1873.

The castle of Craigmillar is one of the most perfectly preserved examples of late medieval castle-building in Scotland. Begun in the early 15th century by the Preston family, who had acquired Craigmillar in 1374. The Prestons were lairds of Craigmillar for almost 300 years. The castle stands on a rocky hilltop 3 miles (4.5 Km) south east of Edinburgh, within sight of Edinburgh Castle, and commanding extensive views in all directions. A village already existed at Craigmillar in the 12th century, when David I (1124-53) granted Dunfermline Abbey some land and houses there. In 1253, the same abbey also received from William, son of Henry, the laird of Craigmillar, a building plot (or 'toft') and some arable land, meadow and pasture. There was no evidence of any castle at this date. Sir John Preston had received the nearby barony of Gorton (or Gouerton) from David II. In February 1374, Robert II granted to Sir John's son, Sir Simon Preston, the whole of Craigmillar (or Cragmelor), which had been surrendered by its previous tenant, William de Capella. Sir Simon was an important local figure, serving at various times as sheriff of Edinburgh, or Midlothian. He was to hold Craigmillar from the king as a hereditary fief in return for providing an archer to serve in the king's army whenever so required. It may have been Sir Simon Preston's son, also named Simon, or perhaps his grandson Sir George, who began to build the massive L-shaped tower around which the castle was later to grow. The lineage goes as follows: Sir John de Preston of Gorton b. ca.1280 d. by 1346 married and had 2 sons and a daughter: Sir Simon Preston (I) b. ca.1310, Sheriff of Edinburgh/Lothian from 1360 and of Craigmillar 1374. Sir Simon had two sons: Sir Simon Preston II b.ca.1340. Sir Henry Preston fl. 1371/85. William Preston b.ca. 1312. Margaret Preston b. ca. 1314. Sir Simon Preston II married and had three sons: Sir George Preston (I) b.ca 1365 d.8-1424. Sir George had a son, his successor: John Preston (I) b. ca.1390 d.1425/6 married Christiana Cockburn d. c.1459. Sometime sheriff of Edinburgh and Berwick, set his seal to a charter at Craigmillar in October 1425, but it appears he died soon after, for in the following year his son and heir William Preston, who was still a minor, was placed in the care of his cousin Archibald until he should reach the age of 25. John Preston b. ca.1372 d.xxxx Sir Andrew Preston b. ca.1374 d.xxxx. Sir Andrews descendant, Sir David Preston of Whitehill will succeed to the barony in 1640. Sir William Preston b.<1417 d.7-1453, son of John Preston, succeeded his father as laird of Gorton and Craigmillar in 1442. Sir William was one of the most celebrated of the line, for it was he who presented to Edinburgh's high kirk a reliquary containing the arm bone of the city's patron saint, St Giles, which he had acquired during his travels in France. It may also have been Sir William or perhaps his son who enlarged the castle by constructing the quadrangular barmkin wall around three sides of the tower. This enclosed a series of courtyard buildings and was strengthened at the corners with circular towers, provided with gun-loops, from which a deadly fire could have been directed at any attackers. When Sir William died in July 1453, he was buried in the Lady Aisle, just south of the choir in St Giles' Kirk. A chapel was to be built on the south side of the Lady Aisle, in which a chaplain was to celebrate mass and offer prayers for his soul on each anniversary of his death. This was later called Preston Aisle. The relic of St Giles disappeared during the Reformation a century later, and there is no trace of the memorial plaques or arms today. The Preston arms can still be seen however, on the easternmost pillar of the south choir arcade, immediately next to the bay where the high altar stood. Sir William Preston was succeeded in 1453 by his son, William Preston II who died abt.1478. Sir William Preston II b.xxxx d. c.1478 was succeeded by his son Sir Simon Preston III. One of the first duties of Sir Simon was to take custody of James III's younger brother, John, Earl of Mar. Resentful of his two brothers' popularity and warned by a witch, suitably prompted by the princes' political enemies, that he would die by the hand of his nearest of kin, the king had already imprisoned the elder of his brothers, Alexander, duke of Albany. Albany, however, had escaped from the Edinburgh Castle and fled to the French court. Bishop John Lesley's History next records that the king's second brother, the earl of Mar, 'wes takin in the nicht in his awin house, had to Cragmillar, and keipit thair at the Kingis commaund, and wes convict of ane conspiracie be witchecrafte agains the King'. The unfortunate man was then brought to a house in Canongate and while seated in a bath, 'they cuttit ane of his vanes and causit him bleid to dead'. In August 1511, James IV erected the lands which Sir Simon Preston III was holding at Craigmillar, including the 'castle, fortalice and mill', into a free barony, for which the annual rent was to be a penny Scots at Whitsun. Apparently, Sir William Preston II also had a son Sir Thomas Preston who was the castle chaplain from 1523. Sir Simon Preston III b.ca.1450 d.1519, married Unknown and had two sons, William Preston and George Preston. His eldest son William Preston b.ca.1480 d.c.1519, married Elizabeth Hepburn and died before Sir Simon, therefore, in 1520, Sir Simon was succeeded by his son George Preston. It is believed that much of the addition to the castle was done by Sir Simon Preston III because the Preston Coat of Arms, accompanied by the Press-tun rebus, which now surmounts the gate to the west garden, bears the date 15{1}0. (The Preston rebus mentioned under the coat of arms consists of a press on the left and a tun, or barrel, on the right. All carved in stone.) The new walls also enclosed the eastern side of the family chapel which appears to have been built around this time. The chapel is first recorded in a protocol of the notary John Foular, dated 1 June 1523, by which the rents from two properties in Edinburgh, amounting to 7 merks annually, were granted 'to a discreet man, Sir Thomas Preston, chaplain in the chapel of Saint Thomas the Martyr [ie Thomas Becket, archbishop of Canterbury, died 1170], situated within the Castle of Cragmilour, and his successors, chaplains therein, for celebrating [mass] now and in all time coming, for the soul of the late Sir Symon Preston of that Ilk, and for the souls of his forebears and their successors'. Sir George Preston b.ca. 1480 d.xxxx, second son of Sir Simon Preston III, succeeded the barony in 1520. He married Isabella Pringle and they had a son Simon Preston IV who succeeded to the barony of Craigmillar in 1543. Sir Simon Preston IV b.ca.1510 d. c.1575 married first Janet Beaton b.xxxx d. by 1549. Sir Simon married 2nd Elizabeth Menteith. Sir Simon Preston IV was to have a long and eventful career as laird of Craigmillar. His connections with the city of Edinburgh were also close. In 1538-43 and 1544-45 he served as provost, following a family precedent already established by his forebears Sir Henry Preston in 1434-39 and James Preston in 1525. (First mention of James Preston and he is not shown in the lineage chart.) In addition to Craigmillar, Sir Simon also possessed a town house opposite the town cross, on the site now occupied by the City Chambers (formerly the Royal Exchange.) The first major event to affect Craigmillar under Sir Simon Preston IV was an English invasion of Scotland. In May 1544, following the Scots' repudiation of an agreement made earlier at Greenwich to form an alliance between Scotland and England by marrying the young Queen Mary to Prince Edward, the son and heir of King Henry VIII, the earl of Hertford landed with an army in Leith with a view to persuading the Scots to change their minds. An anonymous history of the period tells us that the army 'past to Craigmillar, quhilk was haistilie gevin to thame, promesand to keip the samyne without skaith [damage]: quhilk promes thai break, and brunt and destroyit the said hous'. A rather different interpretation of the apparent ease with which the English took the castle, however, is given by the Bishop John Lesley, who casts the city's provost in the unflattering role of a collaborator. Lesley relates that the merchants of Edinburgh had taken most of their valuables to Craigmillar for safe keeping: but that this, 'not without froaud of the keparis, as wes reported, wes betrayed to the Inglishmen for a parte of the bowtaine [booty] and spoill thairof'. If the accusation was true, it could have done Sir Simon little good, for he was himself taken prisoner and made to walk as far as London before being released. In 1549, Sir Simon Preston IV was once more in Edinburgh, when he and his second wife Elizabeth Menteith, were granted a charter for the barony of Preston. A stone panel bearing the Preston coat-of-arms and the date 1549 which formerly surmounted the outer main gate of Craigmillar indicates that Sir Simon did not delay in making food the damage which the castle had suffered five years before. The construction of this period seems to have included the rebuilding of the east and south-east ranges around the inner court, and building (or rebuilding) of a strong outer wall around the castle, defended by rounded towers pierced by wide-mouthed gun-ports. In the years following the return of Mary Queen of Scots from France, in August 1561, Sir Simon Preston IV was to show himself to be one of the queen's most loyal supporters. In 1562, he won Mary's gratitude when, as governor of Dunbar Castle, he failed to carry out a sentence of execution passed on the rebel earl of Huntly. In October of 1562, Mary nominated him once more for the position of provost of Edinburgh, but it was not until August 1565 that the burgh council would agree to accept him. He held the post until 1568, and between 1565 and 1567 also served as a privy councillor. In September 1563, Mary spent a week at Craigmillar Castle as a guest of Sir Simon Preston IV. While there she received Thomas Randolph, the ambassador of Queen Elizabeth I, who warned her that if she wished to remain on friendly terms with England she should find herself an acceptable husband. Mary's eventual choice was the Catholic, Henry, earl of Darnley, whom she married on 29 July 1565. Darnley was not liked by Mary or her supporters and in December 1566, she spent some time at Craigmillar and a group of her advisors also meeting at Craigmillar made a fateful decision that would seal the fate of her unwanted husband. The pact was subsequently known as the Craigmillar Bond. Conspirators included the earls of Argyll, Huntly and Bothwell. Early in 1567 Darnley returned to Edinburgh from Glasgow. Mary suggested they spend some time at Craigmillar but he elected to stay at his own town house, Kirk o'Fields, just next to the town wall. On the nite of Feb. 9/10, 1567, the house was blown apart by an explosion. The next day when Darnleys body was found it was discovered he had been strangled. Sir Simon Preston IV died sometime before 1575, but had already been succeeded as laird of Craigmillar by his son David in June 1569. Sir David Preston (I) b.c.1530 d.1593, succeeded to the barony of Craigmillar in 1569, married Unknown and had 3 children: Sir George Preston III b.c.1560 d.1625. Sir Robert Preston b.c1563 d.1639. Richard Preston b.c.1565 d.1638/9. In Feb. 1593, Sir David Preston was succeeded by his son, Sir George Preston III. May 18, 1625, George Preston III was succeeded by his brother Sir Robert Preston. Sir Robert died without issue in 1639. Craigmillar then passed to a distant relative. In 1639, the estate passed to Sir David Preston b. c.1600 of Whitehill, descended from the first Sir Simon. Sir Simon Preston II had three sons, including a Sir Andrew Preston. Sir David Preston was the descendent of Sir Andrew Preston. Sir David Preston (II) married Susana Colville and had 3 children: Sir George Preston IV b.c1630 who later sold Craigmillar Castle to Sir John Gilmour in 1660. John Preston b. c.1633 d.xxxx. Agnes Preston b.c.1635 d.xxxx. Thus ended the Prestons of Craigmillar, 1374 to 1660. There has to be a lot of other Prestons descended from these Prestons. Perhaps a John born 1726 (Walnut Grove Prestons) or another John born about 1699 (Smithfield Prestons) or perhaps a Philip born about 1715.....who knows. The document goes on to talk about Craigmillar under the Gilmours. Much of the above is quoted directly from the document No estimate of dates of birth were given. http://www.suddenlink.net/pages/fpreston/craigmil.htm ==See Also== ==Places of Interest== '''Craigmillar Castle, Edinburgh''' [[Image:Maria s Photobox-4.jpg|300 px]] [[Image:Maria s Photobox-5.jpg|300 px]] Nooks and crannies Craigmillar is one of Scotland’s most perfectly preserved castles. It began as a simple tower-house residence. Gradually, over time, it developed into a complex of structures and spaces, as subsequent owners attempted to improve its comfort and amenity. As a result, there are many nooks and crannies to explore. Of equal importance were the surrounding gardens and parkland, and the present-day Craigmillar Castle Park has fascinating reminders of the castle’s days as a rural retreat on the edge of Scotland’s capital city. At the core lies the original, late-14th-century tower house, among the first of this new form of castle built in Scotland. It stands 17m high to the battlements, has walls almost 3m thick, and holds a warren of rooms, including a fine great hall on the first floor, and the so-called ‘Queen Mary’s Room’ beside it, where Mary is said to have slept when staying there as a guest of the Prestons. In all probability, Mary resided in a multi-roomed apartment elsewhere in the courtyard, probably in the east range. Also here is a labyrinth of dark spaces, including a grim basement prison where an upright skeleton was found walled up in the early 19th century. The west range was rebuilt as the Gilmour family’s residence after 1660. Beyond the well-preserved 15th-century courtyard wall, complete with gunholes shaped like inverted keyholes, lie other buildings, including a private family chapel. The lands of Craigmillar were granted to the monks of Dunfermline Abbey by King David I in the 12th century.[3] The Preston family were first granted land in the area by King David II in 1342 and held 2/3 of the estate. In a further grant of 1374, King Robert II gave the remaining lands of Craigmillar to Sir Simon de Preston, Sheriff of Midlothian.[3][4] It was Simon's son, Simon Preston, or his grandson, Sir George Preston, who began work on the tower house which now forms the core of the castle. This was in place by 1425, when a charter was sealed at Craigmillar by Sir John Preston.[3] The courtyard wall was probably added by Sir William Preston (d. 1453), who had travelled in France, and drew on continental inspiration for his new work.[4] He also brought back the arm of Saint Giles, which he presented to the High Kirk of Edinburgh, where the Preston Aisle is named for him.[5] In 1480, John Stewart, Earl of Mar, brother of King James III was held prisoner at Craigmillar, accused of practising witchcraft against the King.[4] 16th century. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Craigmillar_Castle http://www.marie-stuart.co.uk/Castles/craigmillar.htm '''Culross Castle''', Fife. Culross Palace and Abbey. Now owned by the National Trust for Scotland. [[Image:Bruce-1503.jpg|300px]] Sir George Bruce of Carnock (c. 1550 – 1625) was a Scottish merchant and engineer. He was born in Carnock, near Dunfermline. Between 1597 and 1611,[2] Bruce built a mansion house in Culross, using materials from his foreign trading. This building has subsequently become known as Culross Palace. He lavishly decorated the palace and the stunning painted ceilings, ornate features and panelling can still be seen. Culross Palace is now under the care of the National Trust for Scotland and has been restored to its 17th-century splendour.[3] The palace building, which had faded to a white wash has been restored to its original yellow-orange exterior. The courtyard path and the garden have also been remodelled, with the garden now full of vegetables, herbs and plants, growing as they would have done in the 17th century.

'''Origins of the Clan''' The name Rattray is taken from the barony of Rattray in Perthshire. This barony has been in their possession since the eleventh century. The Rattray estate includes the ruins of a pict rath-tref or fort dwelling. It stands on a sandy mound which is associated by local tradition with Pagan rites. The first recorded Laird of Rattray was Alan who witnessed charters by William the Lion and Alexander II of Scotland. '''Wars of Scottish Independence''' During the Wars of Scottish Independence, Alan's grandson, Eustace Rattray, was captured at the Battle of Dunbar (1296) and taken to England as a prisoner. Eustace's son was Adam Rattray who swore fealty to Edward I of England, appearing on the Ragman Rolls of 1296. Adam was succeeded by his son, Alexander Rattray, who was amongst the barons who sat in the Parliament at Ayr to determine the succession to the throne in 1315. Alexander was succeeded by his brother, Eustace, the sixth Laird of Rattray, who was accused of being involved in a plot to depose Robert the Bruce, but he was later acquitted. '''15th and 16th centuries''' In 1463 Sir Silvester Rattray of Rattray was an ambassador to England and inherited from his mother large estates around Fortingall in Atholl. This caused the powerful Stewart Earl of Atholl to be jealous. Silvester Rattray was succeeded by his son, John, who had been knighted in 1488 by James IV of Scotland. His eldest son died serving in the Netherlands as a professional soldier but he left another two sons and two daughters. The eldest of the two daughters was Grizel, who had married John Stewart, Earl of Atholl, and the earl promptly claimed half of the barony of Rattray in her right The Earl also induced his wife's sister, Elizabeth, to try and obtain her share of the Rattray barony. Sir John Rattray's second son, Patrick Rattray, was driven from Rattray Castle in 1516 by the Earl of Atholl and was forced to take refuge in Nether Kinballoch where he built a new house at Craighall. However the Stewart Earl of Atholl murdered him in 1533. The third son of Sir John Rattray was another Silvester Rattray who succeeded his murdered brother. Due to the Earl of Atholl's continuing threats, he petitioned to the king for dispensation to be legally recognised in the courts in Dundee instead of Perth where the Earl of Atholl had great influence and Silvester considered the visit too dangerous. Silvester Rattray was succeeded by his son, David Rattray of Craighall, who had three sons. The second son was another Silvester Rattray who was Reverend of Persie and became the first minister of Rattray after the Scottish Reformation. The eldest son, George, was murdered in 1592 and Silvester, the younger son, succeeded to the title. '''17th century and Civil War''' Silvester Rattray was tutored by his uncle, the Reverend John Rattray, and allied himself to the powerful Earls of Erroll, chiefs of Clan Hay. He died in 1612, leaving three sons. The eldest son was David Rattray, who fought for Charles I of England during the Scottish Civil War and, as a result, his seat at Craighall endured a short siege. The youngest son was John Rattray, who was captured at the Battle of Worcester in 1651 after the defeat of Charles II of England, and Rattray was imprisoned in the Tower of London. The Rattrays sought to consolidate their lands and, in 1648, Patrick Rattray obtained a new charter to their lands under the great seal which united the barony of Kinballoch with Rattray and their other associated parishes into the one free barony of Craighall-Rattray. In 1682, the new barony passed to Patrick's eldest son and also laid claim to the Rattray lands that had been sized by the Stewart Earl of Atholl in the 16th century. James Rattray of Rannagulzion and Corb fought at the Battle of Killiecrankie in 1689. Referred to as James, son of David Rattray of Rannagullane. '''18th century and Jacobite risings''' Patrick Rattray's only son, Thomas Rattray, entered the Church and rose to be the Bishop of Brechin (then of Dunkeld) and became Primus of Scotland in 1739. Thomas was a Jacobite and his second son, John Rattray, was the physician to the Jacobite leader, Charles Edward Stuart, following him throughout the Jacobite rising of 1745. He was captured after the Battle of Culloden but, upon the intervention of Duncan Forbes, Lord Culloden, he was reprieved. The bishop's eldest son, James Rattray, sheltered Jacobite fugitives at Craighall. James Rattray of Rannagulzion was commissioned as a major of foot in the Atholl brigade in the 1745 rising. See commission into Prince Charles's army as a Major of foot in Tullibardines regiment National Library of Scotland. Served in the Ogilvie regiment. '''19th century and the British Empire''' Col. Thomas Rattray, C.S.I., C.B., B.S.C. (a Rattray of Rannagulzion) commanded the Governor-General's bodyguard cavalry and is well known for having raised a new police battalion, known as the Bengal Military Police Battalion, at Lahore on 15 April 1856, which distinguished itself throughout the Indian Mutiny. This famous battalion, which was regularised as an infantry unit in the British Indian Army as the 45th Rattray's Sikhs in the 1860s, later became the 3rd Battalion 11th Sikh Regiment in 1922 and then the 3rd battalion the Sikh Regiment (Rattray's) in the modern Indian army. The twenty-second and twenty-third Lairds of Rattray died without heirs and the estate then passed to a cousin, the Honourable James Clerk Rattray, sheriff deputy of Edinburgh. James Clerk Rattray, the twenty-sixth Laird was a distinguished soldier who rose to the rank of general and who in 1897 was created a Knight of the Bath. He served during the Crimean War and during the Indian Mutiny of 1857. ''Text is available under the Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike License; additional terms may apply.

Clan Riddell sees its origins come from two different sources; one being personal, the other territorial.

:The personal origin comes from the Ridels who came from ''Gascony, in south-west France'', whereas the territorial surname, de Rydale, came from ''a wapentake (an old English administrative meeting place) in the North Riding area of Yorkshire.'' The two versions of the name appeared in Scotland almost at identical times, and the only way the families are distinguished is through the spellings, which, at that early date in recorded history, is considered rather remarkable since names rarely were spelled the same way consistenly. The Ridels of Gascony never put the de (meaning 'of') prefix in front of their surname as it was personal, however, the ''de Rydales'', evidentally, did because the name was taken from where the lived.

:It is thought that Gervasius Ridel was the first Ridel of Craneston (as in Cranstoun-Riddell in Midlothian), as he was recorded, around 1124, as being a witness in the Inquisitio of Earl David in regards to the lands of the church of Glasgow, and Gervasius was also likely to have been a descendant of the ''Galfridus Ridel de Blaye'' of 1048. At that point the surname was only a personal one in Normandy. ===The Ancient History of the Distinguished Surname Riddell=== {{Image|file=Graces_Graphics-5.jpg |align=r |size=m |caption=Ruins of Manor House of Riddell

The family branches have followed the early custom of bestowing their names upon their lands whenever and wherever acquired. In Scotland there is a ''Cranstown-Riddell'', ''Glen-Riddle'', ''Mount-Riddell'' and Minto-Riddell. ''Walter'' who received a charter for the lands of Lilliesleaf in Roxburghshire. William the Lion was taken prisoner at the Battle of Alnwick in 1174 and one of Gervase's nephews was sent as a hostage. :''Swinburn in Northumberland'' was also acquired by the Riddells. In 1296 Sir William Riddell of Riddell appears on the Ragman Rolls swearing fealty to Edward I of England. :In 1628 ''Sir John Riddell'' was created a Baronet of Nova Scotia. ] His lands were then the erected into a barony and regality of New Riddell. His third son was William Riddell who was knighted by Charles I of England and served in the wars in the Netherlands. :The ''Reverend Archibald Riddell'', third son of the second baronet, was imprisoned because he would not renounce his Covenanter beliefs. A prominent seventeenth century merchant in Edinburgh, John Riddell, claimed descend from Galfridus de Reidel. John amassed great wealth from the trade across the Baltic Sea.[2] During the Scottish Civil War his son, who acquired extensive lands near Linlithgow, is said to have intrigued with the forces of Oliver Cromwell and became a close friend of General Monck. :The family later acquired extensive ''Argyll estates'' of Ardnamurchan and Sunart. In 1778 ''James Riddel, first Baronet of Ardnamurchan'' received his title. He was also a Fellow of the Society of Arts and Sciences and superintendent general to the Society of British Fishery. :Sir Rodney Riddell, fourth Baronet was a professional soldier who campaigned in New Zealand and Afghanistan during the Second Anglo-Afghan War. ===Resources=== * [http://riddellestate.co.uk/2/2/About-Riddell-Estate/About-Riddell-Estate.html| Riddell Roots Project] * ''Border Memories: Or, Sketches of Prominent Men and Women of the Border'' Walter Riddell Carre, author; published date: January 1, 1876 * [https://archive.org/details/historyancientr00ridlgoog "''History of the Ancient Ryedales and Their Descendants in Normandy, Great Britain, Ireland, and America"'',(1884)] [[ridlon-117|G.T.

The current Chief of the Clan is [[Baird-1704|David Rose]], 26th Baron of Kilravock. David was preceded by his maternal aunt, [[Rose-5531|Anna Elizabeth Guillemard Rose]], 25th of Kilravock who died in Nairn on December 9, 2012, aged 88 years. Most genealogists now believe that the family of Rose are descended from a Norman family originating from the region of Caen in Normandy. Likely related to other families of that region, Bisset's and Bois, they arriving in England (Wiltshire and Dorset) with William the Conqueror. A charter is noticedPeople of Medieval Scotland citing Rose of Kilravock, 28-9 [http://db.poms.ac.uk/record/source/6990/ Kilravock] dated to c. 1280/1290, where an Elizabeth Bisset, daughter of the nobleman, the late Sir John Bisset, Lady of Kilravock and spouse of the late Sir Andrew del Bois, in her free widowhood, has given, granted, and by this her present charter established, to [[Rose-5542|Hugh de Ros (Rose)]] and Mary his spouse, her daughter, and their heirs, in feu and heritage, all her land of Kilravock. Thus the lands and titles to Kilravock passed to the family of Rose and the title has remained to this time. During the early part of the Wars of Independence they were English knights and appear regularly amongst the knights of Edward I. and Edward II.. While history has, at times, interchanged the name with Ross there is no known genealogical link with the ancient family of Ross, ancient Mormaers of Ross. :Crest: '''A harp upon a chapea''' :Motto: '''Constant and True''' :Plant badge: '''(Andromeda media) Wild Rosemary''' ===Arms of the family of Rose of Kilravock=== The arms of the family of Rose of Kilravock show descendency from those of Rose, Baron of Hamlake (England).

Before the Roman invasion of Britain, this area was occupied by Picts, a group of Celtic-speaking people. Their Latin name, Picti, appears in written records from the 3rd to the 10th century. They achieved a large degree of political unity in the late 7th and early 8th centuries through the Kingdom of Fortriu. By the year 900, they had merged with the Gaelic kingdom of Dal Riata to form the Kingdom of Alba (Scotland). At that time, Ross was part of the vast earldom of Moray. It became a separate earldom in the mid 12th century, when Máel Coluim is found designated as the Earl of Ross around 1168. There is some controversy concerning his origin as it is not clear if Máel Coluim was the son of Beth (or Áed or Eth), Mormaer of Ross, or instead an illegitimate son of the King Alexander I. Even when it is accepted that Máel Coluim was the son of Áed of Ross, this has raised further questions concerning the background of his kindred and the nature of their claims. The general consensus favors a background in Ross with claims to the Mormaerdom and descent from the Scots royal house, perhaps through Domnall, son of Máel Coluim mac Donnchada, who died in 1085. After Máel Coluim passed away, the title was granted in 1161 by the King of Scotland, William the Lion to Floris III of Holland upon Floris's marriage to William's sister Ada of Huntingdon. However, Floris held the title only in a nominal sense, as he took no active part in the governance of Ross. The title seems not to have been passed on, for in 1291 Floris's descendant is found complaining that the earldom had been deprived from him. 13th Century The true founder of Clan Ross was the famous Ferquhard, of the Ó Beólláin family. Ferquhard was the son of the lay parson of the monastery of Applecross, and was hence known as MacIntagart, meaning "son of the priest". In 1215 the newly crowned King of Scotland Alexander II was forced to suppress a rebellion in Moray and Ross. Ferquhard sided with the king, and captured the rebel leaders, before beheading them and presenting their heads to the king. For this he was knighted and eventually created Earl of Ross around 1226. In 1235, King Alexander invaded Galloway and was saved during battle by Fearchar, who lead the men of Ross. Around 1238, the local Abbey was transferred to a site called New Fearn, which is a short distance from Tain. This has been the burial place place of the Ross Clan Earls and Chiefs and is still in use today. In 1251, Fearchar died and was buried at the new Fearn Abbey with the stone effigy of a warrior marking his grave. His son Uilleam (William) then became Earl of Ross. During this time, Norway controlled the Hebrides and Alexander II was unsuccessfully negotiating their purchase. Long after his death, his son Alexander III recruited Uilleam the Earl of Ross and Kjarnac Macmaaghan to raid the Isle of Skye in the year 1262. They burned towns and churches and slew many people. In retaliation, King Haakon IV of Norway lead over a hundred ships with thousands of men towards an invasion of Scotland. However, while wintering in Orkeny, Haakon died and his fleet returned to Norway. The Hebrides were then sold to Scotland and land near Loch Alsh was granted to the Macmaaghan's descendants; the Matheson's. Uilleam died in 1274 with his son, who also named Uilleam, becoming the next Earl of Ross. In 1284 Uilleam II joined with other Scottish noblemen who acknowledged Margaret, Maid of Norway as heir to King Alexander III. However, she died before ever receiving the honor. When Edward I, the King of England invaded Scotland in 1296, Uilleam II, fought him at the Battle of Dunbar. After the Scottish defeat, Uilleam II was captured and sent to prison in London. Large areas of Ross and Murray then broke out into open revolt led by Andrew Murray and William Wallace. By 1298 after his defeat at Falkirk, Wallace resigned as Guardian of Scotland in favor of Robert the Bruce who persisted thru years of guerrilla warfare and was eventually crowned King of Scotland in 1306. 14th Century In 1303, Uilleam II the Earl of Ross was released from prison and allowed to return to the north. His son and heir Hugh was a favorite of future King Robert the Bruce, who endowed him with many lands. Hugh even married Roberts sister Matilda in 1308 in the Orkney Isles. With Matilda, he had a son who became his successor William III. In 1320, Uilleam II was one of eight earls whose name appears on the Declaration of Arbroath. Uilleam II died in 1323 at Delnay Castle in Ross. William III was in Norway at the time of his father Hugh's death at the Battle of Halidon Hill in 1333. William III returned to Scotland and was at the Siege of Perth in 1339. Aware that the defensive channel of water around the town made it difficult to enter, Ross and his men diverted water and filled the ditch with driftwood, giving them access to the city walls and forcing the English to abandon the city. In 1355, Euphemia, a daughter of Hugh married Robert Stewart, the sole son of the 6th High Steward of Scotland and Marjories Bruce. She would later become Queen of Scotland. Earl William III's only son, also named William, died in 1357 leaving the Earldom with no direct heir. In 1368 a cousin, Hugh Ross of Rarichies was granted the lands of Balnagown, which would eventually become the home of the Ross Clan Chiefs for several hundreds of years. Rarichies, which is south of Tain is located north east of Nigg on the Fearn Peninsula. The direct line of Ferquhard continued until the death of William, 5th Earl of Ross, in 1372 at Delnay Castle. William had two daughters, the eldest of which, Euphemia, married Sir Walter Leslie, who then became the Earl of Ross. This lead to a dispute over control of the earldom of Ross. Eventually, the Earldom was directed to another family. In 1375, construction of Balnagown Castle commenced. 15th Century Clan Ross was lead by Hugh's of Rarichies's son William the 2nd and grandsons Walter the 3rd and Hugh the 4th of Balnagown. In 1411, the Clan fought as Highlanders in support of the Lord of the Isles against an army of Scottish Lowlander who supported the Duke of Albany. The Clan also supplied some of the many Scottish troops supporting France during its Hundred Years war with the English. In 1424, at the Battle of Verneuil though, they suffered heavy causalities. In 1427 the document listing the exemption of payments (privileges) within Tain was destroyed during a clan feud. On April 20, 1439, Hugh the 4th of Balnagown was a member of an inquest into Tain's legal status and witnessed the agreement concerning it between the Churches of Fearn and Tarradale, which was near Dingwall. Hugh, the 4th of Balnagown had numerous sons. His son John became the 5th of Balnagown while William became the 1st of Shandwich. The Shandwich branch was prosperous. Williams son Walter become the 2nd of Shandwick. Walter married 5 different wives (Janet Tulloch, Agnes M'Culloch, Elizabeth Hay, Christian Chisholm & Janet Munro). By Janet Tulloch he had 4 sons. Walters son Donald would continue the Shandwich line, while his son Hugh became associated with Balmachy, which eventually led to the Balblair branch. In 1486 Clan Ross slaughtered a raiding party from the Clan Mackay by locking them in the old Tarbat Church and setting fire to it. This event is known as the Battle of Tarbat. In 1487, the Mackay's gained revenge by killing many of the men of Ross including Chief Alexander the 6th of Balnagown in the Battle of Auldicharish. John, the 5th of Balnagown had four sons; Alexander become the 6th of Balnagown, while Donald obtained the Priesthill estate near Delny. 16th Century In 1522, Andrew Munro from the neighboring Clan is said to have been hanged from Balnagown Castle after being found guilty of many dastardly deeds. Alexander's son David became the 7th of Balnagown with his grandson Walter becoming the 8th of Balnagown. David married twice; first to Hellen Keith and then to Margaret Stewart daughter of the Duke of Albany. David Ross died on May 22, 1527 while Walter Ross was murdered the next year in 1528 by a cousin called Hugh Ross. Walter's brother William eventually became the 1st of Invercharron and his brother Hugh became the 1st of Tolly & Achnacloich (Rosskeen). Walter's son Alexander then became the 9th of Balnagown and thus Clan Chief. In 1553 Alexander ordered the purchase of numerous luxury items such as pepper, ginger, sugar and aniseed as well as chain mail coats and canons. Apparently, he planned to attack some of his neighbors with the canons. Then, being near bankruptcy, he became better known for his violence and lack of scruples in his dealings. Officially, Ross-shire went Presbyterian in 1560. Alexander's son George attended St. Andrews University as a student in 1567 and became the 10th of Balnagown while his other son Nicholas became the 1st of Pitcalnie. George in turn had a son, grandson and great grandson each of whom were all named David, and who all became Chiefs of the Clan. In 1572, Chief Alexander Ross led a raid on the lands of Alexander Innes of the Plaids. Alexander Ross stole crops and livestock and took Innes and his wife hostage forcing them both to sign over much of their lands. Innes's Castle at Cadboll was later attacked with cannons. In 1573, Alexander Ross was imprisoned in Edinburgh (Tantallon castle) for four months and compelled to pay a fine. After being released, he refused to complete payments and lived in defiance of the Government. A 'Fire and Sword' order was issued allowing him to be captured. Because of his fathers poor behavior, his son George signed a letter dated August 2, 1577, urging his father to serve God and be obedient to his King. By 1583, Alexander's behavior had not improved and he was legally denounced as a rebel. Alexander died at Ardmore in 1592 and was buried at Fearn Abbey. Alexander also had a daughter named Katherine, who married the chief of the Munro Clan; Hector Munro. Following some family quarrels, in May 1577 she plotted to kill her husbands oldest son so that his widow could marry her brother George Ross. George's current wife was also to be killed. Katherine conspired with several individuals to procure the necessary poisons. However, after being exposed the group was labeled witches and put on trial. Her accompliaces were convicted and burned to death, but she managed to avoid punishment. In 1583, Robert within the Shandwich branch is born. He goes on to become a Minister in Alness and the father of at least 5 sons. His son William born in 1593 becomes the 5th of Shandwick. 17th Century George Ross, the 10th of Balnagown passed away in 1615 and was buried at Nigg. In 1619, David the 11th of Balnagown also died at Ardmore. The Clan was then led by David the 11th followed by David the 12th. In 1638, he signed the National Covenant at Inverness. In 1650, David the 12th of Balnagown while on the side of the Presbyterian Covenanters helped inflict a heavy defeat on the Royalist Army during the Battle of Carbisdale near Culrain in Sutherland. The following year, at the Battle of Worcester, David the 12th was captured along with eight hundred Clansmen. Most died, but some are shipped to the American colonies as indentured servants. In 1679 the Reverend George Aeneus Ross is born to David Ross of Balblair and his wife Margaret Stroncah. He went to school early and showed promise in Latin. He became a Presbyterian minister and a missionary and eventually traveled to America. In 1689, 100 men of Clan Ross occupied Castle Leod to watch for movement of Jacobite MacKenzies. This castle, which was an inspiration for the Outlander Movie, is located in the Easter Ross village of Strathpeffer west of Dingwall. 18th Century On April 17, 1711, David Ross, the 13th of Balnagowan and Chief of Clan Ross, died without issue while deeply in debt, most of which was inherited from his grandfather and father (supporting the King against uprisings and paying fines). Some of the debt was due to renovations to the castle, mortgaging it to cover debts, repairs to churches, generous assistance to his clansmen, and acting as sheriff of Ross (appointed by King William of Orange to form a garrison to uphold Presbyterianism in the north and to protect Inverness). In 1715, during the Jacobite rising, Clan Ross and others are forced into retreat by Clan MacKenzie during a skirmish at Alness. The Ross's were only armed with sharpened wood poles as they had previously agreed to give up their weapons to the government. Between 1716 to 1745, the Ross's politically controlled Tain while the Munros controlled Dingwall. In 1719, Clan Ross fought for the government at the Battle of Glan Shield where the Jacobites were defeated. During the Jacobite rising of 1715 the chiefs of the Highland Clan Ross supported the British-Hanoverian Government. The rising of 1715 was ultimately defeated at the Battle of Sheriffmuir and another rising had been defeated at the Battle of Glenshiel in 1719, where troops from the Clan Ross had again fought in support of the Government and defeated the likes of the Jacobite Clan Mackenzie. William Mackenzie, 5th Earl of Seaforth, chief of Clan Mackenzie, had been exiled in France for his part in the Jacobite rising of 1715 but had also returned briefly to Scotland to take part in the Jacobite rising of 1719, before returning to exile in France. In 1720 two members of the Clan Ross - William Ross, 6th of Easter Fearn (ex-Provost of Tain) and his brother Robert Ross (Baillie of Tain) - had been appointed factors on the estates of Mackenzie of Seaforth, Chisholm and Glenmoriston. The following year, in 1721, they went on an expedition to collect rents with those estates. The Rosses set off from Inverness with thirty armed men, picking up a further fifty armed men from Bernera Barracks. The Murchison family being a sept of the Clan Mackenzie, Colonel Donald Murchison was Mackenzie of Seaforth's factor who had been collecting rents and sending them to his master in France. While on their journey to Mackenzie of Seaforth's lands in Kintail, the Rosses who were attended by a small company of soldiers met three hundred men of Clan Mackenzie and their allies Clan Macrae in Glen Affric. Historian Alan Mackenzie says that the Rosses were "ambushed" at near Loch Affric. The Mackenzies and Macraes were commanded by Colonel Donald Murchison of Auchtyre and Lochalsh who had been sending the rents to Mackenzie of Seaforth in France. A skirmish took place between the two sides in which the Rosses were outnumbered. William Ross of Easter Fearn was the first to be wounded by fired shots. However, he continued to give orders to his troops to advance and clear the ground of lurking clansmen. They had some success in this respect and were able to proceed to a narrow gorge in Kintail which led into Loch Affric, where they were then ambushed by Murchison's men. William Ross's son Walter Ross and also his nephew William Ross (son of his brother Robert Ross) were also wounded. Realizing that further resistance was useless William Ross met Colonel Murchison between the lines and a discussion took place. The Rosses agreed to return home, promising never again to officiate as factors and as a token of sincerity handed their commissions to Donald Murchison. In 1724, General Wade reported that the estimated combined clan strength of the Rosses and Munros at 700 men. In 1745, Charles Ross the 13th of Hawkhead and 15th of Balnagown, was killed while leading some members of the clan at the Battle of Fontenoy in France. In 1730, in America a son George is born to the Reverend George Aeneas Ross and his wife Anna Catherine. George studied law, became a Lawyer and in 1776 signed the Declaration of Independence. In 1735, his sister Gertrude Ross is born. She marries George Read, who also signed the Declaration of Independence. 19th Century Harmon Pumpelly Read, a descendant of both the Rev George Aeneas Ross and George Read. In the later part of the century, he traveled from New York State to Scotland in order to fully document Ross genealogy. He produced the book "Rossiana", which was eventually published in 1908. ==Clan Branches== Balnagown Shandwick Pitcalnie Balblair Kindeace Inverchasley Calrossie Little Tarrell Aldie Nether Pitkerie Pitkerie Fychie, Little Alland & Eye Invercharron Ankerville and Easterfern Tolly & Arhnacloich Priesthill Logie Easter ==Other Names Associated with the Clan== ==Allied Clans== Munro ==Rival Clans== MacKay MacKenzie Macrea ==Clan Research and Free Space Pages== ==Source Material== https://archive.org/details/rossianapapersdo01read/page/30/mode/2up https://archive.org/details/scotspeeragefoun07paul/page/230/mode/2up?q=Ross ==Image Credits and Acknowledgements== Information below this line should be summarized and incorporated into this Team page.

We descend from the various Rutherford cadets located a short distance from the town of Jedburgh. In theory, all Scottish Rutherfords share roots in Roxburghshire and are divided into family groups called cadets; Edgerston, Hunthill, Hundalee, Fairnington, Mossburnford, Bowland and Fairnilie. Over the last 250 years, we have been dislocated as a people from Scotland in what is called a diaspora or a "scattering of seed". As a result, our Scottish roots and family history may have become distant issues? It is my hope that this web page will help raise our awareness of our ancestor's achievements and make us proud of our heritage as 'The Rutherfords of Roxburghshire'. == The Rutherford Diaspora - 7 waves of emigration== 1 – The 10th century to 1066 – with the battle of Hastings began immigration of Flemish and Norman knights and nobility into England, Wales Scotland and Ireland. The Rutherfords were members of the Flemish warrior class who fought along side of William the Conqueror and settled in Yorkshire, eventually migrating to Roxburghshire, Scotland. 2 – 1066 to 1140 – a period of Norman and Flemish expansion into Scotland through the concerted efforts of King David I of Scotland. 1140 being the first documented appearance of a Rutherford in medieval Roxburghshire. 3 – 1140 to June 24, 1314 - Robert the Bruce defeated King Edward II of England at Bannockburn. After 1314 all families, including the Rutherfords, were required to choose whether they were English or Scottish. The presently accepted family divisions [cadets] in England and Scotland were soon to develop on national rather than familial grounds. 4 – 1314 to 1706/7 - With the ‘Unification of the Parliaments’, a free and independent Scotland ceased to exist. This period is characterized by Rutherford movements into other areas of Scotland, such as, Ayrshire and Perth and south into Northumberland. Also Rutherford Protestants are found in Northern Ireland from the 1640s onward. This was also the period of Rutherford mercenary service in Europe, particularly Sweden, France and the Netherlands. 5 - 1707 to 1781 – The Scottish reformation and the National Covenants took many Rutherford Protestants to Northern Ireland in search of religious freedom and onward to the American colonies. This period is characterized by Rutherford movements to Ireland and America, principally Pennsylvania, Delaware, Virginia, as well as, the Caribbean. 6 - 1788 to the end of WWI - This period is characterized by Rutherford movements to British colonial holdings in Canada, South Africa, New Zealand and Australia. Rutherfords in the USA were moving west with the rest of America. 7 - 1918 to the present - This period is characterized by Rutherford movements domestically within the countries mentioned above, as well as, continued emigration to New Zealand, Australia and Canada from Great Britain. American Rutherfords were moving from the farm to the city.

Other families in Britain who share these roots are the Ypres [Douglas], Furnes, Harnes, Lucy, Hacket and Winter families. The political events of the 11th and 12th centuries within Flanders were to change the lives of these families and push them down a migratory path which began in today's Belgium and ended up in Scotland, Ireland, America, Canada, New Zealand and Australia.

The Normans were not in a position to know about the symbolic devices of Charlemagne's court. It is most likely, therefore, that the origins of English and Scottish armory are not found in Normandy, but in the system adopted by certain ruling families descended from the Emperor Charlemagne, the military and political colossus who ruled the Frankish Empire of northern Europe from 768 to 814. Read more: http://www.hunthill.mysite.com/catalog.html ==Chaplains of the Altar of Saint Kentigern at Jedburgh Abbey== In Jedburgh Abbey sometime prior to the year 1498, Lord James Rutherfurd II of that ilk and his wife, Lady Margaret Rutherfurd nee Erskine, were made patrons of the altar of Saint Kentigern [Saint Mungo]. Jedburgh Abbey is the Rutherfurd family church and the spiritual center of the Clan Rutherford. In those days, of course, all western European Christians and all Rutherfords were Catholic. As Catholics, the veneration of family saints was a common practice and the Rutherford family saint was and is Saint Kentigern. Read more: http://www.hunthill.mysite.com/custom3_5.html ==The Hospital of Saint Mary Magdalene at Rutherford== In the town of Rutherford in Roxburghshire was a small hospital which was maintained by the Rutherford family from the times of the earliest Norman and Flemish presence in the Tweed River Valley. The hospital at Rutherford was dedicated to Saint Mary Magdalene, patron saint of the Knights Templar and was founded by King David I of Scotland (1124-1153). Being a small town, there was no church at Rutherford, only a chapel within the hospital. The chapel churchyard also had a cemetery. Read more: http://www.genealogy.com/forum/surnames/topics/rutherford/6250/ == The Four Rutherford Settlements== The hamlet of Rutherford, Scotland lies just south of the Tweed River between Melrose and Kelso just off highway A699 in Roxburghshire. Rutherford is about 6 to 7 miles north of Jedburgh. There are four locations in Britain that carry the name Rutherford; two in England and two in Scotland and all with historic links to the Rutherfurds of that ilk. Read more: http://www.genealogy.com/forum/surnames/topics/rutherford/6177/ ==The Clan Tartans== For those who care to wear the plaid, the correct Rutherfurd tartan depends on what cadet a clan member comes from. There are two basic choices that could be made; the Home or the Douglas tartan. The Rutherfurds were in agreements of manrent with both clans over the centuries. The present chief of the Clan Home, of which the Clan Rutherfurd is considered a sept, is David Douglas-Home, the 15th Earl of Home. The Douglas-Home family unifies the historical and genealogical heritage of both clans. Earl Douglas-Home should also be chief of the Clan Douglas and a member of the Council of Standing Chiefs, as such. Therefore, the Rutherford choices for tartan hinge on a personal knowledge of genealogy and kin alliance; Douglas and/or Home. Those who don't know their cadet origins should default to the Clan Home tartan. [Home is pronounced “Hume”].

The Scrymgeour family was well established in Fife long before their connection with Dundee. The clan chiefs were later created constables, Earls of Dundee, and hereditary royal standard bearers. Iain Moncreiffe stated that the Scrymgeours were probably descended from the MacDuff Earls of Fife. The Scrymgeours may have claimed their office as standard bearers from their early Celtic origins, as it was customary for Celtic armies to be accompanied by sacred holy relics that were borne by a hereditary keeper. It is therefore possible that the Scrymgeours carried a relic such as a staff of St. Columba which was later replaced by a heraldic banner. THE NAME SCRYMGEOUR OR SCRIMGEOUR COMES FROM THE FRENCH WORD ESCREMSHIERE MEANING FENCER OR SWORDSMAN. THE WARLIKE WORDS SKIRMISH, SKIRMISHER , SPORTING TERMS, SCRIMMAGE, SCRUM , ALL COME FROM THIS NAME. THEY WERE AN ANCIENT CELTIC HIGHLAND AND EAST CLAN.

'''Origins of the clan''' Chalmers, in his work "Caledonia" asserted that the name, in Scotland, is derived from a member of a Norman family of Say that had received lands, in East Lothian, from David I., which became known as Say-toun. This statement is not supported on the Charter record and is generally discounted by modern genealogists. Sir James Balfour Paul notices a fragment of a manuscript held in the British Museum which relates to a younger son of the family holding Seton Hall in Cumberland arriving in Scotland with King Malcolm III., the father to David I.. This family is generally regarded as the source of the Scottish family of Seton. Seton Hall is in the parish of Hinderwell near Whitby, Yorshire. At the time of the last Seton it was part of the Barony of Stokeley in Yorkshire, held to William de Latimer. It is mentioned in the Domesday Book (relating to Yorkshire) as a manor, with a church. The name appears as a territorial surname c. 1086 and an Osbert de Seton held the lands between 1139 and 1148. The last Seton to hold Seton Hall, held as quarter of a knights fee, was [[Seton-13|Sir Christopher de Seton]], saviour of King Robert Bruce. When he was executed, in 1306, as a traitor (to England; he was fighting for Scotland) his lands were forfeit, although his mother was allowed to remain for her life. The Scottish family had become firmly established in East Lothian c. 1140, and an Alexander de Seaton appears in the Charter record c. 1150 as witness to a Charter of lands in Roxburghshire. The first Charter on record for the lands of Seaton, Winton and Winchelburgh appears as a confirmation to Philip de Seton, dated to between 1177 and 1185, where it is stated that they were his father's lands. '''Wars of Scottish Independence''' [[Seton-13|Sir Christopher Seton]] (d.1306), from the English line of Seton, married a sister of Robert the Bruce. In March, 1306 he was a witness at Bruce's coronation in Scone. Seton is also have said to have saved the king's life when he was unhorsed during the Battle of Methven in June, 1306. Seton was captured after the battle by the English and was executed in Dumfries as a traitor. He was the last of the main English family and the original lands of Seton forfeit. In 1320, [[Seton-206|Sir Alexander Seton]], signed the Declaration of Arbroath, asserting Scottish independence. Sir Alexander Seton was later Governor of Berwick from 1327-1333, when the town surrendered to the English. The English had already hanged Seton's son, who they held as a hostage. Sir Alexander lost another son at the siege when he drowned while attempting to burn the English ships. His granddaughter, [[Seton-205|Margaret]], who was abducted by Alan de Wyntoun (Winton), a paternal cadet of the Seton family, succeeded to the estates. Their son, William, will assume the Seton name and titles. '''15th and 16th centuries''' William Seton, 1st Lord Seton attended the coronation of Robert II of Scotland. One of Lord Seton's sons, Alexander, was given the marriage of Elizabeth, daughter and heiress of the deceased Sir Adam Gordon, Knight, Lord of Gordon. From this line come Earls and Marquesses of Huntly and Dukes of Gordon, the Earls of Sutherland after the year 1500, the Setons of Meldrum, Touch, Abercorn, Pitmedden and Mounie, and the Gordons of Gight, Letterfourie, Cluny, and many others. George Seton, 5th Lord of Seton, was a favourite of James IV of Scotland and died with him at the Battle of Flodden. The Setons were supporters of Mary, Queen of Scots and, in 1557, George Seton, 7th Lord of Seton, attended the queen's wedding to the Dauphin of Viennois. Seton then became her Privy Councillor, Master of the Household and a close personal friend. Seton helped the queen escape the night of the murder of her secretary, David Rizzio, first to Seton Castle in East Lothian and then to Dunbar. When the queen's husband, Henry Stuart, Lord Darnley, was killed, she again turned to Seton for help and it was in Seton Castle that the marriage contract with James Hepburn, 4th Earl of Bothwell was sealed. In 1568, when the queen was imprisoned in Loch Leven Castle, it was Seton, with 200 lancers, who aided her escape. After the queen was defeated at the Battle of Langside in 1568, Seton retired to Flanders, where he tried to enlist in foreign service. Two years later, he returned to Scotland and was one of the judges in the trial of the Earl of Morton, who was accused of complicity in the murder of Darnley. Seton was succeeded by his second son, Robert, who James VI of Scotland created Earl of Winton in 1600. '''17th and 18th centuries''' The Earl of Winton's brother, Alexander Seton, was created Lord President of the Court of Session, which is Scotland's highest judicial office, and later Chancellor of Scotland. In 1606 Alexander Seton was created Earl of Dunfermline. The Setons were staunch Jacobites, and James Seton, 4th Earl of Dunfermline, forfeited his title for supporting John Graham, 1st Viscount Dundee in 1689, as did George Seton, 5th Earl of Winton, after the Jacobite rising of 1715. Another branch of the clan, the Setons of Abercorn, were created Baronets of Nova Scotia in 1663. Sir Alexander Seton, 1st Baronet was appointed to the Supreme Court bench in 1677 and was created a Baronet of Nova Scotia in 1684 '''Adapted from the Great Historical Families of Scotland (Electric Scotland):''' [http://www.electricscotland.com/webclans/families/setons.htm] The Setons are among the most ancient and illustrious of the great houses of Scotland, and are proverbially said to have the reddest blood in the kingdom. In consequence of a remarkable number of other families of the highest rank having sprung from their main stock, the heads of the house are termed ‘Magnae Nobilitatis Domini;’ and from their intermarriage upon four different occasions with the royal family, they obtained the addition to their shield of the royal or double tressure. Their earliest motto, ‘Hazard yet forward,’ is descriptive of their military ardour and dauntless courage. They were conspicuous throughout their whole history for their loyalty and firm attachment to the Stewart dynasty, in whose cause they perilled and lost their titles and extensive estates. SECKER DE SEYE, son of Dugdale de Sey, by a daughter of De Quincy, Earl of Winchester, the founder of this illustrious family, was of Norman descent, like most of the progenitors of the other great houses of Scotland, and settled in Scotland in the days of David I., from whom he obtained a grant of lands in East Lothian, to which he gave his own name—Seytun, the dwelling of Sey. Note: This is now generally regarded as incorrect. His son, ALEXANDER DE SETUNE, or SETON, was proprietor of the estate of Winchburgh, in Linlithgowshire, as well as of Seton and Wintoun, in East Lothian, and his son, PHILIP DE SETUNE, received a grant of these lands from William the Lion in 1169. The fourth in descent from him was the noble patriot [[Seton-13|SIR CHRISTOPHER]], or CHRISTALL SEYTON, who married Lady Christian Bruce, sister of King Robert Bruce, and widow of Gratney, Earl of Mar. Note: This is incorrect; the father of Sir Christopher is well recorded as Sir John Seton of Seton, Yorkshire. The ‘Gallant Seton,’ as he is termed by the author of the Lord of the Isles, was one of the earliest and most strenuous supporters of his illustrious brother-in-law, and was present at his coronation at Scone, 27th of March, 1306. At the Battle of Methven, on the 13th of June following, Bruce, who had ventured his person in that conflict like a knight of romance, was unhorsed by Sir Philip Mowbray, but was remounted by Sir Christopher, who greatly signalised himself in the conflict by his personal valour. [Sir Christopher is said to have been a man of gigantic stature. His two-handed sword, measuring four feet nine inches, is in the possession of George Seton, Esq., of the Register Office, representative of the Setons of Cariston.] He made his escape from that fatal field, and shut himself up in Lochdoon Castle, in Ayrshire, where he was betrayed to the English, through means (according to Barbour) of one Macnab, ‘a disciple of Judas,’ in whom the unfortunate knight reposed entire confidence. Sir Christopher was conveyed to Dumfries, where he was tried, condemned, and executed; and his brother John shared the same fate at Newcastle. Another, named [[Seton-206|ALEXANDER SETON]], succeeded to the estates of the family, and adhered to their patriotic principles, for his name is appended, along with those of other leading nobles, to the famous letter to the Pope, in 1320, asserting the independence of Scotland. He was rewarded by King Robert Bruce with liberal grants of land, including the manor of Tranent, forfeited by the powerful family of De Quincy, Earls of Winchester and High Constables of Scotland, from whom, as we have seen, he was descended in the female line. This Sir Alexander has been immortalised in the pages of Sir Walter Scott for the conspicuous part which he took in the defence of his country against the invasion of the English after the death of Robert Bruce. He was Governor of the town of Berwick when it was besieged by Edward III. of England in 1333. Though the garrison was neither numerous nor well appointed they made a gallant defence, and succeeded in sinking and destroying by fire a great part of the English fleet. The siege was then converted into a blockade, and as the supplies at length began to fail and starvation was imminent, the Governor agreed to capitulate by a certain day unless succours were received before that time, and gave hostages, among whom was his own son, Thomas, for the fulfilment of these stipulations. Before the appointed period expired, Sir William Keith and some other knights, with a body of Scottish soldiers, succeeded in throwing themselves into the town. The main body of the Scottish army, however, after a fruitless attempt to provoke the English to quit their lines and give them battle, marched into Northumberland, and Edward then peremptorily insisted that the town should be surrendered. The besieged refused to comply with this demand, asserting that they had received succours both of men and provisions. The vindictive and cruel monarch, enraged at this refusal, caused Thomas Seton—a tall and good-looking youth, like all his race [The Setons have from the earliest times been noted for their lofty stature. ‘Tall and proud, like the Setons,’ was long a common saying in Scotland.]—to be hanged before the gate of the town; so near, it is said, that the unhappy father could witness the execution from the walls. The other two sons (he actually had three other sons) of Sir Alexander Seton both fell in their country’s cause—one in opposing the landing of Edward Baliol, near Kinghorn, 6th August, 1332; the other was drowned in an attempt to destroy the English fleet at Berwick, in sight of his father, in July, 1333. Sir Alexander sought refuge from his sorrows and troubles in a hospital of the order of St. John of Jerusalem (is a falacy; he was a Prior of the Order and Master of Tiophichen), and his daughter Margaret became the heiress of his extensive estates. She married (she was actually abducted, ravished and kidnapped, then married) ALAN DE WYNTOUN, who is believed to have been a cadet of her own family, for Philip Seton obtained a charter of the lands of Wyntoun from William the Lion. This marriage led to a sanguinary contest with rival and disappointed suitors, called ‘the Wyntoun’s war,’ which, according to Wyntoun, the metrical chronicler (and likely relative), caused more than a hundred ploughs to be laid aside from labour. Alan de Wyntoun died in the Holy Land, leaving a daughter, who became Countess of Dunbar, and had an only son, SIR WILLIAM SETON, of whom it is recorded that ‘he was the first creatit and made lord in the Parliament, and he and his posteritie to have ane voit yairin, and be callit Lordis.’ (which is not correct; he was always ever known as Lord of Seton and a Baron, it will be his great grandson [[Seton-163|George]] that is raised as Lord Seton) The younger son of this powerful baron married the heiress of the great family of GORDON, and became the progenitor of the Dukes of Gordon and Marquises of Huntly, as well as of the Setons of Touch, hereditary armour-bearers to the King; the Setons of Meldrum, of Abercorn, of Pitmedden, [Colonel Seton, of the 74th Highlanders, whose heroic conduct at the shipwreck of the Birkenhead, where he perished, excited universal admiration, was a cadet of the Pitmedden family.] and other branches of the house. He fought with the hereditary valour of the Setons at the memorable battle of Harlaw in 1411, and in the wars in France in 1421.

'' ----- '''The Official Seton Family Website:''' ''[http://www2.thesetonfamily.com:8080/]'' '''Arms:''' The arms of the family of Seton are not recorded in the Lyon Register. They appear in history as: Sir Alexander de Seton, c. 1216, bore on his seal three crescents, with a label of three points, clearly a son. [[Seton-206|Sir Alexander Seton]] that signed the Declaration of Arbroath in 1320 bore three crescents on a bend. His seal is still intact. Sir Alexander de Seton, in 1337, has the three crescents within the double tressure. Sir William de Seton, depicted on Armorial de Gelre, c, 1360, appears as D'or, à trois croissants de gueules, dans un double trêcheur fleuronné et contre-fleuronné du même. These arms are shown on this page. George Seton, 2nd Lord Seton, c. 1451, bore quarterly: 1st and 4th, three crescents without the tressure, 2nd and 3rd, three garbs for Buchan (although noticed on some sources as Comyn it was Buchan, his wife was daughter to the Earl of Buchan; Comyns had adopted the arms (three garbs) when they held Buchan). 1st Earl of Winton, bore the same coat as above but on one seal the 1st and 4th quarters have the tressure, while on another the tressure surrounds the four quarters. Sir David Lindsay blazons the arms of Lord Seton as 1st and 4th, or, three crescents within a royal tressure gules; 2nd and 3rd, azure, three garbs or. '''Crest:''' The Armorial de Gelre provides an antelope's (or possibly goat) head ermine for the Seton crest, and William de Seton in 1384 bore a ram's head on his seal. The second Lord Seton bore two spears erect on a chapeau. Later, the crest became a dragon vert spouting fire, wings elevated, charged with a star or (sometimes argent). Supporters: The 2nd Lord Seton bore two lions rampant guardant: but the ordinary supporters were two mertricks (or foxes) collared and chained or, the collars charged with three crescents gules. '''Motto:''' Nisbet provides that the old motto of the family was "Invia virtuti via nulla" and places it in the compartment below the shield. Across the supporters was placed a scroll with the following quotation from Horace: "Intaminatis fulget honoribus". Commonly noticed as "Hazard yet forward" of more simply "Yet Forward". '''Slogan:''' Hazard yet forward '''Region:''' Lowlands '''District:''' East Lothian '''Plant badge:''' Yew '''Names associated with the clan:''' Ceatoun, Ceton, Cetone, Seaton, Seatonne, Seatown, Seitone, Seitoune, Sethun, Seton, Setone, Setoun, Setoune, Setowun, Setton, Settone, Settoun, Setun, Seytoun, Seytoune '''Confusion regarding arms''' There is confusion regarding the arms of the family as there is confusion regarding the families. Stodart, using Nisbet as source, provides that "Sir Christopher Seton,... (who married Christian Bruce, sister of Robert I.), placed the double tressure round his paternal crescents on account of his royal descent, as on his seal in 1337; and Nisbet specially refers to the presence of the tressure in the Seton achievement on the double ground of "maternal descent and merit". However he is incorrect as Sir Christopher was dead in 1306 and he refers to another. Stodart notes this "This coat, however, is not to be found on any seal used by the successive representatives of the family, nor does it appear in any known heraldic MS." This is true as Christopher died without heir. However the augmentation to the arms is clear and obviously a result of the service provided to Bruce by Christopher Seton. What is also apparent, if Nisbet was accurate at all, is that the arms of Seton of Hinderwell, in Yorkshire, and those of Seton in East Lothian are of the same family source as they bear the three crescents. ----

==Clan Shaw== Part of this category represents the lowland family of Shaw that appeared in Lanarkshire. The Shaw family around Sauchie, Greenock and Lanarkshire/ Renfrew are a separate family from the Highland families. However researchers should not discount the possibility of marriage between the two branches. The first mention comes from a Reginald Shaw who donated land to the monks of Paisley in 1282. This is recorded in the records of Paisley . Further reference is added in the book ' History of Renfrewshire' written in 1710 by George Crawford. Digitized copies can be found online. The first record has James Shaw of Greenock , originally Sauchie, marrying a Mary DeAnnaud Daughter or Grand daughter to Galbraith of Greenock. The marriage was some time before 1431. There are two recorded sons, John, who inherited the Greenock lands and Sauchie, and an older brother who died without issue. The younger James ( for the purposes of this narrative, James the second) Sir James the third is recorded of having one child, James who was born some time around 1430 and died in 1491. He is recorded as being captain of Stirling Castle, less than a day's ride from Sauchie. ------ Adapted from https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Clan_Shaw_of_Tordarroch '''Origins''' The progenitor of Clan Shaw is believed to be Shaw MacDuff, a younger son of Duncan, the Thane or Earl of Fife, who was a descendant of Kenneth MacAlpin. Shaw MacDuff was made Keeper of Inverness Castle, which was a strategic royal castle, by Malcolm IV of Scotland. His heirs were known as the Mhic anToiseach, which means the sons of the Thane, and they supported the royal government, consolidating their power around Inverness. Shaw's grandson was Shaw MacWilliam, who in 1263 acquired lands at Rothiemurchus. His son was Farquhard, who, due to problems with their powerful neighbors, Clan Comyn, made an alliance with Clan Donald by marrying Mora, daughter of Aonghas Mór, Lord of Islay. Farquhard's son was Angus Mackintosh, 6th chief of Clan Mackintosh, who married Eva, daughter of the chief of Clan Chattan (Chattan Confederation). Eva's second son, John-Angus, was the first chief of Clan Shaw. '''Wars of Scottish Independence''' The feud with Clan Comyn brought the Chattan Confederation support from Robert the Bruce, and they fought for him at the Battle of Bannockburn in 1314. They also took part in the Scottish invasions of England in 1318 and 1319. '''14th century''' The second chief of Clan Shaw was Shaw Macghillechrist Mhic Iain, who was a great grandson of Angus Mackintosh and Eva. He was known as Sgorfhiachlach, which means bucktooth and was raised with his cousins at Moy, seat of the Mackintoshes. It seems certain that he was present at the Battle of Invernahavon against Clan Cameron in 1370. In 1391 Shaw was elected Captain of Clan Chattan for a raid on Angus under Alexander Stewart, Earl of Buchan, who was known as the "Wolf of Badenoch". In 1396, Shaw was appointed to lead Clan Chattan at the Battle of the North Inch, a trial by combat against Clan Cameron, which took place in front of an audience that included Robert III of Scotland and the Dauphin of France. '''15th, 16th and 17th centuries''' The grandson of Shaw Bucktooth was Aedh, who settled at Tordarroch in 1468. He occupied a strategic site near the River Nairn and he and his followers became known as the "Clan Ay". On 22 May 1543, Angus MacRobert of Tordarroch was one of the signatories of a band of union and management of Clan Chattan, signed at Inverness. Shaw of Tordarroch signed a similar agreement on 4 April 1609. The clan prospered and Duncan Shaw, Laird of Crathienaird. rose to become Chamberlain to the Earl of Mar by 1691. '''18th century and Jacobite risings''' On 15 September 1715, Mackintosh of Borlum called out Clan Chattan to fight for the Jacobite cause in the Jacobite rising of 1715. The Shaw contingent was led by Robert :The Younger" of Tordarroch and his brother Angus. The Shaw contingent was noted for its discipline, equipment and bravery. Robert and Angus were both imprisoned after the rising had collapsed and Robert died soon after being released in 1718. Angus was transported to Virginia but was pardoned in 1722. Angus never recovered from his experience or the death of his brother and, as a result, he refused to call out his clan for the Jacobite rising of 1745. However, many Shaws rallied to support the Jacobite Stuarts such as James Shaw of Crathienaird. Lady Anne Farquharson-MacKintosh called out the entire Clan Chattan to fight for the Jacobites, and two of her most trusted lieutenants were James Shaw and John Shaw of Kinrara. '''Chief''' In 1970, Major Iain Shaw of Tordarroch was recognized by the Lord Lyon, King of Arms, as Chief of Clan Shaw. He was the father of the present chief in an unbroken line of continuity back to the ancient Earls of Fife. '''Clan Castles''' Doune of Rothiemurchus, two miles south of Aviemore in Strathspey, is an 18th Century mansion which replaced an earlier castle. The lands were held by the Shaws, Mackintoshes and the Dallases of Cantray. James Shaw of Rothiemurchus was killed at the Battle of Harlaw in 1411. Tordarroch Castle, seven miles south of Inverness, was once a strong tower, but little survives. It was held by the Shaws from 1468. The castle was later replaced by Tordarroch House.

