Who here has Scot blood in them....

[Jory]

.... and what Clan do you belong to?

Macintosh

 

[Nonimus]

Campbell - Kambel One line of oldies in my stock bore this name and the clan has the 'Boar' emblem typical of strength, fecundity and also mimicked in battle; 'The Boar Head Formation' - a wedge of warriors formed to break an enemy line.

Apparently.

My grandmother's maiden name, on my mum's side, was Scott, which can be traced down to Sir Walter Scott.

 

[Circe Infuria]

I can trace myself to a Captain Rhobert from Scotland....

Naturally when he got to the US, the name became Robert.

My father was born in Glasgow. Our family name is Wilson and we are a sept of the Gunn Clan!

My dad's family are Moores, from the Muirs in Scotland.

My mom is a Davies, from the Welsh and Scots Daveys, apparently.

Aaaah! That's twice you've dropped those chirps in the last couple of weeks.

One suspects you are not a big fan of Scottish shortbread, nor a fan of Welsh... whatever it is the Welsh make.

[tonysw]

My paternal Grandfather was from Scotland. He always celebrated New Year as this was the tradition. I think we are from the Clan Cummings.

I married into the Clan MacLean and attended their events. Even though I am no longer married I still attend some of that part of the families celebrations.

I have double cousins who have mapped the family right back centuries. I have yet to obtain copies of it. Been busy with life.

The only clan I come from is Ferguson, but there is also some Norquay in my(from the Orkney islands).

Scott History

The Latin word "Scotti" originally denoted the Irish Celts and later the Gaels in general.
The earliest certain record of the name was of Uchtredus filius Scotti, who lived around 1130. From him were descended the Scotts of Buccleuch and the Scotts of Balwearie.
The Scotts married well and acquired more lands and in time became one of the most powerful border clans. In fact, by the end of the fifteenth century it was said that the chief of the Scotts could easily call upon "1000 spears" to enforce his will.
In common with most Borders families, the Scotts quarrelled regularly with their neighbours and would gather for battle at Bellendean, near the head of the Borthwick Water in Roxburghshire. "A Bellendaine" is cited in ballad books of the time as their war cry, and it is also the slogan of the clan Scott upon the standard of the "Bold Buccleuch", as they are known.
The importance of the Scott clan is shown in the splendid marriage of Anne Scott to James, Duke of Monmouth (the illegitimate son of King Charles II) and in the fact that he adopted the name Scott when the marriage was agreed. The Scott family is known today for the internationally acclaimed Buccleuch art collection housed in the three great houses of the family.