'' ----- Adapted from http://www.electricscotland.com/webclans/stoz/shaw2.html The origin of the Shaws, at one time a most important clan of the Chattan confederation, has been connected with the Mackintoshes. The tradition of the Mackintoshes and Shaws is "unvaried", says the Rev. W G Shaw of Forfar; at least from and after 1396, a race of Shaws existed in Rothiemurchus, whose progenitor was the Shaw Mor who commanded the section of the clan represented by the Mackintoshes on the Inch. The tradition of the Shaws is, that he was Shaw, the son of James, the son or descendant of Farquhar; the tradition of the Macintoshes - that he was Shaw-mac-Gilchrist-mac-Ian-mac-Angus-mac-Farquhar - Farquhar being the ancestor according to both traditions, from whom he took the name (according to Wyntoun) of Sha Farquharis Son. The tradition of a James Shaw who 'had bloody contests with the Comyns', which tradition is forfeited by that of the Comyns, may very likely refer to the James, who, according to the genealogies both of the Shaws and Mackintoshes, was the son of Shaw Mor. Mr Shaw of Forfar, who is well entitled to speak with authority on the subject, maintains "that prior to 1396, the clan now represented by the Mackintoshes, had been (as was common amongst the clans) sometimes designated as the clan Shaw, after the successive chiefs of that name, especially the first, and sometimes as the clan of the Mac-an-Toisheach, i.e., of the Thane's son. Thus, from its first founder, the great clan of the Isles was originally called the clan Cuin, or race of Constantine. Afterwards, it was called the clan Colla, from his son Coll, and latterly the clan Donald, after one of his descendants of that name. So the Macleans are often called clan Gilleon after their founder and first chief; and the Macphersons, the clan Muirich, after one of the most distinguished in their line of chiefs. The Farquharsons are called clan Fhiunla, after their great ancestor, Finlay Mor. There is nothing more probable, therefore - I should say more certain - than that the race in after times known as Mackintoshes, should at first have been as frequently designated as Na Si'aich, 'The Shaws', after the Christian name of their first chief, as Mackintoshes after his appellative description or designation. It is worthy of remark, that the race of Shaws is never spoken of in Gaelic as the 'clan Shaw', but as 'Na Si'aich' - The Shaws, or as we would say Shawites. We never hear of Mac-Shaws - sons of Shaw, but of 'Na Si'aich - The Shaws'. Hence prior to 1396, when a Shaw so distinguished himself as to found a family, under the wing of his chief, the undivided race, so to speak, would sometimes be called 'Mackintoshes', or followers of the Thane's sons, sometimes the clan Chattan, the generic name of the race, sometimes 'clan Dhugaill', (Quehele) after Dougall-Dall, and sometimes 'Na Si'aich', the Shaws or Shawites, after the numerous chiefs who more the name of Shaw in the line of descent. Hence the claim of both Shaws and Mackintoshes to the occupancy of Rothiemurchus. After 1396, the term Na Si'aich was restricted, as all are agreed, to the clan developed out of the other, through the prowess of Shaw Mor". Shaw "Mor" Mackintosh, who fought at Perth in 1396, was succeeded by his son James, who fell at Harlaw in 1411. Both Shaw and James had held Rothiemurchus only as tenants of the chief of Mackintosh, but James's son and successor, Alister "Ciar" (i.e., brown), obtained from Duncan, 11th of Mackintosh, in 1463-4, his right of possession and tack. In the deed by which David Stuart, Bishop of Moray, superior of the lands, confirms this disposition of Duncan, and gives Alister the fen, Alister is called "Allister Kier Mackintosh". This deed is dated 24th September 1464. Allthe deeds in which Alister is mentioned call him Mackintosh, not Shaw, thus showing the descent of the Shaws from the Mackintoshes, and that they did not acquire their name of Shaw until after Alister's time. Alister's grandson, Alan, in 1539, disposed his right to Rothiemurchus to Edom Gordon, reserving only his son's liferest. Alan's grandson of the same name was outlawed for the murder of his stepfather, some fifty years later, and compelled to leave the country. Numerous Shaws are, however, still to be found in the neighbourhood of Rothiemurchus, or who can trace their descent from Alister Kier. Besides the Shaws of Rothiemurchus, the Shaws of Tordarroch in Strathnairn, descended from Adam, younger brother of Alister Kier, were a considerable family; but, like their cousins, they no longer occupy their original patrimony. Tordarroch was held in wadset of the chiefs of Mackintosh, and was given up to Sir AEneas Mackintosh in the end of last century by its holder at the time, Colonel Alexander Shaw, seventh in descent from Adam. Argus MacBean vic Robert of Tordarroch signed the Bond of 1609 already mentioned. His great-grandsons, Robert and AEneas, took part during their father's life in the rebellion of 1715; both were taken prisoners at Preston, and were confined in Newgate, the elder brother dying during his imprisonment. The younger AEneas, succeeded his father, and in consideration of his taking no part in the '45, was made a magistrate, and received commissions for his three sons, the second of whom, AEneas, rose to the rank of major-general in the army. Margaret, daughter of AEneas of Tordarroch, was wife of Farquhar Macgillivray of Dalcrombie, one of the three officers of the Mackintosh regiment who escaped from Culloden. AUneas was succeeded by his eldest son, Colonet Alexander Shaw, lieutenant-governor of the Isle of Man under the crown. He gave up the wadset of Tordarroch to Sir AEneas Mackintosh, and died in 1811. From the four younger sons of Alister Kier descended respectively the Shaws of Dell (the family of the historian of Moray, the Rev Laclan Shaw); of Dalnivert, the representation of it devolved in the last century on a female, who married - Clark; the Farquharsons, who in time acquired more importance than the Shaws; and the Shaws of Harris, who still retain a tradition of their ancestor, Iver MacAlister Ciar. ------------------- Source: William G.

William de Sancto Claro, whose father had come over with William the Conqueror in 1066, came to Scotland with his wife. There were, however, other members of the St. Clair family who came north also. They became established near Edinburgh and were granted the barony of Rosslyn. Sir William de St Clair was involved in negotiating the marriage of Yolande de Dreux with King Alexander III. Sir William signed the "Ragman Roll" of King Edward I of England in 1296. His heir, Henry, was initially loyal to the English king but then supported Robert the Bruce and fought at the Battle of Bannockburn. The king granted him lands in the Pentlands, south of Edinburgh. Sir Henry Sinclair died in Spain with Sir James Douglas as they took the heart of Robert the Bruce on a crusade. Through marriage, the earldom of Orkney was obtained. Henry de St Clair was a notable seaman and probably reached North America a 100 years before Columbus. His son surrendered the Orkney earldom and was created Earl of Caithness in 1445 by King James II. It was Henry who constructed Rosslyn Chapel with its ornate carvings and it was around this time that the spelling "Sinclair" came into use, usually pronounced in Scotland as "Sinkler". Sinclair was the 79th most frequent surname at the General Register Office in 1995 - but in Orkney it is easily the most frequently found surname.. find one here [[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Category:Scottish_clans 1]] or here [[http://www.electricscotland.com/webclans/index.html 2]] '''See Also:''' {| border="1" class="wikitable" !

The name most likely comes from "Saint-Omer," a town about 20 miles south of Dunkirk at the North of France. '''History of the name''' The name itself comes from a French village of the same name in Normandy, France. In 1066 the Lord of Somerville, Sir Gualtier de Somerville joined William the conqueror on his invasion of England, for his support Sir Gaultier de Somerville was given land in the North of England. By the 12th century, the Somervilles were granted land and title of lord in Scotland and were at one time among the noble families of Scotland. Alternatively, Somerville can also be a Scottish or Irish clan surname. The Irish House of Somerville began when William Somerville came to Ireland in 1690. William was an Episcopalian minister forced to flee from his manse when it was attacked by Covenanters. William brought his sons William and Thomas with him to Ireland. While the younger William returned to Scotland, his brother Thomas stayed in Ireland. Thomas would be educated at Trinity College in Dublin eventually earning a BA in 1711. He entered the church of his father and was ordained a minister at Cloyne Cathedral in 1715. It was in 1732 that Thomas was made the rector of Myross and Castlehaven. It was his son Thomas who by becoming a very successful merchant with Newfoundland and the West Indies was able to build up the Irish house of Somerville to the ranks of landed gentry a class out of which the Somerville clan had dropped for five generations.

During the Norman invasion of England in 1066, Sir Gaulter de Somerville accompanied the Duke of Normandy, William the Conqueror. William de Somerville, the second son of Sir Gaulter, came to Scotland with David I and was created Lord of Carnwath, receiving the lands near Carnwath in Clydesdale. He died around 1142 and was buried at Melrose Abbey. Another William de Somerville was said to have killed the last serpent in Scotland, and went on to obtain the lands of Linton from Malcolm IV, around 1174. He later became Chief Falconer to the king and Sheriff of Roxburgh. At the Battle of Largs in 1263, a Sir William de Somerville, fifth of that name, fought for Alexander II, driving back the Norse invasion. The William de Somerville who fought at Largs, his son, Sir Thomas, was among the many Scottish nobles who were pressured into signing the Ragman Roll, pledging allegiance to England’s Edward I in 1296. However, in 1297, he joined Sir William Wallace in Scotland’s fight for independence. The peerage of Lord Somerville was created for Sir Thomas, and probably in 1435, though this is uncertain. The 3rd Lord Somerville, John, successfully fought the English at the Battle of Sark in October, 1448, where he was wounded. He was also present at the siege of Roxburgh in 1460, where James II was killed. John, the 4th Lord, died in 1523 without issue and his brother, Hugh, succeeded him. He was taken prisoner after the rout at Solway Moss in 1542. He was later released. His son James – later the 6th Lord Somerville – opposed the Reformation and voted against the Scots Confession (a Confession of Faith) proposed in Parliament, which was drawn up by John Knox in 1560. James fought on the side of Mary I at the Battle of Langside, on May 13,1568, where he was severely wounded. Hugh Somerville, who became 7th Lord in 1569, also supported Queen Mary, but his allegiance changed and went to her son, James VI. Somerville was then appointed a Privy Councillor by the King. Being in the King’s favor, the Somervilles started living beyond their means, accumulating a big debt and causing them to sell their Carnwath estates. After the 1606 Union of the Crowns, the Scots nobility was ranked, however, the name Somerville did not appear. By 1723, the Somerville peerage was eventually acknowledged by the House of Lords and John, the 13th Lord Somerville, stood for election as a representative peer of Scotland. He built the elegant House of Drum which still stands on the outskirts of Edinburgh. Other noted Somervilles include Mary Fairfax Somerville (1780-1872), from Jedburgh, who was a science writer and mathematician as well as a great pioneer of women’s education. Oxford University’s Somerville College, which was established in 1879, is named after her. ==Clan Branches== ===Other Names Associated with the Clan=== ==Allied Clans== ===Rival Clans=== ==Clan Research and Free Space Pages== ===Source Material=== ===Image Credits and Acknowledgements===

The clan is recognised by Court of the Lord Lyon1, however it does not have a clan chief recognised by the Lord Lyon King of Arms. Because the clan has no chief it can be considered an armigerous clan; however the Earls of Gallowayhttps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Earl_of_Galloway are now considered to be the principal branch of this clan, and the crest and motto of The Earls of Galloway's arms are used in the Clan Stewart crest badge. The Court of the Lord Lyon recognises two other 'Stewart' clans, Clan Stuart of Bute and Clan Stewart of Appin. Clan Stuart of Bute is the only 'Stewart' clan at present which has a "recognised" chief2. ==Clan Branches== ===Other Names Associated with the Clan=== [[https://www.wikitree.com/wiki/Space:Stewart_Name_Study#Related_Surnames_and_Surname_Variants ]] ==Allied Clans== ===Rival Clans=== ==Clan Research and Free Space Pages== *[https://www.stewartsociety.org/ The Stewart Society] *[[Space:Stewart_Name_Study |Stewart Name Study]] ===Source Material=== * Stewart Clan Magazine; https://archive.org/stream/stewartclanmaga00incgoog/stewartclanmaga00incgoog_djvu.txt * Scottish Family Histories. https://archive.org/details/scottishfamilyhistory?query=Stewarts&sort=-downloads ===Image Credits and Acknowledgements=== *A special thank you to [[Stuart-531|Allan Stuart]] for his dedication and contributions to the Clan Stewart research included here.

Sir John's younger son, James Stewart, was killed in 1333 at the Battle of Halidon Hill. His grandson married the heiress of the Lord of Lorne (chief of Clan MacDougall). On his marriage he became the first Stewart Lord of Lorne. The Stewarts of Appin supported the royalist cause during the Civil War of the 17th century and also supported the deposed Stuart monarchs during the Jacobite rising of 1715 and Jacobite rising of 1745. Sir James was the grandfather of John Stewart of Innermeath, who, through marriage of his brother Robert Stewart of Durisdeer to Isabel MacDougall, daughter of John Gallda MacDougall, Lord of Lorne, aquired the Lordship of Lorne. The Lordship of Lorne passed down for 2 more generations to Sir John Stewart, the 2nd Stewart Lord of Lorne and then to his brother Walter, who, on becoming the 1st Stewart Lord of Innermeath resigned the Lordship of Lorn. Walters nephew Dugald (Johns son) became the First Laird1 of Appin and founded the Clan Stewart of Appinhttps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Clan_Stewart_of_Appin. of which he was also the Clan Chief.https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Scottish_clan_chief Most of the Stewarts of Appin did not use the surname “Stewart”. The leadership of the Clan was held by the Chief and his many cousins, who were tacksmen who held minor estates in Appin as cadets of the chief. Many of the clansmen were descended from families which had lived in Appin long before the Stewarts arrived, including McColls, Clan MacLea, McQuorquodales and the Clan Carmichael. '''Clan Conflicts''' The Stewarts of Appin were traditional allies of the Clan MacLaren of Balquhidder, the Clan Cameron of Lochiel and the Clan MacDonald of Glencoe (or MacIans) of Glencoe. They were inveterate enemies of the Clan Campbell of Argyll and Breadalbane. {{Image|file=Stewart-10712-1.jpg |align=r |size=m |caption=Effigy of the Wolf of Badenoch Alexander Stewart. }} In 1403 a band of Highlanders, said to have been the Clan Stewart of Appin led by Alexander Stewart, the son of the Wolf of Badenochhttps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alexander_Stewart,_Earl_of_Buchan murdered Sir Malcolm Drummond, chief of the Clan Drummond. In 1497 some of the Clan MacLaren stole cattle from the Braes of Lochaber from the Clan MacDonald of Keppoch. The MacDonalds followed them and overtook them at a place called Glenorchy where a battle took place. The MacDonalds won and recovered their cattle. However the MacLarens then looked for assistance from Dugel Stuart of Appin. Another battle then took place where the MacLarens were now joined by the Stuarts against the MacDonalds. During the battle Dugel, the chief of the Clan Stewart of Appin and the Clan MacDonald of Keppoch chief were both killed. Later during the Civil war the Clan Stewart of Appin supported the royalist, James Graham, 1st Marquess of Montrose at the Battle of Inverlochy (1645), the Battle of Auldearn and the Battle of Kilsyth. After James VII was deposed in 1688, the Stewarts of Appin supported the deposed [[:Category: House of Stuart |House of Stuart]]. Later still during the Jacobite rebellions the Stewarts of Appin naturally supported the Jacobite risings and sent men to fight in both the Jacobite rising of 1715 and Jacobite rising of 1745. At the Battle of Culloden in 1746, the Appin Regiment suffered 92 killed and 65 wounded out of a fighting force of approximately 300. Charles Stewart of Ardsheal led the men of the regiment (which included men of ~19 other clans) most notably Clan MacLaren during the rising of 1745. Ardsheal later escaped Scotland to meet his family in Europe where he spent the rest of his days. '''The Daoine Uaisle''' The daoine uaisle (Gaelic: noble people), as they were known into the 18th Century are synonymous with the term "Tacksmen" and the modern designation of "Cadet." These were/are the gentry of the clan (all clans incorporated these positions). Normally related in one form or another by birth to the Chief, these men controlled areas, or "tacks", within the greater clan lands. Rents were collected in various forms and rents from the daoine uaisle were in turn paid to the Chief within some clans, and not in others. The primary "Cadets" of Appin are Ardsheal, Achnacone, Fasnacloich, Invernahyle, and Strathgarry. The major branches of Appin stem from the sons of Alan Stewart, 3rd of Appin. Originally they comprised John, 1st of Strathgarry, Dugald, 1st of Achnacone, James, 1st of Fasnacloich and Alexander, 1st of Invernahyle. Ardshiel, the branch the Chief hails from, was given to John, 1st of Ardshiel by his father, John Stewart, 5th of Appin. Andrew Francis Stewart of Lorn, Appin and Ardsheal, 17th of Appin & 12th of Ardsheal, the current Chief of Appin is descended from Charles Stewart, 7th of Ardsheal who ascended as Chief upon the death of Dugald Stewart, the 10th Chief, who died without sons in 1769. Today Andrew Francis Stewart holds the title of both "Appin" (denoting the Chief) and Ardsheal. '''Adherents and clansmen''' The Adherents or "septs" (a modern term) of Appin stem from families that lived in Lorn prior to the Stewarts gaining the Lordship and the clan coalescing. These were/are the MacColls, who descended from Black Solomon, son of Coll, son of the Lord of the Isles, The MacLeays or Livingstones (anglicized from MacLeay), who were reported to be on Lismore in 1130, but who's heritage is so old that know one really knows their beginnings, The MacGillemichaels, or their anglicized form "Carmichael", are also so old that we can only guess. It is known that they were present in Appin prior to the 13th century. The Combichs descended from a family nickname from north Appin and the MacRobbs were/are actually Stewarts, descending from Robert, son of Dugald, 1st of Appin. The MacInnes, originally from the area of Morvern, settled in the area in the early 15th century. Adherents included/include the MacLaurins, Carmichaels, MacCombichs, MacColls, MacGillemichaels, McIlmichaels, MacInness, MacLeays, MacMichaels and MacRobbs (related by blood to the Stewarts). {| border="1" class="wikitable" !

Sir John Stewart was the son of Robert II of Scotland and was known as ‘The Black Stewart’ (either for his dark complexion or because his brother, John of Dundonald was known as ‘The Red Stewart’). The lands of Bute, Arran and Cumbrae were made into a county by Robert III and Sir John was made hereditary sheriff to the lands, as set out in a Royal Charter of 1400. [[stewart-4342 |James Stewart]], Laird1 of Kilcattan, was sheriff of Bute between 1445 and 1449, being succeeded by his brother William, who was also keeper of Brodick Castle on Arran. William’s grandson was Ninian Stewart, inheriting the position of sheriff and also being created hereditary captain and keeper of the royal Castle of Rothesay in 1498. The honour is still held by the family and is represented in the Coat of Arms. In 1539, Ninian Stewart was succeeded by his son James Stewart, who was in turn succeeded by his son John Stewart in 1570. John was Commissioner for Bute as well as being sheriff, attending Parliament in Edinburgh in this capacity. Around 1575 the family adopted the French spelling of the name ‘Stuart’, which was introduced by Mary, Queen of Scots. In 1627 [[stuart-1982 |Sir James Stuart]] of Bute was made a Baronet of Nova Scotia by Charles I. His grandson, also Sir James Stuart of Bute was made a Privy Councilor in the reign of Queen Anne and became Earl of Bute, Viscount Kingarth and Lord Mount Stuart, Cumra and Inchmarnock in 1703. He was later made Commissioner for Trade and Police in Scotland, Lord Lieutenant of Bute and a lord of the bedchamber. In 1715 he was commander of the Bute and Argyll militia at Inveraray.{{Image|file=Stuart-1037-1.jpg |align=r |size=m |caption=Arms of the Marquis of Bute. }} The third Earl of Bute, John Stuart, was friend and tutor to Prince George. When the prince became George III, John was made a Privy Councillor and First Lord of the Treasury. In 1763 he finalised a treaty with France, bringing the Seven Year’s War to an end. In 1794 John Stuart became the 1st Marquis of Bute. {{Image|file=Stuart-1035.jpg |align=l |size=m |caption=John Stuart 2nd Marquis of Bute. }}John Stuart's heir, Viscount Mount Stuart died young so the Title of Marquis passed to his grandson son John Crichton-Stuart who became Earl of Bute in 1792 and later 2nd Marquess of Bute. He went on to develop the docklands in Cardiff and after the Bute Docks opened in 1839, Cardiff became the world’s largest coal port. The 3rd Marquess, John Patrick Crichton-Stuart worked with the architect William Burgess on the extensive restoration of Castle Coch and Cardiff Castle. The 7th Marquess and current Chief2 is John Colum Stuart who currently calls himself Johnny Bute (AKA known as Johnny Dumfries), who enjoyed a successful career as racing driver, winning the Le Mans in 1988. The clan seat of Stuart of Bute is Mount Stuart. A very grand gothic mansion, it was rebuilt by the 3rd Marquess in the 19th century after being damaged by fire in 1877. ARMS.

This name is a patronymic form of the Scots personal name Tammas, which in turn is a form of the name Thomas. The Gaelic name Mac Tamhais is pronounced similarly to 'MacTavis' or 'MacTavish' (the "mh" in Gaelic pronounced as the "v" in the English word "very"). In old charters, the name had many variant spellings. Some spellings found within old charters, post-Culloden parish registers, and in The Commons Argyll appear as MacAvis, MacCamis, McCawis,McKavis, McKnavis, M'Ash, MacAnish, mcTais, MacTavifh and mcThavish, to give but a few. It seems that from near the end of 17th century, the spellings, MacTavish and/or Thom(p)son or Thomas were the most common. Variations in surname spelling within one document are often seen for the same person. '''THOMSON''' This name means literally 'son of Thom or Thomas,' and it should be noted that its prevalence throughout the British Isles clearly shows that Thomas had been a popular forename from the Middle Ages. Consequently, many families of differing origins now bear this name. Thom(p)son tends to be an English form, and Thomas is usually Welsh. The most eminent families, were found about Edinburgh where those of Duddingston held their lands until about 1688, and those of Corstorphine had long association with the Forrester lairds of that place. Thomson is also an anglicized form of MacTavish, MacThomas and MacComie. The MacTavishes of Argyll are said to derive from 'Taus Coir' an illegitimate son of a Lord of Lochow who lived about the beginning of the 13th century, but many of these have now changed their name to Thomson or Taweson. The Clan MacThomas of Glenshee (Perthshire), were originally MacComies who took their name from Thomas, a son of the 6th Chief of Mackintosh who settled there in the 15th century and from where many of his descendants became established in Angus and the surrounding counties. Although MacThomas remains the official name of that clan, having appeared as such in the Rolls of Clans compiled in 1587 and 1594, it is remarkable that few of its members have ever borne the name. Clan associations may therefore lie with the MacTavishes or MacThomases, and it is possible that some Thomasons are linked with Clan MacFarlane, for some are said to descend from Thomas, a son of a MacFarlane chief, who lived about 1390-1406. The name Maclehose is reputed to be of similar origin and is found in Argyll and areas adjacent to lands occupied by MacThomases and MacFarlanes. In 19th century Scotland Thomsons advanced the cause of Arts, Science and Invention beyond the 'per capita' endeavours of any other name - one patented a pneumatic tyre as early as 1845 and later, William Thomson, Lord Kelvin, gave his name to the scale of degrees Kelvin. In the absence of genealogical or geographical evidence of clan association, suitable tartans would be the Dress and Hunting Thomson patterns, both recorded at Lyon Court for Lord Thomson of Fleet, but now in general use. There was no single originating family named Thomson responsible for all the Scottish Thom(p)sons found today. The name is patronymic, in that the next generation is named after the father’s personal name. Although many have been linked by the Thompson DNA project. Thomsons are very numerous over a large part of Scotland and are primarily found south of the Forth and Clyde. The lowlands or border lands are neither purely English nor purely Scottish. In fact, the border lands and the region known as Lothian just north of the border have now become the center of Scotland with Edinburgh as it’s capital. The earliest Thomsons; spelled with an (a), (e), and sometimes a (p), slowly evolved from the 12th century into families with a central head or leader in the border and Lothian areas of the Scottish lowlands from Dunfriesshire to Rosburghshire. The Thomsons of Eskdale were a rather small fifteenth-century clan closely aligned with the larger clans Beattison snd Nixons. In the 1540’s the English Lord Wharton reported to the Earl of Shewsbury that the Batysons, Thomsons, and Lytles of Esskdayle have made raiding (reiving) forays on several English towns. In 1547 the English Lords Lennox and Wharton crossed the Esk River to subdue the south of Annandale and Castlemilk. The continuing reiving on the borders resulted in several lairds and clans being forced to give an oath of obeisance to the King of England. Bell’s MS, preserved in the Carlisle Cathedral Library, lists the names of 166 Beatties and Thomsons who had surrendered to the English King. The 1551 peace accord created the Debatable Lands between the Esk and Sark rivers which belonged to neither kingdom. The farmers of the fertile plains of Berwickshire and the middle Tweed valley saw themselves as different from the horsemen of Liddesdale. In 1569 the lairds of the eastern and middle marches asserted that, while they themselves were peaceable, the thieves of the western ranges were not. In a memorandum to the Scottish Privy Council, they insisted that reivers must be controlled. They produced a black list of the surnames of the worst offenders: All Armstrongs, Batesons, Bells, Crosiers, Elliots, Glendinnings, Hendresons, Irvines, Nixons, Routledges and Thomsons.

The name is derived from the lands of Tweedie which were along the Valley of the River Tweed in Peebleshire in the Scottish Borders. Scottish tradition ascribes the origin of the Tweedie name to be that of a water sprite in the River Tweed. Legend tells of a husband who went off to fight in the crusades and while he was away his young wife became pregnant and so he returned home to find he had a son. His wife then told him that she had gone down to the banks of the River Tweed and had been accosted by a fairy of the river and become pregnant by him. Her husband, for whatever reason, chose to believe this story but on the condition that the son kept the surname of Tweedie. The Tweedies have a history of being a powerful and domineering family, whose principal seat was Drumelzier in Tweeddale. The first recorded Tweedie is John de Tueda as he describes himself in the reign of Alexander II (1214-1249), who afterwards had a Charter from Alexander III (1249-1286), granted him under the name of John de Tuedy. He was the owner of lands on the River Tweed from which the family took their name, and even then the family connections and possessions were widespread and powerful. Finlay de Twydyn appears in the Ragman Rolls of 1296 swearing fealty to King Edward I of England, and his son Roger of Twydyn, received a charter to the house and lands of Drumelzier around 1320. The family held these lands for over 300 years. Crest: Motto: Slogan: Region: District: Plant badge: Pipe music: Gaelic name: Tartan: There is no registered tartan for this clan.

'''''[[:Category:The_Trial_and_Execution_of_Sir_William_Wallace|The Trial and Execution of Sir William Wallace]]''''' ----- '''History/Origins of the Clan''' The Wallace family first came to Scotland with a Norman family in the 11th Century. David I of Scotland was eager to extend Norman influence and gave grants to the nobles of the south. Among them was Walter fitz Alan, who the Scottish king appointed his Steward in 1136. One of Fitzallan's followers was Richard Wallace from Oswestry, who came north to try to improve his fortunes. Oswestry is on the Welsh border so it is possible that the name Wallace may be a corruption of Le Waleis, meaning the "Welshman". However, while it is possible that the Wallaces were originally Britons from Wales who came north with David I of Scotland in the 11th Century, another theory is that they were Britons who settled in Strathclyde in the 10th Century. The Steward received lands in Ayrshire from King David, so it was here that his follower, Richard Wallace, settled. Wallace was granted his own estate in Kyle, and held lands in Kilmarnock and was a vassal of the High Steward of Scotland before 1160. His grandson was Adam Walays, who in turn had two sons, the eldest of whom succeeded to the family estates in Ayrshire. Adam's younger son was Malcolm Wallace, who received the lands of Auchinbothie and Elderslie in Renfrewshire. '''Wars of Scottish Independence''' Malcolm Wallace appears in the Ragman Rolls of 1296 paying allegiance to Edward I of England; later he was one of the few Scottish nobles who refused to submit to Edward and, as a result, he and his son, Andrew, were executed. According to some sources, Malcolm was the father of the Scottish patriot, William Wallace, however, the seal of William Wallace, rediscovered in 1999, identifies him as the son of Alan Wallace of Ayrshire, who also appears in the Ragman Roll of 1296 as "crown tenant of Ayrshire". During the Wars of Scottish Independence, William Wallace and Andrew de Moray began a successful military guerrilla campaign against the English. In 1297, they won a great and stunning victory over the English at the Battle of Stirling Bridge, after which Wallace was knighted as Guardian of Scotland. Wallace was also in command at the Battle of Falkirk in 1298, but was defeated by the superiority of the English numbers. Wallace was eventually captured at Robroyston near Glasgow and delivered to Edward Longshanks of England by a senior Scottish law officer - Sir John Mentieth. Wallace was subjected to a show trial, in which he was found guilty of treason and hanged, drawn, and quartered at Smithfield, London in 1305. '''Border wars''' The Wallaces of Cragie, from whom the senior branch of the clan is descended, obtained their estate during the late 14th Century through the marriage to the heiress of Sir John Lindsay of Cragie. In October, 1449, Sir John Wallace of Cragie was a commander at the victory over the English at the Battle of Sark. William Wallace of Carnell was killed at the Battle of Flodden in 1513. '''17th century and Civil War''' The Wallaces of Cragie branch descend from the uncle of the patriot, William Wallace, and in 1669, Hugh Wallace of Craigie was created a Baronet of Nova Scotia. A contemporary Wallace, James Wallace, served as a captain under General Robert Monro when he occupied Huntly Castle of Clan Gordon in 1640. Another contemporary Wallace, Sir Hugh Wallace, a royalist, raised a regiment for King Charles Stuart during the Puritan revolution of Oliver Cromwell. In 1669, Hugh Wallace of Cragie was one of the Scottish nobility who was created a Baron of Nova Scotia under Sir William Alexander of Menstrie's scheme to promote that part of Canada as a Scottish colony. Also in the 17th Century, mathematician John Wallis was the first to deal with the concept of infinity mathematically and paved the way for the development of calculus and binomial theorem in his 1657 work ''Arithmetica Infintorum''. '''Wallaces in the 19th Century''' In the 19th Century, eminent naturalist and author, Alfred Russel Wallace, developed his own theories on evolution, based on his studies of flora and fauna in South America and in the East Indies, independently of Charles Darwin. Both theories were published simultaneously in 1858. Thomas Wallace served as the vice-president of the British Board of Trade, and in 1821 cut the duties imposed on Baltic timber; the act heralded the end of the mercantile system that had existed since England had first established colonies. Sociologist Graham Wallas was an early leader of the Fabian Society, along with George Bernard Shaw, an organization which promoted the peaceful and democratic "permeation of (British) politics with socialist and collectivist ideas." Sir Richard Wallace was a great collector of painting, sculpture and furniture, primarily 18th Century French. He bequeathed his collections to the people of Britain; upon his death in 1897 they became known as the National Wallace Collection.

According to the Register of the Lyon Court (Vol. 2, Folio 178, 1818) the last registered chief was a James Watson, Esq., of Saughton, who was recorded in 1818 as "direct male line from Richard Watson of Saughton, to be described as: Chief of the name in Scotland". Thus James Watson was recognised as Chief of Clan Watson. There is no further record. The lands appeared to have been at [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Saughton Saughton], now a suburb of Edinburgh. [http://www.friendsofsaughtonpark.org/saughton-park-history Saughton Park] was once part of Holyrood Abbey and were acquired by Richard Watson in 1537. Richard Watson was married to Janet Stenhope, one of the Stenhope family who held the nearby Stenhope mills – now known as Stenhouse mansion. The seat of the Watson's was Saughton House, demolished in 1918, which stood on the present site of [https://www.google.com.sg/maps/place/Broomhouse+Primary+School/@55.928173,-3.273914,15z/data=!4m5!3m4!1s0x0:0x63f91ed9fca65aad!8m2!3d55.928173!4d-3.273914 Broomhouse Primary School]. The family of Watson also held, along with others, a tack on the lands now known as Saughtonhall; these would have been farming lands near the river held to Holyrood Abbey. These lands should not be confused and they, eventually (1651), fell, by marriage, to the possession of Sir Alexander Maxwell of Calderwood, who then became Lord of Saughtonhall. Research, conducted by the [http://www.cassoc.ca/clans/watson/about.htm Clan Watson Society of Canada], suggests that James Watson had two sons, both were killed in the Boer War, and that his only daughter, Helen, married the Earl of Morton. No research of other lines can be found. It is likely that there are many source families for the name of Watson. :Crest: Two hands holding the trunk of an oak tree sprouting and the hands issuing out of clouds :Motto: Inspirata Floruit (It Has Flourished Beyond Expectation) [[Image: Clan Tartans-150.jpg|200px]] '''See Also:''' *https://www.clanwatson.org/ *https://insperatafloruit.substack.com *http://www.rampantscotland.com/clans/blclanwatt.htm *http://www.scotclans.com/scottish-clans/clan-watson/ *http://www.scotclans.com/scottish-clans/clan-watson/watson-history/ *http://www.rideau-info.com/ken/genealogy/watson-sept.html *https://www.scotsconnection.com/clan_crests/Watson.htm

''Clan Wemyss''
Origins of the Clan The name “Wemyss” is derived from the Gaelic word ‘uaimh’, meaning ‘cave’, and is believed to be taken from the caves and cliffs of the Firth of Forth in that part of Fife where the family of Wemyss made its home. Wemyss in Fife has been the seat of the chiefs since the twelfth century. They are one of the few Lowland families directly descended from the Celtic nobility through the Macduff Earls of Fife. In 1290, Sir Michael Wemyss and his brother, Sir David, were sent with Scott of Balwearie to Norway to bring back the infant Queen Margaret, the ‘Maid of Norway’. The family initially ensured their prosperity by supporting the cause of Robert the Bruce, and thereafter the name multiplied into many branches. The family seat, Wemyss Castle was built early in the thirteenth century and has the distinction of being the setting for the first meeting of Mary, Queen of Scots and her future husband, Henry. Lord Darnley. By the eighteenth century the Wemyss family were recognised as the senior representatives of the ancient earldom of Fife. add a story here, find one here [[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Category:Scottish_clans 1]] or here [[http://www.electricscotland.com/webclans/index.html 2]] '''Clan Chief:''' Michael Wemyss of Wemyss, Chief of Clan Wemyss.

Situated on the cliffs between the villages of East Wemyss and West Wemyss in Fife, Scotland. Accounts date the construction of the castle to the year 1421 when Sir John Wemyss decided to build a fortified castle to replace one destroyed by the Duke of Rothesay at Kilconquhar in 1402. The castle is thus the ancient seat of the Earls of Wemyss and their families. Historically, the castle is perhaps best known as the location where Mary, Queen of Scots, met her future husband Lord Darnley in 1565. '''Elcho Castle''' [[Image:Maria s Photobox-16.jpg|300px]] is owned by the Wemyss Lord Elcho. Located a short distance above the south bank of the River Tay approximately four miles south-east of Perth, Scotland. It consists of a Z-plan tower house, with fragments of a surrounding wall with corner towers. The Castle was built on the site of an older structure about 1560, and is one of the best surviving examples of its date in Scotland. A large portion of the Castle is accessible, although floors in some rooms have fallen, and much of the building can be walked through. The wall-walk is accessible at two points. The property is still owned by the family of the original builders, the Wemyss family (the style of the heir to the Earl of Wemyss is Lord Elcho), though it has not been inhabited for some 200 years. It has nevertheless been kept in good repair - one of the earliest examples in Scotland of a building being preserved purely for its historical interest. It is managed by Historic Scotland and is open to visitors throughout the summer. {| border="1" class="wikitable" ! Clan Name ! James 5th Earl of Wemyss ! Crest Badge ! Earl of Wemyss and March !

The Clan has a current Chief, '''Joseph John Hugh Fawcett Wood of Largo''', who matriculated the undifferenced Arms and Supporters of the first Chief of Clan Wood in the present line, Admiral Sir Andrew Wood of Largo in Fife. The Crest Badge for the Clan can be found on [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Clan_member_crest_badge_-_Clan_Wood.svg wikipedia] and can be worn by a representative of the Clan. There are two generally accepted origins of the name; a person that lived in or near a wood; and a person, a savage fighter, that modelled himself on Woden (Old English for Odin). To support the latter case, many of the prominent Wood families of eastern Scotland were known as Wod until well into the 17th Century. It is likely that there is no single source family that gave rise to all families of Wood. Regardless of origin the modern Clan stems from the House of Wood of Largo ([https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Largo,_Fife in Fife]) founded in the 15th century by the renowned Scottish seaman, Admiral Sir Andrew Wood – “Scotland’s Nelson”. He was recognised as first Chief of the House, granted Arms, along with the Achievement of Arms possessing Supporters – two sailors holding the Shield upright - that indicate the high status of the representer’s hereditary chiefship. The Chief’s Latin motto is “Tutus in Undis” – Safe amid the Waves. The Barony of Largo was conferred by James III in 1482, on Sir Andrew Wood, his naval commander, in recognition of his victories over the English. The estate of Largo was once the most extensive in the parish, with a mansion, Largo House, about a mile west of the church in Kirkton of Largo. The house, built in 1750, is now a ruin.

[[Category: Scotland Project Managed FSPs]] ==Collieston== Collieston is a small former fishing village on the North Sea coast in Aberdeenshire. The village lies just north of the Sands of Forvie Special Protection Area, between Cruden Bay and Newburgh. The earliest recorded history of Collieston is of the arrival of St. Ternan, a Columban monk on a mission to convert the local picts to Christianity. There is, however, evidence that people lived here during much earlier times. Collieston was established as a fishing village by the 16th Century, and it provides the first safe harbor in over 15 miles of beaches and dunes stretching north from Aberdeen. Fishing for herring, haddock, whiting and cod flourished in the 17th and 18th Centuries, and was the foundation of Collieston's economy. The village became known for 'Collieston Speldings', salted and sun-dried haddock and whiting, a popular delicacy throughout Britain. As drift netting developed during the mid-19th Century, the fishing began to decline and the industry shifted to places like Peterhead because the harbor at Collieston was too small to safely accommodate the larger boats needed. Collieston is now mainly a commuter village serving Aberdeen, and is filled with tourists during the summer months. [[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Collieston]]

[[Category: Scotland Project Managed FSPs]] {{Scottish Clans | clan = Clan Craig | tartan = Craig_Tartan.jpg }} == Tartan == [http://www.tartanregister.gov.uk/tartanDetails.aspx?ref=785]: MacGregor Hastie wrote, ''This tartan was designed by me to meet a long felt want. Many people have asked if there was a Craig family tartan, and as the name is not connected with any Highland clan, yet the family name is numerous, it seemed a good idea to design one. The design is based on the general colour of craigs and rocks.'' The grey was originally flecked to represent granite. The Craig tartan is now in general production. Previous notes included: Designed by MacGregor-Hastie circa 1957 at the request of a customer of the Scotch House in Knightsbridge, London. The other reported Craig is said to have originated with the Earl of Mar allowing the Craigs to add the colour red to his own black and white tartan. Jack Dalgety notes say Hastie wove the first piece on his own loom and thereafter it was woven by D.C. Dalgliesh. Sample in Scottish Tartans Authority's Dalgety Collection. Lochcarron sample.

In the late 6th and early 7th century Dál Riata included roughly present day Argyll and Bute, and Lochaber in Scotland, and also County Antrim in Northern Ireland. {{Image|file=Valerie_s_one_off_images-11.png |align=r |size=m |caption=the kingdom of Dalriada at its height 0580 - 0600 - Wikipedia: Briangotts}} This image of the lands of Dál Riata is shown with north oriented to the left, reflecting a world view for people of the time who would have understood their relationship between the Western Isles and Ireland in this way.

The Morvern district was formerly known as Kinelvadon, from the Cenél Báetáin, a subdivision of the Cenél Loairn. :'''The Cenél nÓengusa''' (Islay & Jura) the descendants of [[Macerc-1|Óengus Mór mac Eirc]] :'''The Cenél nGabráin''' (Kintyre) the descendants of [[mac Domangairt-2|Gabrán mac Domangairt]] :a fourth kindred, Cenél Chonchride in Islay, was seemingly too small to be deemed a major division. :By the end of the 7th century another kindred, - The Cenél Comgaill; the kindred of Comgall, (eastern Argyll & Bute; the district of Cowal) the descendants of [[mac Domangart-1|Comgall mac Domangairt]] By the end of the 7th century another kindred, Cenél Comgaill (kindred of Comgall), had emerged, based in eastern Argyll. The Lorn and Cowal districts of Argyll take their names from Cenél Loairn and Cenél Comgaill respectively, while the Morvern district was formerly known as Kinelvadon, from the Cenél Báetáin, a subdivision of the Cenél Loairn. Dál Riata is commonly seen as having been a Gaelic Irish colony in Scotland founded by Irish colonists who brought with them Christianity; writing; and new technologies, which were not inherent in Pictland. Some archeologists, like Ewan Campbell, have argued against the idea that Dál Riata was an Irish colony. The inhabitants of Dál Riata, along with every Celtic nation, are often referred to as Scots (Latin Scoti), a name that in earlier times was used by the Romans to refer to "raiders". They are referred to here as Gaels, an unambiguous term, or as Dál Riatans. The kingdom reached its height under [[Macgabrain-1|Áedán Mac Gabráin]] (r. 574-608), but its growth was checked at the [[Category: Battle of Degsastan|Battle of Degsastan]] in 603 by [[Norbrilsson-1|Æthelfrith of Northumbria]]. Serious defeats in Ireland and Scotland in the time of [[Mac_Echdach_Buide-1|Domnall Brecc]] (d. 642) ended Dál Riata's "golden age", and the kingdom became a client of Northumbria, then subject to the Picts. There is disagreement over the fate of the kingdom from the late eighth century onwards. Some scholars have seen no revival of Dál Riata after the long period of foreign domination (after 637 to around 750 or 760), while others have seen a revival of Dál Riata under Áed Find (736-778), and later [[MacAlpin-11|Kenneth MacAlpin]] (Cináed mac Ailpín). The kingdom's and its lands lost the Viking Age, and its people likely merged with the Picts of the Kingdom of Fortriu and others, some likely fleeing south to Galloway and others back to Ireland. The name of the kingdom is preserved in the etymology of the Dalradian geological series, a term coined by Archibald Geikie because its outcrop has a similar geographical reach to that of the former Dál Riata. == Sources == *[http://sites.rootsweb.com/~irlkik/ihm/ireclan2.htm#dalriata Walsh - Old Irish Kingdoms and Clans A supplement to Ireland's History in Maps] * Many old genealogies are drawn from the work of Ralph de Diceto, a 13th C. archdeacon of Middlesex and dean of St Paul's Cathedral - the [[:Category:Irish_History%2C_Kings_of_D%C3%A1l_Riata%2C_Imagines_historiarum|''Abbreviationes Chronicorum'' & ''Ymagines Historiarum'']] * '''Many thanks to [[Willis-3076|Valerie Willis]] for the long hours putting this together.'''

[[Category: Scotland Project Managed FSPs]] [[WikiTree ID|Name]][[Category: Declaration of Arbroath]] [[Space:Declaration_of_Arbroath|Declaration of Arbroath Project]]''' ''' Part of the [[Project:Scotland|Scotland Project]]''' ---------
'''For, as long as but a hundred of us remain alive, never will we on any conditions be brought under English rule. It is in truth not for glory, nor riches, nor honours that we are fighting, but for freedom – for that alone, which no honest man gives up but with life itself.'''
Part English translation.
The letter is written in Latin and uses the Latin versions of the signatories' names and titles. In some cases the names will change over the years. Wikitree, unlike Wikipedia, aims to use the names that people themselves would have known and that would have been recognized in their own time and place. Note that there were two Seal tags for David de Brechin. One, named as Dauid, Dominus de Brechyn in the text, and another Seal with the same Seal. One was an attempt to alter Brechyn to Graham (who should have appeared at this point but was later included as Seal 50). The two Brechin seals appear as Seal 15 and 16 in the Sigillography. Note they are not the Seal of his family (as he was believed to have been a Crusader) but that of the family of his second wife Mary Ramsay. Seals 35 and 49 are blank, presumed missing. The Arbroath Team is a part of the Scotland Project. Our goal is to develop comprehensive, well-written biographies for each of the signers of the Declaration and three generations of their descendants within Scotland. If you are interested in helping with this effort, please consider joining the Scotland Project and indicating that you would like to sign up for Team Arbroath. Because these are medieval profiles, it is required that all team members have obtained their pre-1500 certification. If you do not have a pre-1500 badge but are interested in working toward one and also contributing to the project, there may be a limited number of internships available which would enable you to develop one or more profiles while working under the guidance of a member who does have the pre-1500 badge. Because these internships will be limited by the number of members available and willing to serve as mentors, applicants who are interested will be selected on the basis of how long they have been a WikiTree member, the number of contributions they have made, whether they have been active in at least one project, and a review of several pre-1700 profiles which they have done themselves and of which they are especially proud. Anyone interested in becoming part of the Arbroath Team is encouraged to post a message on the [https://www.wikitree.com/wiki/Space:Scotland_-_Declaration_of_Arbroath team page] or message [[Stevens-17832|Jen Hutton]] directly. Before committing to work on any of these profiles, please familiarize yourself with the team's [https://www.wikitree.com/index.php?title=Space:Arbroath_Profiles_Checklist&public=1 Arbroath Profile Checklist]. {| border="2" cellpadding="8" !

[[Category: Scotland Project Managed FSPs]] The Scotland Project prefers that detailed DNA studies not be done directly on a Profile. In many cases the information leads to confusion or discourages participation by people who have no interest in DNA. The only DNA information that should be directly on a Scottish Profile are DNA Confirmation Statements Keep in mind that for all Confirmed with DNA indications, the entire paper trail must be fully documented with proper source citations and all relationships must be "confident" When there is extra DNA information that is believed to be relevant, it should be moved to a Free Space Page. A few things should be taken into consideration: *If there is an external DNA study site, point to that site in either the == Research Notes == section or in a See also after the source citations. Do not copy information from those sites. It isn't necessary and could be a copyright infringement. *If the study is being done on Wikitree, the Space page must state the methodology being used and any assumptions being made. The Project prefers that a minimum centiMorgans level of 7 be used and not anything below 5 cM. *For DNA studies moving into Scottish notables territory, the methodology should be a generally accepted methodology. *Autosomal DNA is not particularly useful beyond 5 to 7 generations. Attempting to go back further than that will need very detailed analysis with a generally accepted methodology. This moves beyond simple triangulation. *Y-DNA studies can be used for many more generation back in time but care should be taken. For Scotland Project, Y-DNA needs a minimum of 37 markers with more markers being better. Ideally the 111 marker or Big Y-700. *Mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) studies should be done with full sequencing that also includes both hyper variable regions (HVR1 and HVR2) . Guidelines on DNA Study Space Pages for use in the Scotland Project: *long lists of relationships between a Member and and ancestor don't provide much benefit and just makes the report more difficult for readers to follow the arguments being presented. What is useful are lists of members who share a Most Recent Common Ancestor or Most Recent Common Ancestral Couple. *when multiple ancestors are involved in the study, they should all be defined and how they fit into the study made clear. For example, a line of Clan Chiefs may be the subject of the study. This should be clearly explained in the introduction and the study organized by the list of chiefs. Each chief would be a section of the study with some indication of how they fit into the study. *studies should not just be random DNA information. It must be organized and explained clearly. We want non-DNA oriented people to be able to understand the point of the study. A basic study will: #Describe the purpose of the study and the methodology being used. #Enumerate the subjects of the study #Show how DNA verifies relationships for each of the subjects ##DNA confirmation statements supporting the research ##list target research that still needs to be done for this subject ##conclusions found if sufficient data to make any #If the study is complete, discuss the conclusions.

[[Category:Clan Douglas]] [[Category:Castles in Scotland]] [[Category:Douglas Castle]] [[Category: Scotland Project Managed FSPs]] ==Douglas Castle== :Douglas Castle was a stronghold of the Douglas family from medieval times to the 20th century. The first castle, erected in the 13th century, was destroyed and replaced several times until the 18th century when a large mansion house was built in its place. This too was demolished in 1938, and today only a single corner tower of the 17th-century castle remains. The castle was the former family seat of the Prime Minister, Alec Douglas-Home. The castle was located around 1 kilometre (0.62 mi) north-east of the village of Douglas, South Lanarkshire, in south-west Scotland. ===History=== :The Douglas family built the first Douglas Castle, which was constructed of either wood or stone, sometime before 1288. In 1307, during the Wars of Scottish Independence the castle was captured and garrisoned by the English under Lord Clifford. Sir James Douglas, companion of Robert the Bruce successfully recaptured his family seat by storming the castle on Palm Sunday, while the garrison were at chapel. he had the garrison killed and thrown into a cellar, before the structure was burned. The event has become known as "Douglas' larder". :Robert the Bruce rewarded the loyalty of the Douglases, and Sir James' heirs were created Earls of Douglas. Douglas Castle was rebuilt as one of their strongholds, but by the 15th century, the power of the "Black" Douglases had come to threaten the Stewart monarchy. In 1455 James II led an expedition against the rebellious 9th Earl, defeating his forces at the battle of Arkinholm. Douglas Castle was sacked and the family's lands and titles forfeited. :The "Red" Douglases, Earls of Angus, had sided with the king against the senior branch of their family, and it was they who gained the Douglas lands in Lanarkshire. It is likely that the castle was rebuilt soon after 1455. Regent Morton came to Douglasdale in June 1574 to survey the house of the Earl of Angus with a view to repairing it and living there. :In 1703, Archibald Douglas, 3rd Marquess of Douglas was created Duke of Douglas, with his principal seat at Douglas Castle. The castle was again rebuilt around this time, as a tower house and an enclosed courtyard with a corner tower. This castle was destroyed by fire in 1755, with the exception of the corner tower. :From 1757, the Duke began construction of an enormous castellated mansion at Douglas. The architects of this, the final Douglas Castle, were the Adam Brothers (James Adam, John Adam, and Robert Adam). Had it been completed the castle would have been the largest in Scotland. As it was the Duke of Douglas died in 1761, and only around half of the original design was ever completed. The five storey building had round towers to the front and square towers to the rear facade, and stood in a very extensive park spanning the valley of the Douglas Water. The Duke's estate became the subject of a famous and bitter legal dispute, known as the 'Douglas Cause', between his nephew Archibald Douglas, 1st Baron Douglas and the Duke of Hamilton. Lord Douglas was eventually victorious, and the castle descended through him to the Earls of Home. In the 1930s Charles Douglas-Home, 13th Earl of Home allowed the mining of coal in the park adjacent to the castle, in an attempt to relieve desperate levels of local unemployment. Sadly, the mining caused dangerous subsidence to the castle and it had to be demolished in 1938.

[[Category: Scotland Project Managed FSPs]] [[Category:Dukes in the Peerage of Scotland]] The primary source reference for research into this field are the nine volumes of Sir Balfour Paul's work, "The Scots Peerage". ---- '''Dukes in the Peerage of Scotland''' The Dukedom, the first and highest rank in the peerage, was introduced into Scotland as a peerage title by King Robert III on 28 April 1398 when he created his eldest son, David, known as "the Steward of Scotland", Duke of Rothesay. It would seem that from its creation it was, like the Dukedom of Cornwall in England, intended to be held by the Heir to the Throne. It was not until an Act of Parliament, 27 November 1469, that the Lordship of Bute, with the Castle of Rothesay and other lands, were formally settled on the first born son of the Kings of Scotland. Accordingly each such son has since that period, from either their birth or their father's succession to the Throne, been considered as Duke of Rothesay, Earl of Carrick and Baron of Renfrew as also Prince and Steward of Scotland and Lord of the Isles. The second Dukedom to be created in Scotland was also conferred on 28 April 1398 upon Robert Stewart, Earl of Fife and uncle of the Duke of Rothesay, under the title of Duke of Albany (being defined as those parts of Scotland that are north of the Firths of Clyde and Forth). As in England, grants of the ducal style were at first strictly confined to near relatives of the King, either by blood or by marriage. The first subject to receive a dukedom who was not a member or close relation of the Royal Family was David Lindsay, 5th Earl of Crawford, who was created Duke of Montrose in 1488. The last of the 28 Scottish Dukedoms was that of Roxburghe, created in 1707 for John Ker, 5th Earl of Roxburghe. ----

(Clan vs Sept) Duncan names were included by a happy accident that they lived within control of the dominant family, in specific areas, rising to power as the clan system formed. Septs pledged fealty to their "lords". The precise descent of the Clan still needs confirmation, but it appears certain that the chiefs were the male heirs to the old Celtic Earls of Atholl and thus have the oldest certifiable ancestry of any family in Scotland.

[[Category: Scotland Project Managed FSPs]] [[Category:Earls in the Peerage of Scotland]] Originally there were seven Earldoms in Scotland, these representing the seven provinces (each one consisting of two districts) of the Pictish Kingdom into which, prior to the ninth century, "transmarine Scotland", i.e. the country north of the Firth of Forth and the Firth of Clyde, was divided. These provinces were: (1) Angus, now co. Forfar, with Mearns, now co. Kincardine; (2) Athole with Gowry, now the north and east part of Perthshire; (3) Strathearn with Menteith, now the southern part of Perthshire; (4) Fife with Fothreve, both of which now form the county of Fife; (5) Mar with Buchan, now together forming Aberdeenshire and Banffshire; (6) Moray with Ross, now forming Inverness-shire and Ross-shire; and (7) Caithness with Sutherland. The district on the west being the Kingdom of Dalriada (now part of Argyllshire) was not originally part of the Seven but in the tenth century the province of Argyll was added, which included not only the Dalriada, but the entire western seaboard of Scotland as far north as the old province of Caithness, which latter province was then omitted as it had previously passed into the hands of the Norwegians. The ruler of each of these districts originally bore the title of "Ri" (i.e. King), being inferior only to the "Ard-Ri" (i.e. High King); but in the tenth century (with the exception of Argyll, and occasionally of Moray) each such ruler was styled "Mormaer" (i.e. Great Maer or Steward). It was in the foundation charter of the Abbey of Scone dated 1114/5 that the Mormaers of most of these provinces occur for the first time under the name of Earls. From the time when the Celtic King Malcolm III (1057-98) had married the Saxon Princess Margaret, there had been an increasing Saxon influence in the government of the Celtic provinces, while the object of King David I (1124-53) was to introduce the feudal system of Norman England into Scotland, and adapt her institutions to feudal forms. The relation of the Old Celtic Earls, or Mormaers, towards the Crown gradually changed to that of feudal lords, holding their lands as an Earldom of the Crown. The creation of six additional Earls, namely Menteith, Garioch, Lennox, Ross, Carrick and Caithness formed part of the feudalising scheme.

[[Category: Scotland Project Managed FSPs]] ==Gilchrist, Earl of Angus: Discussion== The following post-em by Curt Hofemann, curt_hofemann AT yahoo.com, has more information on Gilchrist, and his potential wives (Note: I used to have Ingibirog Ericsdottir, as wife of Gilchrist, but moved her to Gillbride the father (however unlikely) because of citations in CP & BP: Somerled (Lord of the Isles) being no less ambitious than great, raised an army, and invaded the territories of Malcolm IV. who succeeded David, was joined by Donald, son of Malcolm MacBeth, who had been at the head of a formidable rebellion in the preceeding reign; but king Malcolm sent the brave Gilchrist, earl of Angus, against them, who defeated them, took Donald prisoner, and obliged Somerled to fly to Ireland, anno 1157. [Ref: http://www.macleodgenealogy.com/ACMS/D0084/I79.html citing: Sir Robert Douglas of Glenbervie, PEERAGE OF SCOTLAND, Edinburgh, 1764?, pp. 357ff. I.] ***** Ref: John P. Ravilious 22 May 2001: ...Gilchrist, Earl of Angus, d. ca. 1204 (married)... (possibly Ingeborg), sister of Harald Ungi, joint Earl of Caithness and Jarl of the Orkneys, probably second wife of Gilchrist [for theory behind her 'identity' see SP Vol II p. 315, 317]. *A daughter Ingeborg is named in the Orkneyinga Saga. ***** [Ref: Leo van de Pas 14 Apr 1999: The Complete Peerage Volume I page 146 Gilchrist, Earl of Angus, who died between 1207 and 1211 according to footnote a, It has been said, but it is doubtful, that his wife was Maud, of Marjory, sister of King William the Lion... ***** Ref: Marlyn Lewis 18 Jun 1997: Gilchrist, 3rd Earl of Angus, d. 1207; md. (1) (Miss) Maddadson (dau of Harold Maddadson, Earl of Caithness, Co-Jarl of Orkney, b. 1130, d. 1206, son of Madach, Earl of Athol and Margaret of Orkney md. (married) (1) Aufrica, sister of Duncan, Earl of Fife; (2) Gormflaeth (Hvafleda) MacHeth (= mother of wife of Gilchrist. She was dau of Malcolm II MacHeth, Earl of Moray)) (2) Ingebiorg of Orkney. Gille Críst of Angus, ruled until 1206 as Mormaer of Angus. He was a son of Gille Brigte of Angus and younger brother of Adam of Angus. Almost nothing is known of him, except that he married Marjorie of Huntingdon, the daughter of Henry, Earl of Huntingdon and Ada de Warenne, and that he was succeeded by his son Donnchad before 1206. His daughter Bethóc (Beatrix) was married to Walter Stewart, 3rd High Steward of Scotland and was mother to Alexander Stewart, 4th High Steward of Scotland. Roberts, John L., Lost Kingdoms: Celtic Scotland in the Middle Ages, (Edinburgh, 1997), pp. 53–4; http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gille_Cr%C3%ADst,_Earl_of_Angus The son of Gille Crist, Mormaer (Earl) of Angus by his wife Ingibiorg, sister of Harald III, Earl of Orkney and daughter of Eric Stalbregr by his wife Ingrid (daughter of Ragnvald III, Earl of Orkney), he was granted the Earldom of Orkney by King Haakon IV of Norway in 1236. (The first Magnus of Orkney was Saint Magnus Erlendsson, who ruled from 1108 to about 1117.) He died three years later, and was succeeded by his son Gilbert.

Archive.Org.>[https://archive.org/details/scotspeeragefoun01pauluoft/page/174/mode/2up Gilchrist, Earl of Angus, Vol I, pps 162-4] ***** Ref: Jared Olar 30 Jan 1996: ...As for Margery de Huntingdon, wife of Gilchrist, I have encountered a statement that Gilchrist's wife was this Margery, but haven't been able to find any support...Scots Peerage's article on the Earls of Angus says nothing of Margery de Huntingdon, nor is she mentioned at volume I page 12. "The Great Historic Families of Scotland" by James Taylor published in 1889, republished in 1995, page 69: The first of the chieftains of the province of Angus who bore the designation of Earl was Gilchrist. A singular story regarding him is related by Buchanan, on the authority of an old chronicle. For the great services which this powerful noble performed to the Crown he received the hand of the king's sister in marriage. She, however, proved unfaithful to her marriage vow, and he caused her to be put to death. This murder so enraged the king---William the Lion---against Gilchrist etc.........Gilchrist and his two sons etc. ***** Ref: John P. Ravilious 15 Sep 2000 (renumbered & much before & after the below is omitted...Curt): 1. Rognvald [originally Kali] Kolsson, Jarl of Orkney 1131-1158 [joint with Harald Madadhsson in Caithness, 1139-1158] issue by unknown wife: 11. Ingigerd Rognvaldsdottir, m. Eric 'Slagbrellir' issue by this husband: 111. Harald 'Ungi', Jarl of Orkney [joint with Harald Madadhsson] 1158 - 112. Ingeborg Ericsdottir, m. as 2nd wife Gilchrist, Earl of Angus 1157-1204 [by first wife, he was father of Duncan, later Earl of Angus, and or Beatrix of Angus, wife of Walter le Stewart, Lord High Steward of Scotland, d. 1241] ... The problem connection (other than the construct re: the descent through the Earls of Angus) is the marriage that brought the claim to the Jarldom of the Orkneys to the indicated branch of the family of Gilchrist, Earl of Angus: This connection was adopted by Balfour Paul (Scots Peerage) from a previous writer, who gives no clear indication of which branch the Angus family was allied to (that of Harald Madadhsson isn't necessarily ruled out) determined that it must be through the Rognvald Kolsson line, as the name Magnus [as in the Jarl of Orkney, 1232-1239] indicates a connection with the branch to which St. Magnus [Erlendsson] belongs. Has anyone found actual evidence to support, modify or discount this 'connection' ? The fact that a connection existed seems undeniable [it was such a connection that provided the basis for the Norwegian recognition of the claims of the Angus family, the Earls of Strathearn and the Sinclairs of Roslin in due course], and the argument that the connection traces from a descent from Thorfinn II Sigurdsson appears without any known weakness - it does seem that the 'Magnus' connection amounts to a fairly weak, 'seems better than anything else' approach. Prior to the sons of Malcolm Canmore and the saintly Queen Margaret ruling Scotland, the area was known as Angus and was usually linked with the Mearns (Kincardine) or Gowrie. During this period it was clearly an administrative unit, ruled by a Mormaer. Mormaer was a celtic term meaning 'great steward' and gave way to the term 'Earl' by the late 12th century. The earliest recorded was Earl Gilchrist, Mormaer of Angus, who gave Kirriemuir to the Abbey of Arbroath in 1178. [Ref: http://www.angus.gov.uk/history/features/ansname.htm] ==Sources==

[[Category: Scotland Project Managed FSPs]] ==Hatton of Fintray== Hatton of Fintray, commonly referred to as Fintray, is a village on the River Don in Aberdeenshire, in the parish of Fintray. It was a textile village and its church dates from 1821, and there used to be a nearby ferry crossing the river. The name of the parish is said to be derived from the Gaelic, ''Fionn-traigh'', meaning “the white, or fair margin of coast, or boundary of coast” an appellation descriptive enough of the greater portion of the parish which lies along the north bank of the Don. The parish is bounded on the south by the river Don, which separates it from the parishes of Dyce, Kinellar and Kintore; by the parish of Keith-hall on the north and west; and by Newmachar on the east.

[[Category: Scotland Project Managed FSPs]] ==Fraserburgh (Scottish Gaelic: ''A' Bhruaich'')== Fraserburgh is the second largest town in Aberdeenshire, Scotland with a population of 12,540 in 2011. [[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aberdeenshire]] It lies at the far northeast corner of Aberdeenshire, about 40 miles (64 km) north of Aberdeen, and 17 miles (27 km) north of Peterhead. It is the biggest shellfish port in Europe, landing over 12,000 tonnes in 2008,[4] and is also a major white fish port and busy commercial harbour. The name of the town means, literally, 'burgh of Fraser', after the Fraser family that bought the lands of Philorth in 1504 and brought about major improvements due to investments over the next century. Fraserburgh became a burgh of barony in 1546. By 1570, the Fraser family had built a castle (Fraserburgh Castle) at Kinnaird's Head and, within a year, the area church was built. By the 1590's, the area known as Faithlie was developing a small harbor. In 1592, Faithlie was renamed Fraserburgh by a charter of the Crown under King James VI. Sir Alexander Fraser was given permission to improve and govern the town as Lord Saltoun. A grant from the Scottish Parliament in 1595 allowed the first college building to be erected by Alexander Fraser. In 1601, Fraserburgh became a burgh of regality. The college, however, closed only a decade or so after Ferme's arrest on the orders of James VI for taking part in the 1605 General Assembly, being used again only for a short time in 1647 when King's College, Aberdeen temporarily relocated owing to an outbreak of plague. Fraserburgh remained relatively quiet until 1787 when Fraserburgh Castle was converted to Kinnaird Head Lighthouse, Scotland's first mainland lighthouse. In 1803, the original 1571 church building was replaced and enlarged to seat 1000 people. The harbor was extended with a northern pier of 300 yards built between 1807–1812 and, in 1818, a southern pier was built by Act of Parliament. A railway station opened in 1865 and trains operated to Aberdeen via Maud and Dyce, as well as a short branch line to St. Combs. It was closed to passengers in 1965, though freight trains continued to operate until 1979, after which the station site was redeveloped.

Each of the families constructed a new tower onto the castle, the first of these being the Preston Tower. Dated between 1390-1433, the tower located on the far right as one faces the main facade of Fyvie, remains standing to this day. The Seton family added to the entrance to Fyvie Castle the Seton Towers in 1599, Seton's also added the great processional staircase some time after the addition of the Seton Tower. The Gordon Tower was added in 1777, and finally the Leith Tower in 1890. The descendants of Alexander Leith, who owned the castle in the late 1800′s – early 1900′s, sold the castle to the National Trust for Scotland in 1984.

{{Image|file=Profile_Photo_s-102.jpg |align=c |size=500px |caption= }} ===Fyvie Castle Ghosts=== As with most old buildings, the stories of hauntings &/or a ghost or two is usual, and with Fyvie Castle that certainly is the case, with a little more mysterious goings on than most. ====The Grey Lady of Fyvie Castle==== {{Image|file=Fyvie_Castle-2.jpg |align=c |size=400px |caption=The Grey Lady of Fyvie Castle Meldrum }} Thought to be the ghost of Lady Meldrum who died in the 13th Century. It is believed that she requested to be buried in the walls of a secret room in the Meldrum Tower. It wasn’t until 1920 that her remains were discovered. The remains were laid to rest in the cemetery, and from that day forward, the castle has experienced several strange and unexplained occurrences. The apparition of Lady Meldrum has been seen many times around the castle. ====The Green Lady of Fyvie Castle==== {{Image|file=Photos-1-3.gif |align=l |size=150px |caption= }}{{Image|file=Drummond-108.jpg |align=c |size=300px |caption= The Green Lady of Fyvie Castle
[[Drummond-108|Lillias Drummond]] }} When [[Drummond-108 | Lillias Drummond]] married [[Seton-20 | Alexander Seton]], Lord Fyvie and later 1st Earl of Dumferline
Fyvie Castle was already cursed by bard and seer Thomas the Rhymer, who had predicted in the thirteenth century that no male heir to Fyvie would ever be born within the castle walls, it is rumoured that [[Seton-20 | Lord Seton]] blamed [[Drummond-108 | Lillias Drummond]] for the lack of a son and heir when he began an affair with the cousin of his wife, (and later his future wife) Grizel Leslie, it is said that [[Drummond-108 | Lillias]] , upon learning of the affair, betrayed and heartbroken retired to their home in Dalgety and wasted away of a broken heart and died shortly after; other sources state her death cause was to poisoning or starvation at the hands of [[Seton-20 | Lord Seton]]. {{Image|file=Drummond-108-2.jpg |align=l |size=300px |caption= Words D. LILLIAS DRUMMOND etched into the stone
Photo Credit: [http://gordoncastles.wikia.com/wiki/Fyvie Screamingbluemessiah] Jan 29, 2010 }} In October, only months after [[Drummond-108 | Lillias]] died, [[Seton-20 | Alexander Seton]] married Grizel Leslie, on their wedding night when in the matrimonial bed, they both were distracted by sad, moaning from outside their room window, and even after a search by [[Seton-20 | Lord Seton]] & Servants, no reason could be found for the sound. The next morning there was the words '''D. LILLIAS DRUMMOND''' etched into the stone windowsill in letters three inches high and upside down, the window is over 50 feet from the ground below. The etched letters can still be seen to this day. ~ From this time onwards Fyvie Castle has been haunted by a lady in green, roaming the corridors of the castle, crying the betrayal of her husband, and leaving behind a scent of Rose petals.

Believed to be the ghost of Andrew Lammie, who died of a broken heart after finding out about the death of his beloved Agnes. Andrew is also said to appear dressed in rich tartan, near the castle wall. On several occasions the figure of a man has been seen, only to disappear when approached. ====Legend of ‘The Weeping Stones of Fyvie==== upon visiting the castle sometime ago, Thomas the Rhymer also known as True Thomas (because of his future telling abilities), told of a prophecy that goes: {{Image|file=Fyvie_Castle-4.jpg |align=l |size=250px |caption=The Weepstone Plaque }}
:::::Fyvie, Fyvie, thou’s never thrive :::::As lang’s there’s in thee stanes (stones) three :::::There’s ane intill (one in) the oldest tower, :::::There’s ane intill the ladye’s bower, :::::There’s ane intill the water-yett (water gate) :::::And thir three stanes ye never get.

This message refers to three stones that were used in the construction of the Preston Tower, the Charter Room, and one stone that was rolled into the Ythan River. They were apparently taken from a sacred burial site, and until they are returned, no male heir shall live to ever inherit the castle. The stones are also said to remain wet when all around them are dry, and dry when all around them are wet. One of the stones was found in the Charter room, and can be seen today on display in the castle Eerie Fact: No male heir has never survived to inherit Fyvie Castle!! ===Location=== {{Image|file=Fyvie_Castle-1.jpg |align=c |size=450px |caption=Fyvie Castle in the village of Fyvie, near Turriff in Aberdeenshire, Scotland. }} ==Sources==

Glen_Cinema_Disaster.jpg
[[Category: Scotland Project Managed FSPs]] '''The Glen Cinema Disaster''' occurred on 31 Dec 1929. About 1,000 children were attending a children's matinee, when smoke from a smouldering film canister was seen. In the panic and crush which ensued, 69 children were killed and 40 were injured, 2 of whom also died in the following days. The Scotsman - Wednesday 01 January 1930: ([https://www.britishnewspaperarchive.co.uk/viewer/bl/0000540/19300101/473/0009 British Newspaper Archive])BBC Scotland News, Published 31 December 2019: ([https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-scotland-50502446 Glen Cinema article])GlasgowLive News: 30 Dec 2019: ([https://www.glasgowlive.co.uk/news/history/glen-cinema-disaster-paisley-15613839?utm_source=linkCopy&utm_medium=social&utm_campaign=sharebar Glen Cinema article]) Some families lost more than one child in what was one of the worst human tragedies in Scotland. A ceremony is still held in Paisley each year on 31st December to commemorate the victims. Following the tragedy, safety regulations were improved and inspections of picture houses were made compulsory.

This castle, which has a fine riverside setting, belonged to the [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hepburn_(surname) Hepburn] family during the most important centuries of its existence. Since 1926, it has been the subject of a state-sponsored guardianship agreement, which is now under the auspices of [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hepburn_(surname) Hepburn]. It is open to the public without charge at all reasonable times. ===Proprietors=== The castle was originally founded as a fortified [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tower_house tower house] by Hugo de Gourlay before 1300, making it one of the oldest constructions of its kind in Scotland. The superiority of the lands was held by the Earls of Dunbar and March.

Paul, Sir James Balfour, ''The Scots Peerage'', Edinburgh, 1905, under 'Bothwell':135/6 On December 20, 1451, Sir [[Hepburn-14|Patrick Hepburn, 1st Lord Hailes]], had a Crown charter of the Lordship of Hailes and other lordships and lands, which his predecessors formerly held in heritage of the Earls of March, who again held them of the Crown in chief; also the lands of Prendergast, above Ayton, and others in the sheriffdom of Berwick, with all rights in the lands formerly held by George Dunbar, Earl of March, and forfeited by him: the whole erected into a free barony to be called the [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lordship_and_Barony_of_Hailes Barony of Hailes].

Paul, Sir James Balfour, ''The Scots Peerage'', Edinburgh, 1905, under 'Bothwell':141/2 It is thought that Sir Patrick Hepburn dramatically extended the castle. A massive tower of at least four storeys was built to the west of the original construction, and a lower tower to the East to form a long north range, looming above the river Tyne. The thick curtain wall of the castle may date back to the 13th century. ===Sieges=== {{Image|file=Hailes_Castle-2.jpg |align=l |size=300px |caption=''The East Tower at Hailes Castle'' }} In 1400 it successfully withstood an attack from Harry [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Henry_Hotspur_Percy Hotspur] Percy, in league with the Earl of March.

[[Category: Scotland Project Managed FSPs]] == General Comments about DNA Confirmation for Genealogy== DNA information about ancestral lines is often speculated upon. While the speculation of specific Haplogroups might be useful, it should not be assumed that the speculation is correct. For Wikitree, Y DNA matches also need well documented pedigrees. It is also possible for name changes to occur. This is not uncommon in Scottish genealogy where a male may take the name of his wife's family in order to preserve a family name. This page can be used for detailed analysis of Hamilton DNA for use in the genealogy of the family. Note that a single Y-DNA test is not sufficent to indicate the haplogroup of any individual. At least two lines to the Most Recent Common Ancestor are required. === DNA: Y-Chromosome Haplogroup I-L1237 === All male line descendants of this person will be the same haplogroup. For an explanation of Y chromosome testing for genealogy purposes see Wikipedia at http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Genealogical_DNA_test#Y_chromosome_.28Y-DNA.29_testing. Note STR patterns can be used to predict a haplogroup wheresas specific SNP testing accurately defines a haplogroup. The current approved haplotree can be found at http://www.isogg.org/tree/index.html and the current haplogroup designations against specific SNPs can be found at http://www.isogg.org/tree/ISOGG_YDNA_SNP_IndexSource.html. The Hamilton Surname genetic genealogy project site: http://www.personal.psu.edu/faculty/g/a/gah4/HamDNA/GrpB.html ===Sir James Hamilton 5th Laird of Cadzow=== Research by the [http://www.personal.psu.edu/faculty/g/a/gah4/HamDNA/Results.html Hamilton DNA Project Group] claims that his father could not have been Sir John Hamilton, 4th of Cadzow. This study claims it has conclusively proved that John isn’t his father, but none of the research “proving” this conclusion is included in the report and no source citations are given. It may be possible to validate the results, but it appears to require the reader to track down genealogies and associate individuals with a branch from anonymized data. While the study is compelling on the surface, there is so little detail that it cannot be taken with the certitude that it claims. It also requires taking the pedigrees on faith and they would be at least 17 generations long. Other research disputes the certainty claimed and leaves this parentage as just a possiibility. Sir John Hamilton should be left as his father until such time as a peer reviewed study is published. Such a study should preferably conform to the Genealogical Proof Standard.Wikipedia contributors, "Genealogical Proof Standard," Wikipedia, The Free Encyclopedia, https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Genealogical_Proof_Standard&oldid=930597991 (accessed June 17, 2021). The study appears to fit the following chart: {{Image|file=Hamilton_DNA_Notes-1.png}} It shows that there isn't enough data provided to concude anything definitively. ===Member Comments=== Comment by [[Hamilton-8683|Michael Hamilton]]: As for the confusion concerning the Hamilton Y-DNA and the Douglas Y-DNA. In one instance of the Douglas Y-DNA: Y-DNA I-L338 for all of Walter Hamilton of Darngaber's male line? Possibly. (my early Great-grandfather, on my grandMother's side) Y-DNA is possibly I-Y6635 per Descendent of Walter Hamilton of Darngaber, (potentially one of my FTDNA matches). BOTH I-L338 (also known as I1a2a1a1a) and related I-Y6635 (also known as I1a3a1a1a1, Parent Branch: I-Y6624) are of Haplogroup I-M253 also known as I1 (a Y chromosome haplogroup). I-L338 is a well-known Haplogroup of the Douglases. Walter Hamilton of Darngaber (not "of Cadzow") BIRTH 1392 • Cadzow, Lanarkshire, Scotland, DEATH 20 MAY 1441 • Trabzon, Trabzon, Turkey and his descendants were descended from the Douglases and not the Hamiltons. ==Sources== http://dgmweb.net/DNA/Thompson/ThompsonDNA-results.html https://www.familytreedna.com/public/Douglas?iframe=yresults http://www.yseq.net/product_info.php?products_id=21060 https://haplogroup.org/ystory/i-y6635/ http://www.personal.psu.edu/faculty/g/a/gah4/HamDNA/B1.pdf (And it is not unreasonable to, at least, consider the uncle of Walter Hamilton (of Darngarber, not "of Cadzow"), John Hamilton of Fingalton as not being a Hamilton either as their Y-DNA has been compared. Assumptions to the contrary are very risky.)

[[Category: Scotland Project Managed FSPs]] ==Hatton== Hatton (occasionally Hatton of Cruden) is a village in Aberdeenshire that lies on the A90 road, approximately equidistant from both Ellon and Peterhead. [[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hatton,_Aberdeenshire]] There is considerable evidence of early human habitation in the vicinity, most notably by the existence of the ancient Catto Long Barrow and numerous tumuli nearby.

The Scots, however, refused to tolerate English rule; first William Wallace and then, after his execution, Robert the Bruce (the grandson of the 1292 competitor) fought against the English. Bruce and his supporters killed a rival for the throne, John III Comyn, Lord of Badenoch on 10 February 1306 at Greyfriars Church in Dumfries. Shortly after in 1306, Robert was crowned King of Scots at Scone. His energy, and the corresponding replacement of the vigorous Edward I with his weaker son Edward II, allowed Scotland to free itself from English rule; at the [[:Category: Battle of Bannockburn|Battle of Bannockburn]] in 1314, the Scots routed the English, and by 1329 the English agreed by treaty to accept Scottish independence. Robert's successor, his son David, was a child at his succession. The English renewed their war with Scotland, and David was forced to flee the Kingdom by Edward Balliol, son of King John, who managed to get himself crowned King of Scots (1332–1336) and to give away Scotland's southern counties to England before being driven out again. David spent much of his life in exile, first in freedom with his ally, France, and then in gaol in England; he was only able to return to Scotland in 1357. Upon his death, childless, in 1371, the House of Bruce came to an end.

[[Category: Scotland Project Managed FSPs]] ==Inverbervie (Scottish Gaelic: ''Inbhir Biorbhaidh'')== Inverbervie is a small town on the north-east coast of Scotland, south of Stonehaven, in the Aberdeenshire council area. Inverbervie appears in written history as far back as the 12th Century. In a document relating to Arbroath Abbey, Simon of Inverbervie is noted as having witnessed a charter transferring the lands of Balfeith to the Abbey. The settlement was formerly a royal burgh from 1342 to 1975 and a parliamentary burgh from 1708 to 1950, the former status being conferred by David II of Scotland for hospitality he and his Queen received when shipwrecked there the previous year when returning from exile. A small harbor in the town was important in early years but, despite improvements by Thomas Telford in 1819, disappeared by 1830 owing to the buildup of the shingle bar at the river mouth. The first flax spinning mill in Scotland was established there around 1790 and, by 1910, there were nine in operation employing 500-600 workers. As a result of this, the population of the settlement peaked at over 2,500 around the turn of the 20th Century but has since declined owing to the downturn in that industry. The town was within the county of Kincardineshire until 1975, when the county was merged into the Grampian Region. The Aberdeenshire unitary council area, which now includes Inverbervie, was created when the region system was eradicated in 1996. [[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Inverbervie]]

[[Category: Scotland Project Managed FSPs]] ==Inverurie (Scottish Gaelic: ''Inbhir Uraidh'')== Inverurie is the third largest village in Aberdeenshire, Scotland, with a population of 11,529 in 2011. The village is a Royal Burgh at the confluence of the rivers Ury and Don, about 16 miles (26 km) northwest of Aberdeen on the A96 road, and is served by Inverurie railway station on the Aberdeen to Inverness Line. The nearest airport is Aberdeen Airport at Dyce. Inverurie is said to have been founded by David of Huntingdon, Earl of the Garioch, brother of Malcolm IV, great-great-grandfather of Robert the Bruce, who defeated John Comyn, 3rd Earl of Buchan, nearby at the Battle of Barra in May, 1308. The religious foundation pre-dates this by five centuries with the establishment of the Kirk of Inverurie now known as St Andrew's Parish Church. ('''Source:''' "Gaelic Place-Names of Scotland database". Ainmean-Àite na h-Alba. Retrieved 25 November 2012) Ruined house in Inverurie The town's earliest known charter dates from 1558, with modern development taking place after the building of the Aberdeenshire Canal linking Port Elphinstone with Aberdeen Harbor in 1806. The Inverurie Locomotive Works (1905–1969) led to a modest increase in size and prosperity, but it was not until the "Oil Boom" of the last quarter of the 20th century that the town developed into much of its present form. On a nearby hillside the Easter Aquhorthies, recumbent stone circle dates back to the 3rd Millennium BC. On the outskirts of the town, the Brandsbutt Stone is a class I Pictish symbol stone with an ogham inscription. There have been three well known battles in the town: The Battle of Inverurie (1308), the Battle of Harlaw (1411) between Donald of Islay, Lord of the Isles (MacDonald) and an army commanded by Alexander Stewart, Earl of Mar; and the Battle of Inverurie (1745) during the Jacobite Rebellion of that year.

[[Category: Scotland Project Managed FSPs]] [[Category:Scandinavian Rulers, Viking Age]] [[Category:Kingdom of the Isles]] [[Category: Isle of Man, Nobility]] [[Category:Crovan Dynasty]] {{Profile-box|For profiles, see [[:Category:Kingdom of the Isles|the category]]}} Part of [[:Project:Early_Scandinavia|Early Scandinavia Project]], [[:Project: Norway|Norway Project]] and [[:Project: Scotland|Scotland Project]] The Kingdom of the Isles was a semi-autonomous state under the suzerainty of Norway from the 9th to the 13th Century. It varied in size from time to time as land was won and lost and the title varied depending on the land held. It is unlikely to have been known as a Kingdom until the Norse Crown lost control of the "Kingdom" in the 12th Century. McDonaldMcDonald, R. Andrew (2007) Manx Kingship in its Irish Sea setting, 1187—1229: King Rognavaldr and the Crovan dynasty. Dublin. Four Courts Press. ISBN 978-1-84682-047-2. Page 42. states of Raghnall mac Gofraidh: "Some of his successors were grandly styled Rex Manniae et Insularum, 'King of Man and the Isles' ", implying the title had not been used prior to that time, i.e. the early 13th century and there is no apparent record of such in early Norse Sagas. Rather it seems more likely that the "Kingdom" comprised two, or more, parts, each held by a Jarl. Two appear consistently; as the Suðreyjar, or "Southern Isles", which was run, varyingly , from Mann, Dublin or possibly Islay, and as distinct from Norðreyjar or "Northern Isles" of Orkney, Shetland, the Outer Hebrides and Skye, run out of the Orkneys. There are records in both the Orkney Saga and the Chronicles of Man and the Isles of Jarl's noted in the Hebrides, both inner ad outer, and Viking (Raider) Lords being autonomous and operating throughout the region from time to time. The Kingdom comprised of the Norse holdings of the Orkney, Shetland, Hebrides, Skye, parts of Argyll, islands of the Clyde, Isle of Mann, parts of Ireland, Wales and England from time to time. However, certainly by the 12th Century, Orkney and Shetland were held directly to the Crown in Norway. The historical record is incomplete, and the kingdom was not a continuous entity throughout the entire period. The islands involved have a total land area of over 8,300 square kilometres (3,205 sq mi) and extend for more than 500 kilometres (310 mi) from north to south. The history of the Kingdom is recorded in many of the "Sagas" and, particularly the Suðreyjar, at least in regards to the Crovan Dynasty is concerned, is recorded in Chronica Regum Manniæ et Insularum (Chronicles of the Kings of Mann and the Isles). The Norðreyjar, certainly that relating to Orkney and Shetland, is recorded in the Orkneyinga saga, a Norse saga written around 1230 by an unknown Icelandic author. The Norse Kingdom of the Isles is generally regarded as having ended with the marriage between [[Olafsdatter-5|Ragnhilda Olafsdottir]] and [[Macgillebride-1|Somerled]] with the consequent split of the kingdom between his sons and separation from Norway. The Kingdom finally ended as a result of the Treaty of Perth in 1266 with much of the territory becoming part of the Kingdom of Scotland and the remainder held as an Earldom to Norway. Orkney and other parts of Norðreyjar remained with Norway until the 15th Century. ===Rulers of the Kingdom=== ====9th and early 10th centuries==== {|class="wikitable" width="100%" style="border:1px solid #BBB" | align="center" colspan="4"| '''Kings of Mann and the Isles''' |- !Name !Period !Title !Notes |- | style="border:1px solid #BBB" colspan="4" | |- | style="border:1px solid #BBB" align="center"| Thórir | style="border:1px solid #BBB" align="center"| d: 848 | style="border:1px solid #BBB" align="center"| | style="border:1px solid #BBB" align="center"| |- | style="border:1px solid #BBB" align="center"|'''Gofraid mac Fergusa''' | style="border:1px solid #BBB" align="center"| d: 853 | style="border:1px solid #BBB" align="center"| | style="border:1px solid #BBB" align="center"| |- | style="border:1px solid #BBB" align="center"|'''[[Godfrey-676|Gofraidh]] of Lochlann''' | style="border:1px solid #BBB" align="center"| | style="border:1px solid #BBB" align="center"| | style="border:1px solid #BBB" align="center"| |- | style="border:1px solid #BBB" align="center"|'''[[Unknown-462562|Ímar]]''' | style="border:1px solid #BBB" align="center"| | style="border:1px solid #BBB" align="center"| | style="border:1px solid #BBB" align="center"| |- | style="border:1px solid #BBB" align="center"|'''[[Dublin-16|Amlaíb Conung]]''' | style="border:1px solid #BBB" align="center"|d: 874 | style="border:1px solid #BBB" align="center"| | style="border:1px solid #BBB" align="center"| |- | style="border:1px solid #BBB" align="center"|'''[[Bjørnsson-230|Ketill Flatnose]]''' | style="border:1px solid #BBB" align="center"| d: 880 | style="border:1px solid #BBB" align="center"| | style="border:1px solid #BBB" align="center"| |- | style="border:1px solid #BBB" align="center"|'''Ragnall ua Ímair''' | style="border:1px solid #BBB" align="center"| d: 920-21 | style="border:1px solid #BBB" align="center"| ruled Mann | style="border:1px solid #BBB" align="center"| |- | style="border:1px solid #BBB" align="center"|'''[[Ivarsson-24|Sitric Cáech]]''' | style="border:1px solid #BBB" align="center"| d: 927 | style="border:1px solid #BBB" align="center"| | style="border:1px solid #BBB" align="center"| |- | style="border:1px solid #BBB" align="center"|'''Gofraid ua Ímair''' | style="border:1px solid #BBB" align="center"| d: 949 | style="border:1px solid #BBB" align="center"| | style="border:1px solid #BBB" align="center"| |- | style="border:1px solid #BBB" align="center"|'''Amlaíb mac Gofraid''' | style="border:1px solid #BBB" align="center"| d: 941 | style="border:1px solid #BBB" align="center"| | style="border:1px solid #BBB" align="center"| |- | style="border:1px solid #BBB" align="center"|'''[[Sitricsson-3|Amlaíb Cuarán]]''' | style="border:1px solid #BBB" align="center"| ruled 941-980 | style="border:1px solid #BBB" align="center"| | style="border:1px solid #BBB" align="center"| |- |} ====Late 10th and 11th centuries==== {|class="wikitable" width="100%" style="border:1px solid #BBB" | align="center" colspan="4"| '''Kings of Mann and the Isles''' |- !Name !Period !Title !Notes |- | style="border:1px solid #BBB" colspan="4" | |- | style="border:1px solid #BBB" align="center"|''' Maccus mac Arailt''' | style="border:1px solid #BBB" align="center"| ruled 980 -

Brought up, like David I of Scotland, by Henry I of England, he was strongly influenced by the English court, introducing many popular reforms. Latin became the language of court during his reign. He was murdered by his nephews, in 1153, while his eldest son, Guðrøðr Óláfsson, was in Norway giving allegiance to the Norwegian court. The resulting retribution was fierce, even for the day, giving Guðrøðr Óláfsson the nickname "the Black". Guðrøðr Óláfsson, also known (in Gaelic) as Gofhraidh mac Amhlaíbh, faced a dynastic challenge, one which he lost, from his brother-in-law, [[Macgillebride-1|Somairle mac Gilla Brigte]], Lord of Argyll, whose son, as a grandson of Óláfr, possessed a claim to the throne. Late in 1156, Guðrøðr and Somaile fought an inconclusive sea-battle and partitioned the kingdom of the Isles between them and, in 1158, Somairle defeated Guðrøðr, forcing him to exile. Guðrøðr appears in the kingdoms of England and Scotland before returning to Norway. In 1160/1, he distinguished himself in the Norwegian civil wars and was at the final downfall of Ingi at the Battle of Oslo. Guðrøðr made his return to the Isles in 1164, in the aftermath of Somairle's defeat and death at the hands of the Scots at the Battle of Renfrew. However, although he regained the kingship itself, the territories ceded to Somairle in 1156 were retained by the latter's descendants. ====Kings of Mann and the North Isles (from 1163)==== ====Kings of the South Isles (from 1163)==== ===Sources=== * [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kingdom_of_the_Isles wikipedia - Kingdom of the Isles] * [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rulers_of_the_Kingdom_of_the_Isles Rulers of the Kingdom of the Isles] * [http://www.isle-of-man.com/manxnotebook/manxsoc/msvol22/ Chronicles of the Kings of Mann and the Isles]

It borders onto the Aberdeenshire, Angus, Argyll and Bute, Clackmannanshire, Dundee, Fife, Highland and Stirling council areas. Perth is the administrative center. It corresponds broadly, but not exactly, with the former counties of Perthshire and Kinross-shire. The information for the county follows below. Perthshire and Kinross-shire had a joint county council from 1929 until 1975. The area was created a single district in 1975, in the Tayside region, under the Local Government (Scotland) Act 1973, and then reconstituted as a unitary authority (with a minor boundary adjustment) in 1996, by the Local Government etc. (Scotland) Act 1994.

Scotland's second smallest county, Kinross-shire is dominated by Loch Leven, a large inland loch, with two islands and an internationally important nature reserve. One of the islands contains a castle, where Mary, Queen of Scots was once held prisoner. Much of the land in Kinross-shire is fertile agricultural land and most of the inhabitants were originally employed in farming. The gently-rolling farmland surrounding Loch Leven gives way to steep, more rugged terrain at the outskirts of the county. '''History''' The shire or sheriffdom of Kinross was formed in the thirteenth century when the two parishes of Kinross and Orwell were removed from the Fothriff area of Fife. Cleish, Portmoak and Tullibole were added by act of parliament in 1685.[2][3] As local government in Scotland evolved, Kinross-shire gained a county council in 1890, which was later amalgamated with Perth County Council under the Local Government (Scotland) Act 1929. The county suffered a decline in population in the 19th and 20th centuries, as its inhabitants migrated to the cities to find work in manufacturing, etc. The decline was hastened by the closure of the railways in the county soon after World War II. However, in recent years, construction of the M90 motorway north of the Forth Road Bridge has resulted in the area becoming more prominent. Tourism has increased, with visitors attracted by the unspoiled country villages and gently rolling hills reaching the shores of Loch Leven. The economic outlook of Kinross-shire has improved and outperformed both the Perth and Kinross area and Scotland averages in economic performance.[4] '''References''' 1. http://www.pkc.gov.uk/NR/rdonlyres/DA8FF87D-D891-4EFD-8822-ED80961EA94B/0/06292.pdf 2.

[[Category: Scotland Project Managed FSPs]] [[Category:Kirkcaldy Clan]] ==Clan Kirkcaldy== From the town of Kirkcaldy in Fife. Willilmus de Kyrcaudi was a cleric in Stirling in 1299, in 1331 there are records of money paid to John of Kirkcaldy, and in 1363 Andreas de Kirkcaldy was granted a pension of five merks a year by David II. The Kirkcaldy of Inchture line ended in 1396, when the heiress to John Kirkcaldy of Inchture, Marjory, married the son of Richard Kinnaird of that Ilk, Reginald, and called themselves Kinnaird of Inchture. Simon de Kyrcaldy had land in 'Edynburgche' in 1366 and may be the same Simon who appears as a burgess there in 1392. Andrew Kirkcaldy was scribe of the town council of Dysart in 1535, and 'veneranda mulier Agnes Karcalde' is recorded in the same town in 1540. Sir James Kirkcaldy of Grange was Lord High Treasurer of Scotland during the reign of James V. After the defeat in 1542 to the English at the Battle of Solway Moss, James V visited the Kirkcaldy of Grange home where he, whislt talking to the wife of Sir James Kirkcaldy, predicted his own death. He died at the age of thirty only a matter of weeks later at Falkland Palace in the presence of James and his son William Kirkcaldy. Sir William Kirkcaldy of Grange, son of Sir James, was appointed Keeper of the [Edinburgh] Castle by the Regent Moray, in the name of the infant James VI. He also played a prominent part in the murder of Cardinal Beaton in 1546. During the Lang Siege of Edinburgh Castle, Sir William, who had changed allegiance to the imprisoned Mary, Queen of Scots, try and defend the castle from the forces of the new regent, Earl of Morton. Eventually Kirkcaldy had to surrender the castle, and he was hanged, along with his brother in 1573 at Mercat Cross on the Royal Mile in Edinburgh. In 1664 the family became baronets, but the title became extinct in 1739. :Crest:A man’s head with his face looking upwards Proper :Motto: Fortissima Veritas (Truth is the strongest) :Slogan: :Region: :District: Kirkcaldy, Fife :Plant badge: :Pipe music: :Gaelic name: '''Septs:''' '''Names associated with the clan:''' '''See Also:''' *

''History of the Scottish Celtic Language and a list of Scottish Gaelic Names''
'''History of the Scottish Celtic Language''' Scottish Gaelic (Gàidhlig; (kaːlikʲ) is a Celtic language native to Scotland. A member of the Goidelic branch of the Celtic languages, Scottish Gaelic, like Modern Irish and Manx, developed out of Middle Irish, and thus descends ultimately from Old Irish. The 'traditional' view is that Gaelic language was brought to Scotland, probably in the 4th century, by settlers from Ireland, who founded the Gaelic kingdom of Dál Riata on Scotland's west coast. This is based mostly on medieval writings from the 9th and 10th centuries. However, recently some archeologists have argued against this view, saying that there is no archeological or placename evidence for a migration or a takeover by a small group of elites. In his academic paper Were the Scots Irish?, archeologist Ewan Campbell suggests that in the "maritime province" of northern Ireland and western Scotland, "sea communications dominated, and allowed a shared archaic language to be maintained, isolated from linguistic developments which were taking place east of the Highland massif" Scottish Gaelic developed as an independent language after the 12th century. With the growth of Dál Riata and its use by the church, Scottish Gaelic became the language of most of Scotland, replacing Cumbric in the south and Pictish in the east.The language was maintained by the trade empire of the Lordship of the Isles, which continued to control parts of Ulster until the 16th century. The Gaelic language eventually displaced Pictish north of the River Forth, and until the late 15th century was known in Scots (then known as Inglis) as Scottis, and in England as Scottish. From around the early 16th century, Scots language speakers gave the Gaelic language the name Erse (meaning Irish in Scots), and thereafter it was invariably the collection of Middle English dialects spoken within the Kingdom of Scotland, that they referred to as Scottis (see Scots language). This in itself was ironic, as it was at this time that Gaelic was developing its distinct and characteristic Scottish forms of the modern period. Scottish Gaelic was called "Erse" partly because educated Gaelic speakers in Ireland and Scotland all used the literary dialect (sometimes called Classical Gaelic) so that there was little or no difference in usage. When Classical Gaelic stopped being used in schools in both countries, colloquial usage began to predominate, and the divergence of the two languages became more and more apparent in writing.

[[Category: Scotland Project Managed FSPs]] == Longside == Longside is a village in Aberdeenshire, Scotland, some 7 miles west of Peterhead and 2 1/2 miles east of Mintlaw. Longside consists of a single main street. It lies seven miles inland from Peterhead and two miles from Mintlaw on the A950. The River Ugie flows through it. It lies in the center of what was the ancient parish of Longside, established in 1641 and covering an extensive area. There are a number of listed buildings in the village. During the first World War, the most northerly Royal Navy air station was based within the parish, and there was also an active airfield used during World War II on a different site close to the village. There is considerable evidence of prehistoric activity in the nearby area, most notably in the form of the Catto Long Barrow and numerous tumuli (mounds over graves). The records of the Parliament of Scotland shows an act was passed in November 1641 to allow the erection of a kirk at Longside. A church had previously been sited in Longside dating back to 1620. Almost a century later, following the Penal Act of 1746, the Episcopal Church at Longside was burned down by the Hanoverians. The village was extended by the Laird of Pitfour, James Ferguson (the Member) around 1801 as part of the planned villages development in the area. In 1882, there were two schools recorded at Longside. Longside railway station was part of the rail link between Mintlaw and Peterhead opened to both freight and passengers on 3 July 1862. It was a station on the Formartine and Buchan Railway until the service was terminated as part of the Beeching cuts of the 1960s.

''Lords of Galloway''
=== Before Scotland === {{Image|file=Graphics_for_Scotland-6.png |align=r |size=m }} The map, sourced from Agnew's work, illustrates the relative position of the various tribes influencing Galloway in about the middle of the 8th Century. It was at this time that the Saxon held lands of Northumbria were starting to feel the impact of the "Viking" incursions. Before 800 the Saxons had all but disappeared from Galloway. The invaders, called the Galls,Gaelic for foreigner burned and pillaged along all coasts of Scotland and Ireland. They "overran other districts" as fierce wolves, killing not only sheep and oxen, but choirs of monks and nuns," in Galloway, and there alone, they entered into the closest fellowship with its people, sought their daughters in marriage, and enrolled their sons in their martial ranks." The Norse recruited the Galwegians, enthusiastically it seems, as raiders of the Irish shores. Irish annalists termed them "the foster children of the Norseman," and within a generation of the unholy alliance, Macferbis the Sennachy describes the Galloway Picts as "a people who had renounced their baptism, and had the customs of the Norsemen" ; and bad as those Norsemen had been, the "Gallgaidhel"Skene, Celtic Scotland, also notes that during the latter years of Kenneth's reign, a people appear in close association with the Norwegian pirates, are termed 'Gallgaidhel'. The name was certainly first applied to the people of Galloway. It seems to have been applied to them by the Irish Annals, under the rule of 'Gall' or foreigner. were worse. When [[MacAlpin-12|Kenneth MacAlpin]] came to power and was crowned king of the united Picts and Scots at Scone in 844 it was, without doubt, supported by the Galwegians. Kenneth cemented his alliance with the district by giving his daughter to a Gallgaidhel or Norse chief of the district, Olaf or Amlaiph. There is no question that the Galwegians assisted "Olaf" in the invasion and capture of Dublin and elevated the daughter of Kenneth to Queen on the throne of Dublin. In 852 they invaded Ulster and although initially successful were eventually defeated with "many prisoners remaining in the hands of the victor, with whose heads he formed a ghastly ornament for the palisades of his (the Ulster King) stronghold". By 924 the Galwegians were powerful enough to hold off a Saxon invasion, under Edmund the Elder, from Northumbria and challenge the King of Scotland ([[MacAlpin-43|Constantine]]). By 1000, although still independent, Galloway acknowledged the King in Norway as the overlord. The local Viking "Jarl" was Thorfinn and he resided in Galloway and had married a local lady, although likely already of mixed bloodlines, Ingibiorg. By 1070 the Vikings empire had started to collapse. In Galloway there is notice of the death of Sweyne in 1034 and of Diarmait in 1072 (both recorded as Kings). The lineage to [[Galloway-137|Fergus]] is not clear although he was likely born about 1080.Fergus is known to have died very old, at Holyrood in 1161, yet source material does not place his birth before 1080 (wikitree records it as 1078). His daughter [[Galloway-13|Affrica]] married [[Godredsson-7|Olave the Swarthy]], King of Man, the date unrecorded; but his reign of forty years commenced 1102, and their son, well advanced in life ([[Olafsson-29|Godred]]), succeeded his father in 1142. Hence Fergus's marriage may be placed between 1107 and 1112. === The Lords of Galloway === On the assumption to the throne, in 1124, by David, Scotland was once again united after years of Civil War. David acknowledging the support of Galloway alludes to their unique status in his speach "All good men of my whole kingdom — Scottish, English, Anglo-Norman, and Gallovidians". With David came the Normans and Flemish that had supported him and these occupied his lands in Northumbria. Also with David came Feudalism. The ruler in Galloway was Fergus. A man of considerable status he was already married to the daughter, [[FitzHenry-35|Elizabeth]], of David's mentor and supporter, King [[Normandie-45|Henry I]], of England. Fergus was also brother in law to King [[Dunkeld-32|Alexander]], David's brother, through his marriage to Henry's sister, [[Normandie-90|Sybilla]]. Agnew records that "Fergus was a ruler of great force of character, and decidedly in advance of his age; he carried out great changes, social and political, all in the direction of sound progress, with a firm hand and a princely liberality which well entitle him to be remembered as enlightened and patriotic. Feudalism, which he may be said to have introduced, was much more calculated to ensure strong and settled government than the customs of Tanistry". His line was the last to appear on record as Kings of Galloway. It will die out in the male line in Alan, Lord of Galloway who dies in 1234 without male heir. The Lordship of Galloway, by feudal law, passing jointly to his three daughters, and the Constableship of Scotland, acquired through marriage, to the husband of the eldest, [[Galloway-198|Heleun]] (Ellen). John de Balliol, through his marriage to the second sister, [[Galloway-1276|Dervorguilla]], acquiring the estates of Galloway.

[[Category: Scotland Project Managed FSPs]] [[Category:Clan MacDonald]] ==Tartans in general== Most Scottish clans and large Scottish families have had their own tartan since early in the 19th century. In 1815 the Highland Society of London (founded 1778) resolved that all the clan chiefs each "be respectfully solicited to furnish the society with as much of the tartan of his Lordship's Clan as will serve to show the pattern and to authenticate the same by attaching thereunto a card bearing the impression of his Lordship's Arms." If you have a Scottish surname there’s a good chance you will have an associated tartan if not more than one. If you are a MacDonald but your mother was a Maclean or your grandmother was a Fraser its perfectly acceptable for you to wear any of those tartans “setts” (the arrangement of thread colours that make up the pattern). As a matter of fact it’s ok to wear any tartan, whether or not you have an affiliation with the family or not provided the tartan is not 'restricted'. Some tartans have some restrictions imposed upon their wearing such as some Royal tartans that can only be worn by members of the British Royal. A Chief's tartans should only be worn by the chief of the clan and his family, the only exception being when there is no appointed chief of the clan. Among the various tartans you will see terms such as ‘ancient’, ‘modern’, ‘weathered’, 'hunting' etc, these names refer to the thread colours. Ancient tartans are dyed to approximate the colours produced by vegetable dyes, modern tartan thread colours use the more vibrant colours of synthetic dyes introduced in the 19th century whereas weathered tartans reproduce the effects of sun bleaching or general weathering on fabric. Hunting tartans will use more earthy tones such as greens and dark blues. Note: The tartans displayed below have been reproduced electronically and the colours are approximate. ==MacDonald Tartans== Scottish Register of tartans lists no fewer than 58 tartans for MacDonald http://www.tartanregister.gov.uk/qresults.aspx?searchString=macdonald&Page=1 The following are just some of the many MacDonald Tartans.

This "modern sett", (pattern), is the most recognized Clan Donald tartan. It is available in modern colors, ancient colors, and muted colors, but they all share the same tartan weave. ''Scottish Tartans Society notes:'' This is oldest recorded version of the Clan sett. It varies slightly from those recorded by Logan, Smibert, Grant etc, but the motif is the same throughout. Of the nine independent branches of the Clan Donald, there are at least 27 different setts. It was not until 1947 that the MacDonalds again had a high chief, MacDhomnuill, who by tradition has the final word on the tartans of the clan. That right was granted to Alexander MacDonald of MacDonald whose son Godfrey is now the 8th Chief. Green lightened to show sett.

[[Category: Scotland Project Managed FSPs]] [[Category:Marquesses in the Peerage of Scotland]] '''Marquesses in the Peerage of Scotland''' The title of Marquess is said to derive from from the Italian word marchese, the ruler of a march or border territory. Certainly the local lords who guarded the Welsh and Scottish marches were collectively known as "lords marcher", but whether this had any connection with the origin of the second highest rank of the peerage remains doubtful. The first use of the title in Scotland was when James, second son of King James III, was created Marquess of Ormonde at his baptism in 1476. Twenty years later he was created Duke of Ross, Marquess of Ormonde and Earl of Edirdale. The first creations outside the Scottish Royal Family was on 17 April 1599 King James VI celebrated the christening of his daughter with the promotion of two earls to marquessates: Huntly, which still survives, and Hamilton. There were a further nine Scottish marquessates, the last being created in 1706 when the English Earl of Lindsey was a created a Scottish Marquess under the same title. The 1st Marquess of Lindsey was created Duke of Ancaster and Kesteven in 1715, and both marquessate and dukedom became extinct on the death of the 4th Duke of Ancaster and Kesteven in 1779.

[[Category: Scotland Project Managed FSPs]] ==Maud (Gaelic: ''Am Mòd'')== Maud is a small town in the Buchan area of Aberdeenshire. Located 13 miles west of Peterhead on the South Ugie Water, Maud rose to prosperity in the 19th Century as a railway junction of the Formartine and Buchan Railway that ran through Maud to Fraserburgh and Peterhead. It has always been the meeting place of six roads. Through the years, it has had a variety of names: Bank of Behitch, Brucklay, and New Maud The local area to the immediate south is rich with prehistory and historical features. There are a number of prehistoric monuments, including Catto Long Barrow, Silver Cairn, and numerous tumuli (grave mounds). In the same vicinity of the Laeca Burn watershed is the point where troops assembled for historic battles between invading Danes and indigenous Picts.

[[Category: Scotland Project Managed FSPs]] ==Mintlaw== Mintlaw (literally meaning a smooth, flat place) is a large village in Aberdeenshire, lying along the A952 road. As the largest settlement within 11 miles, it supports a number of shops and local amenities, such as a police station, library, dental surgery, and group doctors' practice. The local area is rich with prehistory and historical features. To the south of Mintlaw are a number of prehistoric monuments, including Catto Long Barrow, Silver Cairn and many tumuli (burial mounds). In that same vicinity of the Laeca Burn watershed is the point of assembly for soldiers in historic battles between invading Danes and indigenous Picts. Mintlaw was formed as a planned village around 1813 by James Ferguson, the 3rd Laird of Pitfour. Unlike many of the other planned villages of the time, trees lined the streets and, instead of having a square at the center of the village, it was diamond-shaped. It was later re-designed to become a roundabout on the main route between Aberdeen and Fraserburgh. Victorian times saw the coming of the railway, the Maud to Peterhead line being built in the 1860s. Mintlaw was a scheduled stop on this line. The Post Office moved to be closer to the railway and became a Crown Office. Mintlaw Station was the postal address for the whole district for many years. The Crown Post Office was combined with that in Peterhead with the closure of the railway in the 1960s. Telephone numbers, too, were Mintlaw Station until the early 1970s when the word Station was dropped. Although the date of the village's founding is not known for certain, 2013 was marked as its bicentenary year. [[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mintlaw]]

[[Category: Scotland Project Managed FSPs]] ==New Deer (Scottish Gaelic: ''Achadh Reite'')== New Deer is a settlement in Aberdeenshire that lies in the valley of Deer. It was founded after monks from Deer Abbey, Old Deer, built a chapel at Auchreddie. Around 1507, the register of Deer Abbey lists its lands in the "new paroche of Deir". The name Auchreddie has dropped in significance over the years, but the southern end of the village is still known by this name. In 1805, New Deer was extended to the north by the third James Ferguson of Pitfour (1735–1820), the elder brother of Patrick Ferguson. [[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/New_Deer]]

[[Category: Scotland Project Managed FSPs]] ==Oldmeldrum (Scottish Gaelic: ''Meall Druim'')== Oldmeldrum (commonly known as Meldrum) is a village and parish in the Formartine area of Aberdeenshire, not far from Inverurie. Oldmeldrum falls within Scotland's top 300 centers of population. Oldmeldrum is home to one of the oldest whisky distilleries in Scotland, Glen Garioch, built in 1797. Local industries are agriculture and engineering services connected to the oil industry in Aberdeen. The Battle of Barra was fought in May, 1308, near the Hill of Barra between the armies of Scots King Robert Bruce and John Comyn, 3rd Earl of Buchan. Oldmeldrum was made a burgh of barony in 1672. The parish of Meldrum was known as "Bethelnie" until 1684. It was a centre of the hosiery trade in the 18th century. The A947 road from Aberdeen to Banff runs through the centre of the village. Old Meldrum railway station served Oldmeldrum on a line from Inverurie through Lethenty and Lochter until 1965. [[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oldmeldrum]]

[[Category: Scotland Project Managed FSPs]] King William the Lion bestowed the church of Kulter upon the Abbey and monks of St Mary of Kelso, sometime between 1165–1199. The gift was later confirmed by Mathew, Bishop of Aberdeen. Between 1287–1288, an agreement was made between the Abbot and Convent of Kelso and the Knights of Jerusalem, regarding the Templar lands of Blairs and Kincolsi (Kincousie), where a chapel, built by the Templars at their house of Culter, was recognised as a church. Parochial rights were granted for the inhabitants of the lands. It was this agreement that divided the existing parish of Culter into two separate parishes: Peterculter, and Maryculter.

[[Category: Scotland Project Managed FSPs]] == Peterhead (Scottish Gaelic: ''Ceann Phàdraig''; Scots: ''Peterheid, The Blue Toun)''== Peterhead is the largest settlement in Aberdeenshire, with an estimated population of 17,790 in 2011. It is the coastal town furthest east in Aberdeenshire, lying about 30 miles north northeast of Aberdeen and 17 miles south southeast of Fraserburgh. Peterhead was founded by fishermen and developed as a planned settlement. In 1593, the construction of Peterhead's first harbor, Port Henry, encouraged the growth of Peterhead as a fishing port and established a base for trade. Peterhead was a Jacobite town in the Jacobite risings of 1715 and 1745. In particular, it was one of the Episcopalian ports where reinforcements, plus money and equipment, landed from France during the Forty-Five. A lifeboat station was first established in 1865. Since early times, Peterhead has received a portion of its water supply from Morris Wells. Peterhead convict prison was opened in 1888, gaining a reputation as one of Scotland's toughest prisons. The present harbor has two massive breakwaters, enclosing an area of approximately 300 acres in Peterhead Bay. The south breakwater, about 2700 ft long, was constructed in 1892–1912 using convict labor from the prison. The north breakwater, constructed 1912–56, is approximately 1500 ft long. New growth began in the 1970's, with Peterhead becoming a major oil industry service center, and the completion of the nearby St Fergus gas terminal. At the time, considerable land holdings were allocated for industrial development.

[[Category: Scotland Project Managed FSPs]] ==Portlethen (Scottish Gaelic: Port Leathain)== Portlethen is the seventh largest town in Aberdeenshire, with a population of 7,327 in 2011. It is located approximately 7 miles south of Aberdeen along the A90. To the east of Portlethen lie three fishing villages: Findon, Downies and Portlethen Village ( Old Portlethen). Although Portlethen has been granted official town status, it resembles a residential suburb without a clear 'town center' or focal point. Portlethen was originally a small fishing village. The harbor is located in what is now Old Portlethen, the original village on the coast about a half a mile east from Portlethen Parish Church. Portlethen lies about two kilometres east of the ancient Causey Mounth road, which was built on high ground to make passable this only available medieval route across the Mounth from coastal points south to Aberdeen. This ancient passage specifically connected the Bridge of Dee with Muchalls Castle and Stonehaven to the south. The route was taken by William Keith, 7th Earl Marischal, and James Graham, 1st Marquess of Montrose, when they led a Covenanter army of 9000 men in the first battle of the Civil War in 1639. Portlethen has expanded very rapidly. In the 1980's, a new retail park was constructed. Portlethen is still continuing to expand into a sizable town. [[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aberdeenshire]]

[[Category: Scotland Project Managed FSPs]] ==Portsoy (Scottish Gaelic: Port Saoidh)== Portsoy is located on the Moray Firth Coast of NorthEast Scotland, 50 miles NorthWest of Aberdeen & 65 miles East of Inverness. From the 16th Century until 1975, Portsoy was in the civil and religious parish of Fordyce. It lost its status as a burgh in 1975 and became a part of the District of Banff And Buchan. In 1996, administration was transferred to the Aberdeenshire council area. The "Old" Harbor dates to the 17th century and is the oldest on the Moray Firth. The "New" Harbor was built in 1825 for the growing herring fishery, which at its peak reached 57 boats. [[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Portsoy]]

[[Category: Scotland Project Managed FSPs]] Return to [[Space: The_Witches_of_Scotland|The_Witches_of_Scotland]] === Introduction === This is a study by the [https://www.wikitree.com/wiki/Space:The_Witches_of_Scotland Scotland Project Witchcraft Team]. We aim to trace the precursor events that led to the witchcraft trials in Scotland during the late 1500s and early 1600s. By achieving this objective, we seek to enhance historical knowledge to support the Scotland Project's mission to become a knowledge hub for Scotland genealogical research, ultimately increasing membership engagement and understanding of this critical aspect of Scotland's past. All pre-1700 certified members of the Scotland Project Witchcraft Team are invited to participate in this research by updates here. Not a member yet? Contact Team Co-leader [[Crawford-15512|Amy]] or [[Stevens-17832|Jen]]. (Kindly prioritize the use of primary sources over secondary sources like Wikipedia when providing updates.) === Collaboration === The exploration of the history of witchcraft persecutions sparks fervent debates due to numerous attributions, ranging from religious and societal factors to medical and cultural influences. Despite our best efforts, reaching a unanimous conclusion on the causes remains unlikely. As we delve into these sensitive issues together, let’s keep in mind our Honor Code’s emphasis on courtesy and understanding, especially in the face of inevitable misunderstandings. === What is a Witch? === While the belief in witchcraft dates back to ancient times, with examples like the ''mašmašu'' in Mesopotamia (3200 BCE), Oppenheim, A. Leo, Ancient Mesopotamia: portrait of a dead civilization, Chicago: University of Chicago Press (1964), p. 81, https://archive.org/details/ancientmesopotam0000unse/page/80/mode/1up?q=mašmašu the ''Witch of Endor'' in the Hebrew Bible (1150 BCE), ''New Revised Standard Version Bible,'' Online edition, orémus Bible Browser, National Council of the Churches of Christ in the United States of America, (1989), [https://bible.oremus.org/?ql=555561864 1 Samuel 28:3–25]. and the ''strix'' or ''stregae'' in Ancient Rome (300 BCE). Levack, Brian P., ''The Witchcraft Sourcebook.'' Second Edition. Kindle Edition. London and New York: Routledge (2015), p. 100.Goodare, Julian et al. ''Survey of Scottish Witchcraft,'' Revised by Brewster, Kaye. Edinburgh: The University of Edinburgh (2003), http://www.shca.ed.ac.uk/Research/witches//. According to the Malleus Maleficarum, “The great persecutions of sorcery that lasted from the fifteenth until the early seventeenth centuries were based upon a new notion of sorcery that can be termed “satanism” (or “diabolism”). This view saw the supposed “witch” as participating in a malevolent society presided over by Satan himself and dedicated to the infliction of malevolent acts of sorcery (maleficia) on others. This new conception is known in modern scholarship as the “elaborated concept of witchcraft,” which is characterized by six basic beliefs about the activities of those considered guilty of this form of sorcery: (1) A pact entered into with the Devil (and concomitant apostasy from Christianity), (2) Sexual relations with the Devil, (3) Aerial flight for the purpose of attending: (4) An assembly presided over by Satan himself (at which initiates entered into the pact, and incest and promiscuous sex were engaged in by the attendees), (5) The practice of maleficent magic, (6) The slaughter of babies.” MacKay, Christopher S., ''The Hammer of Witches; A Complete Translation of the Malleus Maleficarum'', Kindle edition, Cambridge, New York, Melbourne, Madrid, Cape Town, Singapore, São Paulo, Delhi, Mexico City: Cambridge University Press (2009), p. 19. It is important to emphasize that the term "witch" is used to refer to individuals who were suspected or accused of practicing witchcraft. However, in modern understanding, there is no historical evidence to support the existence of actual witches. Goodare, Julian. ''The European Witch-Hunt.'' Kindle edition. London and New York: Routledge, (2016). pp. 17-22.Levack, Brian P., The Witchcraft Sourcebook. Second Edition. Kindle Edition. London and New York: Routledge (2015), pps. 103, 348–3499, 375–376. === More Women Than Men === {{Image|file=Precursor_Events-9.jpg |align=r |size=m |caption=Le Sabbat des sorcières. }} In Scotland, the common perception of women was closely linked to witchcraft, associating them with characteristics and behaviors seen as evidence of sorcery. They were often viewed as argumentative, prone to cursing, and involved in the mysterious realms of birth and death. This strong association between witches and women was particularly evident in cases of magical cursing. However, not all aspects of women's lives directly correlated with witchcraft. While women were seen as sexual beings, this connection did not align closely with the depiction of demonic witches in folklore. Village witches, for instance, were not typically sexually active like the stereotypical witches portrayed in stories. Despite this, the persecution of witches in Scotland targeted specific types of women, including those considered quarrelsome, sexually transgressive, or superstitious. While some men, like witch-priests or werewolves, were also targeted, their numbers were relatively smaller. During the early modern period in Scotland, male witches were exceptional, whereas female witches were considered more commonplace. This disparity meant that if you were a man, you could be relatively confident that witches were other people, and accusations of witchcraft were limited to specific categories. However, as a woman in Scotland during that time, there was a constant sense of uncertainty, as any woman could easily be accused of being a witch. In the context of Scotland, the intensity of the witch-hunt from 1561 to 1727 is evident, with a significant number of people suspected and accused of witchcraft. Remarkably, 84% of those accused were women, surpassing the European average of 80%. This highlights the extreme persecution of accused witches in Scotland, and its execution rate of accused witches per capita ranks among the highest in Europe. Goodare, Julian. ''The European Witch-Hunt.'' Kindle edition. London and New York: Routledge, (2016). pp. 458-528.Levack, Brian P., The Witchcraft Sourcebook. Second Edition. Kindle Edition. London and New York: Routledge (2015), pps. 102-104. Willumsen, Liv Helene. ''The voices of women in witchcraft trials: Northern Europe.'' Kindle edition. London: Routledge, Taylor & Francis Group (2022), p. 139. === Witch-Hunting === Scotland experienced an intense concentration of witch-hunting from the early modern period, with notable prominence in northern Europe. Despite being one of the few “Extreme' states,” Scotland saw considerable witch-hunting, with a significant number of people suspected and accused of witchcraft. This focus on Scotland highlights its exceptional role in the history of witch-hunting, despite the broader trends in German-speaking lands and nearby French-speaking regions. The intensity of witch-hunting in Scotland makes it a notable case study in the historical context of witchcraft persecution. Goodare, Julian. ''The European Witch-Hunt.'' Kindle edition. London and New York: Routledge, (2016). p. 73.Levack, Brian P., The Witchcraft Sourcebook. Second Edition. Kindle Edition. London and New York: Routledge (2015), pps. 191-192. === Torture During Interrogation === Defendants were often interrogated under torture, and if found guilty, they faced punishment and had their property requisitioned to cover legal and prison costs. The execution of torture involved the inquisitor, a doctor, a secretary, and the executioner, applying the methods to the naked prisoner (excluding women). The Church's Bull Ad Extirpanda in 1252 allowed limited use of torture, always with a doctor present to avoid endangering life. The methods included strappado (lifting the victim by tied arms), the rack (pressing the prisoner on a frame), and the water cure (pouring water down the throat). The Catholic Church maintained that torture was only used exceptionally and the inquisitorial procedure was regulated. Torture could not endanger life or cause the loss of a limb, and it was only applied once if the defendant seemed to be lying. The Church did not endorse all civil methods of torture, and defendants had to be prosecuted for serious crimes with well-founded suspicions of guilt. Levack, Brian P., The Witchcraft Sourcebook. Second Edition. Kindle Edition. London and New York: Routledge (2015), ” p. 133. citing, “The primary concern of the literature on legal procedures in witchcraft cases was the use of judicial torture. This procedure began to be introduced into the ecclesiastical and secular courts of most European countries in the thirteenth century, and in some but not all jurisdictions it was routinely used to interrogate witches. The purpose of torture was to obtain confessions when the testimony of eye-witnesses could not be produced. Its use was regulated by a number of rules regarding the intensity and duration of the torture, but in their eagerness to obtain convictions many judicial officials often violated those rules on the grounds that witchcraft was an exceptional crime that had to be prosecuted at all costs.” Goodare, Julian. ''The European Witch-Hunt.'' Kindle edition. London and New York: Routledge, (2016). pp. 353-360. === Burning at the Stake === During the Middle Ages, the Catholic Church saw widespread use of cruel punishments, including the death penalty. Burning at the stake, inherited from ancient Rome, was a particularly gruesome form of punishment. European laws permitted burning at the stake for unbelievers, heretics, witches, and sorcerers. Scotland witnessed a fervent wave of witchcraft prosecutions, leading to numerous victims. However, the Church itself did not carry out capital punishment. Clerics were forbidden from shedding blood, and the Church's role was limited to identifying offenses. The decision and execution of punishments, including capital ones, were the responsibility of the civil authorities. In some cases, particularly during the witch trials, it was common for the condemned individuals to be strangled or hanged before being burned at the stake. Levack, Brian P., The Witchcraft Sourcebook. Second Edition. Kindle Edition. London and New York: Routledge (2015), ” p. 191. citing, “Between 1400 and 1750 perhaps as many as 100,000 persons were tried for the crime of witchcraft in Europe and colonial North America. Approximately half of those alleged witches were executed, many by burning at the stake. Most of the trials, especially those after 1580, when the most intense period of witch-hunting began, took place in the secular courts, which administered justice in kingdoms, principalities, counties, and towns. Ecclesiastical courts had taken a major role in witch-hunting during the fifteenth century, and they continued to conduct some prosecutions after that time, but many of those trials were for practicing lesser forms of magic and superstition. Cases involving serious maleficia, such as causing the illness or death of a person, were usually held in the secular courts, which had a more clearly defined jurisdiction and greater procedural latitude." Wilhelm, Joseph. "Heresy." The Catholic Encyclopedia. Vol. 7. New York: Robert Appleton Company (1910), citing, “The burning of heretics was first decreed in the eleventh century. The Synod of Verona (1184) imposed on bishops the duty to search out the heretics in their dioceses and to hand them over to the secular power. Other synods, and the Fourth Lateran Council (1215) under Pope Innocent III, repeated and enforced this decree, especially the Synod of Toulouse (1229), which established inquisitors in every parish (one priest and two laymen). Everyone was bound to denounce heretics, the names of the witnesses were kept secret; after 1243, when Innocent IV sanctioned the laws of Emperor Frederick II and of Louis IX against heretics, torture was applied in trials; the guilty persons were delivered up to the civil authorities and actually burnt at the stake.” [http://www.newadvent.org/cathen/07256b.htm Heresy].

The notorious North Berwick witch trials that took place between 1590 and 1592 saw children, (* ''source needed)'', including those as young as seven years old, facing accusations of being witches and participating in alleged acts of sorcery. Adding to the tragic treatment of children during this period, the Pendle witch trials in England in 1612 saw children as young as nine among those accused and put to death for witchcraft. Similarly, the case of Anne Hauldecoeur, a seven-year-old girl convicted of witchcraft in the Spanish Netherlands in 1614, experienced years of imprisonment before her execution at the age of twelve in 1619. The Würzburg panic of 1627-1629 serves as a poignant example, where 41 children were executed alongside 119 adults. Another distressing case occurred in Franche-Comté in 1629, where two child witches, aged seven and nine, were convicted alongside their parents and forced to participate in their parents' punishment by throwing sticks onto the pyre. The 'Zauberer-Jackl' trials in the Salzburg region between 1675 and 1690 were notorious, resulting in the execution or death in custody of 124 individuals. Significantly, a significant number of those executed or who died in custody were boys and young men between the ages of ten and twenty. These harrowing cases illustrate the extreme and unjust consequences of the witch-hunting frenzy, extending its tragic impact to children as well, not only in Scotland but across various regions throughout history.

London and New York: Routledge, (2016). pp. 498-502. === Witchcraft in Antiquity (prior to 500)=== Witchcraft in antiquity refers to the practice and belief in magical and occult powers that existed in ancient civilizations. Various ancient cultures, such as the Greeks, Romans, Egyptians, and Mesopotamians, held beliefs in witchcraft and the existence of individuals who could harness supernatural forces for both beneficial and harmful purposes. In these ancient societies, witchcraft was often associated with rituals, spells, potions, divination, and communication with spirits or deities. While there were individuals who practiced witchcraft and were considered skilled in magic, there were also negative connotations associated with witches, as they were sometimes seen as threats to society and accused of causing harm or misfortune. Witchcraft in antiquity was a complex and diverse phenomenon, encompassing a range of practices, beliefs, and social attitudes. It played a significant role in the spiritual, religious, and cultural fabric of ancient civilizations, shaping beliefs about the supernatural and the forces that governed the world.

London and New York: Routledge (2015), pps. 5-27. === Significant Trends, Medieval Period (500-1500) === '''Church Prosecutions of of Heretics, Europe (1000-1580).''' The Church's prosecutions of heretics had far-reaching implications. It bolstered religious authority by enforcing conformity to Church teachings. These actions also influenced political power, as exemplified by the Albigensian Crusade, which allowed secular powers to assert control over regions and resources. The cultural impact was significant, erasing alternative beliefs and traditions, such as the loss of Cathar practices. Moreover, the establishment of the Inquisition as a religious court system solidified control and further enforced orthodoxy. Goodare, Julian. ''The European Witch-Hunt.'' Kindle edition.

'''''Canon Episcopi'' (906).''' A medieval church document that addresses the issue of witchcraft and challenges the belief in the reality of witches and their ability to perform supernatural acts. The Canon Episcopi argues that such beliefs are rooted in superstition and should not be given credence by the Church. It served as an influential text in shaping the Church's stance on witchcraft during the medieval period. Levack, Brian P., The Witchcraft Sourcebook. Second Edition. Kindle Edition. London and New York: Routledge (2015), pps. 35–37. '''Orléans heresy, Orléans, France (1022), heretics burned alive.''' Robert II of France and the Council of Orléans charged and sentenced a group of Cathari heretics to death for their defiance of the Church's teachings. They were excommunicated, and except for two members, confined to a cottage outside the city walls and burned to death. This first burning of heretics ordered by Church authorities is a grim example of the Church's response to individuals deemed heretical during the medieval period. Hutton, Ronald.

Catharism was a Christian heretical sect that emerged in the medieval period in the Languedoc region of France, characterized by dualism and the rejection of traditional Christian teachings. The Church responded to the threat posed by Catharism by mounting a collective defense against such significant challenges to orthodoxy. Pope Alexander III dispatched Cardinal-Legate Peter to Toulouse, France, exemplifying the Church's determination to uphold orthodoxy, centralize heresy suppression, intensify persecution, and collaborate with secular authorities.

'''''Ad abolendam,'' Pope Lucius III (1184).''' A papal bull aimed to abolish heresy, strengthen the Roman Church's authority, and listed heretical sects such as Cathars, Humiliati, Waldensians, Arnoldists, and Josephines. It imposed excommunication on heretics and their supporters, and those accused of heresy faced penalties from secular authorities. Bishops were instructed to find heretics, and the public was required to report heretical activity. It's important to note that this bull did not establish the Inquisition; that happened later in 1234 under Pope Gregory IX. Peters, Edward. ''The Inquisition: A History.''

Simon de Montfort led the Albigensian Crusade (1209-1229) against the Cathars, a religious sect in southern France with differing beliefs from the Catholic Church. Pope Innocent III aimed to eradicate this heresy and regain Catholic control. With the support of northern French nobility, Simon de Montfort led the campaign, capturing cities like Béziers and Carcassonne. The massacre in Béziers resulted in the deaths of thousands, regardless of their religious affiliation. The Crusade weakened the Cathars but persecution by the Inquisition continued, resulting in the execution of heretics in the region. Peters, Edward. ''The Inquisition: A History.''

A medieval German priest and nobleman known for his involvement in the suppression of heresy and his zealous defense of the church. According to historical accounts, he was known for his harsh and unjust methods, often accepting accusations without proper evidence. Pope Gregory IX granted him special privileges in investigating heresy, but his reputation as an overly harsh judge spread throughout Europe. Konrad von Marburg met his demise in 1233 when he was attacked and killed by several knights, along with his assistant Gerhard Lutzelkolb.

''The European Witch-Hunt.'' Kindle edition. London and New York: Routledge, (2016). p. 83. '''The Little Ice Age (1350-1850).''' had a profound impact on witch-hunting. Cooling temperatures posed challenges for agriculture, leading to crop failures, food shortages, and economic hardships that created fear and uncertainty. As a result, witch-hunts gained momentum as people sought to blame witches for the changing climate and associated disasters. This belief in witches as scapegoats was fueled by the idea that they caused misfortunes and crop failures through their alleged association with dark forces. Fagan, Bryan, ''The Little Ice Age: How Climate Made History 1300-1850,'' New York: Hachette Book Group (2000), p. 130, citing, “As climatic conditions deteriorated, a lethal mix of misfortunes descended on a growing European population. Crops failed and cattle perished by diseases caused by abnormal weather. Famine followed famine bringing epidemics in their train, bread riots and general disorder brought fear and distrust. Witchcraft accusations soared, as people accused their neighbors of fabricating bad weather. Lutheran orthodoxy called the cold and deep snowfall on Leipzig in 1562 a sign of God’s wrath at human sin, but the church’s bulwark against accusations of witchcraft began to crumble when climatic shifts caused poor harvests, food dearths, and cattle diseases.” '''''Directorium inquisitorum,'' (Directory for Inquisitors), Nicolau Eymeric (1376).'''

Accused individuals faced investigations, interrogations, and often execution. The Pope's letter mentions Christians and Jews involved in sorcery, seen as corrupting the Christian population. It emphasizes the Church's role in combating heresy and granting authority to the Pope and Inquisition to suppress religious groups contrary to Christianity.

'''Church accused Waldensian heretics of sorcery, Lyon, Kingdom of Burgundy-Arles (1430).''' In the 1430s, Waldensians faced accusations of attending 'synagogues' and practicing magic. The persecution escalated, labeling them as diabolic witches engaged in Satan worship and sorcery. Through coercive interrogation and torture, confessions were obtained, confessing relationships with the devil, obscene acts, denial of God, and desecration of holy objects. The notion of a diabolic 'synagogue' intensified the horror, incorporating anti-heretical elements like orgies, infanticide, and cannibalism. This shift marked a transition in the Church's persecution, depicting heretics as deviating from Christian doctrine while also engaging in sorcery and having connections to Satan. Levack, Brian P.

In December of that year, Pope Innocent VIII's papal bull Summis desiderantes affectibus authorized two inquisitors, Heinrich Kramer (Institoris) and Jacob Sprenger, to identify, imprison, and prosecute witches in southwestern Germany and parts of Austria.

This religious movement resulted in the separation of the Church of England from the authority of the pope. Following the establishment of the new church, some English church leaders embraced witch hunting. The English Reformation was later solidified and completed during the reign of Queen Elizabeth I, Henry VIII's daughter with Anne Boleyn. '''''English Witchcraft Act of 1542'' enacted death penalty'''. The first anti-witchcraft law in England was the Witchcraft Act of 1542, enacted during King Henry VIII's reign. It criminalized various witchcraft practices and imposed the death penalty for those convicted of using witchcraft to harm others. This law marked the beginning of a series of witchcraft-related legislation in England, eventually replaced by the Witchcraft Act of 1735. Levack, Brian P. (ed.)

Oxford, UK: Oxford University Press (2013), p. 288, citing, “In 1542 Henry VIII introduced the first Witchcraft Act, part of a legislative programme to establish the Tudor state. Death was prescribed for conjuring spirits, attempting to hurt or kill, finding treasure, and provoking love.” '''The Holy Office, also called the Roman Inquisition (1542-1965).''' was established during the Reformation to combat Protestantism. It conducted secret investigations and looked into cases of witchcraft. Unlike other witch hunts, it employed a relatively milder approach, with moderate use of torture and the death penalty. After the eighteenth century, the Holy Office shifted its focus and used more peaceful means to enforce Roman Catholicism. It ceased hunting witches and its activities evolved over time.

It provides a comprehensive exploration of these phenomena from both legal and philosophical standpoints, expanding the understanding and interpretation of witchcraft during that era. Bodin's work played a significant role in reinforcing the prevailing belief that witchcraft posed a real and perilous threat to society, fueling the widespread witch trials and persecutions of the time. Furthermore, his meticulous legal analysis left a lasting impact on subsequent works on witchcraft and contributed to the development of early modern demonology.Bodin, Jean.

James VI's visit to Denmark in 1589 heightened his interest in witchcraft due to the prevalent witch-hunts and his interpretation of stormy weather as magical. Upon his return to Scotland, he attended the North Berwick witch trials, where Agnes Sampson and John Fian were convicted of using witchcraft against James' ship. This fueled James' obsession with witches. He accused his cousin, Francis Stewart, of witchcraft and hunted down witches with royal commissions, personally supervising torture. In 1597, James wrote the Daemonologie, opposing witchcraft and inspiring Shakespeare's Macbeth. His witchcraft policies diverted suspicion from male homosociality to women, limiting their political influence. James' views on witchcraft became more skeptical over time, and he revoked standing commissions on witchcraft in the same year as his book's publication. Goodare, Julian. ''The European Witch-Hunt.''

The notion persisted that witches forged a pact with the Devil, and in doing so, received a distinctive mark on their bodies. This mark was believed to be impervious to pain and incapable of bleeding. The accused person’s body would be thoroughly examined by the authorities, often by women called “witch-prickers” who were tasked with identifying these marks. A witch-pricker (needle or bodkin) would be used to prick various areas of the body, and if the person did not react with pain, it was taken as evidence of their guilt as a witch. Calvinist communities in Geneva and Scotland were particularly zealous in this pursuit, possibly due to their strong emphasis on the diabolical aspect of witchcraft.” Levack, Brian P., The Witch-Hunt in Early Modern Europe, Fourth edition, Kindle edition, New York: Routledge (2016). p. 47. '''North Berwick Witch Trials, East Lothian, Scotland (1590).''' A series of infamous witch trials that had a significant impact on the region. These trials were one of the most notable episodes of witch persecution in Scottish history. The trials were sparked by accusations of witchcraft and sorcery against several individuals, primarily women, in the town of North Berwick and its surrounding areas. The accused were believed to have conspired with the devil, engaged in satanic rituals, and caused harm to others through their supposed supernatural powers. The trials gained momentum when King James VI of Scotland (later King James I of England) became personally involved and took a keen interest in the proceedings. He even wrote a book, "Daemonologie," which discussed the nature of witchcraft and provided a theological justification for the persecution of witches. The trials resulted in numerous confessions obtained through torture, and many individuals were convicted and executed for their alleged involvement in witchcraft. The impact of the North Berwick Witch Trials extended beyond the immediate period, as they contributed to the overall atmosphere of fear and suspicion surrounding witchcraft in Scotland and influenced subsequent witch trials in the country. These trials were a reflection of the prevailing beliefs and fears of the time, where witchcraft was seen as a grave threat to society. However, in the centuries that followed, attitudes towards witchcraft and the persecution of alleged witches changed, leading to a broader recognition of the unjust nature of such trials and the suffering inflicted upon innocent individuals.

In 1611, the social impact of these specific verses from the King James Version of the Bible was significant. During that time, there was widespread belief in the existence of witches and the fear of witchcraft was prevalent. These verses were often interpreted literally and were used to justify the persecution and execution of individuals accused of practicing witchcraft. The fear of witches and the enforcement of laws based on these biblical verses resulted in a period commonly known as the "witch-hunting era." Accusations of witchcraft were taken seriously, and trials were conducted to determine the guilt or innocence of the accused. Many individuals, primarily women, were falsely accused, leading to their imprisonment, torture, and execution. The social impact of these verses, combined with the prevailing beliefs and fears of the time, fueled a climate of paranoia and suspicion. It created a societal environment in which people lived in fear of being accused of witchcraft and where witch trials were seen as a means to protect the community from perceived evil. Over time, attitudes towards witchcraft and the interpretation of these verses have evolved. Today, in most societies, there is a recognition that the persecution of individuals based on accusations of witchcraft is unjust and inhumane.

The parliamentary forces emerged victorious, fueled in part by the influence of more radical Puritan representatives. The turmoil and unrest during this period created an atmosphere conducive to intense witch hunts, notably exemplified by figures like Matthew Hopkins. Goodare, Julian. ''The European Witch-Hunt.''

It was one of the many witchcraft trials that occurred during that period. Janet Barker and Margaret Lauder were accused of practicing witchcraft and engaging in activities associated with the devil. The trial involved allegations of supernatural powers, involvement in satanic rituals, and causing harm to others through witchcraft. Like many witch trials of the time, confessions were often obtained through torture. The trial reflected the prevailing belief in witchcraft and the fear surrounding it. It was part of a broader pattern of witch-hunting and persecution that occurred across Europe during that era. While specific details of this particular trial may be limited, it is an example of the widespread fear and persecution of individuals accused of witchcraft during the 17th century. These trials had severe consequences for those accused, often resulting in imprisonment, torture, and execution. Levack, Brian P., ''The Witchcraft Sourcebook.'' Second Edition. Kindle Edition.

'''The Great Scottish Witch Hunt of 1649-50, Lothian and Fife, Scotland (1649-1650).''' a significant series of trials, with the highest number of executions in a single year. It occurred during a period of economic, political, and religious unrest in Scotland. The radical Kirk party, seeking a "godly society," passed a new Witchcraft Act and encouraged local authorities to root out witches. The hunt primarily targeted the Lowlands, particularly Lothian and Fife, but also spilled over into northern England. Over 300 witches, mostly women of low social status, were executed, with ad hoc courts having higher execution rates. Trials were initiated by local ministers and their sessions, often leading to the naming of additional suspects. The Parliament and Committee of Estates later supervised the trials more closely. The use of pricking a Devil's mark, sometimes leading to torture, was notable in Scottish witchcraft trials.

''' A series of witch trials that took place in Penston, a village in East Lothian, Scotland. During this period, accusations of witchcraft were widespread, and many individuals, predominantly women, were targeted and accused of practicing witchcraft. The exact details and outcomes of the Penston Witch Trials are not widely recorded or well-documented. However, it can be assumed that the trials followed a similar pattern to other witch trials of the time. Accusations of supernatural powers, association with the devil, and causing harm to others through witchcraft were commonly made against the accused. Like other witch trials during that era, the Penston Witch Trials likely involved investigations, interrogations, and potentially the use of torture to extract confessions. Those accused of witchcraft faced severe consequences, including imprisonment, torture, and execution. While specific information on the Penston Witch Trials may be limited, it is an example of the prevailing fear and persecution of individuals accused of witchcraft in Scotland during the 17th century. The trials were influenced by the broader belief in witchcraft and the efforts to combat what was perceived as a threat to society.

This led to a substantial increase in agricultural production, which played a crucial role in Western Civilization's ability to address and mitigate famine and hunger. As food shortages became less prevalent, fewer people attributed adverse weather conditions, crop failures, or animal illnesses to witchcraft or blamed witches for such misfortunes. '''The Persecution of the Alloa Witches, Stirling, Scotland (1658).''' The trial of the Alloa witches began in Stirling on May 19, 1658. The presbyter Matthias Symson and minister George Bennett met with the apprehended individuals to seek confessions. Margaret Duchill was the first to go on trial among the 12 women accused of witchcraft from the urban parish, potentially including the adjacent rural area. One important aspect of the Scottish witchcraft trials was the reports of demonic sex. Women were asked about sex with the devil regularly, this appeared more of an interest of the authorities in deviant sex rather than in the witches' real lives Fergusson, R. Menzies.

'''The Great Scottish Witch Hunt of 1661-62, Scotland (1661-1662).''' stands as a significant chapter in Scottish history. Spanning sixteen months from April 1661, it was a nationwide series of witch trials that shook the entire country. Over 660 individuals faced trials for witchcraft and diabolism during this period, with the exact number of executions, though unknown, believed to be substantial. The witch hunt initially took root in Midlothian and East Lothian, and its intensity led to the appointment of commissions to investigate witchcraft across Scotland, leaving no region untouched by the fervor of the trials. Levack, Brian P., The Great Scottish Witch Hunt of 1661-1662, Journal of British Studies, Vol. 20, No. 1 (Autumn, 1980), pp. 90-108, Cambridge: Cambridge University Press on behalf of The North American Conference on British Studies (1980), https://repositories.lib.utexas.edu/bitstream/handle/2152/24280/Levack_BrianP_1980.pdf;jsessionid=77DC6218BDFEC30974662F432CD16BCE?sequence=1 (Stable URL: http://www.jstor.org/stable/175544).. '''The Enlightenment (1687-1789).''' was an intellectual revolution that championed concepts like empirical reason, skepticism, humanitarianism, and progress within Western Civilization. These principles, when applied to the notions of witches and their alleged threat to society, played a significant role in bringing an end to the witch hunts. During the Enlightenment, the lack of empirical evidence supporting the existence of witches undermined belief in their harmful powers. Additionally, the Enlightenment thinkers recognized that the use of torture to gather evidence or inflict punishment was inhumane and incompatible with rational principles. Finally, the Enlightenment emphasized the importance of progress and the elimination of superstitious beliefs like the belief in witches. Collectively, these Enlightenment ideas contributed to the decline of witch hunts as society began to reject the unfounded fears and superstitions surrounding witchcraft. The intellectual and cultural shift towards reason, skepticism, humanitarianism, and progress helped pave the way for a more enlightened perspective on witchcraft and a movement away from the persecution of alleged witches. Goodare, Julian. ''The European Witch-Hunt.'' Kindle edition. London and New York: Routledge, (2016). pps. 329, 346, 350, 364-365 . '''James Hutchison: Children, The Covenant, and Witchcraft, Paisley, Scotland (1697).''' Minister James Hutchison of Kilallan delivered a sermon at Paisley before the judges appointed by the Privy Council to preside over the trials of those accused of witchcraft. In this significant sermon, Hutchison put forth the belief that even children could be ensnared by the Devil, and he justified their prosecution and execution for the alleged crime of witchcraft. His sermon shed light on the prevailing attitudes of the time, where even the innocence of the young was not spared from suspicion and persecution during the fervor of the witch trials. Levack, Brian P., ''The Witchcraft Sourcebook.'' Second Edition. Kindle Edition. London and New York: Routledge (2015), pp. 128-132. '''Paisley Witches, Paisley, Scotland (1697).''' The infamous Paisley witches, also known as the Bargarran witches or the Renfrewshire witches, faced trial in Paisley, Scotland. Triggered by eleven-year-old Christian Shaw's torment, the accusations led to the conviction of seven individuals, including Catherine Campbell, a servant of Shaw's family. The accused were found guilty of bewitching Shaw and faced grave consequences. One committed suicide, while the remaining six were hanged and burned on June 10, 1697, marking the final mass execution for witchcraft in western Europe. “One account of the executions states that some of the condemned were still alive when their bodies were burned, and that the executioners borrowed a walking stick from an onlooker with which to push their victims' moving limbs back into the fire; its owner, Mark Canavan, refused to take it back after it had been in contact with witches.” Agnes Naismith cast a curse on the trial's attendees, which was believed to bring misfortune to Paisley for years.

A group of five Scottish women accused of witchcraft in the village of Pittenweem in 1704. They were imprisoned, tortured, and beaten, leading to the death of one of them, Janet Cornfoot, who was killed by a lynch mob. The murder was investigated, but no suspects were prosecuted. Two of the accused women were imprisoned again in 1708–1709 but were eventually released and pardoned. Another accused woman, Janet Horseburgh, sued the bailies responsible for her imprisonment and received an apology and monetary compensation. The events surrounding the Pittenweem witches were considered one of the last significant instances of witch persecution in Fife. Ibrahim, Alia.

The Scottish Witchcraft Act of 1735 was indeed repealed in 1736. The Act had been introduced in an attempt to curb the persecution and execution of individuals accused of witchcraft in Scotland. Prior to its repeal, Scotland had a long history of witch trials and harsh punishments for those accused. The Act of 1735 marked a significant shift in attitudes towards witchcraft and the recognition that the persecution of alleged witches was unjust. The repeal of the Act was a progressive step that acknowledged the need for reform in the legal treatment of witchcraft accusations. By repealing the Witchcraft Act, Scotland moved away from the belief in supernatural witchcraft and shifted towards a more rational and skeptical approach. This repeal contributed to the decline of witch trials and the eventual end of legal persecution based on accusations of witchcraft in Scotland. It is important to note that the repeal of the Witchcraft Act did not erase the historical impact of the witch trials or the suffering endured by those falsely accused. However, it represented a significant milestone in Scotland's legal history and the changing attitudes towards witchcraft.

[[Category: Scotland Project Managed FSPs]] [[Category:Ragman Rolls 1291-1296]] ==Ragman Rolls, Scotland 1291 - 1296== The Homage Rolls of Edward I are an essential starting point for early Scottish family genealogy. They represent, to us the modern genealogist, a record of ''most'' of the nobility of Scotland between the period 1291 and 1296. '''What they are''': They are a set of rolls (formerly preserved in the Tower of London, now in the Public Record Office), in which are recorded the instruments of homage made to Edward I by the Scottish king and nobles in both 1291 and 1296; although much controversy and myth surrounds the use of the term ''Ragman'' it was simply a name used to describe a legal document recording homage, pleas and offences and its use is recorded prior to that of 1291/1296 and after - catalogue would be a modern interpretation. This is fully described in the source document. It is important to notice that Edward attempted to ensure he captured the allegiance of every individual that owned, or was heir to, the land and titles of Scotland. If you have a family member that is not on the Roll but was alive, and of age, in Scotland at the time but not on a Roll then it is likely they held no land or titles. He, and his scribes, were very thorough. He did not collect them himself. Generally he appointed a regional head, one of the nobles, that would then swear allegiance to him, often with the clergy, and he, and his scribes, would take the homage pleas of individuals. This is why Rolls are of varying length. Edward also toured Scotland, starting at Coldstream on the 27 March 1296, and arriving at Roxburgh Castle, on 23 May 1296. He then made a quick detour to Douglas lands in Liddesdale visiting Jedburgh and Castleton before returning to Roxburgh. He then went north to Edinburgh, Linlithgow and Stirling, crossing the Forth on 20 June on his way to Perth. He is said to have rested at Auchterarder (Outrear in the mss). He was in Perth on 21 June. He crossed the Tay at Kincleven castle heading to Cluny Castle where he stayed until 2 July. He was at the Royal castle of Inverqueich, then to Forfar castle, then Fernwell, then Montrose where he stayed between 7 and 11July. After he went to Kincardine castle, then Glenbervie, then Durnes (believed to be Durris), then on to Aberdeen. Kintore, Fyvie Castle, Banff, Cullen, followed until he reached the district of the Enyie, on the eastern bank of the Spey. He crossed the Spey into Moray, on Wednesday the 25th of July, he is stated to have rested at the manor of Rapenache, (Rapenache manoir en le pays de Moreve,) but this manor seems long since disappeared from the record. On the 26th of July he reached Elgin, the northern most part of his journey. He stayed in Elgin till the 29th July then headed south. He stopped at Rothes on the western bank of the Spey (Roseise manoir), and on Monday at Invercharrach (Ynterkerache), a small hamlet in the mountains between Strath-Fiddich and Strath-Doveran, situated on a stream of the same name which falls into the river Doveran, three miles to the north of the parish kirk of Cabrach. On the following day he reached the castle of Kildrummy (Kyndrokyn chastel; the seat of the Earldom of Mar) where he rested on Wednesday, 1 August; and on Thursday, is stated in the Itinerary to have arrived at the Hospital of Kincardine in the Mearns (lospital de Kyncardyn en Mernes), this likely the Hospital at Kincardine 0'NeiI in Aberdeenshire, about eighteen miles from Kildrummy. From there, on the next day, Friday the 3rd, it seems probable that he reached the other Kincardine in the Mearns (the Royal castle), and proceeded, on Saturday the 4th, to Brechin, (la cite de Breghyn) then to Aberbrothock, (labaye de Berbrodoch,) to Dundee, to Baligerny, the castle of Sir Robert Cambron (Sheriff of Atholl), situated in the Carse of Gowry, (Baligarnach le roge Chastel,) and to Perth. He then returned to Berwick through the county of Fife, along the northern banks of the Forth, and then from Stirling. He was in Berwick towards the end of August where the majority of nobles will make their pledge, on 28 August. Study of the source material will show this itinerary and where various nobles signed and sealed their pledge. Those swearing fealty included the earls and tenants-in-chief, and their heirs, and other major land-holders. The heads of religious houses, a large proportion of the clergy and the burgesses of the major towns were also included as were some English magnates and ecclesiastics who held property in Scotland. Edward was particularly enthusiastic to ensure those of Flemish origin made their allegiance as these were the supporters of the two major factions vying for the Scottish throne and had control of most of the wealth of Scotland. Nearly every major house noted in the Homage Rolls have their roots in the noble houses of Flanders or were supporters of one of them. ------- '''Sources''' In the main the Rolls are intact and still preserved although many of the seals have been destroyed. * [https://archive.org/details/instrumentapublica00thomuoft Instrumenta Publica Sive Processus Super Fidelitatibus Et Homagiis Scotorum Domino Regi Angliae Factis, A.D. 1291-1296], is the key source document although it is, in the main, in Latin. Thomson, who collected the material for the Bannantyne Club, provides notes in English. * [https://archive.org/details/calendarofdocume02grea Calendar of documents relating to Scotland preserved in Her Majesty's Public Record Office, London], is another original source. Bain's work, in English, providing an illustration of how the homages were collected as Edward toured Scotland and illustrates exactly where the nobles swore allegiance and with whom he was with at the time. Comparison of these two sources allows an understanding of the names used by individuals, or at least those recorded by the clerks. * In there is an interest in the Seals used by the individuals Bruce McAndrew produced an excellent piece of work entitled "The sigillography of the Ragman Roll". This piece is copyright although can easily be downloaded. * There are many web resources available; [http://www.rampantscotland.com/ragman/blragman_index.htm Rampant Scotland] being a reasonable one for quick reference.

The modern settlement of Ralston takes its name from the ancient feudal estates of Ralphistoun (Ralph's settlement), named after the younger son of the Earl of Fife, to whom the lands were gifted in the early 12th century. {{Image|file=Clan_Ralston.png |caption=Wood House Castle }} In 1551 [[Ralston-2031|Hugh Ralston]] acquired land in Beith. He built Wood House Castle. It was in the Ralston family for 200 years. The last clan chief, Galvin sold it in 1771 to pay off debt. ==History== The first mention of this family is Jacobus de Rauliston, dominis ejusden, who appears as witness to "de creatine abbotis" of Paisley in 1219. There is a knowledge gap in the family line from 1346 to 1426. It is possible the family died out and another family took over the name or name was adopted from an heiress of Ralston.

Internet Archive.>[https://archive.org/details/historycounties02pategoog/page/n143/mode/2up Ralston of Woodside, Vol III, pps 129-138.] In 1426 Robert Stewart of Ralston passed his lands in Ayrshire to John de Ralston who may have been a grandson. He was succeeded as Lord of Ralston by his nephew John Ralston of that Ilk. He passed the lands of Ralston near Paisley to his eldest son and heir Thomas Ralston of Rossholm. He exchanged some Ralston land for land in Ayrshire. Thomas was killed at Flodden and was succeeded by his son, Thomas. Thomas had no children and was succeeded by his brother Hew, who died at the Battle of Pinkie Cleugh. His son [[Ralston-2031|Hew]] acquired land in Beith. He outlived his eldest son [[Ralston-2029|Gavin]] so the his grandson [[Ralston-2026|William]] became chief. His son [[Ralston-2024|William]] is the first to be recorded as having armorial bearings, being registered in 1672 with the Court of the Lord Lyon. They are described as: “Argent, on a bend, azure: three acorns in the seed. Crest, a falcon proper. Supporters, dexter, a man in armour, sinister, a horse rampant. Motto, Fide et Marte. William given lands in Kintrye for his loyalty and in 1666 settled near Saddell. He is buried at Kilcolmkill Chapel Churchyard in Southend, Argyll. William outlived his son and was succeeded by his grandson [[Rallston-2|Gavin]]. Due to excessive debt he sold most of the family lands. His son [[Ralston-2042|William]] had an unsavory reputation and was killed in a drunken altercation with his wife in 1744. His son [[Ralston-2047|Gavin]] became chief at the age of nine. He died in 1819 without any living heirs. ==Sources== *'''Paterson, James, 1805-1876 : History Of The County Of Ayr :''' With A Genealogical Account Of The Families Of Ayrshire : Free Download, Borrow, And Streaming : Internet Archive". 2021.

Robert and his father supported King of England [[Plantagenet-2|Edward I]], who defeated Scottish King [[Balliol-8|John de Balliol]] in 1296, however they were unhappy that Edward I took the Scottish throne for himself. Although Robert supported [[Wallace-182|William Wallace]], aka "Braveheart", and the cause for Scottish independence, Robert was absent at the Scots victory at Stirling Bridge, and he was not present at the Battle of Falkirk, where Wallace was defeated."Robert the Bruce, King of Scots 1306 – 1329" in ''Scotland's History'' online at [http://www.bbc.co.uk/scotland/history/articles/robert_the_bruce/ BBC.co.uk], accessed 4 March 2020. * 19 August 1299 - Robert was chosen as one of the guardians of the Kingdom of Scotland at a Council of Magnates assembled at Peebles,Sir James Balfour Paul.

At this same council, Robert was assaulted by Comyn, who would be his rival for the Scottish crown. * 1304 - Robert's father died, putting Robert in line to claim the Scottish throne. At this same time, Robert may have become Lord Bruce. Robert succeeded his father as Lord of Annandale, inheriting lands in Scotland and Durham as well as the Huntingdon estates. Robert did homage and had livery of his father's lands in England on 14 June 1304.Cokayne, George Edward and Vicary Gibbs ed. ''Complete Peerage of England, Scotland, Ireland, Great Britain and the United Kingdom'', Vol. II: Bass - Canning, 2nd edition (London, 1912). Online at Archive.org, [https://archive.org/stream/completepeerageo02coka#page/360/mode/1up page 360].Note that any English barony created in 1295 (for his father) would have either been forfeited in 1306, when Robert took the Scottish crown, or after the death of his son David in 1371, as David died without issue, and the barony would have fallen into abeyance between Robert's daughters and sisters (per ''Complete Peerage'', vol. III). * February 1305/6 - Robert stabbed Sir John Comyn at the church of the convent of the Minorite Friars in Dumfries, John was "immediately afterwards dispatched by Brus's companions". The stabbing was done "possibly in self-defence, probably without premeditation" but this did not prevent Scotland from falling into civil war or the renewed campaigns in the war with England. Robert was attainted, his English estates being confiscated by Edward I. He was also excommunicated, as authorized by Pope Clement V and pronounced by the Archbishop of Canterbury 5 June 1306. * 27 March 1306 - Robert I was crowned King of Scotland having received absolution from Bishop Wishart for his part in the killing of John Comyn (Richardson states that he was absolved in 1310). He was crowned by the Countess of Buchan at Scone Abbey and was aged 31 years, 8 months and 17 days. * June - September 1306 - Robert's forces were defeated by the Earl of Pembroke at the Battle of Methven on 19 June 1306 and on 11 August 1306, they were defeated at the Battle of Dalry by Alexander of Argyll. On/before 13 September 1306, the Scots, under Robert's brother Neil, were again defeated at Kildrummie Castle in Aberdeen, the English taking the castle. * November 1306 - Robert's wife, Elizabeth, his daughter Marjory, and two of his sisters had gone into hiding at the sanctuary of St. Duthac in Tain, but they were turned over to the English by the Earl of Ross and imprisoned on 7 November 1306. Isabella, Countess of Buchan, who had crowned Robert as king, was also imprisoned that same day. It is thought that Isabella and perhaps Robert's sisters were imprisoned in cages. * 1306-1307 - Robert's brothers were executed by the English, Neil/Nigel at Berwick in September 1306 and Thomas and Alexander at Carlisle on 17 February 1306/7. *10 May 1307 - The Scots defeated the English at the Battle of Loudon Hill in Ayrshire. * 7 July 1307 - King Edward I died at Burgh in the Sands, near Carlisle. Edward was succeeded by his son, [[Plantagenet-378|Edward II]]. * 1307 - 1308 - Robert defeated the English at the Rout at Slaines 25 December 1307; at the Battle of Inverurie on 22 May 1308 and at Argyll on 22 August 1308. *24 February 1309/10 - the clergy of Scotland met in a council and swore fealty to Robert I. * 24 June 1314 - At the [[:Category: Battle of Bannockburn|Battle of Bannockburn]], Robert totally defeats the English under King Edward II. * January 1315 - Robert's wife, Elizabeth was released in exchange for prisoners taken at the Battle of Bannockburn. * 1315 -1316 - Robert's brother [[Brus-97|Edward]] invaded Ireland on 25 May 1315 and was crowned king on 2 May 1316.Ashley, Mike.

Print, pages 158-161, 460-461. * March 1317 - Robert, "Earl of Carrick", and his brother Edward were excommunicated by Pope John. * 1318 - The Scots took Berwick on 28 March 1318 and invaded England in May 1318. *14 October 1318 - Robert's brother, Edward, King of Ireland, was slain at the Tagher, near Dundalk in Ireland. *3 December 1318 - [[Stewart-1001|Robert]] (later King Robert II), son of Robert's sister, Marjory, was declared heir to the crown by Parliament at Scone. *6 April 1320 - The Scottish barons acknowledged Robert I as their king in a letter to Pope John XXII known as the ''Declaration of Arbroath''. In this set of documents, the Scots declared their independence. However, at that time, the Pope did not recognize Scotland's independence. That year, a truce with Edward II of England was called and lasted for 13 years. *1326 - In the [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Treaty_of_Corbeil_(1326) Treaty of Corbeil], the Franco-Scottish alliance was renewed. Also that year, Robert's son, [[Bruce-510|David]], who was born 5 March 1323/4, was recognized by the clergy, nobility and the people of Scotland as the heir to the throne. *1327 - Edward II is deposed and killed and [[Plantagenet-70|Edward III]] takes the English throne. Robert invaded northern England, threatening to annex it to Scotland. * 17 March 1328 - In the ''Treaty of Edinburgh'', the English government established Robert's title as king, recognizing the independence of Scotland by the English. This treaty was later repudiated by King Edward III in 1332, but Scotland's independence remained recognized by the papacy, the French and other European rulers. * October 1328 - the Pope recognized Scotland's independence and Robert's excommunication was reversed.Wikipedia: [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Declaration_of_Arbroath Declaration of Arbroath]. ===Acknowledgement=== Thanks go to [[Thiessen-117|Traci Thiessen]] for compiling this timeline.

[[Category: Scotland Project Managed FSPs]] ==Rosehearty (Scottish Gaelic: Ros Abhartaich; Scots: Rizartie)== Rosehearty is a settlement on the Moray Firth coast, four miles west of the town Fraserburgh, in the historical county of Aberdeenshire. The settlement that is now Rosehearty was thought to have been founded by a group of shipwrecked Danes in the 14th Century. In 1424, the Fraser family built Pitsligo Castle a few hundred yards inland; the castle was enlarged by the Forbes family in 1570. The remains of the Castle are visible from Rosehearty. Rosehearty didn't officially exist until it was granted a charter in the 1680s by King Charles II. [[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rosehearty]]

[[Category: Scotland Project Managed FSPs]] [[Category:Scottish Counties]] '''This county is part of the [[Project:Scotland|Scotland Project]].''' {{Image|file=Roxburghshire_Workings.png |align=r |size=m }} Roxburgh is a quiet, historic village with a population of less than 500, giving its name to a municipal district in the Scottish Borders council area of Scotland. It is located a couple of miles South West of Kelso, nestled between the rivers Tweed and Teviot, amid lush farmland surrounded by hills. It is (or was) a Royal burgh, and is still a Dukedom, with the 10th Duke sat at nearby [[Space:Floors Castle|Floors Castle]] (1718). To understand the importance of Roxburghshire, one must look at the geography and over three thousand years of bloody Scottish history. It sits between two Roman walls, the Antonine to the North, and Hadrian's to the South. Since then it has changed hands many times, and been accounted part of several kingdoms, most lately Scotland, England and finally the United Kingdom. Under the Eildon Hills lies the site of [[Space:Trimontium|Trimontium]], an outpost of the Roman Empire from around the 1st century AD. It is suggested this fort was built and rebuilt several times in this troublesome period of Roman history. Around 634, [[Saint Cuthbert, Scotland|Saint Cuthbert]] was born in an area said to be close to a newly built monastery near [[:Category:Melrose, Roxburghshire|Melrose]], in what was the Kingdom of Northumbria. Cuthbert was appointed Prior at Melrose, and then at Lindisfarne, was promoted to Bishop, before retiring to become a hermit. Now the Patron Saint of Northern England, Cuthbert spent large portions of his life establishing the new religion of Christianity to the largely Pagan native population. He would return to Melrose many times, both in life and in death. [[Space:St Cuthberts Way|St Cuthbert's Way]] is a scenic walking route stretching from Melrose to [[Space:Holy Island, Northumberland|Holy Island]], based on the life and travels of the Saint. The monastery was raided, and possibly destroyed around the 9th Century by [[MacAlpin-11|Kenneth I of Scotland]], in a time of great conflict with the Danes. The Sherrifdom or Shire of Roxburgh dates from the 12th century, when [[Dunkeld-68|King David I of Scotland]] settled there and sought to improve the fortunes of the area, granting a charter for one of the first royal burghs in Scotland. Indeed it appears that he ignored the existing village in the Parish of Roxburgh, and built up New Roxburgh closer to the castle, perched as it was atop an outcrop defended by the converging Tweed and Teviot waters, within sight of Kelso. Such was his success, Roxburgh was considered as important politically, economically, and religiously as Edinburgh. During this time David gifted lands to Cistercian monks, who built [[Space:Melrose Abbey|Melrose Abbey]], Augustinian monks, who built [[Space:Jedburgh Abbey|Jedburgh Abbey]], Tironensian monks, who built [[Space:Kelso Abbey|Kelso Abbey]], and assisted the Premonstratensian monks in founding [[Space:Dryburgh Abbey|Dryburgh Abbey]]. By 1174 Roxburgh Castle was ceded to the English along with the sovereignty of Scotland in payment for a disastrous invasion by William the Lion. Fortunately for Scotland, she was sold back to William by a desperate Richard, Ceur de Lion, much in need of coin for his adventures in the Holy Land. 1313 saw Roxburgh Castle having to be retaken from English hands in '''The Siege of Roxburgh''' during the first War of Scottish Independence. Edward II destroyed much of Melrose Abbey in 1322, and it was put to flame again in 1385 by Richard II. After his death in 1329, the heart of [[Bruce-129 |Robert the Bruce]] was laid to rest in Melrose Abbey. One of the last requests of a dying king. Between 1380 and 1400, various forms of truce, some for as little as 1 year, were agreed between the two nations, by sending documents to the abbeys at Melrose and Kelso. Roxburgh Castle was later destroyed in 1460, during the Anglo-Scottish wars by the Scots, to deny it to the English, although the death of [[Stewart-1166|James II]] when one of his own cannon exploded may have influenced this decision. His infant son was hastened to Kelso Abbey to be crowned the next King of Scotland, [[Stewart-2316 |James III]]. The 1520's saw [[Tudor-4 |Henry VIII]] determined to meddle in Scottish affairs, sending troops to lay waste to Southern Scotland. During such time Kelso Abbey was heavily damaged. 1543 began "The Rough Wooing", a forceable attempt by Henry VIII to arrange the marriage of [[Stewart-6849 |Mary, Queen of Scots]] and his son Edward. Melrose Abbey was once again a casualty of war, a wound from which it never fully recovered. The abbeys at Dryburgh, Jedburgh and Kelso were similarly affected in the conflict. 1566 saw [[Stewart-6849 |Mary Stuart]] holding court in a house near [[Space:Jedburgh Abbey|Jedburgh Abbey]]. A vengeful [[Tudor-1 |Queen Elizabeth]] put most of the county to the torch in 1570, to try once and for all to put an end to the Border Reivers. The Reformation, late in the 16th century saw vast tracts of land taken from the religious orders by the crown, and then parceled out as favour. Francis, Earl of Bothwell, Admiral of Scotland was given much of the area around Kelso. One cannot escape unscathed from high treason, however, and the lands were once again confiscated by the crown. Sir Robert Kerr of Cessford was the beneficiary, and an Act of Parliament conferred the estates unto him in 1607. The legal precedent this created sat uncomfortably with some, however, and in 1747, with due financial compensation to Robert's descendant the Duke of Roxburge, the legal standing of Kelso was changed once more. 1639 saw Kelso once again become a stageing area, this time as the Covenanters prepared to defend their religious freedoms from a now unified British crown worn by Charles I. The rebellion of 1715 also used Kelso as a mustering point for the various forces, and again in 1745. Although born in Edinburgh (1771), [[Scott-3476|Sir Walter Scott]] was sent to Sandyknowe Farm in Roxburghshire to live with his grandparents after contracting polio in infancy, and repeatedly returns to the area during his formative and school years. In 1811 he starts the project that would be known as [[Space:Abbotsford House|Abbotsford House]], near [[:Category:Melrose, Roxburghshire|Melrose]]. He would spend most of the rest of his life there, and finally dies there in September 1832. His body was interred beside his wife in nearby [[Space:Dryburgh Abbey|Dryburgh Abbey]]. The County of Roxburgh was the first Scottish county to receive a grant of arms. This was made by Lord Lyon King of Arms on 9 July 1798. The coat of arms seems to have been granted for the use of the volunteer and militia units then being organised under the authority of the county's lord lieutenant. When the county council was formed in 1890, the arms passed to them. The shield depicted a unicorn, a national symbol of Scotland. At the top of the shield was a hunting horn between two helmets: probably a reference to the border reivers, one of whom featured in the arms of the royal burgh of [[:Category:Jedburgh, Roxburghshire|Jedburgh]]. The crest above the shield was an armoured arm brandishing a scimitar. The Latin motto was "''Ne Cede Malis Sed Contra Audentior Ito''" or ''Yield not to misfortunes (evil things) but go on more boldly against them'', a quotation from Virgil's Aeneid 6, 95. On 6 May 1975 the coat of arms was regranted to Roxburgh District Council, without the crest. When the district council was abolished in 1996, the arms reverted to The Crown. === Eminent Borderers === 1707 - Sir John Pringle, physician to royalty, and respected author. ---- == Research/Resource Links == [http://www.genuki.org.uk/big/sct/ROX/ GenUKI Roxburghshire resources] [https://archive.org/stream/atopographicala00haiggoog#page/n19/mode/2up A Topographical and Historical Account of the Town of Kelso, and of the Town and Castle of Roxburgh] - archive.org

[[Category: Scotland Project Managed FSPs]] This section has been temporarily removed from [[Douglas-108|William Douglas]] until a project member can review its accuracy when the profile is updated. [[Stevens-17832|Stevens-17832]] 15:32, 25 February 2024 (UTC) ===DNA=== The Douglas DNA Project states that they have "proven the Earls of Morton line back to the 1400s, with distant cousins matching. All descendants of William de Duglis, 1174, must be R-P312 haplogroup." https://www.familytreedna.com/groups/douglas/about/results They also state that: "The group was widened in May 2013 to include the old Type 2a subgroup. This group now can be defined by a distinctive Y-DNA signature under the haplogroup R-P312: 385b=15,16; 439=11, 447=24, 23; 456=15; 576=19,18; 395S1b=16; 534=17,16; 572=10. It encompasses a similar subgroup from the Sutherland DNA Project, there described as 0:3 Moray Firth Group -Haplo=R-P312. This expanded group probably descends from William de Duglis's reputed father, [[Moravia-6|Freskyn de Moravia]]." https://www.familytreedna.com/groups/douglas/about/results It is helpful to remember that the Sutherlands and the Morays also claim descent from Freskyn de Moravia. This DNA evidence, then, allows the conclusion to be reached that Freskyn de Moravia is William de Douglas' father. Also to be taken into account are similarities in the Arms of the families, close location to each other geographically, and similar names in each family (Freskyn or variant names show up in the families). Historical evidence is examined in greater detail in the book: ''A history of the house of Douglas from the earliest times down to the legislative union of England and Scotland'', by Sir Herbert Maxwell, and it can be read for free online [https://archive.org/details/historyofhouseof01maxw/page/n47 HERE] (the evidence connecting William with Freskyn starts on page 9).

[[Category: Scotland Project Managed FSPs]] [[Category: Baronetage of Nova Scotia]] ==Baronets of Nova Scotia== As background to the creation it needs to be recalled that in Britain's American colonies at the time, c. 1620, there was a New England, a New France, and a New Spain. One of the Scottish nobility, Sir [[Alexander-642|William Alexander of Menstrie]], proposed to King James (VI of Scotland and I of England), that the development and settling of New Scotland (Nova Scotia) might be encouraged if James were to offer a title. James had, in the past, Baronets of England, 1611, Baronets of Ireland, 1619, used this method to raise funds for his Government. Thus, on 10 September 1621, James signed a grant in favour of Sir William Alexander that covered all of the lands "between our Colonies of New England and Newfoundland, to be known as New Scotland". This was an area larger than Great Britain and France combined. To assist Alexander settle the colony, James signed, on 18 October 1624, the order to create a new order of baronets, limited to 100 Scottish "knichts and gentlemen of cheife respect for the birth, place, or fortounes". James VI died on 27 March 1625 but his son and heir, Charles I, implemented the plan immediately. Under the implementation of the Baronetage an area of Edinburgh Castle was declared Nova Scotian territory for the purpose of distrubuting title and each applicant was required to pay Sir William Alexander 1000 merks and a pledge to support six colonists, fully equipped, for two years. In return they received the title and c. 11,000 acres, which, interestingly, was thought exorbitant. It was not a requirement that nobles actually go there. The initial settlement did not go well with many killed through harsh weather and disease and then suffered a huge drawback when Charles, after losing a series of conflicts to the French, in reparation, ceded the lands to France and ordered the removal of the colony and destruction of Charles Fort at Port Royal. This was a fatal blow to the fledgling programme. Sir William Alexander, Earl of Stirling and Viscount of Canada, and often referred to as the "Founder of Nova Scotia", died bankrupt in London in 1644. His embalmed body is interred in the family vault in the High Kirk of Stirling. Lord Menstrie maintained, in his castle at Stirling the armorial roll of every noble that joined. This roll is still on display at [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Menstrie_Castle Menstrie] and managed by the [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/National_Trust_for_Scotland National Trust of Scotland] The Order of Baronets, however, continued and grants of land were made until the end of 1639, by which time 122 baronetcies had been created, 113 of whom were granted lands in Nova Scotia. There were no grants of land after 1639. Charles, in order to entice nobles to join, allowed members the right to wear the badge of Nova Scotia around the neck suspended by an orange tawny ribbon. This right continues to this day. The badge of office consists of a silver shield with an azure saltire imposed upon it, together with an inescutcheon of the Arms of Scotland. There is an Imperial Crown above the inescutcheon and the motto Fax mentis Honestae Gloria encircles the whole badge. For wearing of the badge see [http://www.baronetage.org/a-short-history/the-baronets-badge/ The Standing Council of the Baronetage] The Order continued until 1707, by which time 329 baronetcies were made.

If you would like to help with categorisation for Scotland Project, please contact the [[:Space:Scotland Categories Team| Categories Team Leader]] ===Geographic Naming Conventions=== The [[:Project:Scotland |Scotland Project]] uses the County map for Scotland that was introduced in 1890 and was replaced in 1975. This map is considered the most relevant by today's genealogists and is most likely to be referenced in genealogical research. Other names will be managed by exception or linked to names in those categories. See [[:Category: Scottish Counties| the Scottish Counties page]] for boundary details. The Project uses [https://www.ScotlandsPlaces.gov.uk ScotlandsPlaces] to establish place name standards. For standardisation purposes, when categorising, please use the following conventions: :'''Counties''' are located under [[:Category:Scottish Counties|Scottish Counties]]. A deliberate decision was made to fix the counties used to the 1890 county map. This does not, entirely, represent the current counties of Scotland. Counties should take the form , Scotland. If unsure then please ask in the {{G2G}} using the tags {{tag|categorization}} and {{tag|Scotland}}. :'''Towns/Localities''' take the form , and are located under the county of relevance in the 1890 County boundaries. :'''Parishes of Scotland''' On WikiTree please use the form , . Parishes changed over time and, to align to counties, WikiTree needs to use the Parishes established under the Local Government Act of 1889 and hence Scotland consists of 871 Parishes. The [[:Project: Scotland|Scotland Project]] will manage the transition of names and boundaries over time and align them to the modern Parish boundaries. If the town is unknown please leave blank. The person can then be added to [[:Category:Scotland, Unknown Place]] or, if known, the County equivalent. Ensure you use a County from the [[:Category: Scottish Counties|County list]]. ===Parishes of Scotland=== The Scotland Project uses the Parishes established under the Local Government Act of 1889 and hence Scotland consists of 871 Parishes. These will be listed under the [[:Category:Scottish Counties| County]] they are part of. From 1845 to 1930, parishes formed part of the local government system of Scotland: having parochial boards from 1845 to 1894, and parish councils from 1894 until 1930. The Parish boundaries are different from those established under the jurisdiction of the church in Scotland but the differences should not be noticeable to most of the genealogists on wikitree. If you are looking to work this area please use the convention Category: X Parish, County. The Project uses [https://scotlandsplaces.gov.uk/ ScotlandsPlaces] to establish place name standards.

[[Category: Scotland Project Managed FSPs]] [[Category:Scotland Project]] '''[[:Project:Scotland|Scotland Project]]''' > '''[[:Space:Scotland - Scottish Clans Teams|Scottish Clans Teams]]''' > Clan Tartans This page contains Tartan images approved by the Project for use on Scottish Clan Stickers. If you would like a Tartan image added to this page, please contact the [[Space:Scotland - Scottish Clans Teams|Scotland Project Coordinator]] for approval. The Tartans used by the project, as shown below, were chosen using the following criteria: 1) They were created/worn prior to 1815; or 2) they are the oldest known to be used by their respective Clan; or 3) they are recorded with the Court of the Lord Lyon; or 4) they are used by the official Clan Society. It is important to note that Clan specific Tartans were not recorded until after 1815, and that most tartans were regional or military in nature. In fact, many were an evolution of the Highland Military Tartans for specific units. For example: When the Highland Society of London decided to establish the first register of tartan in 1816, they wrote round the chiefs asking them to send in samples of their clan tartan. Many of them looked at some ancestral portrait and seized upon the prettiest pattern that was shown. In a letter from 1816 written by James Hamilton, then Secretary of the Highland Society of London he wrote: - “I have not received any more tartans, and I rather suspect that some Chiefs do not know which are theirs. Sir Hugh Munro of Foulis says he does not know, and Lady Stafford sent me part of that worn by the 42d as the Sutherland, in which I have every reason to believe she is mistaken. I was thinking of applying to James Sutherland of Forse in Caithness, the heir male of the family….” == Historical Clan Tartans == ===A to C===

[[Category: Scotland Project Managed FSPs]] [[Category: Baronetage of Nova Scotia]] There have been two baronetcies created for persons with the surname Colquhoun ("Cohoon"), one in the [[:Category: Baronetage of Nova Scotia| Baronetage of Nova Scotia (1625)]] and one in the [[:Category:Baronetage of Great Britain|Baronetage of Great Britain (1786)]]. The second baronetcy in 1786 was created to rectify confusion over the first. However, a third branch of the family, the Colquhouns of Tillyquhoun, also continued to assert themselves as baronets until their extinction in 1838. Robert Colquhoun was thus titled the 12th baronet.

[[Category: Scotland Project Managed FSPs]] [[Category:Scotland|Scotland]] Navigation: '''[[Project:Scotland|Scotland Project]]''' > '''[[Space:Scotland - Profile Improvements Team| PIT Crew Team]]''' > Scotland Project Copyright and Image Guidelines ==Copyright and Image Guideline== *Because of the complexity of Copyright Law, the [[:Project:Scotland| Scotland Project]] has decided to set out clear '''Copyright Guidelines''' to follow, for genealogy research in '''Scotland''', for all those creative members involved on WikiTree. *This is not '''Legal Advice'''. If you are at all in doubt as to what is allowed and what is not, it is recommended you speak to the holder of the document or image, or a lawyer who specializes in international copyright law. *Please remember that '''WikiTree is a private American commercial company'''. So commercial use laws will apply. WikiTree operates in an international environment so various laws from other countries may apply, such as those mentioned on this page that are covered by Scottish law. *No Illegal or Infringing Content. As set out in WikiTree's Terms of Service, members of this Project will not post or transmit to the Website any material that You know or ought reasonably to have known (i) cannot be legally distributed (whether by law or regulation or in contempt of any court or other governmental authority or body); (ii) '''that infringes the copyrights, trademarks, trade secrets, or other proprietary rights ("Intellectual Property Rights") of any third party'''; or (iii) that contains any content that is illegal, threatening, harassing, defamatory, obscene, pornographic or indecent. ==Copyright Definitions.== ===UK Crown Copyright.=== *Simply stated, [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Crown_copyright "Crown Copyright"] in the "United Kingdom", allows for the "free re-use" of the '''content''' of the "Government created document" in question, in any format, under [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Open_Government_Licence "Open Government"] license. There are some exceptions, including those which are under Crown "letters patent" and "Acts of Parliament". The document form "containing the information" and any logos, etc. is under Crown Copyright, therefore, any reproduction of the government document is strictly controlled. The Scotland Project recommends a '''transcript of the content''' of any item, pertaining to "Genealogy Research", involved in UK Crown Copyright. Please also include an "Acknowledgement". Again, please be advised, this only applies to "UK Crown Copyright". ===Copyright.=== *Basically, [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Copyright "Copyright"] is an "intellectual property right" which protects the rights of the "creator" of the original intellectual property. This includes charts, images, websites and blogs. Original works "now" automatically qualify for protection upon creation. ===Public Domain.=== *[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Public_domain "Public Domain"] covers any intellectual works which are out of Copyright, or never under any Copyright Law. Check that the item involved is definitely out of "Copyright" and include an "Acknowledgement". ===Fair Use.=== *[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fair_use "Fair Use"] originated in the United States and is known as [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fair_dealing_in_United_Kingdom_law "Fair Dealing"] in the UK and other parts of the World. This provides for the use of Images/Documents, "which are still under Copyright Law", in a non-commercial study or research, criticism, review or reporting of current events. Permission from the Copyright Owner and an "Acknowledgement' is definitely called for. ===Acknowledgements.=== *The "Scotland Project" follows WikiTree guidelines as far as [https://www.wikitree.com/wiki/Special:Honor_Code Acknowledgements] are concerned. We, therefore, recommend an attribute or acknowledgement for every "Image/Document". This, at the very least, needs to be an attribute for the Image/Document, added underneath an [https://www.wikitree.com/wiki/Help:Acknowledgements "Acknowledgements"] header at the bottom of the WT profile involved. Wikimedia Commons Images also have a citation section for every image, which can also be copy/pasted into the Image text box during upload. Wikipedia also has a citation section for every page. The "suggested" citation for Genealogy is usually the [https://www.wikitree.com/wiki/Help:Sources_Style_Guide "Chicago style"]. ==Copyright Usage Guidelines.== ===Scotland's People.=== *The "Scotland Project" strongly recommends that "No Images" from [https://www.scotlandspeople.gov.uk ScotlandsPeople] be used on WikiTree. This means no uploads...only "Transcripts of the Content" of the document in question, be it census, church record, statutory register or others..i.e. as quoted at "Scotland's People", "Visitors to this website are granted permission to access this material, to download and copy such material onto electronic, magnetic, optical or similar storage media and to make printed copies of any such downloaded material, provided that such activities and copies are for non-commercial private study and research only."...therefore " content Transcripts only" are recommended. See: [https://www.scotlandspeople.gov.uk/content/copyright Scotland's People Copyright]. ===National Archives of Scotland.=== *"webarchive.nrscotland.gov.uk" is now the National Records of Scotland website. It was merged with the General Register Office in 2011. It all falls under [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Crown_copyright Crown Copyright] rules. ===Undiscovered Scotland.=== *"undiscoveredscotland.co.uk" falls under [https://www.undiscoveredscotland.co.uk/usabout/legal.html Copyright Law]. ===National Records of Scotland.=== *"nrscotland.gov.uk" is covered by [https://www.nrscotland.gov.uk/copyright-and-disclaimer Crown Copyright] unless otherwise indicated. You are "free to use and re-use the content of the document" under Open Government License. Enquiries to the communications department are advised. ===Registers of Scotland.=== *"ros.gov.uk" falls under [https://www.ros.gov.uk/crown-copyright-and-copyright-licences Crown Copyright] Law as well. "Content only Transcripts" are advised. ===Scotland's Places.=== *"scotlandsplaces.gov.uk" also falls under [https://scotlandsplaces.gov.uk/legals Crown Copyright] Law. And again, Crown Copyright "only" allows the free usage of "document content". ===The Scottish Register of Tartans=== *[https://www.tartanregister.gov.uk/copyright The Scottish Register of Tartans] allows for use of images in a restricted manner under ''Fair Dealings''. This provides for the use of Images/Documents, "which are still under Copyright Law", in a non-commercial study or research, criticism, review or reporting of current events. Permission from the Copyright Owner and an "Acknowledgement' is definitely called for. ===Rampant Scotland.=== *All the text and graphics on "rampantscotland.com" are owned by "Rampant Scotland" unless otherwise stated. Graphics are free to download for personal use or by clubs and societies. Attribution is recommended. Any other use of text or graphics please contact the editor. See: [http://www.rampantscotland.com/features/privacy.htm Privacy Policy]. ===Electric Scotland.=== *[https://electricscotland.com Electric Scotland] is a comprehensive site containing the history and culture of Scotland and Scots abroad, and also has a [https://electricscotland.com/history/world.htm Scots Diaspora] section. Please follow it's [https://electricscotland.com/ester.htm Terms of Service] regarding Copyright. ===Scottish Archive Network.=== *"scan.org.uk" or the Scottish Archive Network, started in 1999, is a combined effort to digitise historical records. This facility is developing all the time and will build into a major research resource for all types of archive users. It is maintained by the "National Archives of Scotland", so we believe that all documents will fall under [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Crown_copyright Crown Copyright]. ===British History Online.=== *[https://www.british-history.ac.uk/terms british-history.ac.uk] is a not for profit Digital Library with a range of premium subscription publications available with permission from the staff. The usual "Copyright" rules apply for each individual item, and "citation and acknowledgement" are asked for, by the site. ===FamilySearch.=== *With regards to usage of [https://www.familysearch.org/help/salesforce/viewArticle?urlname=Copyright-questions-and-answers-for-patrons-1381815054418&lang=en "familysearch.org"] Images, The Scotland Project recommends that... "Unless you are the creator of the item/original document/image/source, please do not upload any images from "Family Search". Please use "inline citations" with [https://www.wikitree.com/wiki/Help:FamilySearch_Connections links] to the original source, i.e. Birth, Marriage, Death, Census, et. al. involved, and also adding a Transcript of the content of any census, will, etc. The FS website facilitates this citation link with a ready made citation to the left side of the document search. It is then a simple matter to copy/paste the transcript of the census, etc, to the profile bio. [https://www.wikitree.com/wiki/Help:Sources_Style_Guide Links to FS trees] do not constitute a reliable primary source and therefore are not recommended for use by the Scotland Project. ===FindMyPast.=== *"findmypast.com" is a behind a pay per view wall, therefore any links will not be able to be viewed by anybody without a [https://www.wikitree.com/wiki/Help:Sources_Style_Guide#Commercial_Web_Sites_as_Sources subscription]. The Scotland Project therefore recommends transcribing the document content by hand or copy/paste. See: [https://www.findmypast.com/content/terms-and-conditions#19 Intellectual Property Rights]. ===Ancestry.=== *[https://www.ancestry.com/cs/legal/health-terms#ContentUsed "ancestry.com"] is another behind a paywall site and again, any links will not be [https://www.wikitree.com/wiki/Help:Sources_Style_Guide#Commercial_Web_Sites_as_Sources viewable] to anybody without a subscription. Again, the Scotland Project advises "Transcribing the document content" for your use on WT. ===Geni.=== *"[https://www.geni.com/company/terms_of_use geni.com]" was acquired by MyHeritage in 2012 and again, is another site that is partially behind a [https://www.wikitree.com/wiki/Help:Sources_Style_Guide#Commercial_Web_Sites_as_Sources paywall site]. You can register for a free account, but images may be under copyright if not personally uploaded by the user. ===MyHeritage.=== *"[https://www.myheritage.com/FP/Company/popup.php?p=terms_conditions myheritage.com]" is a behind a paywall site and links are [https://www.wikitree.com/wiki/Help:Sources_Style_Guide#Commercial_Web_Sites_as_Sources not viewable] by anybody without a subscription.And, again, Images may be under copyright if not personally uploaded by the user. ===BillionGraves.=== *"billiongraves.com" is an incorporated company who invites submissions and transcribing to it's site. All content is subject to [https://billiongraves.com/terms-of-use Copyright use allowances] for Images and content made by user submission. It is recommended to ask for permission to use any Headstone Images. ===FindAGrave.=== *"findagrave.com" is another virtual Cemetery site who also invites submissions from members who look after memorials. Like BillionGraves, all content is subject to [https://www.ancestry.com/cs/legal/termsandconditions Copyright use allowances] for Images and content made by user submission. Again, the "Scotland Project" recommends gaining permission to use any Headstone Images, from the owner of the Image. ===GenealogyBank.=== *[https://www.genealogybank.com/information/terms-of-use "genealogybank.com"] is another behind a [https://www.wikitree.com/wiki/Help:Sources_Style_Guide#Commercial_Web_Sites_as_Sources paywall site]. Again, transcription is recommended as links are not free to see. ===NewspaperArchive.=== *"[https://newspaperarchive.com/copyright/ newspaperarchive.com"] is another [https://www.wikitree.com/wiki/Help:Sources_Style_Guide#Commercial_Web_Sites_as_Sources pay site]. ===British Newspaper Archive.=== *[https://help-and-advice.britishnewspaperarchive.co.uk/knowledgebase/topics/145174-reproducing-newspapers-from-the-british-newspaper "britishnewspaperarchive.co.uk"] is also a pay site. Their content can also be viewed under a [https://www.britishnewspaperarchive.co.uk/help/about Findmypast subscription]. ===Trove.=== *[https://help.nla.gov.au/trove/our-policies/copyright "trove.nla.gov.au"] is an "Australian" content archive of mostly old newspapers. It falls under an "Australian Creative Commons Copyright License" envelope unless otherwise stated on the article. Please note: This site is Australian and as such, copyright laws slightly differ. ===Hathitrust.=== *The [https://www.hathitrust.org/access_use "hathitrust.org"] Digital Library has a combination of Public Domain, Open Use and Copyright works in its collection of publications. Please follow the guidelines on their site for each publication, including attribution. ===Project Gutenberg.=== *[http://www.gutenberg.org/wiki/Gutenberg:Terms_of_Use#Book_Copyright "gutenberg.org"] falls under Free Use policy. All their eBooks are free to use, read and download. They do ask for donations. ===Wikipedia.=== *[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Text_of_Creative_Commons_Attribution-ShareAlike_3.0_Unported_License "en.wikipedia.org"] policy is basically to "create and promote content which is free of encumbrances of Copyright where ever possible". Therefore, although most Wikipedia content is copyright free, "not all" of it is. Therefore, the "whole Wikipedia page" should be read in whole. They advise that users comply with "each" individual Image's usage license. ===Photograph Images=== *Due to the complexity of Copyright on Images from other people, it is advised to only use "Recent Images" which you have taken yourself. *Vintage "Public Domain Images" taken or made by other persons before 1923 are also in the safe to use zone. *Please see: [https://copyright.cornell.edu/publicdomain US Copyright] for specific information related to the United States. *From 1923-1968, any works registered but not renewed, are in the [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Public_domain Public Domain]. *All public works without copyrights notice from 1923-1977 are free to use. *From 1978-1989, all published work without copyright notice and subsequent registration within 5 years are also in the [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Public_domain Public Domain]. *Any works created during the 1970's "with copyright by the creator" are "Under Copyright" for the lifetime of the creator, plus 70 years. See: [https://www.wikitree.com/wiki/Help:Photos_FAQ#How_do_you_know_if_you_have_permission_to_upload_a_photo.3F Photos FAQ] ===Pixabay.=== *[https://pixabay.com/service/terms/ "pixabay.com"] has many royalty free Images. Hotlinks are not allowed. Content may be protected by trademarks, publicity or privacy rights. Pixabay has now moved their policy to an Unsplash policy. This now constitutes a grey area as far as Copyright goes. See: [https://pixabay.com/service/terms/ Pixabay Terms]. So, the Scotland Project recommends, to avoid using photos with people, private properties, logos or trademarks. ===Wikimedia Commons.=== *[https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Commons:Welcome "commons.wikimedia.org"] has a large collection of freely usable Images. However, not all are free to use. Some need the permission of the owner.

[[image:Declaration_of_Arbroath.jpg|center|400px|The Tyninghame copy of the Declaration of Arbroath, 1320.]]
=== About the Declaration of Arbroath, 1320 === '''[[Wikipedia:Declaration_of_Arbroath|The Declaration of Arbroath]]''', or more accurately titled '''A Letter from the Nobility, Barons and Commons of Scotland to Pope John XXII''', was a declaration of [[Wikipedia:Scottish_independence|Scottish independence]], made in 1320. It is in the form of a letter in Latin submitted to Pope John XXII, dated 6 April 1320, intended to confirm Scotland's status as a sovereign State, independent of England, it defended Scotland's right to use force when unjustly attacked and sought support from the Pope to prevent English transgressions against the Scots.

Like the English [[:Category:Magna Carta |Magna Carta]], it is sometimes thought that the ideals of the Scottish Declaration of Arbroath inspired notions of individual liberty in the charters of the English colonies in North America, and later the [[Wikipedia:United_States_Declaration_of_Independence|Declaration of Independence]] and the [[Wikipedia:United_States_Constitution|U.S. Constitution]].
'''Quia quamdiu Centum ex nobis vivi remanserint, nuncquam Anglorum dominio aliquatenus volumus subiugari. Non enim propter gloriam, divicias aut honores pugnamus set propter libertatem solummodo quam Nemo bonus nisi simul cum vita amittit.'''
Latin Original.
'''For, as long as but a hundred of us remain alive, never will we on any conditions be brought under English rule. It is in truth not for glory, nor riches, nor honours that we are fighting, but for freedom – for that alone, which no honest man gives up but with life itself.'''
English translation.

Text (Translated from the original Latin)

To the most Holy Father and Lord in Christ, the Lord John, by divine providence Supreme Pontiff of the Holy Roman and Universal Church, his humble and devout sons Duncan, Earl of Fife, Thomas Randolph, Earl of Moray, Lord of Man and of Annandale, Patrick Dunbar, Earl of March, Malise, Earl of Strathearn, Malcolm, Earl of Lennox, William, Earl of Ross, Magnus, Earl of Caithness and Orkney, and William, Earl of Sutherland; Walter, Steward of Scotland, William Soules, Butler of Scotland, James, Lord of Douglas, Roger Mowbray, David, Lord of Brechin, David Graham, Ingram Umfraville, John Menteith, guardian of the earldom of Menteith, Alexander Fraser, Gilbert Hay, Constable of Scotland, Robert Keith, Marischal of Scotland, Henry St Clair, John Graham, David Lindsay, William Oliphant, Patrick Graham, John Fenton, William Abernethy, David Wemyss, William Mushet, Fergus of Ardrossan, Eustace Maxwell, William Ramsay, William Mowat, Alan Murray, Donald Campbell, John Cameron, Reginald Cheyne, Alexander Seton, Andrew Leslie, and Alexander Straiton, and the other barons and freeholders and the whole community of the realm of Scotland send all manner of filial reverence, with devout kisses of his blessed feet. Most Holy Father and Lord, we know and from the chronicles and books of the ancients we find that among other famous nations our own, the Scots, has been graced with widespread renown. They journeyed from Greater Scythia by way of the Tyrrhenian Sea and the Pillars of Hercules, and dwelt for a long course of time in Spain among the most savage tribes, but nowhere could they be subdued by any race, however barbarous. Thence they came, twelve hundred years after the people of Israel crossed the Red Sea, to their home in the west where they still live today. The Britons they first drove out, the Picts they utterly destroyed, and, even though very often assailed by the Norwegians, the Danes and the English, they took possession of that home with many victories and untold efforts; and, as the historians of old time bear witness, they have held it free of all bondage ever since. In their kingdom there have reigned one hundred and thirteen kings of their own royal stock, the line unbroken a single foreigner. The high qualities and deserts of these people, were they not otherwise manifest, gain glory enough from this: that the King of kings and Lord of lords, our Lord Jesus Christ, after His Passion and Resurrection, called them, even though settled in the uttermost parts of the earth, almost the first to His most holy faith. Nor would He have them confirmed in that faith by merely anyone but by the first of His Apostles - by calling, though second or third in rank - the most gentle Saint Andrew, the Blessed Peter's brother, and desired him to keep them under his protection as their patron forever. The Most Holy Fathers your predecessors gave careful heed to these things and bestowed many favours and numerous privileges on this same kingdom and people, as being the special charge of the Blessed Peter's brother. Thus our nation under their protection did indeed live in freedom and peace up to the time when that mighty prince the King of the English, Edward, the father of the one who reigns today, when our kingdom had no head and our people harboured no malice or treachery and were then unused to wars or invasions, came in the guise of a friend and ally to harass them as an enemy. The deeds of cruelty, massacre, violence, pillage, arson, imprisoning prelates, burning down monasteries, robbing and killing monks and nuns, and yet other outrages without number which he committed against our people, sparing neither age nor sex, religion nor rank, no one could describe nor fully imagine unless he had seen them with his own eyes. But from these countless evils we have been set free, by the help of Him Who though He afflicts yet heals and restores, by our most tireless Prince, King and Lord, the Lord Robert. He, that his people and his heritage might be delivered out of the hands of our enemies, met toil and fatigue, hunger and peril, like another Macabaeus or Joshua and bore them cheerfully. Him, too, divine providence, his right of succession according to or laws and customs which we shall maintain to the death, and the due consent and assent of us all have made our Prince and King. To him, as to the man by whom salvation has been wrought unto our people, we are bound both by law and by his merits that our freedom may be still maintained, and by him, come what may, we mean to stand. Yet if he should give up what he has begun, and agree to make us or our kingdom subject to the King of England or the English, we should exert ourselves at once to drive him out as our enemy and a subverter of his own rights and ours, and make some other man who was well able to defend us our King; for, as long as but a hundred of us remain alive, never will we on any conditions be brought under English rule. It is in truth not for glory, nor riches, nor honours that we are fighting, but for freedom, for that alone, which no honest man gives up but with life itself. Therefore it is, Reverend Father and Lord, that we beseech your Holiness with our most earnest prayers and suppliant hearts, inasmuch as you will in your sincerity and goodness consider all this, that, since with Him Whose Vice-Regent on earth you are there is neither weighing nor distinction of Jew and Greek, Scotsman or Englishman, you will look with the eyes of a father on the troubles and privation brought by the English upon us and upon the Church of God. May it please you to admonish and exhort the King of the English, who ought to be satisfied with what belongs to him since England used once to be enough for seven kings or more, to leave us Scots in peace, who live in this poor little Scotland, beyond which there is no dwelling-place at all, and covet nothing but our own. We are sincerely willing to do anything for him, having regard to our condition, that we can, to win peace for ourselves. This truly concerns you, Holy Father, since you see the savagery of the heathen raging against the Christians, as the sins of Christians have indeed deserved, and the frontiers of Christendom being pressed inward every day; and how much it will tarnish your Holiness's memory if (which God forbid) the Church suffers eclipse or scandal in any branch of it during your time, you must perceive. Then rouse the Christian princes who for false reasons pretend that they cannot go to help of the Holy Land because of wars they have on hand with their neighbours. The real reason that prevents them is that in making war on their smaller neighbours they find quicker profit and weaker resistance. But how cheerfully our Lord the King and we too would go there if the King of the English would leave us in peace, He from Whom nothing is hidden well knows; and we profess and declare it to you as the Vicar of Christ and to all Christendom. But if your Holiness puts too much faith in the tales the English tell and will not give sincere belief to all this, nor refrain from favouring them to our prejudice, then the slaughter of bodies, the perdition of souls, and all the other misfortunes that will follow, inflicted by them on us and by us on them, will, we believe, be surely laid by the Most High to your charge. To conclude, we are and shall ever be, as far as duty calls us, ready to do your will in all things, as obedient sons to you as His Vicar; and to Him as the Supreme King and Judge we commit the maintenance of our cause, csating our cares upon Him and firmly trusting that He will inspire us with courage and bring our enemies to nought. May the Most High preserve you to his Holy Church in holiness and health and grant you length of days. Given at the monastery of Arbroath in Scotland on the sixth day of the month of April in the year of grace thirteen hundred and twenty and the fifteenth year of the reign of our King aforesaid. Endorsed: Letter directed to our Lord the Supreme Pontiff by the community of Scotland.
== Mission == The Mission of this project is to improve the Profiles of the Nobles and Barons of the Declaration of Arbroath, including three generations of their descendants within Scotland. If you have Declaration of Arbroath ancestry, or you'd just like to help improve Declaration of Arbroath-related profiles on WikiTree, we'd love to have you join the project! Please note: To work on the profiles of the signatories you will need to be pre-1500 qualified. The steps to achieve this are noticed [[Help:Pre-1500_Profiles|here]]. There will be an opportunity for members who do not have the pre-1500 badge but who are interested in working toward it, to assist on profiles under the guidance of a member who does hold the badge. Please see [https://www.wikitree.com/wiki/Space:Declaration_of_Arbroath_Nobility this page] for further details. === Initial Goals === #To locate or create a WikiTree profile for each signatory and person who had their seal attached to the Declaration of Arbroath. To add each profile to [[:Category:Declaration of Arbroath ]]. The list of Singatories and Sealants to the Baron's Letter are included at [[:Space:Declaration of Arbroath Nobility|Nobility of the Declaration of Arbroath]]; #To trace three generations of descendants for each of the signers; # To complete each profile in accordance with [https://www.wikitree.com/index.php?title=Space:Arbroath_Profiles_Checklist&public=1 the Arbroath Managed Profiles Checklist]. == Joining the Declaration of Arbroath Project == The Declaration of Arbroath Project is not for the faint of heart, but it offers a unique opportunity to collaborate and learn. Because each signer may average from fifteen to twenty generations of descendants, which would include many thousands of profiles, we have limited the scope of the project to correctly identifying and creating comprehensive profiles for each signer and three generations of their descendants living within Scotland. When that has been accomplished, it may be possible to revisit our goals and enlarge the scope of the project. === Getting Started === Declaration of Arbroath Project members must be comfortable creating '''rigorous, sourced profiles'''; thoughtfully handling ambiguous and '''disputed information'''; and interacting '''courteously with less-experienced PMs and editors''' who may, understandably, have passionate feelings about their family's lineage. ====Assignments==== There were, at least, four copies of the document. Two copies were certainly drafts; another was the copy held by the Papal Archives (the delivered copy), which has since been lost; and the final remaining copy is held by the National Records of Scotland at Edinburgh, which was damaged when held at Tyninghame during renovation of the National Archives. A copy, likely of the delivered copy, was located at St Isidore's College, Rome and transferred to the Irish Franciscans' Dublin Archive in 1872, becoming known as the Wadding document; this copy was not know to Ferguson. This copy is discussed at The Scottish Historical Review, Nov 2011, vo. 90, No. 2 : pp. 296-315. The most widely known English language translation was made by Sir James Fergusson, formerly Keeper of the Records of Scotland, from the original document which he fortunately copied prior to the renovation. The text that he reconstructed uses the original copy and early copies of the original draft. On this document there are 39 names —eight earls and thirty one barons— listed in the document as representing the "Nobility, Barons and Commons" (in other words, all freemen). All of these would have have had their seals appended, probably over the space of some weeks and months, with nobles sending in their seals to be used. On the last remaining copy of the Declaration there are only 19 seals, and of those 19 people only 12 are named within the document. It is thought likely that at least 11 more seals than the original 39 might have been appended.

[[Category: Scotland Project Managed FSPs]] [[Category: Baronetage of Nova Scotia]] There were three baronetcies created for members of the Dick family: [[:Space:Scotland - Dick Baronetcies]] * The baronetcy in Prestonfield, Edinburgh was created in the Baronetage of Nova Scotia for James Dick in 1677. *The Dick-Cunyngham baronetcy of Lambrughton, Ayr was created in the Baronetage of Nova Scotia for John Cunningham in 1669. Merged with the Prestonfield baronetcy in 1829 it became extinct in 1941. From 1683 the family seat was at Caprington, Ayrshire and from 1740 at Prestonfield. * The baronetcy of Braid. On 14 March 1768, John Dick, the British consul in Leghorn, was recognised in an Edinburgh court as holder of the Dick baronetcy of Braid. This baronetcy was supposed to have been created for Sir William Dick of Braid (c.1590–1655) who was Provost of Edinburgh in 1638, however the baronetcy was never proved in law. It was recognised by Walford's County Families, Douglas' Baronage, and Dod's and Debrett's Peerages, but not Burke's. In 1873, The Herald and Genealogist found no contemporary evidence that Sir William Dick of Braid had received a baronetcy. Chamberlayne's Present State of Great Britain, upon which John Dick's 1768 claim was founded, described the baronetcy as extinct.

[[Category: Scotland Project Managed FSPs]] [[Category:Dukes of Albany]] ==Duke of Albany== Duke of Albany is a peerage title that was first granted in 1398 by King Robert III of Scotland to his brother, Robert Stewart, in the Peerage of Scotland. "Albany" was a territorial term referring to the area of Scotland north of the River Forth and equivalent to the previous Kingdom of the Picts. The second creation was established in 1458 for Alexander Stewart and was forfeited in 1483. His son, John Stewart, was restored to the title in 1515 and died without an heir in 1536. The third creation, in 1541, was bestowed upon Robert (died in infancy); second son of James V of Scotland. The fourth creation was granted to Henry Stewart (Lord Darnley), king consort of Mary, Queen of Scots. It was merged, along with the title Duke of York, with the Scottish Crown upon their son's ascension to throne. The fifth creation, as well as Duke of York, were bestowed upon Charles, son of James VI and I, in 1604. They were again merged with the crown upon his ascension in 1625. In 1660 to Charles I's son, James, by Charles II. When James succeeded his elder brother to the throne in 1685, the titles again merged into the crown. Charlotte, daughter of Charles Edward Stewart, was given the title Duchess of Albany. She died in 1789. The combined title "Duke of York and Albany" was granted three times by the Hanoverian kings (see [[:Category: Dukes of York and Albany|Dukes of York and Albany]]). The title of "Duke of Albany" was granted once again; this time in the Peerage of the United Kingdom, in 1881 to Prince Leopold. He was the fourth son of Queen Victoria. Prince Leopold's son, Prince Charles Edward (who had succeeded as reigning Duke of Saxe-Coburg and Gotha in 1900), was deprived of the peerage in 1919 for bearing arms against the United Kingdom in World War I. Under the Titles Deprivation Act 1917, the legitimate lineal male heir of the 1st Duke of Albany (his senior agnatic descendant is currently the 2nd Duke's great-grandson, Hubertus Prinz von Sachsen-Coburg und Gotha) may petition the British Crown for the restoration of the peerages. However, because none of the descendants of the 2nd Duke, being estranged from the British Royal Family due to their German loyalties, asked the British monarch to consent to their marriages, a strict reading of the Royal Marriages Act 1772 would render all of the 2nd Duke's grandchildren illegitimate in the eyes of British law, which would mean that the dukedom is not simply suspended but truly extinct. ==Dukes of Albany, first Creation (1398)== : :Other titles (1st Duke): [[:Category:Earls of Fife| Earl of Fife]] (1371), [[:Category:Earls of Buchan| Earl of Buchan]] (1374–1406), [[:Category:Earls of Atholl| Earl of Atholl]] (1403–1406) *[[Stewart-1526 |Robert Stewart]], 1st Duke of Albany (c. 1340–1420), third son of Robert II :Other titles (2nd Duke): [[:Category:Earls of Menteith| Earl of Menteith]] (bef 1189), [[:Category:Earls of Fife| Earl of Fife]] (1371), [[:Category:Earls of Buchan| Earl of Buchan]] (1374) *[[Stewart-1651 |Murdoch Stewart]], 2nd Duke of Albany (1362–1425), eldest son of the 1st Duke was attainted and his honours forfeit in 1425 ==Dukes of Albany, second Creation (1458)== : :Other titles (1st Duke): [[:Category:Earls of March| Earl of March]] (1455), [[:Category:Earls of Mar| Earls of Mar]] and '''Earl of Garioch''' (1482) * [[Stewart-3916 |Alexander Stewart]], 1st Duke of Albany (c. 1454–1485), second son of James II, forfeited his honours in 1479, was restored in 1482, then forfeited them again in 1483 : Other titles (2nd Duke): [[:Category:Earls of March| Earl of March]] (1455) * [[Stewart-18678 |John Stewart]], 2nd Duke of Albany (1481–1536), only legitimate son of the 1st Duke, was restored to his father's dukedom and Earldom of March in 1515.

[[Category: Scotland Project Managed FSPs]] [[Category:Dukes of Gordon]] '''Duke of Gordon''' adapted from en.wikipedia.org The title Duke of Gordon has been created once in the Peerage of Scotland and again in the Peerage of the United Kingdom. The Dukedom, named after the Clan Gordon, was first created for the 4th Marquess of Huntly, who on 3 November 1684 was created Duke of Gordon, Marquess of Huntly, Earl of Huntly and Enzie (all three of which he already held by an older creation), Viscount of Inverness, and Lord Strathaven, Balmore, Auchindoun, Garthie and Kincardine. On 2 July 1784, the 4th Duke was created Earl of Norwich, in the County of Norfolk, and Baron Gordon, of Huntley in the County of Gloucester, in the Peerage of Great Britain. The principal family seat was Gordon Castle. The Dukedom became extinct in 1836, along with all the titles created in 1684 and 1784. Most of the Gordon estates passed to the son of the 5th Duke's eldest sister, the 5th Duke of Richmond, whose main seat was Goodwood House in Sussex.[1] In 1876 his son, the 6th Duke, was created Duke of Gordon, of Gordon Castle in Scotland, and Earl of Kinrara, in the County of Inverness. The Duke holds four dukedoms (including the titular Aubigny-sur-Nère; see Duke of Aubigny), more than any other person in the realm. Aubigny is in the defunct Peerage of France and the central arms of the Duke are based on the original Jacobean ones for the Union of the Crowns, with the inherited but inactive English claims to the French throne also represented prominently.

[[Category: Scotland Project Managed FSPs]] [[Category:Dukes of Lennox]] '''Duke of Lennox''' adapted from en.wikipedia.org The title Duke of Lennox has been created several times in the Peerage of Scotland for Clan Stewart of Darnley. The Dukedom, named for the district of Lennox in Stirling, was first created in 1581, and had formerly been the Earldom of Lennox. The second Duke was made Duke of Richmond; at his death, the dukedom of Richmond became extinct. The fourth Duke of Lennox was also created Duke of Richmond; at the death of the sixth Duke, both the dukedoms became extinct. The Dukedom of Richmond and, one month later, that of Lennox were created in 1675 for Charles Lennox, an illegitimate son of Charles II.

[[Category: Scotland Project Managed FSPs]] [[Category:Dukes of Rothesay]] '''Duke of Rothesay''' Duke of Rothesay is a title of the heir apparent to the British throne, currently the [[Windsor-75|Prince William]]. It was a title of the heir apparent to the throne of the Kingdom of Scotland before 1707, of the Kingdom of Great Britain from 1707 to 1801, and now of the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland. It is the title mandated for use by the heir apparent when in Scotland, in preference to the English titles Duke of Cornwall (which also belongs to the eldest living son of the monarch, when and only when he is also heir apparent, by right) and Prince of Wales (traditionally granted to the heir apparent). The Duke of Rothesay also holds other Scottish titles, including those of Earl of Carrick, Baron of Renfrew, Lord of the Isles and Prince and Great Steward of Scotland. The title is named after Rothesay on the Isle of Bute, Argyll and Bute, but is not associated with any legal entity or landed property, unlike the Duchy of Cornwall.

[[Category: Scotland Project Managed FSPs]] [[Category:Earls Marischal]] '''Earl Marischal''' The genealogy of the fifteenth-century Keiths has suffered confusion in the past as a result of the measures which William Keith, Marshal of Scotland took to safeguard the descent of the family's lands. In 1442 William, Marischal of Scotland granted all his lands to his son Robert, but when Robert died in 1446, the lands reverted to his 2nd son William, who was created 1st Earl Marischal.

[[Category: Scotland Project Managed FSPs]] The category for [[:Category:Earls of Angus| Earls of Angus]] encompasses the Earls in the Peerage of Scotland created by the monarch of Scotland before 1707. Following that year's Treaty of Union, the Kingdom of Scots and the Kingdom of England were combined under the name of Great Britain, and a new Peerage of Great Britain was introduced in which subsequent titles were created. Noticed on [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Peerage_of_Scotland wikipedia]. The primary source reference for research into this field are the nine volumes of Sir Balfour Paul's work, "The Scots Peerage". == Earl of Angus == The Earl of Angus in the Peerage of Scotland, is held by the [[:Category: Dukes of Hamilton|Duke of Hamilton]], and is used as a courtesy title for the eldest son of the Duke's eldest son. The title is derived from the holdings of the [[:Category: Mormaers of Angus| Mormaer of Angus]]. It originated in, now, Forfarshire and formed one of the ancient kingdoms of Pictish Scotland (Fortriu (See: [[:Category: Scottish History|History of Scotland]]). In the time of [[Dunkeld-32|King Alexander I.]], the Mormaers were superseded in their various provinces by persons bearing the title of Earl, which was coming into use at the period. This category starts from this period and with Gilbert was the first on record to hold the title of Earl of Angus. He may have descended from the ancient Mormaers of the district, but of this there is no proof. While there is historical debate regarding the origin of the Earldom, after the death of Malcolm, Earl of Angus, about 1240, the Earldom passed to his only child, a daughter, Matilda. Matilda was married to Sir Gilbert de Umfraville who thus adopted the title, by right of his wife. ==Early Earls of Angus== * [[Angus-22|Gille Brigte, Earl of Angus]], ''fl''. 1150 * [[Of_Angus-16|Adam, Earl of Angus]], ''fl''. 1189 * [[Ogilvie-61|Gille Críst, Earl of Angus]], ?–1206 * [[Angus-29|Donnchadh, Earl of Angus]], 1206–1214 * [[Angus-25|Maol Choluim, Earl of Angus]], 1214–1240 * [[Angus-17|Matilda, Countess of Angus]] (or Maud) **m.

[[Category: Scotland Project Managed FSPs]] [[Category:Earls of Atholl]] ==Earl of Atholl== The Mormaer or Earl of Atholl refers to a medieval comital lordship straddling the highland province of Atholl (Ath Fodhla), now in northern Perthshire. Atholl is a special Mormaerdom, because a King of Atholl is reported from the Pictish period. The only other two Pictish kingdoms to be known from contemporary sources are Fortriu and Circinn. Indeed, the early thirteenth century document known to modern scholars as the de Situ Albanie repeats the claim that Atholl was an ancient Pictish kingdom. In the eleventh century, the famous Crínán of Dunkeld may have performed the role of Mormaer. Royal connections continued with Máel Muire, who was the son of King Donnchad I, and the younger brother of Máel Coluim III mac Donnchada. Matad was perhaps the most famous of the Mormaers, fathering Harald Maddadsson, a notorious rebel of the Scottish King and perhaps the first Gael to rule Orkney as Earl of Orkney. The line of Máel Muire and Crínán came to an end when Forbhlaith, the daughter of Mormaer Henry married David de Hastings. The latter marriage produced a daughter, Ada, who married into the Strathbogie family, a semi-Normanized Gaelic family with Fife origins. The Strathbogies ruled until the Wars of Independence, when the Campells took over. It finally passed to the Stewarts.

[[Category: Scotland Project Managed FSPs]] [[Category:Earls of Avondale]] There have been several peerage titles created with the name Avondale (or Avandale), referring to the dale (or valley) of the Avon Water in Scotland. The word strath also means valley, and the area is now better known as Strathaven. The title Earl of Avondale, along with that of Lord Balveny, was created for [[Douglas-651|James Douglas]], known as "the Gross", in 1437. He was a younger son of [[Douglas-404|Archibald Douglas, 3rd Earl of Douglas]] and succeeded to the Earldom of Douglas in 1440 following the deaths of his nephew and great-nephew. The titles were forfeit in 1455 on the attainder of his son [[Douglas-654|James Douglas, 9th Earl of Douglas and 3rd Earl of Avondale]]. The second creation was for Andrew Stuart, who was created Lord Avondale in 1459. He was a son of Sir Walter Stewart and therefore a grandson of Murdoch Stewart, 2nd Duke of Albany. He served as Chancellor of Scotland between 1460 and 1482, and died in 1488, when the title became extinct. The third creation was for another Andrew Stuart, who was created Lord Avondale in about 1499. He was a great-grandson of Sir Walter Stewart, and thus a great-nephew of the first Lord Avondale. On his death on 9 September 1513, he was succeeded by his son, also named Andrew. The second Lord Avondale exchanged his title for that of Lord Ochiltree on 15 March 1543. The most recent creation was for Prince Albert Victor, eldest son of the Prince of Wales (later King Edward VII). He was created Duke of Clarence and Avondale and Earl of Athlone on 24 May 1890, but died on 14 January 1892, when the titles became extinct. ----

[[Category: Scotland Project Managed FSPs]] [[Category:Earls of Buchan]] '''Earl of Buchan''' The Mormaer or Earl of Buchan (pron.: /mɔːrˈmɛr/, pron.: /ˈbʌkən/) was originally the provincial ruler of the medieval province of Buchan. Buchan was the first Mormaerdom in the High Medieval Kingdom of the Scots to pass into the hands of a non-Scottish family in the male line. The earldom had three lines in its history, not counting passings from female heiresses to sons. Today it is held by the Erskine family as a peerage.

[[Category: Scotland Project Managed FSPs]] [[Category:Earls of Carrick]] The Earl of Carrick was the head of a comital lordship of Carrick in southwestern Scotland. The title emerged in 1186, when Donnchad, son of Gille Brigte, Lord of Galloway, became Mormaer or Earl of Carrick in compensation for exclusion from the whole Lordship of Galloway. The title has been recreated several times in the Peerage of Scotland. Donnchadh's granddaughter Marjorie (Marthoc, Martha, Margaret), who later held the title in her own right, married Robert de Brus, who later became Lord of Annandale. Their son, also named Robert and known as "Robert the Bruce", would later rule Scotland as King Robert I, causing the earldom to merge into the Crown. Robert was also created a baron in the Peerage of England by writ of summons in 1295 as Baron Bruce of Anandale; the title became abeyant with the death of his son David II in 1371. Thereafter, successive Kings of Scots re-created the Earldom several times, but made it non-heritable, specifying that the earldom would revert to the Crown upon the death of the holder. Thus several creations ended with a reversion to the crown or with the holder becoming King. In 1362, Sir William Cunningham, Laird of Glencairn, received a charter of the Earldom of Carrick from King David II (Page 122; Metcalfe, W. M.. "The County of Renfrew." A history of the county of Renfrew from the earliest times. Paisley: A. Gardner, 1905. . Print.) In 1469, the Scots Parliament passed an Act declaring that the eldest son of the King and heir to the throne would hold the Earldom, along with the Dukedom of Rothesay. After the Union of the Crowns of Scotland and England, the Dukedom and Earldom have been held by the eldest son and heir of the Kings of England and Scotland, later the Kings of Great Britain, and finally the Kings of the United Kingdom. The current earl is HRH Prince Charles, Prince of Wales. King James VI and I created John Stuart "Earl of Carrick", in Orkney, in the Peerage of Scotland. He had already been made Lord Kincleven in 1607, also in the Peerage of Scotland. Stuart was a younger son of Robert Stewart, 1st Earl of Orkney, illegitimate son of King James V of Scotland. He was granted title to the island of Eday in 1632 and he constructed a substantial mansion house at Calfsound on its northern shores shortly thereafter. He also had property in Ayrshire and hankered after the prestigious title of Earl of Carrick. King James allowed him to name his new Eday property "Carrick House" enabling him to have the style, if not the substance of this title. Lord Carrick had no legitimate male issue and the titles became extinct on his death in 1652. In 1897 The Ayrshire Yeomanry Cavalry, a British Yeomanry Cavalry Regiment, adopted the sub-title Earl of Carrick's Own in honour of the future King Edward VII. [[Wikipedia: Earl_of_Carrick]]

[[Category: Scotland Project Managed FSPs]] [[Category:Earls of Dunbar]] The title Earl of Dunbar, also called Earl of Lothian or [[:Category: Earls of March|Earls of March]], was the head of a comital lordship in south-eastern Scotland between the early 12th century and the early 15th century. The first man to use the title of Earl in this earldom was Gospatric II, Earl of Lothian, son of Gospatric, Earl of Northumbria. It descended to George de Dunbar, 11th Earl of March, who was forfeited by parliament of his titles & estates in 1435, and retired into obscurity in England. His son Patrick retained a barony at Kilconquhar in Fife. The title of Earl of Dunbar was resurrected in 1605 was for George Home, 1st Lord Hume of Berwick, Chancellor of the Exchequer, and his heirs male. This title became dormant only six years after its creation, upon Home's death in 1611. Some of his kinsmen were said to be acknowledged as de jure holders of the title, but none of them ever appears to have assumed the title. There have been no subsequent creations, however, two other peerages with similar names are Lord of Dunbar and Viscount of Dunbar.

The title was revived in 1953, when it was determined that the first Earl did indeed have heirs-male, contrary to the assertion of the crown. The title was given to Henry James Scrymgeour-Wedderburn, who had previously served in the House of Commons and in the Cabinet.

[[Category: Scotland Project Managed FSPs]] [[Category:Earls of Fife]] =Earl of Fife= The Earl of Fife or Mormaer of Fife referred to the Gaelic comital lordship of Fife which existed in Scotland until the early 15th century. The Mormaers of Fife were the highest ranking native nobles in Scotland. They frequently held the office of Justiciar of Scotia - highest brithem in the land - and enjoyed the right of crowning the Kings of Scots. The Mormaer's function, as with other medieval Scottish lordships, was kin-based. Hence, in 1385, the Earl of Fife, seen as the successor of the same lordship, is called capitalis legis de Clenmcduffe (=Lord of the Law of the Children of Macduff). The lordship existed in the Middle Ages until its last earl, Murdoch (Muireadhach), Duke of Albany, was executed by James I of Scotland.

[[Category: Scotland Project Managed FSPs]] [[Category:Earls of Lennox]] '''Earl of Lennox''' The Mormaer of Lennox or Earl of Lennox was the ruler of the long-lasting provincial Mormaerdom/Earldom of Lennox in the Medieval Kingdom of the Scots. The first Mormaer is usually regarded as Ailin I (also Alpin, Alun or Alwin), but the genealogy of the Mormaers gives earlier names. The last Mormaer of the native line was Isabella, who married Muireadhach Stewart, the Duke of Albany, and died in 1458. The recent work of Cynthia Neville and Michael Brown has made Lennox perhaps the best understood native scottish Mormaerdom. After the extinction of the Lennox line, the Scottish Peerage title of Earl of Lennox was granted to John Stewart, Lord Darnley. It has been "created" six times, becoming extinct every time. The Earl of Lennox was elevated to Duke of Lennox in 1581.

[[Category: Scotland Project Managed FSPs]] [[Category:Earls of Mar]] ==Earl of Mar== The Mormaer or Earl of Mar is a title that has been reaffirmed seven times, all in the Peerage of Scotland. The first creation of the earldom was originally the provincial ruler of the province of Mar in north-eastern Scotland. First attested in the year 1014, the "family seat" eventually became Kildrummy Castle, although other sites like Doune of Invernochty were initially just as important. The title evolved into a peerage title, and was made particularly famous by John Erskine, 23rd Earl of Mar who was an important Jacobite military leader during the 1715 Jacobite rising. Owing to a nineteenth-century dispute, there are currently two Earls of Mar, with James Thorne Erskine, 15th Earl of Mar and 17th Earl of Kellie and Margaret of Mar, 31st Countess of Mar. The Earl of Mar and Kellie is the hereditary Clan Chief of Clan Erskine; the Countess of Mar is the hereditary Clan Chief of Clan Mar. ==Earls of Mar, first creation (1404) (as deemed by Act of Parliament in 1885)== :Current subsidiary title: Lord Garioch (created 1320) * Robert Erskine, 1st Lord Erskine; (deemed 13th Earl of Mar by 1885 Act, with precedence from 1404) (died 1453)[Note 1] * Thomas Erskine, 2nd Lord Erskine, 14th Earl of Mar (died 1494) * Alexander Erskine, 3rd Lord Erskine, 15th Earl of Mar (died 1510) * Robert Erskine, 4th Lord Erskine, 16th Earl of Mar (died 1513) * John Erskine, 5th Lord Erskine, 17th Earl of Mar (died 1555) * John Erskine, 6th Lord Erskine, 18th and 1st Earl of Mar (died 1572) (deemed restored to Earldom of Mar by 1885 Act; deemed also to have been created Earl of Mar by House of Lords, 1875) * John Erskine, 19th/2nd Earl of Mar (c. 1558–1634) * John Erskine, 20th/3rd Earl of Mar (c. 1585–1654) * John Erskine, 21st/4th Earl of Mar (died 1668) * Charles Erskine, 22nd/5th Earl of Mar (1650–1689) * John Erskine, 23rd/6th Earl of Mar (1675–1732) (attainted 1716) * John Francis Erskine, 24th/7th Earl of Mar (1741–1825) (restored 1824) * John Thomas Erskine, 25th/8th Earl of Mar (1772–1828) * John Francis Miller Erskine, 11th Earl of Kellie, 26th/9th Earl of Mar (1795–1866) (succeeded to Earldom of Kellie 1829, confirmed 1835) * Walter Coningsby Erskine, 12th Earl of Kellie, 27th/10th Earl of Mar (1810–1872) (recognized as Earl after his death) * John Francis Erskine Goodeve-Erskine, 28th Earl of Mar (1836–1930) (confirmed 1885)[Note 2] * John Francis Hamilton Sinclair Cunliffe Brooks Forbes Goodeve-Erskine, 29th Earl of Mar (1868–1932) * Lionel Walter Erskine-Young, 30th Earl of Mar (1891–1965) * James Clifton of Mar, 31st Earl of Mar (1914–1975) * Margaret Alison of Mar, 32nd Countess of Mar (born 1940)[6] :The heir presumptive is Susan Helen of Mar, Mistress of Mar (b. 1963).

[[Category: Scotland Project Managed FSPs]] [[Category:Earls of Menteith]] =Introduction= '''Earl of Menteith''' The Mormaer or Earl of Menteith was originally the ruler of the province of Menteith in the Middle Ages. The first mormaer is usually regarded as Gille Críst, simply because he is the earliest on record. The title was held in a continuous line from Gille Crist until Muireadhach IV (aka Murdoch Stewart, Duke of Albany), although the male line was broken on two occasions. A truncated version of the earldom was given two years later to Malise Graham, 1st Earl of Menteith (2nd Making), in compensation for loss of the Earldom of Strathearn, which was a likely result of the execution of the Duke of Albany.[[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mormaer_of_Menteith 1]] '''The Mormaer Line''' * [[Menteith-14 |Gille Crist Menteith]] 1st Earl of Menteith. ?-1189 * [[DeMenteith-3 |Murdoch Menteith]] 2nd Earl of Menteith. 1189-1213 * [[Menteith-11 |Maurice Menteith]] 3rd Earl of Menteith. 1213-1233 * [[DeMentieth-1|Isabella Menteith]] Countess of Menteith in own right (died without issue). 1233-1272.

[[Category: Scotland Project Managed FSPs]] [[Category:Earls of Orkney]] ==Earl of Orkney== Although in 1379 Haakon VI Magnusson granted the earldom to Henry Sinclair, a Scotsman, the Earldom was still held to the Norwegian throne. In 1468 however, the Orkney and Shetland islands were ceded, by Christian I of Denmark and Norway, against the unpaid dowry of his daughter Princess Margaret who was betrothed to the Scottish prince James III. Christian I never paid the dowry money owed to James' father and thus the two island groups became part of the Scottish kingdom. The incumbent Earl was William Sinclair. James took the Earldom of Orkney for the Crown in 1470, and William was thereafter Earl of Caithness alone until he resigned the Earldom in favour of his son William in 1476, dying in 1484. It was granted once again to George Hamilton.

[[Category: Scotland Project Managed FSPs]] [[Category:Earls of Ross]] ==Earldom of Ross== === c. 600 AD to 1020=== The lands of what became the Earldom of Ross were once part of the lands of Moray and first appear on record as being under control of, if not under the immediate government of, the Norwegian Earls (Jarls), from Jarl Sigurd Eysteinson, who died in 874, down to Jarl Thorfinn, who died in or after 1057.In the Orkneyinga Saga, ed. 1873, Jarl Thorfinn is said to have died in 1064, but Skene (Celtic Scotland, volume 1, pg 413) suggests 1057 and is regarded as more likely. As such they were held to the Norwegian Crown and part of the Peerage of that country although certainly disputed lands. Prior to this date (c. 600) they were held to a variety of Pictish tribes but no record has prevailed. There was never any, at least recorded, Kingdom of Ross. During the period of Norwegian rule there is mention of various members of what was likely an indigenous ruling class. There is evidence of:Celtic Scotland : a history of ancient Alban; William Forbes Skene, Volume 1, [https://archive.org/stream/celticscotlandhi01skenuoft#page/374/mode/2up page 375] : A '''Finlay or Findlaec, or Finleik''', named as "Earl of the Scots", who is noticed when he challenged the Norwegian Earl Sigurd the Stout (Hlodverson) to a battle which resulted in the battle of Skida mire at Skitten in Caithness. This likely c. 985 as Sigurd was Earl between 980 to 1014 and this fought shortly after he came to power. Sigurd was Jarl of Orkney and his victory over this "Earl of the Scots" secured him as ruler over Ross, Moray, Sutherland, and part of Caithness, adding these to the other part of Caithness and Orkney. Finlay, in the Annals of Tighernac, is noticed as "Findlaec MacRuaidhri, Mormaer Moreb". He may also have been Ri (king) Alba. Finlay is known to have submitted to Sigurd and may have done homage to him for Moray, thus giving rise to the notice in the Irish Chronicles. Sigurd was killed at the [[:Space: Battle of Clontarf|battle of Clontarf]] in 1014. Finlay was killed by his nephews, the sons of his brother Maelbrighde, in 1020. Finlay is also known as the father to Macbeth. It is thought that Finlay's wife was Donada, second daughter of Malcolm II., King of Scots. : '''Maelbrighde''', also known as "MacRuaidhri" may have been joint ruler of Moray with his brother, and, according to Sir James Balfour Paul,The Scots Peerage; Sir James Balfour Paul, Volume 6, [https://archive.org/stream/scotspeeragefoun06pauluoft#page/280/mode/2up page 281] probably the elder of the two (as he fought the Norwegians first), although very little is recorded of him. In the local clans, inheritance was not by primogeniture but likely agnatic or tanistic (if Pict, which is likely, then agnatic, if Irish, then tanistic). He is noticed, as Earl Magbiod or Magbiadr,Celtic Scotland : a history of ancient Alban; William Forbes Skene, Volume 1, [https://archive.org/stream/celticscotlandhi01skenuoft#page/374/mode/2up page 374] when contending with Jarl Liot of Caithness at Skidamyre, likely c. 975, and being defeated, but Liot, though victorious, died of his wounds. {{Image|file=Graphics_for_Peerage_of_Scotland.png |align=r |size=m }} As a result of these victories against the Kingdom of Alba (later Scotland), Norway held title to all lands north of the Spey (inverness) and "Dali" thought to be Dalriada (Kingdom of Dál Riata on the west coast). Dalriada was also held by a Norwegian Jarl and the kings of Norway appear to have claimed tribute from the islands, having defeated the Irish clans that had been based there. This the time of the unification of Norway and Denmark, under Cnut and these parts were held as part of his North Sea Empire (although incorrectly not noted on wikipedia). The map on the right shows the Kingdom of Alba in c. 1000 AD with Alba in the blue. All the lands south of the kingdom of Northumbria, which extended into England, were held to Cnut. Alba was ruled, by election, by Mormaers with the strongest being those of Moray. The division and continual fighting between Norway and Denmark led to the two houses that disputed the Isles for the next 200 odd years; Norwegians holding the northern Isles and Danes holding the southern and their cities in Ireland. It is at this time, c. 1000, that there appears a Norwegian, [[:Category: Kingdom of the Isles|King of the Isles (and later of Mann)]]. In about 900 two Scottish "Earls", stated as Hundi and Melsnati, entered the Norwegian territory of "Ross" and killed a Havard of Threswick, believed to have been Sigurd's brother-in-law and likely its Norwegian governor.Celtic Scotland : a history of ancient Alban; William Forbes Skene, Volume 1, [https://archive.org/stream/celticscotlandhi01skenuoft#page/378/mode/2up page 378] The "Earls" were defeated by Sigurd at a battle at Duncansness but another Scot, named "Earl Melkolf" advanced from a place called Duncansby (which was presumably close by) and forced Sigurd from the field. It is clear from the narrative that local "Mormaers" hold power in Ross although it is not clear to whom they owed allegiance (if anyone). Most historians believe that while Kenneth mac Alpin contested the lands of Ross and those of Sutherland and Caithness, they were not yet in his power although neither were they firmly in the grip of Norway. ===The Origin of the Earldom of Ross=== {{Image|file=Graphics_for_Peerage_of_Scotland-1.png |align=r |size=m }} The power of the Vikings Earls was destroyed at the Battle of Cluantarbh, near Dublin, on Good Friday, 1014. The Vikings were defeated by the combined forces of Ireland, Alba and Cumbria (Wales). The forces of Alba, now called Scots, were led by a Domnall, the Mormaer of Mar, who was killed at the battle. However the Vikings forces were near destroyed and Sigurd killed; with his death the Norwegian hold over Ross disintegrated. Sigurd had married, as his second wife, a daughter to Malcolm, King of Scots and the result was a son Thorfinn, who is know to have been five at the time of the battle. Malcolm granted Caithness and Sutherland on Thorfinn. Skene provides that the province of Moray and Ross, was provided to the same Finleikr who ruled prior, and who appears in Tighernac as Findlaec mac Ruaidhri, Mormaer Moreb, and in the Ulster Annals as "Ri Alban", suggesting there was a distinction at this point between the King of Scotland and the King of Alba.Celtic Scotland : a history of ancient Alban; William Forbes Skene, Volume 1, [https://archive.org/stream/celticscotlandhi01skenuoft#page/388/mode/2up page 389] In 1031, when Cnut went to Rome the actual kingdom of Alban, now called Scotia, was described as extending only from the Firth of Forth to the river Spey, and the provinces beyond them, though viewed by the kings of the Scots as dependencies upon their kingdom, was actually regarded as Norse, all "Albania, which is now called Scotia, and Moravia". Moravia, had been extended and was now the province of, what we would recognise today as, Moray and Ross. The year c. 1030. Roughly depicted on the map at right. Skene then providesCeltic Scotland : a history of ancient Alban; William Forbes Skene, Volume 1, [https://archive.org/stream/celticscotlandhi01skenuoft#page/404/mode/2up page 404] that in the Scottish and Vikings wars of 1040, Earl Thorfinn, son to Sigurd, and now Earl of Orkney, Caithness and Sutherland combined forces with Macbeth to defeat the Scottish force under Duncan. Duncan killed, Scotland was again divided with Thorfinn reclaiming all the north, including Buchan and the east coast to the Tay, and Macbeth claiming southern Scotland, Cumbria and Lothians remaining faithful to the children of Duncan. There is some conjecture surrounding the first appearance of an Earl of Ross. Sir James Balfour PaulThe Scots Peerage; Sir James Balfour Paul, Volume 7, [https://archive.org/stream/scotspeeragefoun07pauluoft#page/230/mode/2up page 230] suggests there is good reason to believe that the first to hold the title was Malcolm MacEth, who also appears before 1160 as a witness to one of King Malcolm's charters. He had, for former insurrection against David I., been imprisoned in Roxburgh Castle, but in 1154 Somerled, Lord of Argyll, with his nephews, Malcolm's sons, invaded Scotland, and caused a civil war, which lasted until the King released Malcolm in 1157 and, according to an English chronicler (William of Newburgh), 'gave him a certain province.' Skene, in his Celtic Scotland, suggests this "province" was Ross, then part of the territory of Moray. Wyntoun records him as "Gillandres" and this and "Ghilleanris" was the patronymic used in Wyntoun's time. He, Malcolm, married a sister of Somerled, Lord of Argyll, and had children. He died 23 Oct 1168. However in 1161, [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Floris_III,_Count_of_Holland Floris] III., Count of Holland, was created Earl of Ross on his marriage to Ada, William I. (the Lion) sister. From this marriage the county of Holland adopted the rampant lion in the coat of arms and the name of William. It is doubtful if he ever possessed more than the title, as his descendant complained in 1291 that the earldom was detained from him without reason, and he had never been forfeited. After this the earldom remained in the hands of the Crown until Alexander II. bestowed it upon Ferquhard Macintagart, son of the lay parson of the territory of the monastery of Saint Máelrubai at Applecross, Ross. ===1st Earl of Ross - [[MacTaggart-2|Ferquhard Macintagart]]=== The hereditary interest as lay abbot of the territory of the monastery of Saint Máelrubai at Applecross had passed into the hands of a family of lay priests called Sagarts or Priests of Applecross. The holdings of the monastery were significant and the lay abbot thus one of the most powerful of the Highland chiefs. When Alexander II. was forced, in 1215, to suppress an insurrection in Moray and Ross, Ferquhard, siding with him, seized the insurgent leaders, beheaded them, and presented their heads to the King, 15 June 1215, and was knighted by him. He was, at a later date, created Earl of Ross, appearing as such in a writ dated probably after June 1226. He founded the Abbey of Ferne from which the Ferne Calendar is found. From him are derived the House of Ross and his descendent will control the Earldom until it passes to the Leslie family in the [[Space:Records_of_Parliament|Charter of 1370]].

[[Category: Scotland Project Managed FSPs]] [[Category:Earls of Selkirk]] '''Earl of Selkirk''' Created on 4 August 1646 for Lord William Douglas, who upon becoming Duke of Hamilton surrendered his previous titles to the Crown, and they were reconferred on his son Charles Hamilton. This novodamus was with a unique remainder, alluded to in the Scottish country dance [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hamilton_House_%28dance%29 Hamilton House], whereby: : the first Earl's eldest son came after his brothers in succession (since he inherited the Dukedom), and if the heir to the title was to receive the Dukedom of Hamilton beforehand, or at the same time, the Earldom would pass to ''his'' younger brothers (then their sons as normal), with the cycle repeating if the titles ever did meet again (or the direct line of the Earldom ran out). This is demonstrated when the 2nd Earl (Charles) passed the title to his younger brother (John), because when he died without issue, his older brother (James) was still alive. If there were no brothers left, James would have recieved the title and passed it to his own second son upon his death (restarting the cycle), whereas if James had died before Charles, even if there were other brothers it would have gone to that same son directly. add a story here, find one here [[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Category:Earldoms_in_the_Peerage_of_Scotland 1]] or here [[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Category:Extinct_earldoms_in_the_Peerage_of_Scotland 2]] ---- * [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Earl_of_Selkirk Wikipedia]

[[Category: Scotland Project Managed FSPs]] [[Category:Earls of Strathearn]] '''Earl of Strathearn''' The Mormaer of Strathearn or Earl of Strathearn was the provincial ruler of Strathearn in medieval Scotland. Of unknown origin, the mormaers are attested for the first time in a document perhaps dating to 1115. The first known mormaer, Maol Íosa I is mentioned by Ailred of Rievaulx as leading native Scots in the company of King David I at the Battle of the Standard, 1138. The last ruler of the Strathearn line was Maol Íosa V, also Earl of Orkney, who chose the wrong side in the Balliol-Bruce conflict which followed the death of King Robert I of Scotland. In 1344 possession was given to Maurice de Moravia, a royal favourite who had a vague claim to the lordship. Strathearn has since been used as a peerage title for James Stewart, an illegitimate son of King James V of Scotland, who was created Lord Abernethy and Strathearn and Earl of Moray in 1562. In 1631, William Graham, 7th Earl of Menteith was confirmed in this dignity as heir of line of Euphemia Stewart, Countess of Strathearn (d. 1415), but was forced to settle for the less prestigious title of the Earl of Airth in 1633. It has also been granted to members of the Royal Family in the titles of Duke of Cumberland and Strathearn (created 1766, extinct 1790), Duke of Kent and Strathearn (created 1799, extinct 1820) and Duke of Connaught and Strathearn (created 1874, extinct 1943). On 29 April 2011, the title was recreated when Queen Elizabeth II conferred the title on Prince William of Wales.

[[Category: Scotland Project Managed FSPs]] [[Category:Earls of Sutherland]] '''Earl of Sutherland''' adapted from en.wikipedia.org Creation date - 1230 by Alexander II of Scotland Peerage - Peerage of Scotland First holder - William de Moravia Present holder - Elizabeth Sutherland, 24th Countess Heir apparent - Alistair Charles St Clair Sutherland Subsidiary titles - Lord Strathnaver Earl of Sutherland is a title in the Peerage of Scotland. It was created circa 1230 for William de Moravia. The Earl of Sutherland is also the Chief of Clan Sutherland. The original line of earls of Sutherland had the surname "de Moravia" although they sometimes used the surname "Sutherland", taken from their hereditary title. The name de Moravia meant "of Moray" or "of Murray". The de Moravias who were Earls of Sutherland and chiefs of Clan Sutherland shared their paternal ancestry with the chiefs of Clan Murray who were Earls and later Dukes of Atholl. However the de Moravias of Sutherland were the senior line of the family. Elizabeth de Moravia, 10th Countess of Sutherland, married Adam Gordon, a younger son of George Gordon, 2nd Earl of Huntly, chief of Clan Gordon. Their first son is Alexander Gordon, Master of Sutherland, whose descendants were several of the next Earls of Sutherland, who all used the surname Gordon. The title was again held by a long string of men, until the death of William Gordon, 18th Earl, without sons, when the title passed to his daughter Elizabeth. Elizabeth, 19th Countess of Sutherland then married George Granville Leveson-Gower in 1785; he inherited the title of Marquess of Stafford from his father in 1803. The Marquess held vast lands and wealth, having inherited from his father, the first Marquess of Stafford, from his maternal uncle, the second Duke of Bridgewater, and also holding much property associated with the Earldom of Sutherland, which belonged to his wife. He was made Duke of Sutherland in 1833. The Duke's son, also named George, inherited the Earldom of Sutherland from his mother and the Dukedom of Sutherland from his father. The two titles continued united until the death of the fifth Duke in 1963. The Earldom passed to his niece Elizabeth, while the Dukedom had to pass to a male heir. The subsidiary title associated with the Earldom is Lord Strathnaver (created 1230), which is used as a courtesy title by the Earl's or Countess's eldest son and heir. The family seat is Dunrobin Castle, near Golspie in the traditional county of Sutherland in Scotland. '''Ancestors of the Earls of Sutherland''' Different sources give different accounts of the ancestors of the Earls of Sutherland. The generally accepted ancestry is that William de Moravia (William Sutherland), 1st Earl of Sutherland in the peerage of Scotland (d. 1284) was the son of Hugh de Moravia, who in turn was a grandson of Freskin, a Flemish knight. However 17th century historian Sir Robert Gordon, who was a younger son of Alexander Gordon, 12th Earl of Sutherland states that William de Moravia (William Sutherland), 1st Earl of Sutherland (d. 1284) was the son of Hugh, Earl of Sutherland who was nicknamed Freskin, who was in turn son of Robert Sutherland (Earl of Sutherland and founder of Dunrobin Castle), who was son of Walter Southerland (Earl of Sutherland), who was son of Alane Southerland, Thane of Sutherland. Although the original line of Earls had the surname "de Moravia", historian Sir Robert Gordon, who was a younger son of Alexander Gordon, 12th Earl of Sutherland, states in his book "[[Space:The Earldom of Suitherland|A Genealogical History of The Earldom of Sutherland]]" that the original line in fact used the surname "Sutherland".

[[Category: Scotland Project Managed FSPs]] [[Category:Earls of Wigtown]] '''Earl of Wigtown''' The title of Earl of Wigtown (or Wigton or Wigtoun) was created twice in the Peerage of Scotland. The first creation was in 1341 for Malcolm Fleming, and was surrendered in 1372, when the second Earl sold the Earldom and territory to Archibald the Grim, Lord of Galloway. The transfer was confirmed by Robert III later in the same year. The Douglas family, Earls of Douglas, held the Earldom of Wigtown for the next hundred years, until the attainder of the 9th Earl of Douglas in 1455. The second creation was in 1606 for John Fleming, and survived until the death of the 7th earl in 1747, when it became dormant (or extinct).

This line of descent follows that proposed by James Gray in ''Sutherland and Caithness in saga-time''. Alternative theories about relationships lack source documents but are listed below for information. ==Pedigree== *'''Gillebride (Gilbert),''' Earl of Angus, died 1187 (Gray, pg. 102) First to hold the title Earl of Angus (Balfour, Vol I, pg. 160) '''As Earls of Angus''' **'''Adam''', son and heir (Balfour, Vol I, pg. 161) (Gray, pg 102) held the title by 1187.

(Burke - Royal Families - Vol 2, pg. xli) See Scots Peerage entry: [https://archive.org/details/scotspeeragefoun01pauluoft/page/12/mode/2up Vol I, pg. 12] '''As younger sons, without title''' **'''Gilbert''' (Balfour, Vol 1, pg. 161) (Gray, pg. 103), Progenitor of the Ogilvie family. **'''William''' (Balfour, Vol 1, pg. 162) (Gray, pg. 103) **'''Angus''' (Balfour, Vol 1, pg. 162) (Gray, pg. 103) ***'''Adam''' (Balfour, Vol I, pg. 162) ***'''Gillebride''' (Gilbert) (Gray, pg. 103) ==Cokayne's Theory, Vol II, pg. 109, Complete Peerage== Magnus, Jarl of Orkney and Earl of Caithness was son of Gillebride, Earl of Angus. He proposes his mother, the second wife of Gillebride, was a sister of Harald Ungi, Earl of Caithness (d. 1198). Magnus would have inherited the earldom as an infant. He lists Malcolm, as next Jarl of Orkney and Earl of Caithness, as son of the above stated Magnus. He then lists John as son and heir of the abovementioned Malcolm. In the footnote (c) Vol II, pg. 109, Cokayne states the succession between Earl Magnus who succeeded in 1232 and Earl Magnus who died about 100 years later, is obscure and somewhat uncertain and omitted in Skene's valuable article. There are no primary or secondary sources cited for the lineage he proposes. ==Orkneyinga Saga - The Earldom in the Angus Line, 1231-1312== Joseph Anderson gives Gillebride, Earl of Angus, as Magnus's father. Magnus was granted the earldom of North Caithness in 1323, by Alexander II of Scotland. He was then confirmed in the earldom of Orkney by the King of Norway. He states the Iceland Annals notice Earl Magnus's death in 1239. ==Conclusion== Given that Gillebride, Earl of Angus was most likely born in the 1130s or earlier, it seems illogical that he would have had a son who was alive in 1227. For that reason, I've chosen to go with the theory that Magnus was the son of Gilchrist and grandson of Gillebride. ==Sources==

We are here to help! The dedicated members listed below are happy to volunteer their time to assist you. ==Project Helpers== *[[Crawford-15512| Amy Gilpin]] - I'm available to help new and established members find answers to their questions about the Scotland Project, and WikiTree as a whole. *[[Sutherland-Fisher-1| Mark Sutherland-Fisher]] - Like Amy I am happy to assist both new and established members with questions they may have on Scottish profiles. In particular for anyone with a question about Scottish Clans, the Scottish Aristocracy and Gentry or "protocol" on Wikitree profiles, I will do my best to help. *[[Madison-125| Bobbie Hall]] - I love writing bios, with sources as well integrated as possible (inline citations). My research has been into the "common man," the miners, farmers, seamen and small merchants. I love to ferret out the small bits of information that give colour to the lives of these people. I'm more than happy to help with ideas on how to make your research subjects shine. *[[Ruddock-364| Jackie Prentice]] -My thing is building Bio's to make profiles as full as possible. Also willing to help point people in the right direction for sources, and help with stumbling blocks. *[[Mason-10934|Sarah Mason]] - I am always happy to help. If I don't know the answer, I will track down someone who does. I love researching and I find puzzle solving very satisfying, which is why I enjoy Connecting. * [[McCallum-175|Doug McCallum]] - I'm an OCD researcher and willing to help where I can. My approach is to teach others how to find resources and to use them once they do. *[[Stevens-17832|Jen Hutton]] - I enjoy playing detective, working on 'cold case' files. If you need an assist with finding sources, making connections, or creating bios that make the subject feel 'real'....please message me, I'd be happy to help. I also have a pre-1500 badge, so if you have details (reliably sourced) you'd like to see added to an ancestor's profile....message me!

[[Category: Scotland Project Managed FSPs]] [[Category:Lords of Parliament in the Peerage of Scotland]] A Lord of Parliament was the lowest rank of nobility automatically entitled to attend sessions of the pre-Union Parliament of Scotland. Post-Union, it is a member of the lowest rank of the Peerage of Scotland, ranking below a viscount. A Lord of Parliament is said to hold a Lordship of Parliament. Scotland differs from the rest of the United Kingdom in that the lowest rank of its peerage is not the baron. In Scotland, the term "baron" refers to a feudal baron. Therefore, the Scottish equivalent to the English baron is the Lord of Parliament. Lords of Parliament are referred to as Lord X, while female holders of Lordships of Parliament are known as Lady X (e.g. Flora Fraser, 21st Lady Saltoun). The wife of a Lord of Parliament is also Lady X. Children of Lords of Parliament and female holders of Lordships of Parliament are styled The Honourable [Forename] [Surname], except that the heir apparent is styled The Master of [peerage title]. Where succession by females is allowed an heiress presumptive may be styled The Mistress of [peerage title]. After the death of the father or mother, the child may continue to use the style. The creation of Lordships of Parliament ceased when Scotland and England combined into Kingdom of Great Britain in 1707 and their parliaments were merged. From 1707 to 1963 they were represented in the British House of Lords by only representative peers. From 1963 to 1999 they were all entitled to sit. The House of Lords Act 1999 removed the entitlement of hereditary peers, including Lords of Parliament, automatically to sit in the House of Lords. However, a number of hereditary peers do still sit following election by fellow peers. In 1999 two Lords of Parliament were successfully elected: Lord Reay and the Lady Saltoun. Following Lord Reay's death on 10th May 2013 only Lady Saltoun remains. No provision was made for Lords of Parliament to be specially represented in the current Scottish Parliament, but the Scotland Act 1998 provides that a person is not disqualified from membership of the Parliament merely because he is a peer (whether of the United Kingdom, Great Britain, England or Scotland).

The barony first came ito the possession of the Sinclair family when William of Saint-Claire accompanied Saint Margaret of Scotland, daughter of Edward the Exile to Scotland in 1068. She married Malcolm III of Scotland. In return for his efforts, the king supposedly granted Sinclair the barony of Roslin "in free heritage". Roslin Castle was built beginning about 1390, under Henry I Sinclair, [[:Category: Earls of Orkney|Earls of Orkney]].

'''Maxwell Baronets, of Calderwood''', created 1627, for Sir James Maxwell (died c. 1670). The male line failed in 1885 and the title passed to the male line of Baron Farnham. The title is still retained by that line. '''Maxwell Baronets, of Monreith''', created in 1681, for William Maxwell of Monreith. The title is extant (in 2016). '''[[:Category: Baronet of Springkell|Maxwell Baronets, of Springkell]]''', created in 1683, for Patrick Maxwell. In 1803, as a result of a maternal inheritance, the holder changed his name to Heron-Maxwell. While the title is still extant (2016) the current holder has not successfully proven his succession to the baronetcy and is therefore not on the Official Roll of the Baronetage. The title appears on the list of [http://www.baronetage.org/wp-content/uploads/2011/01/Unclaimed-Baronetcies-31-Dec-15.pdf unclaimed Baronetcies].

In 1956, on the death of the current holder, Sir John Stirling-Maxwell, 10th Baronet, the baronetcy became dormant. His daughter, Dame Anne Maxwell Macdonald (1906–2011) was recognised by Lyon Court in 2005 as 11th holder of the baronetcy and therefore succeeded her father in 1956. The title is current (2016).

The parliament, like other such institutions, evolved during the Middle Ages from the king's council of bishops and earls. It is first identifiable as a parliament in 1235, during the reign of Alexander II. This category is intended for amalgamating Members of Parliament who served in the Scottish Parliaments between the recognised formation of Parliament, in c. 1235, and the Acts of the Union, in 1707. The Scottish and English Acts of Union took effect on 1 May 1707. On this date, the Scottish Parliament was incorporated into the English Parliament at Westminster, which was renamed the Parliament of Great Britain [https://en.wikisource.org/wiki/Act_of_Union_1707 Acts of Union, 1707] Profiles with service dated earlier than this may be attributed to this category if appropriate but Profiles with service dated after 1707 should be attributed to [[:Category: Members of Parliament, Great Britain|Members of Parliament, Great Britain]]. The members were collectively referred to as the Three Estates (Middle Scots: Thrie Estaitis), or "community of the realm" (tres communitates), composed of until 1690: * the first estate of prelates (bishops and abbots) * the second estate of the nobility (dukes, marquesses, earls, viscounts, parliamentary peers (after 1437) and lay tenants-in-chief) * the third estate of [[:Category: Shire Commissioners to the Parliament of Scotland|Burgh or Shire Commissioners]] (representatives chosen by the royal burghs and the shires). {{Image|file=Old-604-9.jpg |caption=The Riding of Parliament (the procession of members to and from the meeting place of Parliament) c. 1685, from Nicholas de Gueudeville's Atlas Historique, ou Nouvelle Introduction à l'Histoire à la Chronologie & à la Géographie Ancienne & Moderne (Amsterdam, 1720) }} '''Locations & Acts of the Scottish Parliament''' Prior to the completion of Parliament House in Edinburgh in 1639, there was no purpose-built chamber as at the Palace of Westminster in England and the Scottish parliament ''met in a variety of diverse, and sometimes unusual, locations''. {{Image|file=Old-604-8.jpg |caption=Parliament Hall, Edinburgh }} Surprisingly, in March 2016, no fewer than eighty-four acts of the pre-1707 Scottish Parliament were still in force.

[[Category: Scotland Project Managed FSPs]] [[Category:Mormaers of Scotland]] =Mormaers of Scotland= The title of Mormaer designates a regional or provincial ruler in the early Medieval Kingdom of the Scotland. They came into effect after the early Viking invasions and under the unification of the Pict "kingdoms" that occupied Scotland at the time, c. 850 AD, under Kenneth MacAlpin to create the "[[:Category: Scotland|Kingdom of Scotland]]". Although gradually replaced prior to David I, the title of Mormaer had been replaced by Earl in the [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Davidian_Revolution Davidian Revolution], c. 1150. During the intervening period they were not always part of Scotland, such as the Mormaer of Moray who, for much of the time was ruled by the Kingdom of Norway. The title was no longer used after c. 1200. =='''List of Mormaers'''== ===''' Mormaer of Angus'''=== :Category: [[:Category:Mormaers of Angus|Mormaers of Angus]] :Angus is one of the oldest attested Mormaerdoms, with the earliest attested Mormaer, Dubacan of Angus, known to have lived in the early 10th century, as recorded in the Chronicle of the Kings of Alba. Despite this, the Mormaers of Angus are among the most obscure of all. There is much conjecture regarding the title. :Angus was, according to the doubtful and legendary text de Situ Albanie, one of the seven original mormaerdoms of the Pictish kingdom of Alba, said to have been occupied by seven brothers, of whom Angus (Oengus) was the eldest.

The latter is the only significant source for the mormaerdom, and its existence makes Buchan one of Scotland's best documented provinces for native cultural institutions. After the death of Fergus, before 1214, Buchan became the first native mormaerdom to pass into the hands of a foreign family, the Comyns, though only through marriage. Alexander Comyn, Earl of Buchan inherited and continued his mother's title and line until it was conquered and forfeited during the Wars of Scottish Independence.

It is known only from one source, a source relating that Máel Petair, Mormaer of Mearns, killed Donnchad II. There is good reason to believe that this is not some mistake, and that Mearns was once a Mormaerdom. The early thirteenth century source, known to historians a de Situ Albanie, adds believability to this because it lists Mearns in a list of 13 Scottish regions which in 6½ pairs each formed one of the seven ancient Kingdoms of the Picts. Only two of the eleven other regions are not attested in sources as Mormaerdoms, those ones being Fothriff and Gowrie. It is probable that by the time Mormaers begin to be consistently attested, i.e. roughly between 1150 and 1250, Mearns was absorbed by the crown and not regranted. -http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mormaer_of_Mearns 1 ==='''Mormaer of Menteith'''=== :Category: [[:Category:Mormaer of Menteith|Mormaers of Menteith]] '''First line of mormaers/earls''' * Mordac, Earl of Menteith (Murdoch) (d. 1124-1153)[2] * Gille Críst, Earl of Menteith (Gilcrist) (d. 1189) * Muireadhach I, Earl of Menteith (d. 1213) * Muireadhach II, Earl of Menteith (d. 1234) * Isabella, Countess of Menteith ** m.

It did not have the same territory as the modern local government council area of Moray, which is a much smaller area, around Elgin. The medieval lordship was in fact centred on both the lower Spey valley and around Inverness and the northern parts of the Great Glen, and probably originally included Buchan and Mar, as well as Ross.

[[Category: Scotland Project Managed FSPs]] [[Category:Name Field Guidelines]] '''This is the Official Name Field Standards for the Scotland Project''' ==Lairds, Tacksmen and Clan Chiefs== '''Prefix:''' None '''First Name:''' First Name at Birth '''Preferred Name:''' This is the name they are known by or were known to use for themselves. '''Last Name At Birth:''' The LNAB will be the surname at birth. '''Current Last Name:''' The CLN will be the territorial designation with his or her number designated by a Roman numeral. This represents his/her place in the succession of Lairds, Tacksmen or Clan Chiefs. '''Suffix:''' None See Example 1 and 2, below. '''Example 1''' John Mackenzie 1st Laird of Gruinard ([[MacKenzie-4677|MacKenzie-4677]]) has first name “John”, LNAB “MacKenzie” and CLN “Mackenzie Ist of Gruinard”. Using the Roman Letter “I” for the number “1” which would otherwise create an error message and although the policy is to register “Mac” surnames with a capital letter, the Mackenzie family spells its name Mackenzie not MacKenzie . '''Example 2''' Robert Munro, 15th Baron of Foulis and 17th Chief of Clan Munro ([[Munro-210]]) has first name “Robert”, preferred name “Robert Mor” because that is how he was known, LNAB “Munro” and CLN “Munro XVIIth of Foulis” because it is place in the list of Chiefs which matters most. Later on his descendants secured a Baronetcy and for those chiefs, it is the layout for a Baronet which will apply. In recent generations the Baronetcy and Chief of the Clan have separated so once more it is the numerical place in the list of Chiefs which matters most. ==Baronets== '''Prefix:''' Sir, Rev, Capt., etc. '''First Name:''' First Name at Birth '''Preferred Name:''' This is the name they are known by or were known to use for themselves. '''Last Name At Birth:''' The LNAB will be the surname the individual had at birth. '''Current Last Name:''' The CLN will be the name of the Baronetcy. '''Suffix:''' The suffix box will be used to display the holder’s position See Example 3, below : '''Example 3''' Sir John Sinclair, 6th Baronet of Canisbay and 8th Laird of Mey ([[Sinclair-4252|Sinclair-4252]]) has the prefix “Sir”, first name “John”, LNAB “Sinclair”, CLN “Sinclair of Canisbay” and suffix “6th Bt”. The fact that he is also the 8th Laird of Mey is noted in his biography. ==Peers and other Nobles== '''Prefix:''' Sir, Rev, Capt., etc. '''First Name:''' First Name at Birth '''Preferred Name:''' This is the name they are known by or were known to use for themselves. '''Last Name At Birth:''' The LNAB will be the surname the individual had at birth. NOTE: Peers are known by and addressed using their most senior title not the family surname. '''Current Last Name:''' The CLN will be the LNAB and his/her most senior title written entirely as words. See Example 4, below: '''Example 4''' Captain James Sutherland, 5th Lord Duffus ([[Sutherland-1206|Sutherland-1206]]) has the prefix “Capt.”, first name “James”, LNAB “Sutherland” and CLN “Sutherland Fifth Lord Duffus”. ==Senior Clergy and Others== NOTE: As Scotland’s principal religion does not have elevated ranks within its clergy, there are few profiles this affects. However both the Roman Catholic and Scottish Episcopal churches have bishops, archbishops and cardinals. '''Prefix:''' Rev, Cardinal, Bishop, etc '''First Name:''' First Name at Birth '''Preferred Name:''' This is the name they are known by or were known to use for themselves. '''Last Name At Birth:''' The LNAB will be the surname the individual had at birth. '''Current Last Name:''' The CLN will be the LNAB and his/her most senior title written entirely as words. '''Example 5''' David Bethune ([[Bethune-14|Bethune-14]]) rose to become Archbishop of St. Andrews and a Cardinal. He was known as David Beaton. He has the prefix “Cardinal” first name “David”, LNAB “Bethune” and CLN “Beaton Archbishop of St Andrews”. ==Married women, especially if from a noble family== This has long been a bone of contention and for the purposes of nobility, except where it is shown a married woman chose to be known by her husband’s family surname, she will keep her own surname because that generally was what was done. However married women in the nobility tended to be known by their husband’s title. If a Peer, she was simply the female version of his rank of peer e.g. Earl’s wife was a Countess. If her husband was a Baronet, she would generally be styled “Lady” followed by her husband’s title not family name. If she was a Baronetess in her own right, she would not be styled “Lady” but more often “Dame” or “Madam” followed by her title. If her husband was a Scot’s Baron or even a Tacksman, she would generally be known as “Lady” followed by the name of his estate. '''Prefix:''' Lady '''First Name:''' First Name at Birth '''Preferred Name:''' This is the name they are known by or were known to use for themselves. '''Last Name At Birth:''' The LNAB is the surname she was born with. '''Current Last Name:''' The CLN includes both her LNAB and her husband's title. '''Suffix:''' If applicable, represents her position. '''Examples 6''' Margaret Sutherland of Kinminitie ([[Sutherland-3463|Sutherland-3463]]) was the daughter of James Sutherland, 1st Laird of Kinminitie. She went on to marry James Irvine, 3rd Laird of Artamford. After her marriage, as she also came from a noble family she was not referred to as “Margaret Irvine”. She continued to be known as Margaret Sutherland. However she was addressed as “Lady Artamford” as was typical of the time. She took her husband’s Baronial title. In a family feud with her nephew, in the Court of Session papers she is referred to as “Margaret Sutherland, Lady Artamford “ or “Margaret, Lady Artamford”. So for her profile she has first and preferred name “Margaret”, LNAB “Sutherland”, CLN “Sutherland Lady Artamford”. If you do a plain search for “Margaret Sutherland” and then click earliest date you find her quite easily. ==Document History== *The finalized draft received official inclusion on the Name Field Help Page on 17 Nov 2020.

[[Category:Scotland Project]] [[Category: Scotland Project Managed FSPs]] [[Project:Scotland|Scotland Project]] > [[Space:Scotland - Profile Improvements Team|Profile Improvements Team]] > '''Profile Standards''' ==Purpose== The Scotland Project aims to develop profiles of all people born in Scotland to the highest possible standard with well sourced biographies using inline references, appropriate categories and images, research notes if applicable and connection to the global tree. Whilst this may seem ambitious the establishment of standards, guidelines and ongoing support can make our aspirations a reality. This page is intended as a guide for Scotland Project members developing our PPP and managed profiles, and for any project member working on a profile on behalf of the Scotland Project. ==Scotland Project Managed Profiles== Profiles are managed by the Scotland Project as they are either project protected due to contentious issues or historically significant. These profiles are developed by project members who have expressed an interest in working on a Scotland managed profile. Many profiles taken on by the Scotland Project have significant contentious issues, inadequate sourcing, brief or non-existing biographies and formatting problems. Profiles are allocated on the basis of skills needed to improve the profile and the interests of the project member with respect to location, families and era. PPP profiles often require specific and high level research skills. If a project member is invited to work on a profile for the Scotland Project, there is no obligation to do so and it is fine to say no. There will always be another profile that may suit you. Whilst there is no restriction on anyone working on a profile, including PPPs, it is hoped that Scotland project members will respect the immense amount of work that researching a profile entails and contact the project or the person working on the profile should they wish to make significant changes to an Scotland managed profile. See [[Space:Scotland - Project Protected Profiles and Managed Profiles |Scotland - Project Protected Profiles and Managed Profiles]] for more detailed information of the criteria for PPP and Managed Profiles. Some examples of profiles that could be used as a guide are at the end of this page. ==Standards== The Scotland Project follows Wikitree's Styles and Standards. *When creating a profile ensure that the names you enter are correct, especially with respect to the Last Name at Birth (LNAB), and other names and titles. The name field guidelines provide detailed information for each name field. *Scottish profiles, including Nobility follow the naming conventions developed by the Scotland Project outlined here: [[Space:Scotland_-_Name_Field_Guidelines| Scotland Project - Name Field Guidelines]] *Dates should be as precise as possible. If you are unable to confirm an exact date an estimate is acceptable with an explanation in the biography. *Blocks of text should not be copied to a profile from any websites. See the help pages for copying text and copying from Wikipedia. *Images should be relevant to the profile and must not infringe copyright. Wikimedia Commons is one of many places where you can find images to use on the profile. Each image has information on if and how you can use the image and download options. Always choose the highest resolution available, Wikitree will re-size the image to a thumbnail, profile photo or background. Additionally: *Do not use the Middle name field or Other nickname field for descriptive placeholders (such as an occupation or location) unless that person would have been well known by such a description and it is documented in a source. *Only use Senior and Junior if the people themselves used that designation (rare in Scottish families) and it is documented in a source. Additional House Style standards for the Scotland Project Managed Profile team: *Font: Wikitree standard default font. *Type colour: black. *Spelling: Scottish OED *Punctuation: avoid the use of exclamation marks and do not use emojis. The use of the Oxford Comma is acceptable. ==Help== We put this here as a reassurance. Help is available at any stage from: #the PPP/Managed Profile Coordinator, #the Wikitree Scotland Google group, #by asking a question on G2G #or by consulting the Wikitree help pages. #See also the Scotland Project page for details of county teams, profile improvers and our other teams. ==Developing the Profile== ===The Basic Profile=== :The first step when creating or developing an existing profile is to ensure that all vital information is correct and sourced. Whenever possible primary sources should be used to establish birth, death and marriage information. ===Biography=== :The biography should be relevant to the profile, well organised, use inline sourcing to clearly identify the facts presented, and strive to give a picture of the life of the person. :The biography should be written in chronological order unless this would upset the description of a certain passage of events in that person's life. :Use the past tense (He died in 1940) rather than present (He dies in 1940) :Avoid repetition for the same sorts of events. Be creative with your vocabulary. :Add interest to the narrative by adding first hand contemporary descriptions of actions or attributes (with sources) But Do Not speculate or embellish. :Use subheadings as waymarkers for important events. :If a lengthy passage of descriptive text is required (for example, a Will) use a linked free space page for that text with a brief summary in the biography. :If biography writing is not your strength please do not be put off working on an Scotland managed profile. Collaboration is the key and even a skeleton biography is a good starting point for another project member to step in and develop the biography further. : Tables should rarely be used in the biography and never in a source citation. They are also difficult for less experienced or technically advanced members to edit. ===Research Notes=== :A research note section can explain issues encountered In the research process. This could include conflicting information, to document where information was not found or any other information that could assist further research. ===Images=== :Images must be relevant to the person being profiled. A head and neck portrait of that person is preferred as the primary image. If the image in question is a source record, please consider adding a link if the source image is available online. Use of any image must comply with the applicable copyright law and/or licensing agreement. :Using images as wallpaper or background on a profile are a matter of taste. One profile manager may be for it; another one against it. Background can also be very difficult for members with vision challenges. So please be thoughtful about adding backgrounds. On Project managed profiles, when using background images, they should be seamless, appropriate to the subject of the profile, and all copyrights honoured. Images of Coats of Arms, Clan Crests, shields and like symbols should be used only as primary photos and images on the appropriate profile, and not as background. ===Sources=== :A source is not necessarily evidence. Not all sources are equal with respect to accuracy, nor should a source be automatically assumed to be evidence. See this [https://www.evidenceexplained.com/content/quicklesson-2-sources-vs-information-vs-evidence-vs-proof Evidence Explained] lesson for a discussion of sources, information, evidence and proof and [https://www.familysearch.org/wiki/en/Evaluate_the_Evidence Evaluate the Evidence] from Familysearch for more detailed information on evaluating sources. ===Types of Sources=== *'''Primary''' – a source created at or near the time of the event. Some examples include birth, death or marriage certificates or entries in county/shire registers or civil records, probated wills, land transaction documents, census records, immigration records, educational registers etc. Original documents are not necessarily 'pure' primary sources. For example with a death certificate some elements of the document may be considered primary sources such as the date and place of death, but information supplied by an informant is a secondary source based on memory or information supplied by other parties. *'''Secondary''' – these sources are generally created from primary sources but may also include discussions about/or refer to other secondary sources. Examples include books, journal articles, newspapers. *'''Tertiary''' – sources which are a summary or aggregation of information usually from secondary and sometimes primary sources. Typical examples include dictionaries, encyclopedias, websites. :'''What should not be considered (or used as) a source?''' *Find a Grave entries that have no headstone, memorial photo or a transcription. *Unsourced user created trees, *Genealogy websites, *Blogs etc. :These are essentially hearsay and have no basis in truth, no credibility and no value as a source. ===Sources - Style Guide=== The Scotland Project follows the [https://www.wikitree.com/wiki/Help:Sources_Style_Guide WikiTree Sources Style Guide]. Our membership is a diverse group whose technical skills range from basic to highly experienced, and we want to encourage participation and collaboration among all members. When in doubt, we defer to the thoughts expressed in [https://www.wikitree.com/wiki/Help:HTML_and_Inline_CSS#Advanced_coding_adds_complexity Advanced Coding adds to Complexity]. To that end: * We use [https://www.evidenceexplained.com Evidence Explained] formatting, based on the [https://www.chicagomanualofstyle.org/home.html Chicago Manual of Style]. ** A simple link to a source is not considered a complete source citation. ** [https://guides.lib.strath.ac.uk/ld.php?content_id=33346935 The University of Strathclyde citation style] is acceptable as an alternative citation format. * We encourage inline citations which allow for a specific source for each statement in the text, but bulleted lists are also acceptable. ** All citations must be complete citations. ** Named references should be used when repeating a citation * We use only formats that are approved in the [https://www.wikitree.com/wiki/Help:Recommended_Tags Recommended Tags] and explicitly disallow those that are not. For example: ... - This is not approved for styling purposes or with sources. * We discourage the use of tables as these also are difficult for less experienced or technically advanced members to edit. === DNA === DNA confirmations can be quite confusing. All such confirmations should be compliant with Wikitree DNA confirmation guidelines at [https://www.wikitree.com/wiki/Help:Confirmed_with_DNA Help:Confirmed with DNA]. More specific to this Project: * In most cases only the source citation format placed at the end of the Sources section should be used * If necessary, a small amount of explanatory text in a === DNA === sub-section may be added. * If the DNA evidence needs a more complex explanation, a Free Space Page should be created and a link provided in the DNA sub-section. * Keep the DNA discussion directly in the profile to a minimum in order to not discourage those who are unfamiliar with it. More detailed DNA studies should follow the guidelines at [https://www.wikitree.com/wiki/Space:DNA_Studies_in_the_Scotland_Project DNA Studies in the Scotland Project]

''History of Scotland''
'''Scotland''' (Scottish Gaelic: ''Alba'') is now a country that is part of the United Kingdom. Occupying the northern third of the island of Great Britain, it shares a border with England to the south and is bounded by the North Sea to the east, the Atlantic Ocean to the north and west, and the North Channel and Irish Sea to the southwest. In addition to the mainland, Scotland is made up of more than 790 islands including the Northern Isles and the Hebrides. It wasn't always like that. This category has selected c. 850 as its starting point. As wikitree is becoming more complex this division is thought appropriate to separate the nation of Scotland from its ancestors. The time prior to this, until the 1st Century will be managed under [[:Category: Ancient Scotland|Ancient Scotland]]. {{Image|fileGraphics_for_Peerage_of_Scotland.png |alignr |sizem |captionScotland c. 1000 but before the fall of Nothumbria }} ''' History of Scotland ''' In 850 AD the land we know as Scotland today was a lot smaller than today. Our journey starts with Kenneth MacAlpin (Cináed mac Ailpín), generally regarded as the first king of a united Scotland and known today in most modern regnal lists as Kenneth I.. It is from him that the genealogical lineage becomes clearly defined and reliable source material is available. He was king of the Picts and, according to our national myth, the first king of Scots. Prior to him lineage is full of conjecture but after him history and genealogy becomes more certain. ''' Historical Focal points ''' ''' 800-1000 ''' : '''800 - 1000 AD''' is the Vikings period; Kenneth rose to power in the Kingdom of Fortriu (roughly where Moray is today) after the initial Viking wars when " king Uen son of Óengus of Fortriu, his brother Bran, Áed mac Boanta "and others almost innumerable" " where killed in battle in 839. The resulting power vacuum, created by so many of the Royal line being killed if the Pictish Chronicle king-lists have any validity, seems to have resulted in at least four would-be kings warring for supreme power. Out of this rose Kenneth I.. [[MacAlpin-12|Kenneth MacAlpin]] is regarded, by most historians, as the first king of a united Scotland. His descendants, known to modern historians as the [[:Category: House of Alpin|House of Alpin]], fought amongst each other during frequent disputed successions. The last Alpin king, Malcolm II, died without issue in the early 11th century and the kingdom passed through his daughter's son, Duncan I, who started a new line of kings known to modern historians as the House of Dunkeld or Canmore. ''' 1000-1150 ''' : '''1000 - 1150''' are the wars of Establishment; Scotland, as a fledgling nation, fights for its survival against the vast Viking empire, that had reached its peak with Cnut c. 1000 AD, finding success at the '''Battle of Cluantarbh''' (Battle of Clontarf), near modern day Dublin, where Scotland, lead by the [[:Category: Mormaers of Mar|Earl of Mar]], and the other Celtic nations, under Brian Boru, found victory and relief from the Vikings. This period saw the end of the individual kingdoms and the rise of the [[:Category: Mormaers of Scotland|Mormaers]]. The period ends with the introduction of feudalism by David I and the [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Davidian_Revolution Davidian Revolution]. It is during this period that the lands belonging to the [[:Category: Kingdom of Strathclyde|Kingdom of Strathclyde]], [[:Category: Lord of Galloway|Lords of Galloway]] and [[:Category: Kingdom of Alba|Alba]] are absorbed, either by contest or fealty into the Kingdom of Scotland. David, himself, held, as his hereditary lands, the lands of the Lothians, then part of Northumbria. ''' 1150-1400 ''' : '''1150 - c. 1400''' is the feudal period; this period, defines the boundaries of modern Scotland and moves from a monarchic style to the rule of law enforced by a Parliament. It saw the introduction of new people, Normans, Flemish and other European nobility, into Scotland and the introduction of a new language. It saw the introduction of hereditary title, formalised the [[:Category: Scotland, Nobility|Nobility of Scotland]] and saw the establishment of the [[:Category: Peerage of Scotland|Peerage]]. It saw the rise and organisation of the sherrifdoms, later [[:Category: Scottish Counties|shires]], of the [[:Category: Scotland, Religious Congregations|church]], the parishes, the borough and towns. The last Dunkeld king, Alexander III, died in 1286 leaving only a single infant granddaughter as heir; four years later, Margaret, Maid of Norway herself died in a tragic shipwreck en route to Scotland. England, under Edward I, would take advantage of the questioned succession in Scotland to launch a series of conquests into Scotland. The resulting Wars of Scottish Independence were fought in the late 13th and early 14th centuries as Scotland passed back and forth between the House of Balliol and the House of Bruce. ''' 1400-1708 ''' : '''c. 1400 - 1708'''; is the period when Scotland stood as an individual nation, ruled by its own King and Parliament. Scotland's ultimate victory in the Wars of Independence under David II (Bruce) confirmed Scotland as a fully independent and sovereign kingdom. When David II died without issue, his nephew Robert II established the House of Stewart (Stuart), which would rule Scotland uncontested for the next three centuries. James VI, king of Scotland, would also inherit the throne of England, as James I, in 1567, and the Stuart kings and queens would rule both independent kingdoms. During this period Scotland had its own [[:Category: Scots Army|standing Army]] and [[:Category: Royal Scots Navy|standing Navy]]. : '''c. 1600 - The Ulster Migration'''; This period is generally regarded as the start of the Scots, generally protestant, [[:Category: Ulster Scots|migration to Ulster]]. Many of these families will eventually find their way to the Americas. This changed at the Acts of the Union in 1707, the two kingdoms were joined into a new state, the Kingdom of Great Britain and Scotland's Army and Navy became part of the [[:Category: British Army|British Army]] and [[:Category: Royal Navy|Royal Navy]] respectively. Queen Anne was the last Stuart monarch, ruling until 1714. ''' 1708 to Present ''' : '''1708 until today'''; a time genealogists are most likely to be familiar with. Since 1714, the succession of the British monarchs of the houses of Hanover and Saxe-Coburg and Gotha (Windsor) has been due to their descent from James VI and I of the House of Stuart.

People often mix up "nobility" and "aristocracy". In the United Kingdom and specifically within Scotland we have the "titled nobility" and the "untitled nobility". The titled nobility generally coincides with what most people call the aristocracy. Historically Scotland and England tended to use different titles to reward/recognise individuals for some great service or identify status through birth/marriage. Across the United Kingdom there are 5 ranks within the Peerage. 1) "Duke" (very few of them were created in Scotland before Charles II's use of the title to elevate his many illegitimate sons) 2) "Marquis" (Scottish Marquess) rarely used in Scotland 3) "Earl" the most common elevated title often granted by the Scottish kings to their younger sons and the more powerful nobles, usually related to the Crown 4) "Viscount" like Marquis rarely used in Scotland and more common in the 19th and 20th centuries as a reward to distinguished military leaders and politicians 5) "Lord" the most common title i.e. Lord of Parliament the equivalent of an English Baron These titles were until 1963 almost always Hereditary titles but in Scotland they didn't simply pass from father to son or nearest male relative under the rules of Primogeniture, but could pass to a daughter and even in some cases to a son-in-law. The rules applying to succession for any title were set out in the original "Letters Patent" the charter from the Crown which originally granted the title to its first holder. Many of the older Hereditary titles have been created on more than one occasion and not always to the same family each time. In such cases it is appropriate in the biography of an individual to note that "X was the 4th Earl of Y in its Second Creation. Although not thought to have been created until after 1963, Life Peerages were occasionally granted and other than the fact the title could not pass to the normal heir-at-law, would be referred to and conferred the same rights as a Hereditary Peerage. However beyond the traditional aristocracy, in Scotland there were many others who would have been considered "Nobility". There are those who had the rank of knighthood conferred on them. Such title would only apply to the individual. However James VI of Scotland and I of England introduced the "Knights Baronet". These were hereditary knighthoods which would ordinarily pass from generation to generation in the same way a Peerage would do. In Scotland the most common category of Baronet was the Baronets of Nova Scotia, introduced to help pay for the establishment of Scottish settlements in Canada. A few years later James introduced the general rank of Knight Baronet across Great Britain to help pay for the Plantation of Ulster by Lowland Scots. Now we move on to the less well known ranks of Nobility. There were the 10,000 or so holders of Baronial titles, those with "of" after their names and whose wives would usually have the courtesy of "Lady [husband's property name]". These were the owners of estates and the condition for holding the title was ownership of a particular house or castle at the centre of a particular estate. The initial holder of each Baronial title would almost certainly have matriculated his (occasionally her) coat of arms, recognising the new status. In the days before the court system we recognise today, many of these Barons would have a limited right to dispense "justice" within his or her territory. Many of these Barons would also hold the rank of "Sheriff" within their region. (Please note in Scotland a Sheriff is a judge not a law enforcement officer as in North America). In addition, the judges of the Court of Session (Scotland's highest civil court) on appointment were give the courtesy title "Lord" during his lifetime and his wife would be known as "Lady". Lairds and Clan Chiefs were known by a whole collection of titles such as "Mackintosh of Mackintosh", "Caberfeidh" (Chief of Clan Mackenzie), "the MacShimmie" (Chief of Clan Fraser of Lovat), "of that Ilk" etc and these would include the thousands of Tacksmen who were usually younger sons and minor members of the leading family. The "untitled nobility" would also include people who were holders of his/her own Coat of Arms under Letters Patent and the correct category of men referred to as "Esquire". It might also include the Merchant class and Burgesses of the Burghs and Royal Burghs, especially those who held the distinction of being a Lord Lieutenant as in Aberdeen, Dundee, Edinburgh and Glasgow. Certain categories of lawyers who were Writers to the Signet, Solicitors to the Supreme Court or Advocates in Aberdeen within the solicitor branch or Queen's/King's Counsel or Sheriff within the advocate (Scottish equivalent of barrister) branch might also fall within the wider definition of "nobility" because in many cases either they separately fitted into another category above or were younger sons of those who did. Finally, if you are not already confused enough, the Aristocracy fits into several different categories depending on the date of creation of each title held. Pre-1603 the Scottish Royal family and aristocracy was separate and distinct from that in England and Wales although many members of one held titles in the other too. Ireland was a separate Kingdom which came under the control of the English Crown. During the period 1603-1707 all 3 Kingdoms (Scotland, England and Ireland) shared the same Royal family but as the Parliaments remained separate, each preserved its own aristocracy. During the period 1707-1800 the same Royal family remained but with the Union of the Parliaments in 1707, within the aristocracy a new category of Great Britain titles was created. Ireland retained its own Peerage. Finally from 1801 to the present day the current category of United Kingdom has applied to all new Peerages, both in Great Britain and Ireland and from the creation of the Irish Free State, Northern Ireland. == Purpose == The primary purpose of this category is to identify profiles for Scots who were or are considered to be "noble". ==Goals== The aim is to properly record on a profile the distinction or mark of nobility held by an individual enabling him or her to be linked to others holding the same or a similar rank of nobility such as ancestors and descendants where relevant and applicable. ==Team Resources== If you are in any doubt about whether a profile should be marked indicating the individual falls within the category of "Scottish Nobility" please contact Mark or any other Team Member.

'''[[:Project:Scotland| Scotland Project]]''' > '''[[:Space:Scotland - Membership Team| Membership Team]]''' > '''[[:Space:Scotland - Tartan Trail Team|Tartan Trail]]''' > Sourcing Help [[Category: Scotland Project Managed FSPs]] ==Sources== A '''source''' is the identification of where you found information. It is critically important that you include primary sources for your information, because... as they say, ''genealogy without sources, is mythology''.Lorine McGinnis Schulze, "[http://www.olivetreegenealogy.com/articles/myth.shtml Genealogy without Sources is Mythology]," article on Olivetree. Sources are required on WikiTree. It's part of our Honor Code. We've outlined what you'll need to know, specific to Scotland records and sources. ==How to Add Sources to a Profile== There are two acceptable ways to show your sources: '''*In a List''' - This is a simple way to provide source for the information on a profile. When in Edit mode, you'll see a section that looks like this: == Sources ==

Add your source, using the * (asterisk) to create a list. * "Scotland Census, 1900", database online. Home Parish, Small Town, Your County, Scotland; pg. 100, family 10, dwelling 15, lines 150-157; June 1, 1900; FreeCen, accessed: today's date '''Embed your source as a reference (sometimes called footnotes)''' - These are what many WikiTreer's mean when they talk about ''reference citations''. For example: John Doe was born in 1974. At the end of the statement of fact, you would add a citation using reference tags, like this: John Doe was born in 1974.Scotland: Statutory Register of Births; Sutherland, Scotland; Day Month 1975 You can also use the button on the edit toolbar to automatically create them: https://www.wikitree.com/skins/common/images/cite-source.png ==Citation Styles== WikiTree generally follows the Chicago Manual of Style (CMoS) and [https://www.evidenceexplained.com/ Evidence Explained], by Elizabeth Shown Mills, however, the important thing is ensuring your sources are cited. The Scotland Project strongly recommends using the WikiTree recommended style or an equivalent. A good source citation will enable others to judge the accuracy of the information found on the profile, and will let them independently verify the information by finding the source themselves. Such sources will answer the following 5 questions: # Who - who caused the record to be created # What - the title of the record set # When - when the record was created # Wherein - where in the record set the data was found # Whereat - at which repository is the record set found The syntax of Evidence Explained (or Chicago Manual of Style) allows a researcher to look at the citation and determine a lot of information about the source. ==Citation Content== *For newspapers and magazine articles ensure you include the title of the article, as well as the title of the publication. Naming the publisher is only necessary if the issue might be difficult to locate. If it is a rare book or periodical, you could include where it can be found. *For online material and databases, ensure you include the full URL for the page. You can create a link to the page by enclosing it in square brackets: [https://www.nrscotland.gov.uk/research/guides/birth-death-and-marriage-records/statutory-registers-of-births-deaths-and-marriages Scotland's Births, Deaths and Marriages]. It will then create a link like this: [https://www.nrscotland.gov.uk/research/guides/birth-death-and-marriage-records/statutory-registers-of-births-deaths-and-marriages Scotland's Births, Deaths and Marriages] The URL by itself in not sufficient in a source citation. It is also important to include the date on which the information was accessed. This is useful for when a URL changes. When using the external link syntax, descriptive text must be provided. :'''Note:''' Some websites, like FamilySearch and Wikipedia include source citations that you can copy-and-paste. WikiTree and the Scotland Project try, as much as possible, to use links to free access websites, rather than paid subscriptions sites like Ancestry.com *If the source is a unique item such as a family bible or an heirloom, consider uploading a photo of it (it belongs to you, or a family member, so there's no copyright issue) to a free-space page. *Cemetery headstone photos should be uploaded to the individuals profile page. Please use only photos you have taken yourself, or have been given permission by the photographer, to use. *Second-hand information, while not considered a primary source, often provides us with important details and clues. It is a good idea to cite who told you certain information, when they said it, and where they said it. If they have a WikiTree profile, include a link to their profile page. *First-hand information that you remember about a person's life, should also be cited in a similar manner. Link to your own WikiTree profile, and include a ''Personal recollection, date'' citation. ==Advanced Sourcing== There are times when we need to use the same source over and over again. WikiTree has one approved way to do this. Here is how to create it so you don't have to cite the whole thing each time: Author's Name, Book Title, date published, [web address copy available here] Each time you use the source again, you can just use this: Done this way, all subsequent references for the same source will point to the same entry at the bottom of the page. '''Note:''' the " is a quotation mark, not two apostrophes. ==Example Citations Specific to Scotland== The results of these examples can be found under the Sources heading at the bottom of the page. When you copy/paste a citation, You just need to place the citation inside the tags. This section is not intended to be a reference on how to write a biography and just provides examples of how to do source citations. *FamilySearch - copy/paste citation provided on each record. ::Example: Angus MacKay was born in 1793 and christened 31 Mar 1793 in Dornoch, Sutherland."Scotland Births and Baptisms, 1564-1950", database, FamilySearch (https://familysearch.org/ark:/61903/1:1:X18R-9F9 : 12 February 2020), Angus Mackay, 1793."Scotland Births and Baptisms, 1564-1950", database, FamilySearch (https://familysearch.org/ark:/61903/1:1:X18R-9F9 : 12 February 2020), Angus Mackay, 1793. ::If you need to use the same source more than once on the profile, you can do it this way: ::Example: Angus MacKay was born in 1793 and christened 31 Mar 1793 in Dornoch, Sutherland."Scotland Births and Baptisms, 1564-1950", database, FamilySearch (https://familysearch.org/ark:/61903/1:1:X18R-9F9 : 12 February 2020), Angus Mackay, 1793."Scotland Births and Baptisms, 1564-1950", database, FamilySearch (https://familysearch.org/ark:/61903/1:1:X18R-9F9 : 12 February 2020), Angus Mackay, 1793.

[[Category:Scotland Project]] [[Category: Scotland Project Managed FSPs]] '''Navigation:''' [[:Space:Scotland_-_Tartan_Trail_Team|Tartan Trail Team Page]] > Tartan Trail - Level I You'll have received a Welcome email from our Tartan Trail Coordinator. It contains links to your assigned Trail profile, lessons to help you through our self-learning Level 1, and details of how to request help from our team. ===Process=== You should do the lessons provided in your Welcome email. Then, you should review the profile as it exists now, before you start working on it. *Review the location name fields. Are they spelled correctly? Do they match the time period for the profile? *Search for and confirm sources for birth, marriage and death, as well as any census during their lifetime, using the free resources listed below. Once you're certain you've got the correct source, add it to the profile, using a full source citation. *Use a Research Notes section for any information that you are unable to confirm, find, or is disputed. This will allow others to perform futher research later. *Review your profile for completeness. A basic profile should include enough information to prevent incorrect merging, a basic biography narrative, and a Research Notes section for any incomplete or unverified information on the profile. Use the checklists below for items to be verified. *Submit your profile to the Tartan Trail Coordinator for review. A Guide will provide you with feedback and you should make any further edits they recommend. The guide will then choose the next profile for you to work on. *After completing two profiles from this time period, you'll move on to the next time period: 1700 to 1799. A Guide will help you through this Level. ==Project Approved Resources for 1800 to 1875== *[https://www.scotlandspeople.gov.uk/ Scotland's People] Indexes are available for many record types. Note that they offer the 1881 census free of charge to view. Select the check box for "1881 LDS". *[https://www.freecen.org.uk/ FreeCen website]: This site provides access to individual Census entries for Scotland between 1841 and 1891 **This information should be cross-referenced with the search results from [https://www.scotlandspeople.gov.uk/ Scotland's People website]: When used together, you can be fairly confident that the information is accurate. *[https://www.familysearch.org/en/ FamilySearch website]: This repository contains records for: **Scotland Births and Baptisms up to 1875 **Scotland Marriages up to 1875 **Find-a-Grave Memorials *If you do not find what you are looking for, you can ask our team to assist with a look-up on Ancestry. Ancestry.com is not normally an approved Project resource, however, due to the difficulties in accessing Scotland census data, the project will make an exception. == Level 1 Example Profiles == We are currently creating example profiles for Level 1 to give you some hints and tips on what a finished profile can look like. Of course every profile we research is different as people lead different lives and have different lifestyles. What records are available for one person are not necessarily available for another. However it is hoped that the Example Profiles can provide some insight into areas you haven't considered for your own profiles. The profiles that have been updated and made available as Examples are: * [[Currie-43|Agnes McTaggart (Currie) Miller (1856-1948)]] * [[Stevenson-1227|James Hyslop Stevenson (1865-1954)]] We will aim to have 4 completed examples and will therefore add to this list in due course. == Additional Resources == * [https://www.visitscotland.com/see-do/research-your-ancestry/professions-occupations/ Professions and occupations] * [[:Space:Scotland_-_Sourcing_Help| Sourcing Help]] to find ways to format your source citations well. *[[Space:Tartan_Trail_Resources| Tartan Trail Resources]] (Collected sources of the Tartan Trail Team) *[https://www.wikitree.com/wiki/Space:Scotland_Project_Templates%2C_Stickers_and_Images Scotland Project stickers] == Do's & Don'ts on Standards & Style == *Biography: There's no better way to honour a person than to write a few paragraphs about their lives and families. Typically organized in chronological order, this section describes the life of the person. It's best to write in biography style, versus timelines, as it is easier for others to build on later. We require our members to follow the WT guildelines for [[Help:Biographies|Biographies]]. *Add as much detail as possible. *Add a list of children with simple details. If the birth order is known, use a [[Help:Editing_Tips#Lists numbered list|numbered list]]. If not, then use a [[Help:Editing_Tips#Lists| bulleted list]]. *Acknowledgements: We follow the style guide on [[Help:Acknowledgements| Acknowledgements]]. We do not acknowledge uploaders of profiles. We do not retain a list of GEDCOM uploads. This information is tracked under the Changes tab. *We discourage using tables on profiles. Although they are a convenient way to display data, they also intimidate newer members who may not know how to change or update them. Long bulleted lists of events, or Timeline formats are not encouraged. *We discourage using coloured or non-standard fonts. Many are difficult to read on certain devices. *Background Images / Wall paper: Throughout WikiTree, you may see examples of profiles that use an image as background or "wallpaper." Wallpaper is a matter of taste, and one profile manager may be for it; another one against it. Background can also be very difficult for members with vision challenges. So please be thoughtful about adding backgrounds, and don't take it personally if someone removes a background image. We discourage using tiled backgrounds as they may pose a problem for some members with visual issues. We've supplied [[Space:Scotland_-_Clan_Tartans| tartan images]] which can be used for backgrounds for clan members. ==Checklist Level 1== *Data Section **Is the data correct? Birth date and place should be the same in the data fields and in the biography. Parents should match sources. Marriage date and place should be the same in the data fields and in the biography. Death date and place should be the same in the data fields and in the biography. Are they marked as: before, after, estimate or exact? **If no children, check this box: If there are no more known children, is the box checked? **Certainty and confidence: Are the appropriate buttons selected? *Biography Section **Is there a good biography? Are the sentences clear and concise? Are the facts confirmed by sources? Does the biography agree with the sources? If a marriage is mentioned, is it also in the Data section with the spouse attached? *Sources **Are the sources considered reliable for Scottish Profiles? Family Trees, Millenium Files, Yates Publishing, Find a Grave indexes or memorials without photos are not considered acceptable. **Are source citations formatted correctly? Did you use inline citations? *Categories **Are the appropriate categories added for: Birth, Marriage, Death, Location, Cemetery and Occupation? Are any other categories needed? *Children List **Is there a list of known children? Is it sourced by at least one primary or secondary source? **Are the children attached to the profile the same as the ones on the list? Do the facts agree? *Final Product **Is a Disputed Section needed? **Is a Research Notes Section needed? **Check the Suggestions for the profile and correct any issues **Are there any duplicate profiles? **Are the categories appropriate? **Are any stickers added appropriate?

If you haven't already requested to join the Scotland Project, you should follow the instructions on the [https://www.wikitree.com/g2g/1697757/would-you-like-learn-research-your-scottish-ancestors-2024 Join the Scotland Project] page in G2G '''Please note that you should complete any other orphan trail that you are currently participating in before beginning the Tartan Trail.''' This program uses existing orphaned profiles associated with Scotland, which serves two purposes. It gives you the freedom you need to practice and make mistakes, and it helps improve the quality of profiles within the project's reach. Level 1 of the Tartan Trail is a self-learning process. You will be supplied with lessons to help you through this level. On progression to Level 2, you will be assigned a Guide who will help you learn further skills needed to work within the Scotland Project. Our Guides are all former graduates of this process. They are experienced WikiTree members, and are here to help you on your journey. You'll be improving two profiles on each of the following levels. ==Level One== This level will focus on the time period between [[:Space:Scotland - Tartan Trail Level 1|1800 and 1875]]. Level 1 will start with basic skills: *[[Help:How_to_Get_Started_with_Genealogy#Source.2C_Source.2C_Source|Using Sources for Genealogy Research]]: This page outlines why sources are important when researching your ancestors. The Scotland Project requires all profiles that are part of the project's reach meet or exceed WikiTree's standards for sourcing. *[[Help:Sources| Sources Help Page]]: This page outlines why sources are a required part of the WikiTree experience and shows you two ways to add sources to your ancestors profiles. *[[Help:Uncertain#What_are_examples_of_sources_that_provide_uncertain_information.3F | What are examples of sources that provide uncertain information?]]: This page outlines what sources are considered derivative and are not used for profiles that are part of the Scotland Project. They can however, be helpful in finding true sources. *[[Help:Research_Notes|Research Notes Help Page]]: This page outlines why a Research Notes section can be helpful, where to properly place the research notes section, and introduces Research Note Boxes (we'll look at these more closely, later). *[[Help:Biographies|Biographies Help Page]]: This page outlines the required and optional headings for the biography portion of a profile. *Scotland Geography 101: [https://scotlandsplaces.gov.uk/ Scotland's Places] is our main resource for location names. Members should become familiar with what's available on the site. *Scotland History 101: [https://www.scotland.org/about-scotland/history-timeline History Timeline] for Scotland.

The Ulster Scots Team focuses on ancestors who migrated back and forth between Scotland and Ireland across the Irish Sea. ==Ulster-Scots Team== Leader: [[Crawford-15512|Amy Gilpin]] Team Leader for Ulster Scots and Scots-Irish: TBC Team Members: [[Smith-116348|Barry Smith]] | [[Walling-681|Elaine Goodner]] | [[Lowe-6149| Nancy Sitzlar]]| [[Brown-18795|Beth Golden]] | [[Dickson-4413|Margaret Allison]] | [[Kline-1865|Virginia (Kline) Norris Ph.D.]] The members of the Ireland Project portion of this team can be found [[Space:Scots-Irish_and_Ulster_Scots_Project_Members| here]] ==The Ulster Scots== With the distance between Galloway and Ireland only 30 Kilometres it is clear that there was significant travel between the two nations from the earliest days of Scotland's history. Indeed the very name, Scotland, is regarded as having its roots in the Roman Scoti, used to describe "raiders", mainly Irish. However this category considers the migration, of generally Protestant families, that commenced in the early 17th Century. Many of these families will become the early settler families of the American colonies and founding citizens of the States of the United States of America. '''1594''' The migration started in the last years of the reign of Elizabeth, Queen of England. Elizabeth had, for some time, fought against the, predominantly, Catholic population and had adopted a "scorched earth" policy in her dealings with rebellion. In 1594, Hugh O'Neill, Earl of Tyrone, allied himself with Spain and proclaimed himself the King of Ulster, the result was seven years of warfare, known as [[:Category: Nine Years' War (Ireland)|Nine Years' War (Ireland)]]. Elizabeth wanted this Rebellion crushed and her orders resulted in the largest conflict fought by England in the Elizabethan era. At its height in 1601 there were more than 18,000 soldiers were fighting in the English army in Ireland, many of these were also Scottish fighting against Catholicism. O'Neill was defeated and the Spanish Army returned to Spain. Elizabeth had died just days before the end of the Rebellion and war, once again, erupted. This time led by Conn mac Neale mac Bryan Feartagh O'Neal. Clearly a relative of the O'Neill although it is not clear which. Conn was captured, imprisoned and sentenced, without trial, to hang. Conn was rescued, for a "suitable fee" from his fate by Sir Hugh Montgomery, 4th Laird of Braidstane (Ayrshire), a notable soldier that had fought under Prince Maurice of Orange, in the Netherlands. Montgomery arranged for a relative, Thomas Montgomery of Blackston, who was owner of a sloop which sometimes traded with Carrickfergus. Part of the arrangement required Montgomery to arrange for a Pardon from James VI., now King and for this Montgomery engaged another Scot, James Hamilton, who had settled in Dublin some years before as a schoolmaster. Hamilton had been employed by James VI. as a political agent in Ireland working with the local chieftains. The result of this was that Conn's lands were divided amongst the three. '''1605''' On the 16th April 1605, by letters-patent were issued under the Great Seal (the King's Seal), "on the humble petition of Conn M'Neale M'Bryan Feartagh O'Neale, and of Hugh Montgomery, Esq., and of James Hamilton, Esq.," granting to the said James Hamilton all the lands in the Upper Clannaboye and the Great Ards which had been possessed by Con or by his father, Bryan Feartagh O'Neale, in his lifetime. Hamilton became bound to "plant" the lands with English and Scottish colonists, and to grant them only to those of English and Scottish blood, "and not to any of the mere Irish (excepting the said Conn O'Neale and his heirs)." Thus the first migration into Ulster commenced. '''1609''' Then, starting in 1609, Scots began arriving into state-sponsored settlements as part of the Plantation of Ulster. This scheme was intended to confiscate all the lands of the Gaelic Irish nobility in Ulster and to settle the province with Protestant Scottish and English colonists. Under this scheme, a substantial number of Scots were settled, mostly in the south and west of Ulster.

[[Category: Scotland Project Managed FSPs]] [[Category:Viscounts of Arbuthnott]] '''Viscount of Arbuthnott''' Viscount of Arbuthnott is the oldest Viscountcy, a title in the [[:Category:Peerage of Scotland|Peerage of Scotland]]. It was created in 1641, along with the subsidiary title Lord Inverbervie, for Sir Robert Arbuthnot. The Viscount of Arbuthnott is the hereditary Clan Chief of [[:Category:Clan Arbuthnot|Clan Arbuthnott]]. The family seat is Arbuthnott House, Arbuthnott, near Inverbervie, Kincardineshire (Aberdeenshire). Kincardineshire was a Scottish shire (later known as a county), which had previously been represented by two commissioners in the former Parliament of Scotland. The constituency included the whole shire, except for the Royal burgh of Inverbervie which formed part of the Aberdeen Burghs constituency. All Viscounts in the Peerage of Scotland have "of" in their titles, but most Scottish Viscounts have dropped the practice of using "of." The only ones who persist in the usage of the word are the Viscount of Arbuthnott, and, to a lesser extent, the Viscount of Oxfuird.

Frequently individuals have been connected up to others on WikiTree based solely on their name. It is also easy to get different individuals with the same name confused. * Source carefully prior to proposing a merge to be satisfied that the profiles are actually duplicates, rather than one or the other profile needing to be detached from a relationship ** Remember that Scottish Old Parish Registers can be quite disappointing as expected marriage and/or baptism records sometimes just don't seem to exist ** Be really methodical with your sourcing. Make sure you search for, and hopefully find, the relevant marriage as well as the baptisms ** Check dates. Do they fit? Is the mother of child-bearing age when she had her children? ** Check locations. If people seem to have moved around... how far? Was this likely or explainable? ** Cross-check baptism and marriage records with census records. Otherwise look at other information that can support the relationships.... occupation, fit with Scottish Naming Patterns, Wills or Sasines etc. * There can sometimes be valuable additional information on a baptism or marriage entry beyond the information provided in the indexes or recorded on familysearch. Unfortunately this costs money through Scotlands People, so difficult when we are often working on profiles that we aren't related to. Also the kirk session records can be invaluable when you find someone mentioned in there. === Scottish Traditional Naming Patterns === This often applies, but beware of exceptions! : 1st son named after the father's father : 1st daughter named after the mother's mother : 2nd son named after the mother's father : 2nd daughter named after the father's mother : 3rd son named after the father : 3rd daughter named after the mother == Resources == * WikiTree [[Space:Pre-1500_Resource_Page|Pre-1500 resources page]] * WikiTree [[Space:Scotland_Genealogy_Resources|Scotland Genealogy Resources]]

Occupying the northern third of the island of Great Britain, it shares a border with England to the south and is bounded by the North Sea to the east, the Atlantic Ocean to the north and west, and the North Channel and the Irish Sea to the southwest. In addition to the mainland, Scotland is made up of more than 790 islands including the Northern Isles and the Hebrides. It wasn't always like that. This category has selected c. 850 as its starting point. As WikiTree is becoming more complex this division is thought appropriate to separate the nation of Scotland from its ancestors. The time prior to this, until the 1st Century will be managed under [[:Category: Ancient Scotland|Ancient Scotland]]. {{Image|file=Graphics_for_Peerage_of_Scotland.png |align=r |size=m |caption=Scotland c. 1000 but before the fall of Nothumbria }} In 850 AD the land we know as Scotland today was a lot smaller than today. Our journey starts with Kenneth MacAlpin (Cináed mac Ailpín), generally regarded as the first king of a united Scotland and known today in most modern regnal lists as Kenneth I.. It is from him that the genealogical lineage becomes clearly defined and reliable source material is available. He was king of the Picts and, according to our national myth, the first king of Scots. Prior to him lineage is full of conjecture but after him history and genealogy becomes more certain. === Historical Focal points === ==== 800-1000 ==== : '''800 - 1000 AD''' is the Vikings period; Kenneth rose to power in the Kingdom of Fortriu (roughly where Moray is today) after the initial Viking wars when " king Uen son of Óengus of Fortriu, his brother Bran, Áed mac Boanta "and others almost innumerable" " where killed in battle in 839. The resulting power vacuum, created by so many of the Royal line being killed if the Pictish Chronicle king-lists have any validity, seems to have resulted in at least four would-be kings warring for supreme power. Out of this rose Kenneth I.. ==== 1000-1150 ==== : '''1000 - 1150''' are the wars of Establishment; Scotland, as a fledgling nation, fights for its survival against the vast Viking empire, that had reached its peak with Cnut c. 1000 AD, finding success at the [[:Space: Battle of Clontarf|Battle of Cluantarbh]] (Battle of Clontarf), near modern day Dublin, where Scotland, lead by the [[:Category: Mormaers of Mar|Earl of Mar]], and the other Celtic nations, under Brian Boru, found victory and relief from the Vikings. This period saw the end of the individual kingdoms and the rise of the [[:Category: Mormaers of Scotland|Mormaers]]. The period ends with the introduction of feudalism by David I and the [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Davidian_Revolution Davidian Revolution]. ==== 1150-1400 ==== : '''1150 - c. 1400''' is the feudal period; this period, defines the boundaries of modern Scotland and moves from a monarchic style to the rule of law enforced by a Parliament. It saw the introduction of new people, Normans, Flemish and other European nobility, into Scotland and the introduction of a new language. It saw the introduction of hereditary title, formalised the [[:Category: Scotland, Nobility|Nobility of Scotland]] and saw the establishment of the [[:Category: Peerage of Scotland|Peerage]]. It saw the rise and organisation of the sherrifdoms, later [[:Category: Scottish Counties|shires]], of the [[:Category: Scotland, Religious Congregations|church]], the parishes, the borough and towns. ==== 1400-1707 ==== : '''c. 1400 - 1707'''; is the period when Scotland stood as an individual nation, ruled by its own King and Parliament. This changed at the Acts of the Union in 1707. During this period Scotland had its own [[:Category: Scots Army|standing Army]] and [[:Category: Royal Scots Navy|standing Navy]] while after this period they became part of the [[:Category: British Army|British Army]] and [[:Category: Royal Navy|Royal Navy]] respectively. ==== 1707 to Present ==== : '''1707 until today'''; a time genealogists are most likely to be familiar with. == Resources for Scotland == * [[:Category:Scottish History|Scottish History]] *[[:Category:Scotland_Genealogy_Resources|Scotland Genealogy Resources]] === Images and Graphics === *[[Space:Graphics_for_Scotland|Graphics for Scotland]] includes maps, and other images. === Burial Records === *[https://www.deceasedonline.com/servlet/GSDOSearch Deceased Online]

These wars followed other related conflicts: the Bishops Wars (between Scotland and England) and the Irish Rebellion of 1641. In Scotland itself, from 1644–45 a Scottish civil war was fought between Scottish Royalists—supporters of Charles I—under James Graham, 1st Marquess of Montrose, and the Covenanters, who had controlled Scotland since 1639 and allied with the English Parliament. The Scottish Royalists, aided by Irish troops, had a rapid series of victories in 1644–45, but were eventually defeated by the Covenanters. However, the Covenanters then found themselves at odds with the English Parliament and backed the claims of Charles II to the thrones of England and Scotland. This led to the [[:Category: Third English Civil War|Third English Civil War]], when Scotland was invaded and occupied by the Parliamentarian New Model Army under Oliver Cromwell.

Some recent Challenges have involved families from Scotland, so it has spiked an interest in Scotland profiles. We have found several suggestions that anyone can correct, without knowing Scotland locations, so this is not limited to Scotland Project Members. Ales has an Info column on many suggestions with what the problem is and / or with what it should be changed to. Next month, we will have some different suggestions that are easy for everyone to help with. We will update the Totals weekly to see how we are improving the suggestions. *'''Following are some 'fairly easy' Suggestions with Scotland locations that would be great for everyone to work on during the Clean-a-Thon. * Remember that when you work on Marriage Suggestions, you will frequently also see similar birth and / or death Suggestions that can be worked on at the same time ==='''{{red|Thanks for helping to clean up the Wikitree Tree !!}}'''=== === Scotland Clean-A-Thon Suggestions 2023 === *'''If you are not sure about how to correct a Suggestion, just leave it 'as is', and check another one.

[[Category: Scotland Project Managed FSPs]] This is a draft policy for the Scotland Project [[Crawford-15512|Crawford-15512]] 16:01, 8 September 2021 (UTC) == Naming Policy for Royal Children in Scotland == Scotland Project has a number of royal children with profiles on WikiTree. There may still be a few that have not been added yet. As a result, the following guideline has been implemented by Project Leadership. === Last Name At Birth (LNAB) === Please '''Do Not''' use Scotland as the Last Name at Birth for a royal child, regardless of their legitimacy. Scotland is a surname in its own right. *When a royal child is legitimate, they should be given their father's Last Name at Birth. **When a royal child is born illegitimate but later legitimized, they should be given their father's Last Name at Birth as a Current Last Name or, in the case of a married daughter, as an Other Last Name. *When a royal child is illegitimate and the mother's surname is '''known''', the child should be given their mother's surname as their Last Name at Birth *When a royal child is illegitimate and the mother's surname is '''unknown'', the child should also have a Last Name at Birth of Unknown. Information about how the Last Name at Birth was chosen or related information, should be placed in a section below the biography but above any Research Notes. For example: === Name Details === === Royal Titles === Illegitimate royal children did not receive royal titles at birth and would never be considered a Princess or Prince. Please '''Do Not''' add these titles to illegitimate royal children in Scotland.

This is very easy to do, just make sure to check and '''add the commas in all locations''' between the City / Town, County / Region, and '''before''' Scotland. Expand all 3 letter abbreviations that you see in any of the locations. Hopefully, we will get many of the 3 letter County abbreviations also updated at the same time. This query should retrieve mainly Scotland locations, but if you come across a profile that is not Scotland locations, just ignore it and work on the next one. Since everyone will be using the same query, just jump around if you find some that have already been updated. Since this uses the database dump, the locations won't be updated in the query until Mon / Tues of each week. Since the Query uses Wikitree +, you have to hit the Blue 'Get Profiles' button when the query loads to see the results. If you want to work on one location, you could revise the query and add the location to the 'front' of the query, such as 'Fife', before the word 'Open' in the Query.

Without these locations, it is hard to find the profiles and duplicates could easily be created. Many of these profiles have a source, but not always. Many have no birth or death dates, as well as locations, so if we could get Birth and / or Death Date, location, and at least some source added to the profile, it will help everyone. Check for duplicates, if possible, in case profiles were added since these profiles were missing critical information. When you load the Query from 2nd column, Wikitree + will be started, select the '''{{Blue | Get Profiles }}''' Button to get the results. {| border="2" class="wikitable sortable" cellpadding="9" |- ! align="left" style="background:#8080FF;"|'''County / City''' ! align="left" style="background:#8080FF;"|'''Starting (4 Jan)''' ! align="left" style="background:#8080FF;"|'''9 Jan''' ! align="left" style="background:#8080FF;"|'''16 Jan''' ! align="left" style="background:#8080FF;"|'''23 Jan''' ! align="left" style="background:#8080FF;"|'''30 Jan''' ! align="left" style="background:#8080FF;"|'''Feb''' ! align="left" style="background:#8080FF;"|'''Mar''' ! align="left" style="background:#8080FF;"|'''Apr''' ! align="left" style="background:#8080FF;"|'''Total''' ! align="left" style="background:#8080FF;"|'''Working On''' |- |Aberdeen||[https://wikitree.sdms.si/default.htm?report=srch1&Query=Aberdeen+Scotland+Open+19cen+DeathLocation%3DMissingLocation+BirthLocation%3DMissingLocation&MaxProfiles=10000&Format=&PageSize=500 409]||400|| 366 ||349 ||324 || 254 || 245 || 247 || '''{{Blue|162 ↓}}''' || |- |Aberdeenshire||[https://wikitree.sdms.si/default.htm?report=srch1&Query=Aberdeenshire+Scotland+Open+19cen+DeathLocation%3DMissingLocation+BirthLocation%3DMissingLocation&MaxProfiles=10000&Format=&PageSize=500 769]|| 762||717||670|| 667 || 597 || 593 || 593 || '''{{Blue|176↓}}'''|| |- |Angus||[https://wikitree.sdms.si/default.htm?report=srch1&Query=Angus+Scotland+Open+19cen+DeathLocation%3DMissingLocation+BirthLocation%3DMissingLocation&MaxProfiles=10000&Format=&PageSize=500 386]|| 386||388||387|| 389||389 ||389|| 381 || '''{{Blue | 5↓}}'''|| [[Newsam-80|Catriona]] |- |Argyll||[https://wikitree.sdms.si/default.htm?report=srch1&Query=Argyll+Scotland+Open+19cen+DeathLocation%3DMissingLocation+BirthLocation%3DMissingLocation&MaxProfiles=10000&Format=&PageSize=500 212]|| 204||205||214|| 217 ||216 ||216 || 220 || '''{{Red |8↑}}'''|| |- |Ayrshire||[https://wikitree.sdms.si/default.htm?report=srch1&Query=Ayrshire+Scotland+Open+19cen+DeathLocation%3DMissingLocation+BirthLocation%3DMissingLocation&MaxProfiles=10000&Format=&PageSize=500 810]|| 805||808||809|| 809 ||811 ||816 || 820 || '''{{Red|10↑}}'''|| |- |Banffshire||[https://wikitree.sdms.si/default.htm?report=srch1&Query=Banffshire+Scotland+Open+19cen+DeathLocation%3DMissingLocation+BirthLocation%3DMissingLocation&MaxProfiles=10000&Format=&PageSize=500 120]|| 120|| 118 ||118|| 118||118 ||119 || 118 || '''{{Blue|2↓}}'''|| |- |Berwickshire||[https://wikitree.sdms.si/default.htm?report=srch1&Query=Berwickshire+Scotland+Open+19cen+DeathLocation%3DMissingLocation+BirthLocation%3DMissingLocation&MaxProfiles=10000&Format=&PageSize=500 107]|| 107||107||107|| 107 ||107 ||111|| 110 || '''{{Red |3↑}}''' || |- |Bute||[https://wikitree.sdms.si/default.htm?report=srch1&Query=Bute+Scotland+Open+19cen+DeathLocation%3DMissingLocation+BirthLocation%3DMissingLocation&MaxProfiles=10000&Format=&PageSize=500 32]|| 2||2||-|| -

Most of them need Sourcing, as well as Connecting to the Tree and all the families have a 'holiday name'. We've selected families from all over Scotland that have many profiles that could use some love - parents, siblings, spouses, and children. Profiles are 18th and 19th century timeframe to hopefully make it easier to find sources. Hopefully everyone can find a family or area that they would like to help with. To get started, just enter your name in the column after '''family members''', and mark it as completed when it’s done. Try to keep track of profiles added for each family in the last column. Thanks for the help. Hope everyone has a little holiday fun!!. ''' Remember that multiple people can work on a family. These are just one person in a family that needs sourcing and connecting.

[[Category: Scotland Project Managed FSPs]] [[Category:Scottish Images]] [[Category:Scotland]] ==Scotland Stickers== This section contains stickers you can use on profiles associated with Scotland. ===Scotland Sticker=== This template is for use on profiles of people born in Scotland and displays as: {{Scotland Sticker}} To place this on a profile, you can copy and paste this code just below the biography header. {{Scotland Sticker}} There is currently one variation: {{Scotland Sticker|witchcraft}} To place this on a profile, you can copy and paste this code just below the biography header. You'll need to document with sources to prove this statement. {{Scotland Sticker|witchcraft}} ===Scottish Ancestor Sticker=== This template is for use on profiles of people who have Scottish ancestors. It displays as: {{Scottish Ancestor Sticker}} To place this on a profile, you can copy and paste this code just below the biography header. {{Scottish Ancestor Sticker}} ==Migrating Ancestor Stickers== These stickers are for use on profiles of known emigrant ancestors. ===Scots-Irish and Ulster Scots 1718 Sticker=== This template is for use on profiles of people who have been identified as Scots-Irish and who emigrated to the United States from 1718 to present. {{Scots-Irish and Ulster Scots 1718 |location= Scots-Irish Immigrants to America 1718 onwards}} To place this sticker on a profile, you can copy and paste this code just below the biography header. {{Scots-Irish and Ulster Scots 1718 |location= Scots-Irish Immigrants to America 1718 onwards}} ===Migrating Ancestor=== This template is for use on profiles of people who emigrated from Scotland to another country. For example, an ancestor who emigrated from Scotland to Canada would use this template: {{Migrating Ancestor | origin = Scotland | destination = Canada | origin-flag = Flags-5.jpg | destination-flag = Flags-1.png }} To place this on a profile, copy and paste this code: {{Migrating Ancestor | origin = Scotland | destination = Canada | origin-flag = Flags-5.jpg | destination-flag = Flags-1.png }} Other destination flags can be found [[Space:Flags| here]]. Replace the destination flag code with the appropriate code for your destination country and/or time period. ===Nonmigrating Ancestor=== This template is an alternative to the Migrating Ancestor template. It can be used to add a flag and text for individuals who did not move from one country to another. For example, an ancestor who was born and died in Scotland would use this template: {{Nonmigrating Ancestor | flag =Flags-5.jpg | tooltip =Flag of Scotland | addinfo =Native of Scotland }} To add this template to a profile, copy and paste this code: {{Nonmigrating Ancestor | flag =Flags-5.jpg | tooltip =Flag of Scotland | addinfo =Native of Scotland }} If you wish to state the historic county, add the county name to the addinfo parameter: {{Nonmigrating Ancestor | flag =Flags-5.jpg | tooltip =Flag of Scotland | addinfo =Native of Sutherland, Scotland }} To add this to a profile, copy and paste this code: {{Nonmigrating Ancestor | flag =Flags-5.jpg | tooltip =Flag of Scotland | addinfo =Native of Sutherland, Scotland }} Remember to change the location name to the correct place for the profile you are placing it on. == Clan related stickers == === User Interest === This next sticker is for '''you,''' as a member of WikiTree, to show your interest in a particular clan. It has an additional parameter to allow for the clan's recognised tartan to be shown in the sticker. It displays as: {{User Interest Scottish Clan |tartan = Scotland_-_Clan_Tartans-191.jpg |clan = Clan Campbell }} To place this on a profile, copy and paste this code, changing the parameters to suit the situation: {{User Interest Scottish Clan |tartan = Scotland_-_Clan_Tartans-191.jpg |clan = Clan Campbell }} More information and examples are here: [https://www.wikitree.com/wiki/Template:User_Interest_Scottish_Clan Scottish Clan Interest Template] You'll take the appropriate tartan image name from this page: [https://www.wikitree.com/wiki/Space:Scotland_-_Clan_Tartans Scotland - Clan Tartans] And the correct clan name or family name from one of these two pages: [https://www.wikitree.com/wiki/Space:Scotland_-_Scottish_Clans_Teams Scottish Clan Teams] or [https://www.wikitree.com/wiki/Space:Scotland_-_Scottish_Families_Team Scottish Family Teams] ===Clan member=== This one shows that the person profiled was (or is currently) a clan member. This profile sticker is for WikiTreers and ancestors who are or were members of a Scottish Clan, and appears like this: {{User Scottish Clan |tartan = Scotland_-_Clan_Tartans-78.jpg |clan = Clan_MacCallum }} To place this on a profile, copy and paste this code, changing the parameters to suit the situation: {{User Scottish Clan |tartan = Scotland_-_Clan_Tartans-78.jpg |clan = Clan_MacCallum }} More information and examples are here: [https://www.wikitree.com/wiki/Template:User_Scottish_Clan Scottish Clan Member Template] You'll take the appropriate tartan image name from this page: [https://www.wikitree.com/wiki/Space:Scotland_-_Clan_Tartans Scotland - Clan Tartans] And the correct clan name or family name from one of these two pages: [https://www.wikitree.com/wiki/Space:Scotland_-_Scottish_Clans_Teams Scottish Clan Teams] or [https://www.wikitree.com/wiki/Space:Scotland_-_Scottish_Families_Team Scottish Family Teams]

[[Category: Scotland Project Managed FSPs]] [[Category:Scots in Service of United Netherlands]] {{Profile-box|For profiles, see [[:Category: Scots in Service of United Netherlands|the category]]}} == Scots Brigade == The infantry arm of the '''Scots Brigade''' in Holland began, in about 1572 under Colonel [[Ormiston-155|Andrew Ormiston]] and Sir [[Balfour-506|Henry Balfour]], by the enlistment of separate companies, each complete under its own captain where they were committed, as part of the Army of the United Netherlands, at the Battle of Haarlem. It was the Scots, in January 1573, under the command of Balfour who cut their way over the frozen lake, with eighty sledges laden with munitions and food. It was John Cuningham, a Scotsman, that commanded the artillery of the garrison. It was Balfour who, on the 15th of April, with his Scots made a 'camisade' or night attack on the Spanish lines at Russemburch, forced them, defeated a large body of troops, and carried back four standards. Scots also took part in the last unsuccessful attempt at relief. The battle cost the Scots dearly. At what time these were embodied into a distinct regiment it is difficult to say, but in 1586 the Scots companies, then about 10, were divided into two regiments under Colonels [[Balfour-506|Henry Balfour]] and Patten, and by the time of the Spanish Armada, if not indeed before, the elder regiment seems to have had its complete regimental organisation. The second regiment was brought over complete by [[Scott-8321|Walter Scott]], 1st Lord Buccleuch in 1603. The third was formed on a readjustment in 1628, and although from 1655 to 1660 the three were again converted into two, and between 1665 and 1672 the third regiment became completely Hollandised, and its place was taken, in 1673, by a newly raised one, the two older regiments had an unbroken existence from 1588, if not from 1572, and from 1603 respectively, while the third, dating from 1673, substantially represented the one formed in 1628. But while from 1628 onwards there were substantially three permanent regiments in service, on special occasions the number was increased. Thus in the campaign against Don John of Austria, Stuarts regiment also served, and from the allusion to other colonels, it would seem that there were others in the pay of other provinces. In 1629 the Earl of Morton's regiment, commanded by Lord Hay of Kinfauns, served at the siege of Bois-le-Duc. In 1697-98 three additional Scottish regiments, Ferguson's, Lord Strathnaver, and Hamilton's, were temporarily employed, replacing the English Brigade, and again during the time of Marlborough three regiments (Lord Portmore's, Lord Strathnaver, and Hamilton's) were employed, and reduced after the Peace of Utrecht. Again a fourth regiment, commanded by [[Douglas-3609|Henry Douglas]], Earl of Drumlanrig, was in service from 1747 to 1753. '''Cavalry''' During the earlier period there seem to have been at least two companies (squadrons or troops) of Scottish cavalry and sometimes more in the service of the States. Captain Wishart received a commission as captain of horse-arquebusiers in March 1586, and served until 1615 or 1616, when his company appears to have been transferred to Sir William Balfour, who commanded it till 1628. William Edmond received a commission as captain of lancers in 1588, and led his squadron at least until his succession to the command of the infantry regiment in 1699; and his son Thomas came from the infantry to a cavalry command in 1625. Patrick Bruce was commissioned as captain of a hundred lancers in 1593, and Thomas Erskine and Henry Bruce appear as cavalry captains in 1599. Captain Hamilton, a gallant Scottish cavalry captain, fell in the decisive charge at Nieuport in 1600. '''Service''' Scots saw active service with the United Netherlands nearly continuously from about 1572 until 1782. Even after this service there were a number of Scots that remained in Dutch service until 1795; these are recorded in this record. The period is generally viewed in eight distinct stages: : The period of the War of Independence from 1572 until 1609. : The period from about 1609 until 1621 which encompassed the Twelve Years War. : The period from 1621 until 1648 which covered actions in the [[:Category: Thirty Years' War|Thirty Years War]]. : The Period of William of Orange and the British Revolution covering 1649 until 1697. [[:Category: Franco-Dutch War|Franco-Dutch War (1672-1678)]]; [[:Category: Nine Years' War|Nine Years' War (1688-1697)]] : The period of the War of the Spanish Succession between 1698 and 1712. : The period of the general peace between 1713 and 1742. : The period of the War of the Austrian Succession between 1742 and 1749. : The last days of the Brigade between 1750 and 1782. '''Genealogy''' Fortunately, Ferguson also focused on the birth and marriages of the ordinary soldier, providing us a great insight into the marriages of the day. These might be the only source of this material as it was invariably not recorded on the historical Parish records of the day, the Scots Kirk in Rotterdam being a notable exception (see following). Thus they have been included in this record. This history might provide some answers for people with Dutch ancestors and no known Scottish surnames but whose DNA matches people who do have known Scottish ancestors.

[[Category: Scotland Project Managed FSPs]] ===Attribution=== Clan membership is a choice. If seeking to attribute a '''historical profile''' to a Clan there are a couple of general rules: * Generally, if a person is of Scottish descent and bears the surname, or acknowledged variant, of the Clan Chief they would be recognised as a member of that Clan. * Generally, on marriage, a spouse, either male or female, will change their clan to become a member of the other spouse's clan. Traditionally it is the female that changes the name but there are many cases of the reverse. * A person can choose to become a member of any clan. Historically this was for protection but in modern times it is a choice. A Clan Chief may reject the application, but examples of any rejection are few. * A person can be a member of '''only one Clan at a time'''. For every generalisation there are exceptions. When choosing a Clan attribution, please discuss with the relevant Clan Sponsor, or if no sponsor ask Scottish Clans Coordinator [[Sutherland-Fisher-1|Mark Sutherland-Fisher]].

[[Category: Scotland Project Managed FSPs]] ===Definitions=== '''What is a Clan?''' A Scottish clan (clan; from Gaelic clann, - children) consists of a group of families and individuals that often share descent and are generally defined in a common surname. '''When did the Clans start?''' No one really knows. There were tribes in Scotland before the arrival of the Norman families and the introduction of feudalism. They generally followed the rules of tanistry in selection of the chiefs. Although the change occurred over time it is generally considered that Robert I (the Bruce), c. 1320, secured the agreement of the last chiefs to conform to feudalism. Thus granting them, in the incumbent chief, the hereditary right to ''ownership'' (rather than custodianship) of the lands, in return for ''allegiance'' to the Crown. It is this that distinguished the clans from tribes of other indigenous peoples. '''What about today?''' The creation and management of clans is, by default, under the jurisdiction of the Court of the Lord Lyon, also known as the Lyon Court or Lyon Office. This is a standing court of law that regulates all aspects of heraldry in Scotland. They regulate the rightful heir to the undifferenced arms of the clan. The clan is considered to be the chief's heritable estate and the chief's Seal of Arms is the seal of the clan as a "noble corporation." Under Scots law the chief is recognised as the head of the clan and serves as the lawful representative of the clan community. '''Clans are Highland and families are Lowland?''' No, this is not the case. The terms are used interchangeably in Scottish law. It is correct to say the MacDonald family as it is to say Clan Pringle. '''What about Septs?''' Septs are no longer recognised and not needed on wikitree. While once used to show families affiliated with a particular Clan, they were time dependent. There was never any ''official list''. On wikitree, as a general rule, it is more appropriate to associate a profile with the family name. '''Who can become a member of a clan?''' This has varied over time. Historically a family, or group of families, banded together, bounded by geography, for protection and would form a clan. The chief was chief of his clan territory and all the persons who lived there, although members of his immediate family, might owe him allegiance wherever they were living. This was a clan. A chief was also entitled to add to his clan, often through territorial gains or by the adoption of families or groups of families. It is the chief of a clan that can decide who are members of their clan. Today, without the same geographical constraints, membership is more relaxed. The generally applied rule is "Every person who has the same surname as the chief is deemed to be a member of the clan. Equally if a person offers his allegiance to a particular Clan by joining a clan society (recognised by the office of the Lord Lyon by the granting of Armorial Bearings) he can be deemed to have elected to join that particular clan and should be viewed as a member of that clan unless the chief particularly states that he or his name group are not to be allowed to join the clan."Sir Crispin Agnew of Lochnaw, Rothsay Herald, a current Scottish herald of arms in Ordinary of the Court of the Lord Lyon, in his [http://www.electricscotland.com/webclans/clans_families_septs.htm dissertation of Scottish Clans]Standing Council of Scottish Chief on [https://www.clanchiefs.org.uk/who-is-a-member-of-a-clan/ Clan membership] '''All members of the clan are descendants of the first chief.''' No, this is not the case. It would be inappropriate, particularly on wikitree, to ''assume'' that a person was a descendent of a chief. Care needs to be taken with ancestors, particularly around the period of the 17th and 18th Century where soldiers captured often gave the name of their clan as their last name even if they knew their "correct" surname. '''Do women always take the name of the husband's clan?''' No, there are plenty of cases in history where the man takes on the woman's family name and clan. Membership is a choice, in general practise today a woman can be of a different clan to her husband. '''It is impossible to be a member of two clans.''' While this is a general rule there are exceptions. Exceptions may arise due to time differences or marriage. They may also arise due to families, with the same name, arising from different source families. An example is Henderson; the current clan chief is Alistair Henderson of Fordell, the historical seat of the clan is in Fife. However families of that name (in Gaelic is ''Maceanruig'') were part of the MacDonald of Glencoe and were also associated with Clan Gunn, in north Scotland. There is no known family association between them however they are all, today, regarded as part of Clan Henderson. It would be correct, on wikitree, to also associate the piper at Glencoe as a member of Clan MacDonald as this was historically correct. The Lyon Court maintains a List of all Clans, which can be found on [http://www.electricscotland.com/webclans/clanmenu.htm Electric Scotland as the Official Scottish Clans and Families] and [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Scottish_clans wikipedia]. There are other sources with varying degrees of accuracy depending on when the page was developed. Amongst these clans are those that have a legally recognised Chief and those, armigerous, that do not. Wikitree, due to its historical nature, maintains entries for any recognized Clan. To facilitate management of the project we maintain "Teams" to manage these clans. They can be found on the clan pages.

''Peerage of Scotland''
This category is part of [[:Category:Scottish History|Scottish History]] and managed by the [[:Project: Scotland|Scotland Project]]. The Category encompasses nobility of the Kingdom of Scotland from its definable origin as the Kingdom of Alba until the Treaty of the Union in 1707. After that date the Peerage of Scotland became part of the Peerage of Great Britain. As such, it is larger than that provided on [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Peerage_of_Scotland wikipedia]. The primary source reference for research into this field are the nine volumes of Sir Balfour Paul's work, "The Scots Peerage". The Peerage, as we know it today, arrived with the adoption of Feudalism in Scotland, generally defined as occurring in the reign of King [[Dunkeld-68|David I]].

[[Category: Scotland Project Managed FSPs]] == Scottish Aristocracy, Nobility and Royalty == The title of Mormaer designates a regional or provincial ruler in the medieval Kingdom of the Scots. In theory, although not always in practice, a Mormaer was second only to the King of Scots, and the senior of a toisech. See the sub-category of Mormaers [[:Category:Mormaers_of_Scotland|here]]. === Scottish Royal Houses (Monarchs of Scotland) === The monarch of Scotland was the head of state of the Kingdom of Scotland. According to tradition, the first King of Scots (Middle Scots: King of Scottis, Modern Scots: Keeng o Scots) was Kenneth MacAlpin (Cináed mac Ailpín), who founded the state in 843. The distinction between the Kingdom of Scotland and the Kingdom of the Picts is rather the product of later medieval myth and confusion from a change in nomenclature, i.e. Rex Pictorum (King of the Picts) becomes ri Alban (King of Alba) under Donald II when annals switched from Latin to vernacular around the end of the 9th century, by which time the word Alba in Gaelic had come to refer to the Kingdom of the Picts rather than Britain (its older meaning). The Kingdom of the Picts just became known as Kingdom of Alba in Gaelic, which later became known in Scots and English as Scotland; the terms are retained in both languages to this day. By the late 11th century at the very latest, Scottish kings were using the term rex Scottorum, or King of Scots, to refer to themselves in Latin. The title of King of Scots fell out of use in 1707, when the Kingdom of Scotland was merged with the Kingdom of England to form a single Kingdom of Great Britain. Thus Queen Anne became the last monarch of the ancient kingdoms of Scotland and England and the first of Great Britain, although the kingdoms had shared a monarch since 1603 (see Union of the Crowns). Her uncle Charles II was the last Scottish monarch actually to be crowned in Scotland, at Scone in 1651. See a list of Scottish monarchs [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Scottish_monarchs here]. ===Dynasties and Regimes=== : [[:Category:House of Alpin|House of Alpin]] (843–878; 889–1040) : [[:Category:House of Moray|House of Moray]] (1040–1058) : [[:Category:House of Dunkeld|House of Dunkeld]] (1058–1286) : [[:Category:House of Balliol|House of Balliol]] (1292–1296) : [[:Category:House of Bruce|House of Bruce]] (1306–1371) : [[:Category:House of Stewart|House of Stewart]] (1371–1603) : [[:Category:House of Stuart | House of Stuart]] (1603-1707 : Acts of Union 1707

[[Category: Scotland Project Managed FSPs]] '''[[Project:Scotland|Scotland Project]]''' > '''[[Space:Scotland - Scottish Clans Teams|Scottish Clans Teams]]''' > Scottish Clans Protocol Team == Welcome == Welcome to the page supporting the Scottish Clans Protocol Team. Hopefully you will find the answer to questions you may have and an explanation as to why we do things in a particular way. == Goals == The primary goal of the Scottish Clans Protocol Team is to promote the use of accurate and relevant content on profiles of interest to Team Members. The team will keep a watchful eye on profiles of individuals who bear a surname (LNAB) associated with one of the Scottish clans, either through birth or marriage. This will apply not only to those born in Scotland but also the “Scottish diaspora”. The secondary goal is that when time permits, the team can assist in improving profiles for other individuals born in Scotland or elsewhere in the world bearing what can broadly be described as a “Scottish surname” (LNAB). == Participants == * [[Lenover-1|Marty Acks]] * [[Pennie-22|Mrs Laura J. Bozzay]] * [[Crawford-15512|Amy Gilpin]] * [[Stanton-3574|T Stanton]] * [[Sutherland-Fisher-1|Mark Sutherland-Fisher]] * [[Templeton-1883|Sheena Tait]] * [[Thomas-10705|Michael R. Thomas]] * [[McCallum-175|Doug McCallum]] ==Uniform approach== There are many ways in which names are acquired and it is recognised that for few names there is a single “correct” spelling. In relation to Scottish clans, recognised by the Court of the Lord Lyon, the default spelling of the surname (LNAB) will be that used by the relevant Clan Chief and his/her family or by the person(s) administering the clan’s group on Wikitree. Where a person’s surname (LNAB) is different on an official birth record in the country of birth, that spelling will apply. In order to avoid confusion, members should use the “other last name” field to insert other spellings. It is not uncommon to find 2 or even 3 different spellings of surnames within the same generation let alone a wider family or clan. ==Prefix field== Should be used where the individual has a recognised prefix such as “Sir”, “Lady”, “Rev”, “Dr” or a military rank. The only men who should have the prefix “Lord” are younger sons of Dukes and Marquises. The only women who should have the prefix “Lady” are the daughters of Dukes, Marquises or Earls”. Where a woman acquires the title “Lady” through marriage that should be reflected in the nickname field and only used if e.g. she was known by that title independently of her husband. Otherwise titles should appear in the biographical section. In Scotland, traditionally medical doctors are not in fact Doctors but Bachelors of Medicine and Bachelors of Surgery i.e. MB. Ch.B. However by courtesy they tend to be accorded the prefix “Dr.” and that should be used. Similarly in Scotland, the holders of an academic doctorate, whether earned or awarded as an honorary recognition of some achievement are normally referred to as “Dr” rather than Ph.D. or D.D., D.Phil. etc. as is the practice in the USA and other countries. Please use the prefix. ==First name field== This should contain just the first Christian or forename of an individual. Where an individual is known by a compound Christian name e.g. “Mary Ann” or “John Angus” please display this in the Preferred name field. There are also many instances, especially among early Wikitree profiles of a Gaelic spelling of a name appearing either in the first name field or middle name field. It should properly appear in the preferred name field. ==Preferred name field== This should be used for the name by which the individual was known. Hence Robert Macgregor of Glengyle should have “Rob Roy” in the preferred name field. If someone was known by a Gaelic name, that should appear in the preferred name field. ==Other nicknames field== On every occasion, if a person was the holder of a title or territorial designation, in compliance with the current European Aristocrat Project policy, it should appear in this box. If the policy changes this guidance will change. If someone held several titles then only the most senior one should appear here and others be referred to in the Biography. Similarly if someone was known by a Gaelic description then it should appear here either in Gaelic or English. Clan Mackenzie in particular is fond of such names e.g. “Colin of the one eye”. I tend to cut and paste Gaelic names for fear of spelling them incorrectly and causing offence! Another group who require to be set out in detail are Ministers of the Church of Scotland and senior clergy in the Scottish Episcopal and Roman Catholic Churches. Where the minister was the Parish Minister, in this field it is entirely appropriate to refer to him as e.g. “Minister of Wick”. If he was not a Parish Minister then it should be “Minister at Wick”. Similarly in the other churches there will be “Archdeacon of St Andrews”, “Canon of Inverness”, “Bishop of Argyll and the Isles”, “Cardinal Archbishop of Glasgow” etc. This is especially the case because there is insufficient room in the prefix field for e.g. “Cardinal” and it is inappropriate to abbreviate it in the way Lieutenant General can be abbreviated to “Lt.Gen.” ==Middle name field== This is self-explanatory and should be for all other names other than first and surname (LNAB). ==Last Name At Birth field== Should in all cases reflect the surname the individual had and the relevant spelling, where known. In the absence of a birth certificate (post 1855) or Old Parochial Register entry (pre 1855) the spelling used by the child’s father if legitimate or mother if illegitimate or not acknowledged by the father, should be used. Where the family did use a compound surname then that is the appropriate surname. In Scotland most compound names are not hyphenated. ==Current Last Name field== For almost all men this will remain the surname (LNAB) held at birth. In some cases, e.g. where a man has adopted his father-in-law’s surname in order to succeed to a title or ownership of an estate then it will change. The most contentious situation is with married women. Under Scots Law a woman keeps her maiden surname for life. However by legal convention in the modern era (post-1855) she almost always automatically took her husband’s surname on marriage unless she was of a higher social status when he would often be expected to take her name. Even though most married women pre-1855 will appear in parish entries under their maiden name it may be that she herself used either or both of her maiden surname and/or married surname . A good guide from 1841 is the census returns. Most married women appear in them under their current married surname. For woman pre 1855 it is a matter of choice and I would always defer to the Profile Manager, especially if he or she is a direct descendant of the female in question. Remember almost all records for married women pre-1855 are not evidence of the surname they used but the surname the Church of Scotland chose to use in referring to them. The primary interests of the Church were to avoid fornication, incest and illegitimacy and recorded women’s’ maiden names to highlight pre-existing family links. Many parishes didn’t bother to name the mother on her children’s baptism records because it was the father who determined the status of his children. If in doubt, leave a Scottish woman’s maiden name as her current last name though it does make it less easy to identify her in searches. In respect of a married woman whose husband owned a landed estate she would invariably be referred to as “Lady X” where X was the name of her husband’s estate not his surname. If the married woman was the wife of a Peer she would be known by the female version of her husband’s peerage. ==Other Last Name(s) field== Again self-explanatory and if a woman has been married several times then if possible each married name prior to her final one, should appear. My advice is that if she was married more than 3 times then this should be reflected in the biography. ==Suffix field== This should only be used for recognised items such as Orders and Decorations. The suffix “Esq.” has a specific legal meaning in Scotland and applied only to men who were “Gentlemen” invariably members of the untitled nobility i.e. holders of coats of arms without a title. It is not the practice in Scotland to put a suffix after a man’s name in order to indicate he is e.g. the sixth generation to hold that name, a practice which is commonly adopted in the USA. It is also not the practice in Scotland to put a suffix after a man’s name to indicate he is e.g. the first holder of a title or territorial designation. For example when Sir Walter Scott was elevated to the rank of Knight Baronet in 1820, he became Sir Walter Scott, 1st Baronet not Sir Walter Scott, Baronet 1st. ==Birth date== There are too many profiles where this is blank. A reasonable estimate should always be inserted in the absence of an actual, documented date. To maintain good practices, if the date is based on siblings or other generational guesses, either the {{Estimated Date}} template can be utilized, or an explicit statement in the bio should be added that will explain how the estimate was arrived at. Common sense should apply. In Scots Law boys could marry at 14 and girls at 12. With the exception of Henry VII’s mother, few women bore children before the age of 15 and very few successfully bore them above the age of 45. If possible check if there is a date of marriage or marriage contract for the parents and base your estimate on that. The eldest son should normally be born within 5 years of the parents’ marriage. The youngest child cannot be born more than 9 or at most 10 months after the father’s death and absolutely no children can be born after the date of the mother’s death! ==Birth place== There are too many profiles where what is entered is just nonsense. Either the person who has entered the information has no understanding of Scottish geography or the naming of places and especially counties. For example Ross and Cromarty was only created in 1890. Any reference to that county before 1890 is just nonsense and it would be either Ross-shire or Cromartyshire. Morayshire was for a long time known as Elginshire. Angus was known as Forfarshire. West Lothian was known as Linlithgowshire. In addition someone cannot have been born at a location which did not exist at the time. A man cannot have been born in a castle which was only erected by his grandson! ==Death date== This is less important than birth date but where known should be entered, even if using the “before” option. This can often be ascertained from the marriage record of a child where a parent is described as “deceased” or a person described as a “widow” or “widower”. ==Death place== The same comments apply as to the location of a person’s birth. ==Marriage date== In the absence of a known date, a reasonable estimate should be given because as with birth and death dates, it helps reduce the impossibility of parents marrying while one of them was still a child or after the date of all their children’s’ births with a few notable exceptions. If there is no marriage date but there is a marriage contract either use that date or mark it as “after” that date. ==Marriage location== The same logic applies as to birth and death locations. ==Biographical details and ancillary matters== There are Clan stickers and Project boxes. The former are the small stickers which should generally be used and the latter which should only be used on profiles where the Clan project is the profile manager. There is a standard set of clan designs and tartans which should be adhered to. Where a profile displays miscellaneous items which are either simply wrong (e.g. a picture of a castle the individual never lived in) or a coat of arms which was the property of another person (remember there is no such thing as a clan or family coat of arms), the Profile Manager should be contacted privately and encouraged to remove them. If they remain after 7 days then by all means remove them. Some profiles have a great deal of extraneous information totally irrelevant to the individual profiled. While perhaps not to our taste unless it is factually misleading or simply inaccurate, it is for the Profile Manager to decide whether to retain it or not. The use of Succession boxes help link profiles and are to be encouraged. This is especially the case where a title or estate passed not from parent to child but to another branch of the extended family due either to the terms of an Entail or the Law on Primogeniture. ==Sources== Please encourage the use of good sources. While Family Search and online trees can be indicative, they are not primary sources and open to plagiarism with the unhappy result of promoting inaccurate information. ==Research Notes== These do not appear very often and can be invaluable because they offer either the Profile Manager or another person an opportunity to give an explanation in a factual manner as to why some comment or detail on the profile may or may not be correct. ==Acknowledgements== If someone has written a special note in the Acknowledgments section, those should not be removed as they are a means of thanking someone for taking the time and putting in the effort of creating or making a substantial contribution to the profile, unless there is something factually incorrect. Removing auto-generated Gedcom Acknowledgements, such as “This person was created through the import of ClanCampbell.ged on 21 February 2015” once the profile has been updated with better sources is acceptable. These will remain in the profile's changes log if there is a need to retrieve them. ==Finally……………== Remember all members of the Wikitree community are volunteers. In most cases they genuinely believe what they are posting. Even if we know comments are totally incorrect, please share this information in as sensitive a manner as possible. Wherever possible, communicate your concern about content on a profile to the Profile Manager in a private message. Only post it on the face of the profile if you get no response or a negative response. If you need guidance or wish to discuss the content of a particular profile, contact Mark, whom failing Maria. ==Sticker== {{Sticker |image = Flags-5.jpg |imagetext = Saltire |text={{Name}} Is a member of the Scottish Clans Protocol Team }} This template is for profiles of people who are members of the Scottish Clans Protocol Team You can also visit the [[Project:Scottish_Clans|Scottish Clans Project]] on Wikitree.

[[Category: Scotland Project Managed FSPs]] [[Project: Scotland|Scotland Project]] ==Scottish Counties and Cities (Independent) == === Counties === The county map selected by the project is the County map that was introduced in 1890 and was replaced in 1975. This map is considered the most relevant by today's genealogists and is most likely to be referenced in genealogical research. There were 33 counties defined. In official documents shires were originally referred to as the Shire of xxx, rather than xxx Shire but it had become common place by 1890 to refer to them as xxxx shire. In Scotland, as in Wales, the terms "shire" and "county" have been used interchangeably, with the latter becoming more common in later usage.

Until the 15th Century these men generally acted as individuals or small units of Knight and his retainers, seeking fame and fortune in foreign armies. With a significant portion of Scottish nobility arriving from Flanders with David I, Scottish Foreign Policy was developed to support trade with the Low Countries. The ''[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Auld_Alliance Auld Alliance]'' between France and Scotland included Flanders and the world's earliest standing units can be found in the ''[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Garde_%C3%89cossaise Garde Écossaise]''; the Royal Guard to the King of France. Around 1550 it started to be the foreign policy for Scotland to create units and allow their service on foreign soil, often in preservation of trading interests. In the period between 1570 and 1640 the Privy Council of Scotland received numerous requests to recruit for service overseas generally to protect the interests of Protestant nations. It is unlikely that the Privy Council were aware of the true extent of recruiting. In 1572, when famine hit Edinburgh, the Privy Council provided a decree urging "all able-bodied men" to leave Edinburgh to go to the "wars in Flanders". By 1620, Scotland's finest were in such high demand that Scotland resorted to commutation of prisoners sentence to meet the recruiting requirement. Units of varying sizes were sent to Bohemia and Denmark that consisted, to a large extent, of "the very worst of Scottish society - beggars, vagabonds and Border outlaws". In 1626 over 14,000 Scots left Scotland for service overseas. In the 20 years to 1640 a recorded 47,110 men would accept foreign service and thousands more were not recorded. Many of these would remain, inter-marry and have children.

[[Category: Scotland Project Managed FSPs]] [[Space:Scotland - Scottish Nobility| Scottish Nobility Team]] > '''Scottish Nobility Naming Standards ''' :This is a draft document for the Scotland Project's Scottish Nobility Naming Standards for Profiles. [[Crawford-15512|Crawford-15512]] 16:16, 3 February 2020 (UTC) ==Aims of the Team:== :'''Parameters for Team:''' *The team will primarily keep a watchful eye on profiles of individuals who are considered to be members of the Scottish Nobility, either through birth or marriage. This will apply not only to those born in Scotland, but also the ''Scottish diaspora''. There are many members of the Scottish Nobility who are citizens of other countries. For example, the current Earl of Newburgh, the 12th holder of this Scottish earldom, is Prince Rospigliosi in the Italian nobility. ==Uniform Approach== *There are many ways in which noble titles and names are acquired. It is recognised that for few names there is a single correct spelling. In relation to Scottish clans that are recognised by the Court of the Lord Lyon, the default spelling of the surname (LNAB) will be that used by the relevant Clan Chief and his/her family or by the person(s) administering the clan’s group on Wikitree. Where a person’s surname (LNAB) is different on an official birth record in the country of birth, that spelling will apply. In order to avoid confusion, members should use the '''other last name''' field to insert other spellings. It is not uncommon to find 2, or even 3, different spellings of surnames within the same generation, let alone a wider family or clan. In relation to titles, the spelling of the title will be that used in Balfour-Paul’s 9 volumes on the Peerage of Scotland. ===Prefix Field=== *The prefix field should be used where the individual has a recognised prefix such as ''Sir'', ''Lady'', ''Rev'', ''Dr'', or a military rank. The only men who should have the prefix ''Lord'' are younger sons of Dukes and Marquises. The only women who should have the prefix ''Lady'' are the daughters of Dukes, Marquises or Earls. Where a woman acquires the title ''Lady'' through marriage, that should be reflected in the nickname field and only used if e.g. she was known by that title independently of her husband. Otherwise, titles should appear in the biographical section. *In Scotland, traditionally medical doctors are not in fact Doctors but Bachelors of Medicine and Bachelors of Surgery i.e. MB. Ch.B. However, by courtesy, they are accorded the prefix ''Dr.'' and that should be used. Similarly, in Scotland, the holders of an academic doctorate, whether earned or awarded as an honorary recognition of some achievement, are normally referred to as ''Dr.'' rather than Ph.D. or D.D., D.Phil. etc., as is the practice in the USA and other countries. Please use the prefix. ===First Name Field=== *This should contain just the first Christian, or forename, of an individual. Where an individual is known by a compound Christian name, like ''Mary Ann'' or ''John Angus'', please display this in the Preferred Name Field. There are also many instances, especially among early Wikitree profiles, of a Gaelic spelling of a name appearing, either in the first name field or middle name field. It should properly appear in the preferred name field. ===Preferred Name Field:=== *This should be used for the name by which the individual was known. Hence, Robert Macgregor of Glengyle should have ''Rob Roy'' in the preferred name field. If someone was known by a Gaelic name, that should appear in the preferred name field. ===Other Nicknames Field:=== *If someone was known by a Gaelic description, then it should appear here either in Gaelic or English. Clan Mackenzie in particular is fond of names such as ''Colin of the One Eye''. I tend to cut and paste Gaelic names for fear of spelling them incorrectly and causing offence! ===Middle Name Field=== *This is self-explanatory, and should be for all other names other than first and surname (LNAB). ===Last Name At Birth Field=== *This field should, in all cases, reflect the surname the individual had and the relevant spelling, when known. In the absence of a birth certificate (post 1855), or Old Parochial Register entry (pre 1855), the spelling used by the child’s father if legitimate, or mother if illegitimate, or not acknowledged by the father, should be used. Where the family did use a compound surname, then that is the appropriate surname. In Scotland, most compound names are not hyphenated. ===Current Last Name Field:=== ====Men==== *For almost all men, this will remain the surname (LNAB) held at birth. In some cases, e.g. where a man has adopted his father-in-law’s surname, in order to succeed to a title, or ownership of an estate, then it will change. See also below the rule for members of the Scottish Nobility. ====Married Women==== *The most contentious situation is with married women. Under Scots Law, a woman keeps her maiden surname for life. However, by legal convention in the modern era (post-1855), she almost always automatically took her husband’s surname on marriage, unless she was of a higher social status. This is when he would often be expected to take her name. Even though most married women pre-1855 will appear in parish entries under their maiden name, it may be that she herself would use either, or both, her maiden surname and/or married surname . A good guide from 1841 is the census returns. Most married women appear in them under their current married surname. *For women pre 1855, it is a matter of choice. Defer to the Profile Manager, especially if he or she is a direct descendant of the female in question. *Remember, almost all records for married women pre-1855 are not evidence of the surname they used, but the surname the Church of Scotland chose to use in referring to them. The primary interests of the Church were to avoid fornication, incest, and illegitimacy. They recorded women’s maiden names to highlight pre-existing family links. Many parishes didn’t bother to name the mother on her children’s baptism records, because it was the father who determined the status of his children. *While the purists will argue, with some authority, that the profiles of Scots women living and dying before 1841 should always show her LNAB as her current surname, this causes literally thousands of duplicate profiles being unnecessarily created on Wikitree, followed by merges wherever spotted. *The project, therefore, has a married surname as the current last name default position, unless the Profile Manager expresses a wish for it to remain the LNAB. *If a married woman is the daughter of a member of the nobility, titled or untitled, then it is possible to retain her LNAB, with her current last name being ''LNAB, daughter of X'' where ''X'' is the name of her father’s estate. An example might be the profile [[Calder-2| ''Calder-2'']] for Muriel Calder (1498-1575), daughter of Sir John Calder, 8th Thane of Calder. Her LNAB is Calder. Her current last name can either be ''Calder, daughter of Calder'' as her father’s daughter, or ''Campbell of Calder'', the territorial designation her husband took by becoming her father’s heir on his marriage to her. Her husband John Campbell, [[Campbell-190| ''Campbell-190'']], appears to have been married twice. His second wife Isabel Lamont, [[Lamont-1163| ''Lamont-1163'']], can be shown as either ''Isabel (Lamont) Campbell'' as she presently is, or ''Isabel (Lamont) Campbell of Calder'', because by the time she married John Campbell, he had already assumed his first father-in-law’s mantle as ''Thane of Calder'' which of course eventually became ''Cawdor''. *'''''The aim of this naming policy is to make the existing profile stand out in a surname search and thus reduce the chances of unnecessary duplication of profiles.''''' ====Members of the Scottish Nobility==== *'''''On every occasion, if a person is the holder of a title or territorial designation, in compliance with the Scottish Nobility sub-project policy, it should appear in this box.''''' If the policy changes, this guidance will change. If someone holds several titles, then only the most senior one should appear here, and others are referred to in the Biography. *Similarly, in respect of a married woman, whose husband owns a landed estate, she is invariably referred to as ''Lady X'', where X is the name of her husband’s estate, not his surname. If the married woman is the wife of a Peer, she is known by the female version of her husband’s peerage. *Only the title, or territorial designation, should be inserted in this field, separated by a comma immediately after the current last name (surname). ===Other Last Name(s) Field:=== *This is self-explanatory. And, if a woman has been married several times, then if possible, each married name prior to her final one, should appear. My advice is that if she was married more than 3 times, then this should be reflected in the biography. If a member of the Scottish Nobility was known by more than his or her most senior title, then such additional title(s) can be inserted in this field but it is preferable to just refer to them in the biography field. ===Suffix Field:=== *This should only be used for recognised items such as Orders and Decorations. The suffix ''Esq.'' has a specific legal meaning in Scotland, and is applied only to men who are ''Gentlemen''. Invariably, these are members of the untitled nobility, i.e. holders of coats of arms without a title. *It is not the practice in Scotland to put a suffix after a man’s name in order to indicate he is, for example, the sixth generation to hold that name, or a father (Snr, Sr), or son (Jnr, Jr), sharing the same names. This practice is commonly adopted in the USA. *It is also not the practice in Scotland to put a suffix after a man’s name to indicate he is (e.g.) the first holder of a title or territorial designation. For example, when Sir Walter Scott was elevated to the rank of Knight Baronet in 1820, he became Sir Walter Scott, 1st Baronet not Sir Walter Scott, Baronet 1st. ===Birth Date:=== *There are too many profiles where this is blank. '''A reasonable estimate should always be inserted in the absence of an actual, documented date.''' Common sense should apply. In Scots Law, boys could marry at 14, and girls at 12. With the exception of Henry VII’s mother, few women bore children before the age of 15. And, very few successfully bore them above the age of 45. If possible, check if there is a date of marriage, or marriage contract, for the parents. Base your estimate on that. The eldest son should normally be born within 5 years of the parents’ marriage. The youngest child cannot be born more than 9, or at most 10, months after the father’s death. And, absolutely no children can be born after the date of the mother’s death! ===Birth Place:=== *Locations can be confusing, especially if one is unfamiliar with Scottish geography. Also, place names, especially counties, can be tricky without an understanding of Scottish history. For example, Ross and Cromarty was only created in 1890. Any reference to that county before 1890 is not correct, and it would be either Ross-shire or Cromartyshire. Morayshire was for a long time known as Elginshire. Angus was known as Forfarshire. West Lothian was known as Linlithgowshire, and Midlothian as Edinburghshire. In addition, someone cannot have been born at a location which did not exist at the time. A man cannot have been born in a castle which was only erected by his grandson! *Referencing the [https://scotlandsplaces.gov.uk/ Scotlands Places] site is recommended ===Death date:=== *These are less important than birth date, but where known should be entered, even if using the ''before'' option. This can often be ascertained from the marriage record of a child where a parent is described as ''deceased'', or a person described as a ''widow'', or ''widower''. ===Death place:=== *The same comments apply as to the location of a person’s birth. ===Marriage date:=== *In the absence of a known date, a reasonable estimate should be given. Because, as with birth and death dates, it helps reduce the impossibility of parents marrying while one of them was still a child, or after the date of all their children’s’ births, with a few notable exceptions. If there is no marriage date, but there is a marriage contract, either use that date or mark it as ''after'' that date. ===Marriage Location:=== *The same logic applies as to birth and death locations. ===Biographical Details and Ancillary Matters:=== *There are Clan stickers and Project boxes. The former are the small stickers which should generally be used. '''''Project boxes should only be used on profiles where the project is the profile manager.''''' There is a standard set of clan designs and tartans which should be adhered to. Don't hesitate to ask for guidance about this, and all else. *Where a profile displays miscellaneous items, which are either simply wrong (e.g. a picture of a castle the individual never lived in), or a coat of arms which was the property of another person (remember, '''''there is no such thing as a clan or family coat of arms'''''), the Profile Manager should be contacted privately, and encouraged to remove them. If they remain after 7 days, then by all means, remove them. *Some profiles have a great deal of extraneous or irrelevant information that might not be to our taste. Unless it is factually misleading, or simply inaccurate, it is for the Profile Manager to decide whether to retain it or not. *The use of [[Template:Succession box| Succession Boxes]] help link profiles, and are to be encouraged. ===Sources:=== *Please encourage the use of good sources. While Family Search and online trees can be indicative, they are not primary sources and are open to plagiarism. This has the unhappy result of promoting inaccurate information. ===Research Notes:=== *These do not appear very often, and can be invaluable. They offer the Wikitreer a place to give an explanation in a factual manner as to why some comment or detail on the profile may or may not be correct. ===Acknowledgements:=== *Some profiles have these, and unless there is something factually incorrect, they should never be removed. They are a means of thanking someone for taking the time, putting in the effort of creating, or making a substantial contribution to the profile. ===Finally……………=== *Remember, all members of the Wikitree community are volunteers. In most cases, they genuinely believe what they are posting. Even if we know comments are totally incorrect, please share this information in as sensitive a manner as possible. Wherever possible, communicate your concern about content on a profile to the Profile Manager in a private message. Only post it on the face of the profile if you get no response or a negative response. *'''''If you need guidance, or wish to discuss the content of a particular profile, please contact Mark. Failing that, contact Amy or another team member.''''' ==Examples of Profile Names for Scottish Nobles:== ===[[Bethune-14| Bethune-14]]: Cardinal David Beaton, Archbishop of St Andrews=== :His LNAB was Bethune, but he was known as Beaton. Cardinal is an appropriate prefix, and his title was ''Archbishop of St Andrews''. So, his profile should be: :'''Prefix:''' Cardinal :'''First Name:''' David :'''LNAB:''' Bethune :'''Current Last Name:''' Beaton, Archbishop of St Andrews ===[[Mackenzie-905|Mackenzie-905]] Roderick Mackenzie, 1st Laird of Redcastle=== :His LNAB was Mackenzie. He became the 1st in the line of Mackenzies to own Redcastle, making his title 1st Laird of Redcastle. Scottish Barons were landowners, not peers. So his profile should be :'''First Name:''' Roderick :'''LNAB:''' Mackenzie :'''Current Last Name:''' Mackenzie, Laird of Redcastle :In his biography, it would be explained that he was the 1st Laird of Redcastle, on being granted the Barony. ===[[Mackenzie-1261| Mackenzie-1261]]: Kenneth Mackenzie, 1st Earl of Seaforth (Irish creation)=== :'''First Name:''' Kenneth :'''LNAB:''' Mackenzie :'''Current Last Name:''' Mackenzie, Earl of Seaforth :As numbers and symbols cannot be inserted in the Current Last Name Field, it should be made clear in his biography that he was created Earl of Seaforth as an Irish Peerage, in order not to be confused with the much earlier Earldom of Seaforth, which was granted to his ancestors as a Scottish Peerage. ===[[Moravia-10| Moravia-10]]: William Sutherland, 3rd Earl of Sutherland=== :'''First Name:''' William :'''LNAB:''' Moravia :'''Current Last Name:''' Sutherland, Earl of Sutherland :At the time of his birth, William’s family was known as ''De Moravia'' and under Wikitree project rules, the LNAB should ignore the''De''. During his lifetime, he and his brother more commonly used, and were referred to, by the surname ''Sutherland''. In his biography, it should be made clear that he adopted the surname Sutherland, and that on the death of his father, he became the 3rd Earl of Sutherland. ===[[Sutherland-3463| Sutherland-3463]]: Margaret Sutherland of Kinminitie=== :'''First Name:''' Margaret :'''LNAB:''' Sutherland :'''Current Last Name:''' Sutherland, Lady Artamford :It will be seen from her profile, Margaret became the wife of James Irvine, the 3rd Laird of Artamford. However, on marriage ,she did not become known as Margaret Irvine, as would be the modern practice. Since her husband was the Laird of Artamford, she became known as ''Lady Artamford''. Indeed, in Court of Session court papers, she was referred to as ''Margaret Sutherland, Lady Artamford''.

[[Category:Scottish Representative Peers|Scottish Representative Peers]] [[Category: Scotland Project Managed FSPs]] ===Scottish Representative Peers=== The 1707 Treaty of Union abolished the Parliament of Scotland and created the Parliament of Great Britain. Previously, all Scottish Peers had been entitled to sit in the Parliament of Scotland. At the time of the Union there were more than 130 Scottish peers and 170 English peers.[https://www.oxfordreference.com/display/10.1093/oi/authority.20110803100414485#:~:text=By%20the%20Act%20of%20Union,in%20the%20House%20of%20Lords. Oxford Reference - representative peers]; accessed 3 March 2024 At that period, the population of Scotland was approximately 1.2 million while the population of England was approximately 5.1 million[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_countries_by_population_in_1700 Wikipedia List of countries by population in 1700]; accessed 3 March 2024 so to unite all the peers in one house in Parliament would have given the Scots a disproportionate influence. It was therefore decided that Scotland should have 16 "representative peers" in each parliament. These peers were selected by "open election" rather than by secret ballot. Following the dissolution of each parliament a new ballot was to be held.[https://www.historyofparliamentonline.org/england-scotland-and-treaty-union-1706-08 England, Scotland and the Treaty of Union, 1706-08]; History of Parliament Trust; accessed 3 March 2024. Under the Peerage Act 1963 which came into effect in August that year, all Scottish peers were given seats in the House of Lords as of right, thus after that date no further Scottish representative peers were needed.[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Scottish_representative_peers Wikipedia List of Scottish representative peers]; accessed 3 March 2024 These representative peers, ordered by

The duo sit beneath the Latin words "Qualis in Qunatitate" (Quality over Quantity), and above the words "Nothing without Effort!". }} == Welcome to Team Seamróga agus Fòghnain == Team '''Seamróga agus Fòghnain''' symbolizes a special new Gaelic alliance here on WikiTree. It represents the unified efforts of the [[Project:Scotland|Scotland Project]]'s ''[[Space:Twisted_Thistles|Twisted Thistles]]'' and the [[Project:Ireland|Ireland Project]]'s ''[[Space:Team_Irish_Seanchaithe|Irish Seanchaithe]]'' to combine forces to improve the quality of all Scottish and Irish profiles on WikiTree, and those of Gaelic lineage worldwide. The ''Twisted Thistles'' and ''Na Seanchaithe'' will continue to participate in most thons, but once every year the two projects will combine to form Team ''Seamróga agus Fòghnain''. The team name combines the Irish word ''[https://www.teanglann.ie/ga/fgb/seamr%c3%b3g seamróga]'' (shamrocks) with the Scottish Gaelic word ''[https://www.faclair.com/ViewEntry.aspx?ID=0B73100CFE3F4BFF06501AC1B5CD2A49 fòghnain]'' (thistles), while ''agus'' means ''and'' in both languages. :'''Unsure how to pronounce our team name?''' :Seamróga - "Sham-row-gah" :agus - "ah-giss" :Fòghnain - "Foe-nine" Our team mascots, Sir Shamrock and Lady Thistle, symbolize this alliance. Sir Shamrock proudly wears a tam o' shanter sporting the unicorn (representative of Scotland), while Lady Thistle wears a leprechaun's top hat emblazoned with a hare (representative of Ireland). The goal of ''Seamróga agus Fòghnain'' is to improve as many Gaelic profiles as possible by adding a well written biography which is supported by as many reliable sources as we can find. Speed is ''not'' a factor, instead quality is of primary importance. Because we acknowledge, however, that all improvements are of value to our shared tree, members are free to work on profiles from their own watchlists if they prefer doing so. This team has two slogans :
''Quality over Quantity'' '''and''' ''Nothing without Effort!''

[[Category: Scotland Project Managed FSPs]] [[Category:Siol Alpin]] '''Siol Alpin''' is a family of seven Scottish clans that claim to trace their descent from [[MacEchdach-2|Alpin]], father of [[MacAlpin-11|Cináed mac Ailpín]], King of the Scots, then Picts, and of whom the Scots tradition considered the first King of the joint kingdom of Picts and Scots. The purpose of this research page is to compare the traditional claim and the documentary and genetic evidence that supports and/or refutes this tradition.

His son Kenneth [succeeded to his father's kingdom]. #Distracted by domestic wars and thereby weakened, the Picts were unable to resist Kenneth, son of Alpin, when he acquired their government in 843.Chalmers, George; ''Caledonia, or a historical and topographical account of North Britain from the most ancient to the present times with a dictionary of places chorographical & philological''; ( Paisley : Gardner, 1887); [https://archive.org/details/caledoniaorhisto01chal/page/212/mode/2up Vol I, pg. 213] #Alpin was killed in 836.Chalmers, George; ''Caledonia, or a historical and topographical account of North Britain from the most ancient to the present times with a dictionary of places chorographical & philological''; ( Paisley : Gardner, 1887);[https://archive.org/details/caledoniaorhisto01chal/page/352/mode/2up Vol I, pg. 353] which may be a miscalculation. According to Skene, it is stated in the Chronicle of Huntingdon, that in 834, the Scots encountered the Picts on Easter Day when many Pictish nobles were killed, and Alpin was victorious, and that on the 13th of the Kalends of August in the same year, he was defeated by the Picts and killed.Skene, William Forbes; ''Chronicles of the Picts, Chronicles of the Scots, and other early memorials of Scottish history''; (H. M. General Register House; Edinburgh, 1867); [https://archive.org/details/bub_gb_BYANAAAAQAAJ/page/n189/mode/1up Preface, pg. clxxxvii] #Chronicle of Dalriata, versions DFI ; Skene's Picts and Scots, pp. 149, 172, 288 ==Profile History== *Created as MacEchdach-2 on 25 Feb 2013 with no birth date, and a death date of 834, and name Alpin MacEchdach. Unsourced *The image of the church was added to the profile *The biography written by Catherine Evans for WikiTree, was added 8 June 2013. Several unrelated LDS events were added at the same time, as well as a list of the various GEDcom creations/merges, and some unreliable sources. At this same time, the birth date of 778 in Fordoun, Kincardineshire was added, as was the death date of 20 Jul and death location of Galloway, Dumfries-shire. Both are unsourced. The CLN was also changed at this time, to of Scotland. Parent profiles added: (Mac Áeda Find-1) and (Of the Picts-3) *A Nordic notice was posted on the profile, the LDS information was removed, as was the list of GEDcom contributions, on 1 Feb 2014. A Other Last Name of mac Echdach was added, and the biography written by Catherine Evans was removed. *The Nordic notice was removed 18 Jun 2015 *GEDcom junk/Ancestry sources removed on 18 Jun 2015, sources added *Middle Name and Nickname added 5 Aug 2015 *Information on the lineage, from Wikipedia, added 5 Aug 2015 *PPP added to profile 5 Mar 2020 *Research Note section added 1 Apr 2021 *Space page link added for this page on 14 Jun 2022 ==Recommendations== This is still being researched, in order to clearly sort out the two profiles. This page will be changing rapidly while research is conducted and recommendations are written. The current profile clearly represents two different men, with the dates and relationships clearly confused. My recommendation is that the existing profile remain as that representing the father of Kenneth, and that a second profile be created for Alpin, brother of Eochaid, who was the father of Aed Find. Unless someone finds something I missed, there's no evidence that Alpin, father of Kenneth... was the son of Aed Find and I propose that the father's profile be detached with a {{Disputed Parents|Father}} tag added to Alpin's profile. The new profile for Alpin, brother of Eochaid needs to be carefully researched before it is created to ensure there is no further confusion. I recommend that this profile also be brought under Scotland Project for management, to ensure that it doesn't create further issues. ==Sources==

[[Category: Scotland Project Managed FSPs]] [[Category:Scottish Clans, Needs Cleanup]] [[Category:Clan Spens]] directed from [[Space:Spence Family History|Spence Family History]] === The CLANS === Definition of the word ‘Clan’ The Gaelic word for ‘children’ is more accurately translated as ‘family’ in the sense in which the word clan became accepted in the Scottish Highlands during the 13th century. A clan is a social group whose core comprises a number of families derived from, or accepted as being derived from, a common ancestor. Almost without exception, that core is accompanied by a further number of dependant and associated families who have either sought the protection of the clan at some point in history or have been tenants or vassals of its chief. That chief is owed allegiance by all members of the clan, but ancient tradition nevertheless states that ‘the Clan is above the Chief’. Although Gaelic has been supplanted by English in the Lowlands of Scotland for nearly a thousand years, it is an acceptable convention to refer to the great Lowland families, like the Douglases, as clans, although the heads of certain families, such as Bruce, prefer not to use the term. Allegiance was generally given to a father’s clan, but Celtic tradition includes a strong element of descent through, and loyalty to, a mother’s line. In reality, the chief of a clan would ‘ingather’ any stranger — of whatever family — who possessed suitable skills, maintained his allegiance and, if required, adopted the clan surname. The origins of Scotland’s clans and of their distinctive dress are wrapped in controversy. Yet their story can be traced back with certainty to the middle of the 5th century, and to Ireland where the Scots lived. Here the earliest historical High King was known as Niall Noigiallach (of the Nine Hostages), whose descendants of the O’Neill dynasty expanded northwards into Ulster. As a result Fergus Mór of the little kingdom of Dalriada moved his seat of government from northern Ireland, and crossed the sea to found a new Dalriada for his Scots in the land that now bears their name. In 563 a prince of the house of O’Neill called Collum Cille (Dove of the Church) joined them there, and is remembered today as Saint Columba. A century later the Scots were organised in three principal kindreds from Ardnamurchan in the north to Kintyre in the south: the kindreds of Lorne, Angus and Gabrán. In the course of time these kindreds, and the dynasties of the Celtic church, proliferated into clans of mediaeval record. To the north and west of them lived the Picts, to the west and south the Britons, while their first serious encounter with Germanic peoples occurred early in the 9th century when the Viking long-ships appeared. The scots held their own against all these peoples. Their Gaelic tongue replaced Pictish throughout the Highlands; it replaced the Welsh tongue in large areas of south-western Scotland; it drove the Norse language from every island in the Hebrides. And when the Gaels were in the death-throes of their final struggle against another Germanic people, the English-speakers of the south, they gained their last and most spectacular victory. After every attempt had been made to destroy their ancient clan organisation and their distinctive dress, these were adopted as the proper emblems of all Scots throughout the world. The most distinctive garment which the Scots brought with them from Ireland, and which had probably been worn inb the reign of Niall, is called in Gaelic Léine. It was a form of a shirt which men wore of a length that ended a little above the knee. Probably it was generally made of linen, and although the earliest references describe it simply as light-coloured, it was probably of the yellow shade which led to the English description of it as a saffron shirt. There are ample descriptions of this garment throughout the 16th century, of which that of a French visitor in 1556 is typical: ‘They were no clothes except their dyed shirts and light woolen coverings of several colours, ‘certaines couvertures légères faites de laine de plusieurs couleurs.’ It was at about the same time that a cleric in the north of Scotland commented on this spartan attire in a letter to Henry VIII. ‘We of all people can tolerate, suffer and away best with cold, for both summer and winter (except when the frost is most vehement), going always bare-legged and bare-footed.’ There is no evidence that Scottish Gaels continued the Irish practice of marking the léine with stripes to indicate the rank of the wearer. A High King wore seven stripes, one of them purple. The Ollamh (chief man of learning) wore six, a striking reminder of the importance attached to scholarship. But in the 17th century the shirt gradually went out of use in Scotland, while the ‘coverings of several colours’ grew in size and significance. At the battle of Kilsyth in 1645 Montrose instructed his soldiers to put away their plaids and knot the ends of their shirts between their legs. But many of his men actually came from Ireland, while others from the west had perhaps not been affected by the ruin of the Irish linen export trade that resulted from the Elizabethan conquest. Meanwhile wool, a commodity that had been rare in the Highlands, was now becoming available to all. And so the rug grew into the ample plaid which a Highlander could pleat round his waist in many folds, draw over his head when it rained, and roll himself up in to sleep at night. It expanded in fact into a garment measuring five feet in width, and between twelve and fifteen feet in length. The belted plaid took the place of the léine as a covering for the lower half of the body. This had been long enough for the men of Montrose to be able to knot the ends between their legs for the sake of decency in 1645. The earliest portraits of men wearing the belted plaid show its apron reaching to about the same length — almost to the knee. Yet there is evidence that it by no means always did so. When William Sacheverell was appointed in 1688 to recover stores from the sunken Armada ship in Tobermory bay, he observed that a minimum of plaid was being worn below the belt. ‘It is loose and flowing, like the mantles our painters give their heroes. Their thighs are bare, with brawny muscles. Nature has drawn all her strokes bold and masterly; what is covered is only adapted to necessity . . . What should be concealed is hid with a large shot-pouch.’ This helps to explain why the logical French called the sporan, which is simply the Gaelic for a purse, a cache-sexe. In about 1730 another Englishman, an official of the Forfeited Estates Commission of the name of Burt, wrote comments on the way this dress was worn which confirm and amplify those of Sacheverell. ‘A small part of the plaid, which is not so large as the former, is set in folds and girt round the waist to make of it a short petticoat that reaches half way down the thigh, and the rest is brought obver the shoulders, and then fastened before, below the neck.’ He adds later: ‘The stocking rises no higher than the thick of the calf, and from the middle of the thigh to the middle of the leg is a naked space . . . and for the most part they wear the petticoat so very short, that in a windy day, going up a hill, or stooping, the indecency of it is plainly discovered.’ By this time the patterns woven into the plaids had already become elaborated into what are today called tartans. The original French word tartaine had no reference to design or colour, but defined a type of material. But it was already acquiring its new association by 1538, when it was used in the Lord High Treasurer’s accounts. James IV had abolished the Lordship of the Isles, and his son James V was continuing his aggressive policy towards Gaelic Scotland in an attempt to bring it at last within the effective jurisdiction of the Crown. James IV had learnt the Gaelic language: and the accounts show that James V adopted a form of Highland dress, a short Highland jacket of velvet, tartan trews, and the long shirt. ‘Heland tertane to be hoiss’ evidently refers to the kind of tight trousers or hose of which one actual example survives from before the Forty-Five, besides numerous portraits in which they are depicted. By 1730 Burt noticed: ‘Few besides gentlemen wear the trawze, that is, the breeches and stockings all of one piece and drawn on together; over this habit they wear a plaid, which is usually three yards long and two breadths wide, and the whole garb is made of chequered tartain.’ But there is no mention of a plaid in the 1538 accounts when James V adopted the dress of a Highland gentleman. There is increasing reference during this century, however, to the coloured mantle noted by Beaugué the Frenchman in 1556. In his Latin history published in Rome in 1578 Bishop Lesley wrote: ‘All, both nobles and common people, wore mantles of one sort (except that the noblese preferred those of several colours)’. Writing in his own incomparable Latin, George Buchanan, who possessed a Highlander’s knowledge, commented in 1581: ‘They delight in variegated garments, especially stripes, and their favourite colours are purple and blue. Their ancestors wore plaids of many colours, and numbers still retain this custom but the makority now in their dress prefer dark brown.’ It is a pity that the use of the word plaid depends upon James Aikman’s translation of 1827, rather than the direct testimony of Buchanan. The learned Robert Gordon of Straloch described the dress of Highlanders in 1594. They were still wearing the saffron linen shirt, but he described it as short. ‘In the sharp winter the Highland men wear close trowzes which cover the thighs, legs and feet.’ The summer saw the emergence of Highland dress as we know it today. ‘Their uppermost garment is a loose cloak of several ells, striped and party-coloured, which they gird breadth-wise with a leather belt, so as it scarce covers the knees.’ The proto-kilt and the proto-tartan appear to have evolved at roughly the same moment. They had done so at about the time when most of the clans had assumed their final identifications and alignments. The bagpipe and the Gaelic language were about to give unprecedented expression to clan loyalties, triumphs and disasters. What part, if any, did those stripes and party-colours play as symbols of a clan spirit? If they had signified anything in 1411, Lachlann Mór Mac Mhuirich would have exploited the fact in his incitement to battle at Harlaw. Yet between that date and this the actual sett of a tartan has developed something of the mystique of the Colour of a regiment, and the question is, just when and how it did so. Pride in the dress itself is an entirely different matter. A mediaeval knight was doubtless proud of his horse and arms. But his precise coat-of-arms was in the first place a form of military identification, as the tartan had not yet become by the time of the last, decisive clan confict, the battle of Culloden. By 1594, indeed, Lughaidh O’Clery distinguished Hebrideans even from their nearest kinsmen the Irish by their dress. ‘They were recognised among the Irish soldiers by the distinction of their arms and clothing, their habits and language, for their exterior dress was mottled cloaks of many colours.’ The distinction was lost upon foreigners when Mackay’s regiment fought in the Thirty Years’ War. Five soldiers were depicted in 1631, wearing identical tartan, though they carry the belted plaid in various ways and one has adopted tartan pantaloons. The news-sheet calls them Irish, as English-speakers called them likewise in their own country by this time. If they felt any loyalty to their uniform tartan, Gaelic literature is silent on the subject, and so is the unique record of their services which was published in 1637. John Taylor the ‘water poet’ paid a visit to Braemar in 1618 and described the Highlanders ‘with a plaid about their shoulders, which is a mantle of divers colours.’ But it was the dress itself, rather than these colours, that was the object of pride. ‘As for their attire, any man of whatsoever degree that comes among them must not disdain to wear it; for if they do then they will disdain to hunt.’ A hundred years later Burt remarked the same. ‘The whole people are fond and tenacious of the Highland clothing, as you may believe by what is here to follow.’ He then describes a woman who reprimanded a Highlander for wearing Lowland costume. By this time there is evidence of the standardisation of setts. But it appears that a particular pattern had become common to a particular locality, and was only associated with aclan because different clans predominated in each district. Martin Martin testified in 1703 to the development of the weaver’s skill. ‘The Plad wore only by the men, is made of fine wool, the thread as fine as can be made of that kind; it consists of divers colours, and there is a great deal of ingenuity required in sorting the colours, so as to be agreeable to the nicest fancy. For this reason the women are at great pains, first to give an exact pattern of the Plade upon a piece of wood, having the number of every thread of the stripe on it.’ Alas, not a single sett stick has survived the proscription of Highland dress after the Forty-Five. ‘Every isle differs from each other in their fancy of making Plaids, as to the stripes in breadth and colours. This humour is as different through the mainland of the Highlands in so far that they who have seen those places is able, at the first view of a man’s Plaid, to guess the place of his residence.’ Although nobody remarked on this before Martin in 1703, it could by then have been true for a very long time. This highly developed weaving craft of the women of the Highlands could not have been introduced suddenly in a thousand scattered homes. It might have been true when O’Clery wrote his observations in Irish Gaelic in 1594, although he did not allude to it. From 1587 the annual rent to the Crown from Islay consisted of sixty ells of black, white and green cloth. The lands from which this tribute was raised were occupied during almost the entire period in which it was paid by the Macleans, and to this day the tartan now called Hunting Maclean is of precisely those colours. On the other hand the step taken by Sir Ludovic Grant of Grant, between the date of Martin’s account and the 1715 rebellion, appears to offer contrasting evidence. He ordered that all his tenants should provide themselves with Highland dress made of red and green tartan ‘set broad-springed’. These colours predominate in the modern Grant tartan, but it was described again as ‘red and green dyce’, which sounds closer to the sett ordained by sir Iain Moncreiffe of that Ilk for his name. Anyway, nearly a dozen family portraits of the time of Sir Ludovic Grant’s son attest that his attempt at standardisation had not been supported even by his own family. Tartan was of sufficient importance by the time of the 1745 Rising that its aftermath saw a severely shaken government rush through an Act of Parliament in 1746 which banned the wearing of ‘tartan, kilt and plaid’ by all civilian men and boys other than landowners. That Act was not repealed until 1782, and in the ensuing period of restoration for Scotland’s shattered pride a series of cultural traditions were revived or invented which served to confuse the historical realities concerning what was to become the national dress for all Scotland. Before the Forty-Five and the proscription of Highland dress, it had undergone a final transformation. In 1743 a set of six engravings was made of soldiers of the Black Watch, showing how they wore the belted plaid in the traditional manner. But in about 1730 an Englishman called Thomas Rawlinson conducted iron smelting in Glengarry. He wore Highland dress himself, as the water poet had once recommended, and he noticed the inconvenience of being unable to remove the upper half when it had become drenched by rain, without being stripped of the lower half also. He accordingly divided the garment into two halves, which also enabled him to tailor the lower into the permanently pleated kilt. Iain MacDonnell, who had succeeded his father as Chief of Glengarry in 1720, adopted the same dress and he was soon followed by others. The proposition that it was an Englishman who invented the kilt has been too much for many Scotsmen to swallow, but the part which Rawlinson played is sufficiently well attested. Anyway, he did not invent the kilt. He merely noticed a convenient improvement that could be made, as foreigners are so apt to do in any society. It was called the féileadh beag (little plaid) to distinguish it from the entire féileadh bhreacain (plaid of tartan). Breacan is Gaelic for party-coloured cloth, and by the time its use was forbidden it had become the rallying symbol in an outburst of indignation. Alasdair MacDonald, greatest of 18th-century Gaelic bards, composed his famous eulogy on the Breacan Uallach, the gallant tartan. He was a Jacobite, but Rob Donn Mackay in the Hanoverian Reay country expressed no less indignation over the abolition of the Breacan. The ground was prepared for a wave of enthusiasm once the ban was lifted, which was to give resounding celebrity to the achievement of generations of anonymous Highland women. The intricate designs which they had evolved on simple hand-looms, to give colour as well as warmth to life in a chilly land, were adopted and developed by the Lowland Scots, manufactured by machinery, and raised to the status of their country’s most colourful emblems. Whatever doubt there may be about the earlier focus of enthusiasm, it had now shifted decisively from Féileadh to Breacan. Féileadh is Gaelic for Folded, and thus has the same meaning as Kilt, which means Quilted. But Breacan stands for the actual setts, which were now recovered where possible from the days before the proscription, and newly designed for surnames that had never been associated with a tartan before. Sir Walter Scott believed that this enthusiasm had begun in the Lowlands as early as 1707, when hatred for the Union with England expressed itself in the first blush of tartan there. Obviously his own poetry and novels played a powerful part in extending the vogue, and the state visit of George IV in 1822 increased the prestige of a Highland Chiefship in fashionable society. Some exceedingly odd ones have been invented since then, though not odder than the notion that Chiefs are the fount of clan tartans. For this the unsuccessful experiment of the Grant Chief provides little authority. More books have established clan tartans than any chief: and while Queen Victoria ordained a Johore tartan, such essentially Highland clan names as Currie and MacCrimmon have simply been overlooked. It is the same in the Lowlands, where tartans have been distributed since the 19th century. The Turnbulls were as unruly a border clan as the Armstrongs yet they possess no tartan. The lack of any authority such as that of the Lord Lyon in matters of heraldry has contributed to this. But this merely helps to emphasize the strength of the emotion which seized upon the symbol of the tartan to express a sense of kinship which has lasted in Scotland ever since the kindreds of the earliest Scots of Dalriada blossomed into clans. Note on Scottish Names There is no means of standardising names in a country in which so many were first recorded in a language of such entirely different roots as English and Gaelic possess. Iain and John are interchangeable, and so are Alasdair and Alexander, and many others. There are several examples of a handful of names in bowdlerised English which could derive from several quite different Gaelic originals. It is known, however, that Beaton and MacBeth (and some other English forms) all derive from Mac Bheatha. In this case the name Beaton has been selected; and Currie and Thomson have been used in similar circumstances. After the word Mac (Son) a capital letter has generally been used. But Mac Aoidh has been anglicised as Mackay, and Mac an Toisich as Mackintosh or Macintosh. In such cases it would obviously be ridiculous to make a capital of a letter that ought not to be there at all. Often the anglicised Irish forms are nearer to the Gaelic original than the Scottish ones: such as Magee for Mackay, and Behan for Bain. But the forms predominant in Scotland have naturally been preferred. ————————————————— :*[[Space:Abercromby|Abercromby]], [[Space:Agnew|Agnew]], [[Space:Alpin|Alpin]], [[Space:Anderson|Anderson]], [[Space:Anstruther|Anstruther]], [[Space:Arbuthnott|Arbuthnott]], [[Space:Armstrong|Armstrong]], Arthur (see MacArthur) :*[[Space:Baird|Baird]], [[Space:Bannerman|Bannerman]], [[Space:Barclay|Barclay]], [[Space:Bethune|Bethune]], [[Space:Blackadder|Blackadder]], [[Space:Borthwick|Borthwick]], [[Space:Boswell|Boswell]], [[Space:Boyd|Boyd]], [[Space:Boyle|Boyle]], [[Space:Brodie|Brodie]], [[Space:Broun|Broun]], [[Space:Bruce|Bruce]], [[Space:Buchan|Buchan]], [[Space:Buchanan|Buchanan]], [[Space:Burnett|Burnett]], [[Space:Burns|Burns]] :*[[Space:Cairns|Cairns]], [[Space:Calder|Calder]], [[Space:Cameron|Cameron]], [[Space:Campbell|Campbell]], [[Space:Campbell of Cawdor|Campbell of Cawdor]], [[Space:Carmichael|Carmichael]], [[Space:Carnegie|Carnegie]], [[Space:Cathcart|Cathcart]], [[Space:Charteris|Charteris]], [[Space:Chattan|Chattan]], [[Space:Chisholm|Chisholm]], [[Space:Clarke|Clarke]], [[Space:Cochrane|Cochrane]], [[Space:Colquhoun|Colquhoun]], [[Space:Colville|Colville]], [[Space:Craig|Craig]], [[Space:Cranstoun|Cranstoun]], [[Space:Crawford|Crawford]], [[Space:Crichton|Crichton]], [[Space:Cumming|Cumming]], [[Space:Cunningham|Cunningham]] :*[[Space:Darroch|Darroch]], [[Space:Davidson|Davidson]], [[Space:Dewar|Dewar]], [[Space:Douglas|Douglas]], [[Space:Drummond|Drummond]], [[Space:Dunbar|Dunbar]], [[Space:Duncan2|Duncan]], [[Space:Dundas|Dundas]], [[Space:Durie|Durie]] :*[[Space:Elliot]], [[Space:Elphinstone|Elphinstone]], [[Space:Erskine|Erskine]] :*[[Space:Farquharson|Farquharson]], [[Space:Fenton|Fenton]], [[Space:Fergusson|Fergusson]], [[Space:Forbes|Forbes]], [[Space:Forrester|Forrester]], [[Space: Forsyth|Forsyth]], [[Space:Fraser|Fraser]], [[Space:Fraser of Lovat|Fraser of Lovat]] :*[[Space:Galbraith|Galbraith]]

[[Category: Scotland Project Managed FSPs]] [[Category: Aberdeenshire, Scotland]] ==St. Comb's== St. Combs is a small fishing village in Aberdeenshire, immediately southwest of Inverallochy, near Fraserburgh, which has existed since at least the 17th Century. It takes its name from a church to St Colm or Columba that used to exist in the area. There is considerable evidence of local habitation by early man in and around St. Combs. Somewhat to the southwest lies the Catto Long Barrow and a number of tumuli (burial mounds). St. Combs railway station opened in 1903 and closed in 1965. It was the terminus of a short branch line from Fraserburgh. [[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/St_Combs]]

[[Category: Scotland Project Managed FSPs]] ==Strichen== Strichen is a village sitting on the A981, connecting to New Deer 7.2 miles (12 km) to the southwest and Fraserburgh 8 miles (13 km) to the north-northeast, and the B9093, connecting it to New Pitsligo about four miles due west. It is situated on the River Ugie at the foothills of Mormond Hill. The Strichen White Horse is constructed of quartz on Mormond Hill, some 1500 m northeast of Strichen. The village got its name from Lord Strichen. There is considerable evidence of local habitation by early man in and around Strichen. Strichen Stone Circle is found near Strichen House on publicly accessible land. Further south lies the Catto Long Barrow and a number of tumuli (burial mounds).

It also reaches the Atlantic in the north and west. The county has some of the most majestic scenery in all of Scotland. The landscape is a mixture of towering sea cliffs, ancient mountains, and rolling meadows. Sutherland’s name derives from the Norse word '''Sudrland''', meaning ''South Land'', which can cause some confusion among those who aren’t familiar with the area’s history. It was originally part of Norwegian Viking territory, under the rule of the '''jarl''' (the equivalent of an earl) '''of Orkney'''. From Orkney, Sutherland was in fact ''South Land''. Much of the population today can be found along the coasts, in small coastal towns and villages. ===Settlements in Sutherland=== This list is not complete. *Achriesgill, Sutherland *Altnaharra, Sutherland *Armadale, Sutherland *Assynt, Sutherland *Bettyhill, Sutherland *Bonar Bridge, Sutherland *Brora, Sutherland *Clashmore, Sutherland *[[:Space:History of Dornoch, Sutherland| Dornoch]] *Drumbeg, Sutherland *[[:Space:History of Durness, Sutherland| Durness]] *Embo, Sutherland *Evelix, Sutherland *[[:Category:Farr, Sutherland| Farr]] *[[:Space:History of Golspie, Sutherland| Golspie]] *Helmsdale, Sutherland *Inchnadampth, Sutherland *Invershin, Sutherland *[[:Category:Kildonan, Sutherland| Kildonan]] *Kinbrace, Sutherland *Kinlochbervie, Sutherland *[[:Category:Lairg, Sutherland| Lairg]] *Lochinver, Sutherland *Melvich, Sutherland *Portgower, Sutherland *Portskerra, Sutherland *Pulrossie, Sutherland *[[:Space:History of Rogart, Sutherland| Rogart]] *[[:Space:History of Rosehall, Sutherland| Rosehall]] *Scourie, Sutherland *Skelbo, Sutherland *Skerray, Sutherland *Stoer, Sutherland *Strathy, Sutherland *[[:Space:History of Tongue, Sutherland| Tongue]] ===Parishes in Sutherland=== *[[:Category:Assynt Parish, Sutherland| Assynt Parish, Sutherland]] *[[:Category:Clyne Parish, Sutherland| Clyne Parish, Sutherland]] *[[:Category:Creich Parish, Sutherland|Creich Parish, Sutherland]] *[[:Category:Dornoch Parish, Sutherland| Dornoch Parish, Sutherland]] *[[:Category:Durness Parish, Sutherland| Durness Parish, Sutherland]] *[[:Category:Farr Parish, Sutherland| Farr Parish, Sutherland]] *[[:Category:Golspie Parish, Sutherland| Golspie Parish, Sutherland]] *[[:Category:Kildonan Parish, Sutherland| Kildonan Parish, Sutherland]] *[[:Category:Lairg Parish, Sutherland| Lairg Parish, Sutherland]] *[[:Category:Loth Parish, Sutherland| Loth Parish, Sutherland]] *[[:Category:Rogart Parish, Sutherland| Rogart Parish, Sutherland]] *[[:Category:Tongue Parish, Sutherland| Tongue Parish, Sutherland]] ===Highland Clearances=== Sutherland is well known for the Highland Clearances. In the 18th and 19th century, tenants were evicted from their homes and farms by the landowners to make room for large sheep farms. The Sutherland Estate, which made up about two-thirds of the county, has been recorded as the most extensive removal in the Highlands. These occurred in 1812, 1814, and again between 1819 and 1820. The population was resettled in coastal villages, however, being farmers and not fishermen, many voluntarily left Scotland altogether. Some went to Caithness, while the majority emigrated to Canada, the United States, or Australia. ===Resources=== '''The Imperial gazeteer of Scotland; or, Dictionary of Scottish topography'''

Identities at the individual parish level if baptism, marriage, or death records exist from years prior to 1855, and if records exist, then how thorough those records are.

[[Category: Scotland Project Managed FSPs]] ==Tarland (Gaelic: ''Turlann'') == Tarland is a village in Aberdeenshire, and is located five miles northwest of Aboyne, and 30 miles west of Aberdeen. Tarland is home to the Culsh Earth House, an Iron Age below-ground dwelling known as a Souterrain. Souterrains were used to store food and the Culsh Earth House probably served as a community cellar. Just south of Tarland is the Tomnaverie Stone Circle, a 4000-year-old recumbent stone circle. [[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tarland]]

[[Category: Scotland Project Managed FSPs]] [[Category:Scotland, Royalty]] {{Succession box2 | title = [[:Space:The First Interregnum|The First Interregnum]] | years = 19 March 1285/6 - 17 November 1292 | before = [[Eriksdatter-10|Margrete Eriksdatter]] | after = [[Balliol-8|John (Balliol) of Scotland (abt. 1249 - 1314)]] }} The First Interregnum in Scotland, which lasted from either 19 March 1286 or 26 September 1290 until 17 November 1292. The exact start date depends on whether Margaret, Maid of Norway was officially queen before her death in 1290 or whether Alexander III was the last monarch. The Interregnum lasted until John de Balliol was crowned King of Scots. A crisis arose with the death of Margaret, Maid of Norway as there was no obvious heir to the throne of Scotland. In the ensuing vacuum four guardians were appointed to govern the country. They were: William Fraser, Bishop of St Andrews; Robert Wishart, Bishop of Glasgow; John II Comyn, Lord of Badenoch; and James Stewart, 5th High Steward of Scotland. Thirteen candidates presented themselves as the next king. They included John de Balliol, Robert de Brus, Lord of Annandale, Floris V, Count of Holland, Patrick Dunbar, 8th Earl of Dunbar, William de Vesci, Baron de Vesci, William de Ros, Baron de Ros, Robert de Pinkeney, Nicholas de Soules, Patrick Galithly, Roger de Mandeville, John Comyn, Lord of Badenoch, John Hastings, 1st Baron Hastings, and Eric II, King of Norway. Edward I of England, who also had a claim to the throne through Malcolm III's daughter Edith, the wife of Henry I of England, was asked to arbitrate the claims; he did so, but forced the Scots to swear allegiance to him as overlord.

Civil Square, Tranent, East Lothian }} The goal of this project is to identify and honour those who were victims in the Massacre of Tranent in 1797. While much has already been written regarding the Massacre of Tranent itself, the aim of this project is to concentrate on the people as opposed to the events of the day, to identify those who were involved and find a link to their families, rather than leaving them as only footnotes to a tragic page in Scottish history. The political and historical context of the massacre has not been well studied, so this will also be examined. === Summary === On 29 August 1797, following a protest in Tranent against the 1797 Militia Act, at least 22 people were killed. [https://archive.org/stream/tranentitssurrou02mnei#page/138/mode/2up Tranent and Its Surroundings. Ecclesiastical,Historical & Traditional. By P. McNeill, Tranent.

Tranent: Peter McNeill. 1884. p138-158.] The East Lothian archives at the John Gray Centre in Haddington note: ''It's clear that the authorities were unprepared for the scale of the protest, that they attempted to press ahead after dismissing the populace’s appeal out of hand, that the military on hand was out of control very quickly, and that most of those killed and injured had taken no part in the events in Tranent itself.'' [http://www.johngraycentre.org/2015/07/31/making-connections/ John Gray Centre Blog, Making Connections] On the 18th anniversary of John Cadell's death, his son, Hew Francis Cadell. Esq, wrote in his diary: "20th January 1832.... I have had little time to pay thought to my father, John, who died this day 18 years ago. However he is likely not best remembered by the poor souls of Tranent, who will not look fondly on his actions during the riots and killings in 1797. A shameful moment and I never felt the same about him after that." Hew Francis Cadell. Esq, personal papers held at Inveresk House, Musselburgh === The Political Background=== Before the Great Reform Act of 1832, [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Reform_Act_1832 Wikipedia, entry on The Representation of the People Act 1832] the political system in the British Isles was unrepresentative and undemocratic with the outcome of general elections decided solely by the influence of the nobility and landed classes. Following the French Revolution of 1789, [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/French_Revolution Wikipedia, entry on The French Revolution] pamphlets began to circulate stressing the requirement for reform to move towards a representative parliamentary democracy and Thomas Paine's 'The rights of man', published in 1792 also raised the awareness of the people. [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rights_of_Man The Rights of Man by Thomas Paine] Meanwhile, in Scotland in July 1792, The Friends of the People Society was formed and attracted a wide membership. [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Society_of_the_Friends_of_the_People#Friends_of_the_People_in_Scotland Wikipedia, entry on The Friends of the People Society in Scotland] However, those in power had no wish to relinquish it and on 24 August 1793, one of the champions of the reform movement, Thomas Muir of Huntershill, was arrested and later sentenced to 14 years transportation. [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thomas_Muir_of_Huntershill Wikipedia, entry on Thomas Muir of Huntershill] Amongst this background, discontent began to grow amongst the ordinary non-enfranschised classes. === Militia in Scotland before 1797 and the Auld Alliance=== In 1698, although in personal union with England under King William II of Scotland and III of England, the Kingdom of Scotland was still an independent country. It was feared by many that Scotland was in danger of being invaded by England, its more powerful southern neighbour and Andrew Fletcher of Saltoun, a Member of the Scottish Parliament, recommended that a Scottish militia be created to aid in the country's defence.

The oldest alliance in the world
General de Gaule, 23 June 1942. }} Scotland had been a friend and ally of France for centuries. In 1942, while in Edinburgh, General de Gaule described the alliance between Scotland and France as "the oldest alliance in the world" and added: ''In every combat where for five centuries the destiny of France was at stake, there were always men of Scotland to fight side by side with men of France, and what Frenchmen feel is that no people has ever been more generous than yours with its friendship''. More recently, in 2011 an academic suggested that the alliance may never have formally ended. [http://www.manchester.ac.uk/discover/news/franco-scottish-alliance-against-england-one-of-longest-in-history/ Franco-Scottish alliance against England one of longest in history] Even after the Union of 1707 and the creation of the Kingdom of Great Britain, [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Acts_of_Union_1707 Wikipedia entry on Acts of Union 1707] the British Militia Act 1757 did not apply to "that part of the Kingdom of Great Britain named Scotland". The close ties between Scotland and France and the possibility of a revolutionary French landing in Scotland receiving local support made the raising of militia regiments throughout Scotland an urgent priority. === The Militia Act of 1797=== The Militia Act of 1797 empowered the Lord Lieutenants of Scotland to raise and command militia regiments in each of the "Counties, Stewartries, Cities, and Places" under their jurisdiction. [http://www.scan.org.uk/VirtualVault/Borders/act2.htm Anno Tricesimo Septimo George III Regis. CAP. CIII. An Act to Raise Militia in that part of the Kingdom of Great Britain named Scotland 19 July 1797] However, the attempt to impose the act in one district of Haddingtonshire (East Lothian) ''was handled so badly that it is recalled to this day as the Tranent Massacre. The militia was intended for home service but as this could include deployments to the south of England or even Ireland desertions and failure to deploy were endemic: the Haddington(shire) Local Militia didn’t form until 1808''. [http://www.johngraycentre.org/east-lothian-subjects/war-battles-military/the-military-system-in-east-lothian-1790-1850/ John Gray Centre Blog, The Military System in East Lothian 1790–1850] In 1797, the County of Haddingtonshire (East Lothian) was split into four districts. District Four was a mining area and comprised the parishes of Pencaitland, Salton, Humbie, Ormiston, Tranent, Prestonpans and Gladsmuir. Men between the ages of 19 and 23 were to be balloted for militia service. Lists of those eligible were complied by local officials, often the parish schoolmaster and those concerned were summoned to appear before the Deputy Lieutenants of the County at Tranent by means of notices posted on the doors of the parish churches. Those who wished to express their opposition were also invited to attend. === The Petition === {{Image|file=The_Massacre_Of_Tranent_1797-1.jpg |align=r |size=m |caption=An Uncooperative Person
Jackie Crookston. }} The summonses led to protests against the Act that were led by Jackie Crookston and included the wives and families of those who were to be balloted. On 29 August 1797, a petition was delivered to four Deputy Lieutenants of the Country who were assembled at John Glen's Inn at Tranent to draw ballots to select local inhabitants for service in the militia. The document was signed by about thirty people in circular or "Round Robin" format and read: ''Prestonpans, 28th August 1797.'' ''To the honourable gentlemen assembled at Tranent for the purpose of raising 6000 militiamen in Scotland.'' ''Gentlemen,—The following are the declarations and resolutions to which the undersigned do unanimously agree :'' #''We declare that we unanimously disapprove of the late Act of Parliament for raising- 6000 militiamen in Scotland.'' #''That we will assist each other in endeavouring to repeal the said Act.'' #''That we are peaceably disposed ; and should you in endeavouring to execute the said Act urge us to adopt coercive measures, we must look upon you to be the aggressors, and as responsible to the nation for all the consequences that may follow.'' #''Although we may be overpowered in effecting the said resolution, and dragged from our parents, friends, and employment, to be made soldiers of, you can infer from this what trust can be reposed in us, if ever we are called upon to disperse our fellow-countrymen or to oppose a foreign foe.'' {{Image|file=The_Massacre_Of_Tranent_1797-6.jpg |align=r |size=m |caption=First page of the Riot Act, (1715). }} The petition was summarily dismissed by the four Deputy Lord Lieutenants, who threatened the bearer of being guilty of a flagrant breach of the law. John Cadell then proceeded to read the Riot Act. This proclamation ordered the dispersal of any group of more than twelve people who were ''unlawfully, riotously, and tumultuously assembled together'' and gave them one hour to disperse, otherwise they would be guilty of a felony punishable by death. [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Riot_Act Wikipedia entry on Riot Act] ===The Massacre === When the news that their petition would not be considered had spread, the women and children, who had been leading the protest retired to the back of the crowd, but they were not quick enough. After a stone had been thrown at the assembled troops, Captain Finlay of the Cinque Ports Light Dragoons ordered his men to draw their swords and ride down the crowd. ''This brutal order was most cruelly performed. Old men, women, and children, unable to get out of the way, were savagely crushed beneath the hoofs of the chargers.'' Meanwhile, a group of Pembrokeshire cavalry, ''all apparently the worse of liquor'', rode up to the inn where the balloting had been taking place. The sergeant was so drink-taken that he fell off his horse. Seeing the drunken sergeant hit the ground, Major Wight assumed that his fall had been due to a thrown stone and shouted at the troops "Why don't you fire?" The soldiers immediately started firing on the crowd and at least six people were killed. The protestors dispersed from Tranent to the surrounding countryside but were pursued by the Cinque Port Light Dragoons, who went on a rampage through the area and attacked people randomly, including several who had not been involved in the protest and were simply going about their daily business. One eye-witness wrote to his wife that six people were killed in the town, and another 15 corpses had been discovered in the fields. More bodies were expected to be found after the corn was cut and many people had been injured. === The Aftermath === The relatives of those murdered, backed by the Court of Justiciary, lodged a case for the prosecution of those responsible for the massacre, before the Lord Advocate. He took no action, describing those who had been killed as ''such a dangerous mob as deserved more properly the name of an insurrection''. Robert Dundas letter to Portland, 26 December 1797 (Logue) In 1835, the Rev. Adam. Blair, minister of Ferry-Port-on-Craig and one of those attacked wrote: ''I was examined by the sheriff-substitute in Haddington, along with many others, with a view to the prosecution of the Lieutenancy. This is said to have been set on foot by some of the Whigs of the time; but the matter was dropt.'' On the other hand, the common people were, at the insistence of the Lord Advocate, indicted and accused ''in his Majesty’s interest, for the crimes of mobbing, riot, and others''. The then Lord Advocate of Scotland was none other than Robert Dundas of Arniston (1758 – 1819), grandson of William Grant, Lord Prestongrange (1701–1764) and nephew of [[Dundas-266| Henry Dundas]], 1st Viscount Melville (1742 - 1811) "The Uncrowned King of Scotland". === Those Who Were Killed === According to Archibald Rodger, who wrote to his wife in Edinburgh on 30 August 1797, at least 21 people people had been killed including his sister. He wrote: ''There were 6 persons shot dead on the spot, of which my sister was one, and she was shot within a door of a house in the town. The number of the wounded is not yet ascertained, but I am just now informed that fifteen corpses were found in the corn-fields, and it is not known how many more may be found when the corn is cut, as the Cinque Ports Cavalry patrolled through the fields and high roads to the distance of a mile or two miles round Tranent, and fired upon with their pistols, or cut with their swords, all and sundry that they met with. Several decent people were killed at that distance, who were going about their lawful business, and totaly unconcerned with; what was going on in the town.'' ''I am informed that this was unprovocked on the part of the people, for they assembled peaceably by public intimation from the Lord Lieutenant and his deputies to state their objections, if they had any, to the roll ; but when they presented their petitions and certificates they were totaly rejected, especially by Mr Cadell, who told the people he would receive none of them, as they were determined to enforce the Act, and as the people insisted on being heard, he with his own hands pushed them from the door ; upon which some boys and women threw several stones at the windows. The assistance of the cavalry was immediately called for, and ordered to charge with sword in hand; and then followed the bloody business above related. But my hand can scarcely hold the pen longer to give you any further details.—I am, your loving husband, (Signed) A R . Tranent, August 30.'' Those who were killed include: # [[Adam-1225 |John Adam]], a collier, killed on the Haddington road while walking to Tranent to purchase necessities for his wife who was sick in bed after giving birth. John Adam was the great (x6) grandfather of [[Donaldson-973|Crown Princess Mary of Denmark]]. #Stephen Brotherston, killed when walking on the Ormiston road, about a mile from Tranent. # [[Crookston-8 | Joanna or "Jackie" Crookston(e)]], married to William Ross and the mother of four young children. She led the women protestors crying "No Militia!" and beating a drum. She also confronted Captain Finlay of the Cinque Ports Dragoons. She was killed, but her body was not found until some time later, bringing the death toll to at least 22 people. There is a statue to her in the Civic Square in Tranent. #George Elder, killed in the street in Tranent. He is difficult to identify as there were six people named George Elder born in East Lothian between 1745 and 1777, five of whom could have been alive at the time of the massacre. #William Hunter, shot on a house-top, adjoining to the inn. William Hunter was a very common name in East Lothian, with 54 births between 1730 and 1797. #William Kemp, aged 11, killed while walking on the road to Ormiston, a mile from Tranent. He may have been the William Kemp who was baptised on 31 July 1785 in Pencaitland, the son of Charles Kemp and Janet Richardson. #William Laidlaw, a farmer's servant, shot while working in the fields. He may have been the William Ledlaw who was baptised on 26 October 1770 in Yester, the son of William Ledlaw and Elizabeth Wilson. #William Lawson, a carpenter killed on the road from Ormiston to Tranent. William Lawson was a common name with fifteen being born in East Lothian between 1748 and 1790. #Alexander Moffat, servant to William Hunter, brewer in Pencaitland, killed in a field by the Pencaitland road.

There were five people named Isabel, Isabell or Isobell Roger born in East Lothian between 1749 and 1788, three of them in Tranent. # William Smith, killed on a stair in Tranent, opposite the inn. There were 25 people named William Smith born in East Lothian between 1731 and 1790. ===Those Who Were Injured === #Mary Allan, aged seventeen years of age, was chased through the streets and shot at. She fainted and was left for dead. The bullet missed her, but she received a severe wound on her forehead as a result of her fall. She might be Marrion Allan baptised on 22 January 1782 in Humbie, daughter of John Allan and Christian Brown. They had an elder daughter of the same age, baptised on 28 May 1780, who presumably died in infancy. #Adam Blair, a school-boy and native of Penston, who was stabbed when walking peaceably through a field to the north of Tranent and left for dead. He later became the Rev. Adam Blair, minister of Ferry-Port-on-Craig. He died on 28 November 1840. #John Blackie, a carter, shot and slashed by dragoons while walking peaceably along the Haddington road, near Annfield. There were eight people named John Blackie born in East Lothian between 1736 and 1790. #Mrs Carnegie of the house named Haldane's. Mr Carnegie was absent and Mrs Carnegie was assaulted by dragoons. #Janet Forsyth, aged sixteen years was returning to her father's house after working in a field near the village. She was pursued by dragoons and shot in the shoulder. The bullet remained there all her life. She was aunt to a later postmaster at Tranent, Mr John Forsyth. She is believed to be the Janet Forsyth, daughter of Robert Forsyth and Janet Nielson, who was baptised in Tranent on 04 February 1781. #William Kedzlie, who was working in a field at the back of Glen's Inn was shot through the ear. Kedzlie was the grandfather of Mrs Andrew Wilson, Tranent. He may have been the William Kedzlie, son of John Kedzlie and Helen Brook who was baptised at Prestonpans on 10 June 1764. #William Montgomery, aged over 70, was attacked while working close to where John Adam was killed on the Haddington road. An officer intervened and saved his life. #David Reid who lived for many years at Elphinstone, but spent the latter part of his life in Tranent. He was a baby on the day of the massacre. A number of miners from Elphinstone with their wives and little children had taken refuge in Peggy Robertson's dwelling, Wallace's two-storied block in the Coal Neuk. A dragoon burst into the house and seeing a lump hidden under the bed clothes, plunged his sword several times into the bed. One of the child's little fingers was severed at the second joint. Not identified. #Alexander Robertson, servant to James Clark, farmer at North Winton, attacked by dragoons while in a field on the southeast of Tranent. There were 11 people named Alexander Robertson born in East Lothian between 1736 and 1781. #Robert Ross, mason in Pencaitland, attacked when walking upon the high-road near Buxle. There were six people named Robert Ross born in East Lothian between 1742 and 1781, two of them in Pencaitland. #William Tait, aged seventeen, shot at and stabbed by four dragoons. He is difficult to identify as there were five people named William Tait born in East Lothian from 1779 to 1780. #An unnamed child was sitting on its father's shoulders clapping its hands when it was shot at and grazed on the head by the passing bullet, which hit the door lintel next to the coal office of Durie & Nisbet. #The unnamed farmer's wife at Adinstone was shot at by dragoons. While the ball missed her, the powder flash singed her face and nearly put one of her eyes out. ===Those Arrested=== Thirty-six people were arrested and imprisoned in the tolbooth of Haddington. However many were subsequently released as the only witnesses against them were soldiers whose evidence was often contradictory. Those arrested included: #John Connel, coallier in Penston. Took refuge in the house of Francis Wilson, merchant until taken away by Captain Finlay and his troops. Not identified. #Francis Donaldson, coallier at Fallside. Took refuge in the house of Francis Wilson, merchant until taken away by Captain Finlay and his troops. Possibly the father or brother of William Donaldson, below. #William Donaldson, coallier at Fallside. Took refuge in the house of Francis Wilson, merchant until taken away by Captain Finlay and his troops. He is believed to be the William Donaldson who married Margaret Howie on 02 April 1797 in Tranent. He named his eldest son Francis, so the Francis Donaldson above may have been his father or brother. #[[Duncan-7995 | Alison Duncan]] known as Elly, servant to John Davidson, coalier in Elphingston. Taken prisoner by Captain Finlay, imprisoned in the tolbooth of Haddington and tried in Edinburgh. The Edinburgh Magazine, or Literary Miscellany for September 1797, p314. #[[Duncan-7994 | David Duncan]] a miner, father of Alison Duncan and one of the leaders of the protesters. He is referred to as "John" Duncan in McNeill's account but simply as "a man named Duncan" in others. He attempted to have a discussion with Major Wight but was chased by the Major and their troops and arrested. He was outlawed for not appearing at his trial in Edinburgh, and his bailbonds declared to be forfeited. #Edward Henderson, from Penston. Took refuge in the house of Francis Wilson, merchant until taken away by Captain Finlay and his troops. Not identified. #James Henderson, from Penston. Took refuge in the house of Francis Wilson, merchant until taken away by Captain Finlay and his troops. He is difficult to identify as there was more than one James Henderson living at Penston at that time. #John King, coallier from Penston. Took refuge in the house of Francis Wilson, merchant until taken away by Captain Finlay and his troops. He is believed to be John King, born 03 October 1770 in Penston, son of John King and Janet Duncan. On 05 April 1791 he married Janet Wilson, whose eldest sister had married Matthew Smith, who was another member of the party that had taken refuge in Francis Wilson's house. #Robert Mitchell, servant, or late servant to Andrew Blair, corn-dealer, in Tranent. There were 14 people named Robert Mitchell, or variants thereof, born in East Lothian between 1733 and 1788. According to his testimony, he declared that he was above the age (19 - 23) ascertained by the act for service in the militia. This would mean that he was 24 or older and on this basis he may have been either Robert Mitchell, baptised on 02 July 1773 in Gladsmuir, the son of James Mitchell and Marrion Burn, or Robert Mitchell, baptised on 21 June 1772 in Pencaitland, the son of John Mitchell and Margaret Lawson. #John Nicolson, servant to Mr. Park, at Windymains. He stated that he had been summoned to appear at Tranent as his name was on the list of people to be balloted on the door of Humbie church. After arriving in Tranent and seeing what was happening there, he took shelter in the house of James Irvine, a cow-keeper, and only left after the sounds of shots had ended. He was arrested and taken prisoner when on his way home. There were 14 people with variants of the name John Nicholson born in East Lothian between 1734 and 1786. #William Reid, coallier. Took refuge in the house of Francis Wilson, merchant until taken away by Captain Finlay and his troops. There were 12 people named William Reid, or variants thereof, born in East Lothian between 1732 and 1790. He may have been a brother-in-law of Francis Wilson, in whose house he took refuge. #Neil Reidpath, servant, or late servant to George Dickson, tenant in Lampockwells. Not identified. #Mathew Smith, coallier from Penston. Took refuge in the house of Francis Wilson, merchant until taken away by Captain Finlay and his troops. He may be the Matthew Smith who married Elizabeth Wilson on 03 August 1775 in Gladsmuir. Elizabeth's youngest sister Janet Wilson had married John King, who was another member of the party that had taken refuge in Francis Wilson's house. #Francis Wilson, merchant in Tranent. He declared that he had given shelter to William Reid, coallier; John King, coallier, in Penston; John Connel, coallier in Penston; Mathew Smith, coallier in Penston; James Henderson and Edward Henderson, both from Penston ; William Donaldson, coallier at Fallside, and Francis Donaldson, also coallier at Fallside. He declared that they all entered his house an hour before the troubles began, and remained there until taken away by Captain Finlay and his troops. It is possible that Francis Wilson was the brother-in-law of John King and Mathew Smith - their wives Elizabeth and Janet Wilson had a brother named Francis, born 03 August 1763 who was living in Tranent in 1794. Francis Wilson's wife was named Margaret Reid, so William Reid may also have been a brother-in-law. However, this Francis Wilson had been a Coalier on 04 February 1787. Could he have changed from digging coal to selling it? #The farm at Adinstone was attacked by dragoons and the farmer, his wife, his brother, two servants, and two children, who were all completely unaware of events at Tranent, were carried off as prisoners. In addition: #John Johnstone, the printer of the Scots Chronicle, had an action raised against him by the Lieutenancy of the County of Haddingtonshire (East Lothian) for a libel after he published an account of the events that did not agree with the official version of those in authority. ===Others mentioned === #Andrew Blair, corn-dealer, in Tranent. His servant, Robert Mitchell, was arrested. #James Clark, farmer at North Winton. His servant, Alexander Robertson was attacked by dragoons while in a field on the southeast of Tranent. #John Davidson, coallier in Elphingston. Alison or "Elly" Duncan, one of those arrested, was his servant. #George Dickson, tenant in Lampockwells. His servant, Neil Reidpath, was arrested. #John Glen. Proprietor of the inn at Tranent where the balloting took place. #William Hunter, brewer in Pencaitland. His servant, Alexander Moffat was killed by the road near Pencaitland. #James Irvine, a cow-keeper. John Nicolson, servant to Mr. Park, at Windymains took shelter in his house. #Mr. Park, at Windymains. John Nicolson, one of those arrested, was his servant. #Mr. Pringle, shop-keeper at Tranent. Alison or "Elly" Duncan, one of those arrested, had been sent by her mistress, Mrs Davidson, to get some sarken cloth. #[[Selkirk-96| Elizabeth Selkirk]] is believed to be the Tibby Selkry, whose house in Tranent Elly Duncan said she spent her time while the massacre was taking place. #William Symington, coal-grieve in Pencaitland. Was with Robert Ross, mason in Pencaitland, when the latter was attacked upon the high-road near Buxley. A dragoon rode up to William Symington, and threatened to kill him, but he was saved by an officer. #An unnamed brother of William Smith who was killed was pursued by dragoons and hid in some bushes, escaping with nothing but bruises. #Three unnamed people were watching the events from an upper flat when a dragoon fired at them.

The 7th Marquis was the great-grandson of the 2nd Marquis and had inherited the title on 16 November 1787, succeeding his first cousin once removed who had died without an heir.

The family were descended from lawyers and clergymen in Edinburgh and Perthshire, but only became landed gentry at the time of his father, David Anderson (1707 - 1786) who was able to purchase Inchyra in Perthshire. This David Anderson's second son, David Anderson of Saint Germains (1750-1825) served in the East India Company. He was a close friend of Warren Hastings, the first de facto Governor-General of India from 1772 to 1785, who was accused of corruption and impeached in 1787. David Anderson returned from India in 1785 with £50,000 which he used to purchase the Saint Germains estate in East Lothian, a house that had originally been owned by Lord Seton. Saint Germains passed to his son, David Anderson (1791 - 1869) and then to his grandson, Lt-Col. James Warren Hastings Anderson (1836- 1896). He sold Saint Germains in 1874 and purchased instead Bowerhouse near Dunbar. The childless David Murray Anderson (1867 - 1944), who inherited Bowerhouse, sold it in 1939. In 1911, his younger brother, Major Robert Warren Hastings Anderson (1875 - 1969) purchased Northfield House in Colinsburgh, Fife, which remains in the family. Saint Germains was purchased by the Scottish brewing family, the Tennents, before being used an convalescent home for RAF airmen during the WWII.

They note that in both The Hunger Games and The Massacre of Tranent, young people were balloted upon the orders of a remote and autocratic government in order to be taken away from their families and fight for a cause that was not their own. In both, the figurehead for the resistance was a strong young woman; in the Hunger Games, it was Katniss Everdeen, the Mockingjay, while in Tranent, it was Jackie Crookston crying "No Militia", beating her drum, and confronting Captain Finlay of the Cinque Ports Light Dragoons. In both, the government had divided the area into Districts. Katniss Everdeen was from District Twelve while Jackie Crookston was from District Four; District Twelve and District Four were both mining districts. However the endings to the stories were very different.

These included the lands of Nisbet and in 1640 Molly Watt of Nisbet was summoned by the Presbytery of Biggar and accused of witchcraft. On 03 March 1642 the Presbytery applied to Sir William, as Superior of Nisbet, or to Alexander Menzies of Culterallers Secundus, the Bailie, to incarcerate Molly Watt or to deliver her to the Sheriff of Lanarkshire.

On 13 July 1642 a proposition had been made to erect a new parish of Gladsmuir. On 16 January 1650 Edinburgh Presbytery approved the proposal and on 28 February 1650 a decreet to that effect was given by the Commission for Plantation of Kirk. However, due to the Bishops War and the subsequent Wars of the Three Kingdoms these recommendation were not followed through. A new church had been built at what was subsequently known as Old Kirk, and was ready for regular supply by 09 February 1660. The first three entries in Gladsmuir parish's Old Parish Register of Births & Baptisms were recorded on 10 January 1688. However, it was not until 18 November 1690 that the United Presbytery finally recommended that the Decreet should be made effectual. On 10 August 1691 Gladsmuir parish was disjoined from those of Haddington, Aberlady, and Tranent. On 29 July 1692 Gladsmuir parish was officially erected by the Commissioners of Teinds. A new church was built in 1695 at Gladsmuir (behind the present Gladsmuir church now ruined and known as the Old Kirk of Gladsmuir - not to be confused with Gladsmuir Old Kirk to the south east).

==The Saltire== '''Scotland's national flag - The Saltire (St Andrew's Cross) also known as''' '''Bratach nàiseanta na h-Alba or more simply The Saltireis''' ===Origin and History of the Flag=== The Saint Andrew cross is one of the oldest national flags of all, dating back at least to the 12th century, although the honour of the oldest flag among the modern nations generally falls to the flag of Denmark. The national flag of Scotland is the Saltire. It is made up of a great white cross which spans diagonally across the flag on a blue background. This was the supposed shape of the cross that St. Andrew was put to death on and therefore the flag is also known as the 'Cross of St. Andrew'. ===The Saint Andrew's Cross=== . Who was Saint Andrew? Andrew was one of Christ's disciples and legend has it he was active in Scythia, and crucified on a cross with diagonal beams. His remains were preserved, and (again by legend) Constantine wanted to remove them to Constantinople. A Greek monk was warned by an angel of this intent, and instructed to take them to the ends of the Earth. This he did, until he was shipwrecked in Scotland. Some of Andrew's relics were known to have been brought to St. Andrews, Scotland, by the Bishop of Hexham in 733 AD (Hexham Abbey is also dedicated to St. Andrew). In 1160 AD, St. Andrews Cathedral was erected, and the saint's relics were kept there until the cathedral was destroyed during the Reformation. here's also a second theory about this detail, as some historians believe that St. Andrew was crucified by the Romans in Greece, where this diagonal cross was more commonly used. The next part of the legend behind the flag of Scotland takes place over 700 years later, in 832 AD. It's said that the night before the Pictish King Angus II, led his forces into battle against the English King Aethelstans' army of Angles and Saxons, King Angus had a vision or dream. In this vision, he saw St. Andrew and was promised triumph in battle. Early the next morning Angus' troops were awestruck by the sight of a huge white Saltire cross shining against the background of a bright blue sky. This 'omen' led the Scottish troops to victory and the Saltire found it's place in Scottish history. The earliest record to the Saint Andrew's cross flag dates from 1165 AD, where reference is made to a 9th Century battle. This was known in the 16th Century, although no record of the original source remains today. ===Significant Chronology of the Flag=== *1180: The oldest extant record of the St. Andrews cross flag is on a seal in St. Andrews, where it is used as a religious, not a national, emblem *1286: the St. Andrews cross was first known to be a national emblem of Scotland *1385: every Scots soldier used a saltire on his uniform (often used on black, not blue - the background colour seems to have been of less importance) *1388: the Standard of the Earl of Douglas used a St. Andrews cross and a lion *1503: the first certain use of a plain St. Andrew's Cross flag - but the field was red, not blue (the Vienna Book of Hours). *1512: the Lord High Treasurer's accounts mention the use of blue bunting *1542: the first certain illustration of the St. Andrew's Cross on a blue field as we have it today (armorial of Sir David Lindsay). *Reign of James IV: flagship Great Michael flew a flag with the St Andrews *cross and on the fly a red lion on yellow *1588: Scottish ship illustrated flying three saltires *1606: James VI (Scotland)/James I (England) combined the Scottish and English *flags into the union flag of Great Britain *1707: Queen Anne continued using James VI/I's design. A Scottish version is also known, with the saltire over the St. George's cross *1801: the modern union flag introduced. * 1942: it was forbidden to fly national flags at Colditz, but the Scots avoided the prohibition by inventing a new country dance, namely the Reel of the Fifty First. *1970's: the Scottish saltire became much more prominently used in Scotland *1 July 1999: the union flag and the saltire were both used at the opening of the Scottish Parliament. Normally, though, only the Scottish saltire is flown. *Here is some additional information on the early St Andrew's cross from Perrin *1385: The ordinances for its use on soldier's uniforms read: 'Item every man French and Scots shall have a sign before and behind, namely a white St Andrew's Cross, and if his jack is white or his coat white he shall bear the said white cross in a piece of black cloth round or square'. *Two quotes from the Accounts of the Lord High Treasurer of Scotland *1512: Payment for a roll of blue say (woollen bunting) for the banner of a ship 'with Sanct Androis cors in the myddis'. *1540: Delivered to be three ensigns for the ships sixteen 'elnis' red and yellow 'taffites'. Delivered to be the crosses thereof, four 'elnes' half 'elne' white 'taffities' of Genoa. '''Also see''' [http://www.crwflags.com/fotw/flags/gb-scotl.html Scotland Flags]

'''WALLACE TRIAL TRANSCRIPT''' '''Sir William Wallace's Execution''' William Wallace was victorious at the battle of Stirling Bridge. However, his co-commander Andrew Murray died soon afterward, leaving Wallace alone as Guardian of the Kingdom to face a superior English force under Edward I himself at the battle of Falkirk in 1298. He lost. His credibility ruined, Wallace resigned the Guardianship, but did not give up the fight. He never surrendered to Edward and Edward always excepted him from any offers of clemency. Having served Scotland abroad by diplomacy in France, Wallace returned to Scotland. On 3 August 1305 he was betrayed to the English and captured at Ralph Ra’s Toun, Modern name Robroyston. On 23 August, he was brought before a bench of noblemen in Westminster Hall. Then, a long and accurate indictment was read against him detailing all his military victories and the murder of many English prisoners-of-war. It mattered little to the bench, no doubt acting on Edward's direct orders. He was not allowed to speak, to defend himself or his actions and the sentence was read. Wallace did try to speak out at one point. Records show that he yelled out that he admitted all the charges against him except treason. How could he be guilty of high treason if he had never sworn allegiance to the King of England? This defence was valid but of little avail to the bloodthirsty bench of medieval English judges. Revenge mattered more than justice. The sentence of death was read and Wallace was quickly led outside and tied to a team of horses, where he was pulled to a field outside of the city walls, jeered along the way, onto the grounds of the St. Bartholomew Hospital, where he was executed. A massive crowd cheered on as the executioners first hanged him until he was semi-conscious. Then he was tied down and, while still alive, his genitals were cut off and his stomach opened. His intestines were pulled out and burned, all while he still lived. Finally and mercifully, he was beheaded. "A cruel yet fully deserved death," wrote an observer. Edward was not yet finished with Wallace. As an added deterrent, he ordered Wallace's body cut in four. Wallace's head was impaled on the spikes at London Bridge, another part of his body went to Newcastle, a district Wallace had destroyed in 1297–8 and the rest went to Berwick, Perth and Stirling (or perhaps Aberdeen), as a warning to the Scots.. For the crimes of sacrilege to English monasteries, his heart, liver, lungs and entrails were cast upon a fire. '''What follows comes from an 18th-century transcript of a medieval manuscript from the Sir Robert Cotton collection, which was lost in a fire in 1731. It is a contemporary record of Wallace's 'trial' and sentence in London before English court acting on behalf of a king whose authority Wallace never recognised. It is a translation from the original Latin.''' William Wallace, a Scot, and born in Scotland, a prisoner for sedition, homicides, plunderings, fire-raisings, and diverse other felonies came and, after the same justices had read out how the aforesaid lord the King had in hostile manner conquered the land of Scotland over John Balliol, the prelates, the earls, the barons and other enemies of his of the same land, in forfeiture of the same John, and by the conquest of him had submitted and subjugated all the Scots to right of ownership and his royal power as their King, he had received in public the homages and pledges of the prelates, the earls, the barons and very many others, and he had made his peace to be proclaimed throughout the whole of the land of Scotland. He had appointed and set up the Guardians of that land, appointing the sheriffs, the provosts, the bailies and other ministers of his, in his place, to maintain his peace and give justice to all whomsoever according to the laws and customs of that land. The aforesaid William Wallace, forgetful of his fealty and allegiance, raised up all he could by felony and premeditated sedition against the same lord the King, having united and joined to himself an immense number of felons, and he feloniously invaded, and attacked the Guardians and ministers of the same King, feloniously and against the same lord the King's peace, insulted, wounded and killed William de Heselrigg, sheriff of Lanark, who the appointments of the said King in the regular meeting of the county court, and afterwards in contempt of the same king without reason fought against the same sheriff whom he had killed. Thenceforth with the entire multitude of those who adhered in arms to him and to his felony, he invaded the towns, the cities and the castles of that land, and had his letters [orders] sent throughout the whole of Scotland, as if they were the letters of the superior of that land. He held and appointed parliaments and conventions after all the Guardians and ministers of the aforesaid lord the King of the land of Scotland had been evicted by William himself, and unwilling to restrain himself to so much wickedness and sedition, decreed to all the prelates, earls and barons of his land who adhered to his party, that they were to subject themselves to the fealty and dominion of the king of France, and they were to press for help towards the destruction of the kingdom of England. Taking some also from his accomplices with him he invaded the kingdom of England, as in the counties of Northumberland, Cumberland and Westmorland, and all whom he found there who were in the fealty of the King of England, he feloniously put to death in various ways. He feloniously and seditiously slaughtered religious men and monks dedicated to God, and burnt and laid waste churches constructed for the honour of God and the saints, together with the bodies of the saints and other relics of them that had been honourably collected therein; he spared no-one who spoke the English language, but afflicted all, old men and youths, wives and widows, children and babes in arms with a more grievous death than could be considered. And so, every day and every hour, he seditiously and feloniously persisted in contriving the death of the same lord the King, and the destruction and the manifest weakening of the crown and his royal majesty. And it is clear that after such outrageous and horrible deeds, the aforesaid lord the King, together with his great army, had invaded the land of Scotland and had defeated the aforesaid William, who was bearing his standard against him in mortal warfare, and other enemies of his, and had granted his true peace to all from that land and had mercifully taken the aforesaid William Wallace back into his peace, the said William seditiously and feloniously, whole-heartedly and undauntedly persevering in his above noted wickedness, disdained to submit himself to the aforesaid lord King's peace and to come forth to it, and so was publicly outlawed in the court of the same lord the King as traitor, robber and felon, according to the laws and customs of England and Scotland. It is clearly both unjust and in disagreement with English laws and it is held true that anyone thus outlawed and placed outside the laws and not afterwards restored to his peace, is committed to the forfeiture of his own status or accountability. It is considered that the aforesaid William, for the open sedition which he had made to the same lord the King by felonious contriving, by trying to bring about his death, the destruction and weakening of the crown and of his royal authority and by bringing his standard against his liege lord in war to the death, should be taken away to the palace of Westminster as far as the Tower of London, and from the Tower as far as Allegate [Aldgate], and thus through the middle of the city as far as Elmes, and for the robberies, murders and felonies which he carried out in the kingdom of England and the land of Scotland he should be hanged there and afterwards drawn. And because he had been outlawed and not afterwards restored to the King's peace, he should be beheaded and decapitated. And afterwards for the measureless wickedness which he did to God and to the most Holy Church by burning churches, vessels and shrines, in which the body of Christ and the bodies of the saints and relics of the same were wont to be placed together, the heart, liver, and lung and all the internal [parts] of the same William, by which such evil thoughts proceeded, should be dispatched to the fire and burned. And also because he had committed both murders and felonies, not only to the lord the King himself but to the entire people of England and Scotland, the body of that William should be cut up and divided and cut up into four quarters, and that the head thus cut off should be affixed upon London bridge in the sight of those crossing both by land and by water, and one quarter should be hung on the gibbet at Newcastle upon Tyne, another quarter at Berwick, a third quarter at Stirling, and a fourth quarter at St John's town [Perth] as a cause of fear and chastisement of all going past and looking upon these things &c. Translated by J. Russell from Documents Illustrative of Sir William Wallace, his Life and Times, ed. Joseph Stevenson, Maitland Club, 1841.

[[Category:Witch Trials]] [[Category: Scotland Project Managed FSPs|Witches]] ==Overview== This team will attempt to document the life stories of the Scottish women and men who, throughout the sixteenth through the eighteenth centuries, were accused of witchcraft. We will not be researching the witchcraft trials, but recording the lives of as many of these indivduals as possible. We believe that accusations of witchcraft were a way of controlling members of society who were perceived as dangerous or dissident to the established order. The stereotypical witch was most often a woman, "...an independent adult woman who did not conform to the male idea of proper female behavior."Larner, Christina. ''Was Witch-Hunting Woman-Hunting?'' Witchcraft Reader, London: Routladge (2002), p. 273. Frequently they were among the more vulnerable members of society: widows, unmarried women, midwives and healers, and women with natural abilities such as second sight, precognition, etc.; but sometimes they were also influential and socially prominent women. Although those arrested for practicing witchcraft were overwhelmingly female, a number of men were also accused of this crime. What all these individuals shared was having a nontraditional role which marked them as socially deviant.Garrett, Clarke. ''Women as Witches: Patterns of Analysis.'' Articles on Witchcraft, Magic, and Demonology: Witchcraft, Women, and Society. New York: Garland Publishing (1992), p. 18 Because they did not conform to society's expectations, they were each seen as a threat. Over time, witchcraft became associated with pre-Christian magical practices that were thought to be inherently evil and which were associated primarily with women. Men who also practiced forms of magical divination (such as astrology) were considered educated and their use of magic was 'scientific' and highly regarded at many royal courts. Women were not only accused of practicing witchcraft, however. More often, they were accused of ''being'' witches, and thereby of being controlled by evil forces. These individuals were our ancestors, and we want to tell their stories. For all of the women and men whose executions were recorded but whose individual names were not entered into the record books, and for those who were entered into the records simply as "certain persons," "unnamed witches," "eleven old women" or "a great number of people," we hope that this project is a way to honor their memories as well. ===Purpose=== Our intention is to create a list, using all of the data available to us, of every person in Scotland who was thought to be a witch (whether formally charged with witchcraft or not). Maintaining this list will be an ongoing effort, as new names will be added whenever more information is discovered. We are choosing to organize these names by the region of Scotland in which each person lived, in the hope that this will make it easier for future researchers to locate their own ancestors. ===Goals=== The ongoing focus of the team will be (first) to determine whether each person on our list already has an existing profile on WikiTree. If so, that profile will be linked to the list and, if necessary, sources will be added to it and the bio expanded. The [region]xxx witch category will be added to the profile so the team will be able to keep track of it, and a special recognition sticker will be placed on each profile. Second, if it is determined that no profile currently exists, one will be created after appropriate research has been done to determine whether there are existing profiles for family members that it can be linked to. This may be time-consuming, and will require meticulous and creative investigative skills. ===Lists Currently in Progress=== *[https://www.wikitree.com/wiki/Space:Highlands_and_Islands_Witches Highland and Islands Witches] *[https://www.wikitree.com/wiki/Space:Grampian_Witches Grampian Witches] *[https://www.wikitree.com/wiki/Space:Strathclyde_Witches Strathclyde Witches] *[https://www.wikitree.com/wiki/Space:Southern_and_Borders_Witches Southern and Borders Witches] *[https://www.wikitree.com/wiki/Space:Central_and_East_Witches Central and East Witches] *[https://www.wikitree.com/wiki/Space:Lothians_Witches Lothians Witches] * [https://www.wikitree.com/wiki/Space:Profiles_of_Scotland_Accused_Witches Suggested Profiles Needing to be Updated or Created] === Witchcraft Trials of Scotland: Tracing the Roots === The Scotland Project Witchcraft Team is also studying the events leading to the late 1500s and early 1600s witchcraft trials. Our goal is to bolster the Scotland Project's mission as a hub for genealogical research, deepening member engagement and understanding of this pivotal part of Scotland's history. Our research into these precursor events may be seen here: [https://www.wikitree.com/wiki/Space:Precursor_Events Witchcraft Trials of Scotland: Tracing the Roots]. ===Categories and Sticker=== All profiles which are linked to the list of Witches of Scotland must be assigned to one of the following categories: #Scotland, Highlands and Islands Witches #Scotland, Grampian Witches #Scotland, Strathclyde Witches #Scotland, Southern and Borders Witches #Scotland, Central and East Witches #Scotland, Lothians Witches The team's sticker should also be placed on each profile: {{Scotland Sticker|witchcraft}} ===Membership=== :'''Team Co-Leaders:''' [[Perkins-11725|Clyde]] and [[Stevens-17832|Jen]] :'''Team Members:''' *[[Baxter-4158|Jacqueline Baxter]] *[[Crawford-15512|Amy Gilpin]] *[[Madison-125|Bobbie Hall]] *[[Stevens-17832|Jen Hutton]] *[[Mason-10934|Sarah Mason]] *[[Perkins-11750|Clyde Perkins]] *[[Ruddock-364|Jackie Prentice]] *[[Cain-1665|Marsha Richardson]] *[[Penman-567|Elizabeth Russon]] :'''To join us:''' *This team is open to anyone who is a member in good standing of The Scotland Project.

[[Category: Scotland Project Managed FSPs]] Wikipedia [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Turriff] ==Turriff (Scottish Gaelic: ''Torraibh'' / ''Baile Thurra''; Scots: ''Turra'')== Turriff is the ninth largest town in Aberdeenshire, with a population of 4,804 in 2011. It lies on the River Deveron, about 166 feet (51 m) above sea level The Knights Templar appear to have had a base in the area, and a nearby site is still known as "Temple Brae". Turriff was notable as the scene of the very first engagements of the Wars of the Three Kingdoms (1639–51). Early in 1639, the Marquis of Huntly assembled his forces here, and then went to Kintore in lower Aberdeenshire, eventually marching from there to Aberdeen itself. Historically, Turriff was an important center for agricultural trade, with its mart being mentioned in the mid-19th Century ''Second Statistical Account of Scotland'' as one of the largest in the country. The mart ceased operation in December 1989, having been eclipsed by the newer Thainstone Mart at Inverurie. At one time, the town was served by the Banff, Macduff and Turriff Junction Railway.

[[Category: Scotland Project Managed FSPs]] [[Category:Viscounts in the Peerage of Scotland]] '''Viscounts in the Peerage of Scotland''' Vice-Comes, or Viscount, was a title formerly applied to the Sheriff of a county. It was first used as a title of nobility when King Henry VI created John, Baron Beaumont, Viscount Beaumont by Letters Patent dated 12 February 1440. Since then all Viscountcies have been created by patent. Originally conceived as a means of advancing Barons, afterwards it was frequently created with the barony. In modern times the Viscountcy has been conferred without a Barony, as in the case of Viscount Combermere, Viscount Sidmouth, Viscount Halifax, Viscount Cross, etc. [[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Category:Extinct_viscountcies_in_the_Peerage_of_Scotland 1]]

[[Category: Scotland Project Managed FSPs]] ==Westhill== Westhill is the fourth largest town in Aberdeenshire, with a population of 11,220. It is approximately 7 miles west of the city of Aberdeen. The creation of Westhill was the idea of local solicitor Ronald Fraser Dean in 1963. The new settlement of Westhill was created on the old farming land. Since construction of the first houses in 1968, Westhill has undergone a gradual expansion, much of which is tied to the NorthEast's oil and gas economy. In 2007/8 a major expansion of the industrial estate brought several thousand workers to the area. Most of these are in specialist sub-sea engineering oil service companies, making Westhill a world centre in sub-sea engineering. The name Westhill was created in 1859 when John Anderson from Strichen bought the adjoining small estates of Wester Kinmundy and Blackhills. Both of these names were very old, dating back to at least the 16th Century, but Anderson seems not to have liked them. He therefore created the name Westhill from the other two names. This is recorded in the Register of Sasines December 2, 1859. Wester Kinmundy and Blackhills were established either side of a geographical area known as 'The Clash', a marshy bog, historically listed as being between Brodiach/Borrow(ed)stone and (Now Kirkton of)Skene. It is commonly thought the remnants of this area are still apparent, but now named Denman Park. [[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aberdeenshire]]

[[Category: Scotland Project Managed FSPs]] ==Woodside First Aid Post Disaster, Paisley, Renfrewshire== Hundreds of Luftwaffe bombers attacked the town of Greenock on the River Clyde on the nights of 5th, 6th and 7th May 1941. The bombers were attacked by fighters from 141 Squadron, based at Ayr Airfield. This scattered the formations of the bombers, causing some to dump their bombs at random. In the early hours of the morning of 6th May, the bombers were intercepted by fighters, taking their flight path over Paisley. At around 2 a.m. two large parachute landmines were released from a Heinkel-111 bomber. The Woodside First Aid Post was at that time treating a number of people injured when a tenement in West Campbell Street had been hit earlier.Buddies' War 1939 - 1945 by James Meikle Smith The First Aid Post itself was then struck by a direct hit from one of the parachute mines, killing 92 people.

If you are working on a specific task, please list it here: #promoting the profiles of those bearing the name Young on Wikitree (see [[Space:Young_Name_Study|Young Name Study]]), #ensuring entries appearing on Wikitree are as accurate as possible, correcting mistakes once spotted, #encouraging interest in and study of the surname Young in Scotland, #promoting the use of DNA testing to connect the diaspora with its Scottish origins (see [https://www.familytreedna.com/groups/youngdna/about Young Surname DNA Study]. ==Clan History== The families of the name Young, currently do not have a Chief. Clans and families who used to have a Chief with a coat of arms but no longer do, have been referred to as 'armigerous,' however, the Standing Council of Scottish Chiefs has decided to not use this term.Bruce Durie, Your Scottish-American Ancestry, Special Limited Edition (Scotland: Gath Askelon Publishing, 2018), p. 29. On the topic of Clan vs. Family, Dr. Bruce Durie notes that "although a number of surname societies have chosen to incorporate the word "Clan" in their titles, this shoud not be taken to connote that the surname does actually constitute a Highlands or Borders Clan in Scotland, as opposed to a Lowlands Family, House, etc." He goes on to note that "there is still no official, generally-accepted list of clans and families, and the various bodies which could issue such a thing have, perhaps understandably, shied away from it, realising the conflict it might cause." Bruce Durie, An Ordinary of Arms, vol. III 1971-2017 (Scotland: Lulu.com, 2022), p. x. The present-day Youngs of Scotland is an inclusive organization inviting all branches of the surname Young, from Border Clan to Lowlands Families to known Houses of Young, to join in a united effort to research, preserve and promote the legacy of this ancient family name. [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Early_modern_period '''Early Modern Period'''] The only record of a group of Youngs living in a tribal or clannish manner is that of the Border Youngs of east Roxburghshire. The historical Chief of the Clan Young is unknown.Young, Douglas A. L. Youngs of Scotland: For He Loved His Surname Best in All Scotland. Markham, ON: Stewart Publishing and Printing, 2010, p. 52. By the 1600s, the branch of the family at Auldbar Castle had become the most prominent branch and are accepted by many as the Chiefly line. It is unclear if the family was recognized by the Crown as Chiefs of the Name Young .Ibid, p. 53. The branch of the Young surname that is considered by many as the chiefly line is of the Youngs of Forfar, Dundee, Seaton and eventually Auldbar.Ibid, p. 54. See [[Young-9196|John Young (abt.1497-1583)]] and his son [[Young-24520|Peter (Young) Young of Seaton (1544-1628)]].
