********************************************************************************* GENEALOGISTS for the SCOTTISH CLANS by Robert D ********************************************************************************* GENEALOGISTS FOR THE SCOTTISH CLANS by Robert D. McLaren 7810 Kincardine Court Alexandria, VA 22315-4025 (703) 971-6924 [email protected] 8 April 2000 Version 2000-3 © Copyright 2000 Robert D. McLaren The following list is a compilation of Clan Genealogists or Clan points of contact for genealogy (for the Scottish Clans and Family Associations). The amount of information available from these genealogists varies greatly, with some having extensive records. For example, the clan genealogist for Clan Scott maintains a database of all SCOTTs and is a coordinator of the SCOTT One Name Society. He has about 53,000 records on file dealing with more than 2,000 family lines. The clan genealogist/historian for Clan Barclay also is a coordinator for the BARCLAY One Name Society. She has about 19,000 BARCLAY/BARKLEY and collateral names on file dealing with 125 family lines. The Clan Morrison historian has a 6,000-name database of MORRISON families in the U.S. and Canada. Some clans have genealogy committees. When I learn about them I will include committee members in this listing. Some of these members only cover one or a few states. In these cases, I note the states that particular member covers. Also, some clan genealogists specialize in one surname of a clan. Clan MacKay, for example, has many surname genealogists. I am listing these surnames under the parent clan with a note (i.e., See also Mackie). The actual genealogist and his/her address will be listed under the surname (i.e., Mackie). For some clans, more than one society exists. In some of these cases the societies are affiliated -- as is the case for the Clan MacLaren Society (in Scotland) and the Clan MacLaren Society of North America. In other cases the societies are competing societies. Additionally, some of these societies may not be endorsed by the Clan Chief. I am not making any statement about these competing societies. I am just listing genealogists for any society that has established genealogists. My intent is to provide information that will assist those of Scottish descent in tracing their genealogies, not to judge the merits of competing societies. This listing also includes email addresses and home pages. I'm including the home pages since these web sites often have genealogical information. However, not all of this information is well documented. Without documentation (i.e., sources of the information) it is impossible to evaluate the completeness of the research behind the information. Therefore, use any information with inadequate documentation with caution. Consider it a guide that must be further checked. I've found that email addresses and home page URLs change faster than I can check them. So, please check your email addresses and home page URLs. If they are incorrect, or if I don't show one, send me an corrected email address or URL and I will include them in future updates of this listing. The list is alphabetical. However, since Mc is an abbreviation of Mac, I am treating Mac and Mc as the same and am listing them as if they were Mac. If you do write to any of these genealogists, include a stamped self addressed envelope for them to reply. Also, do not expect them to do your research for you. In most cases, I'm sure they will respond to a reasonable, limited request if you give details of the information being sought -- if they have the information readily available. (In some cases, the genealogists only provide assistance to clan or association members.) And don't forget to give them copies of your genealogy so they can expand their databases. If you call any of these genealogists, please do so before 9:00 p.m. in the evening (their time). I distribute this list at the Scottish Games I attend. This list is now on the Internet, on the web page of the Ellen Payne Odom Genealogy Library in Moultrie, Georgia (URL http://www.teleport.com/~binder/famtree.shtml) and on the web page of the National Genealogical Society (URL http://www.ngsgenealogy.org). I am starting to send copies of this list via email to those genealogists who have email (and I have their email address). This list may be copied freely. Any computer bulletin board (BBS), genealogical or clan society, or web page, that wishes to maintain a copy may do so. Also, anyone (including BBSs, genealogical societies, or clan societies) that wishes to pass out copies of this list free of charge may do so. If you do post a copy, or pass out copies, please include this introductory page (with date and copyright notice) and the afterword. While this list may be freely copied, it may not be sold or used for any other commercial purpose. I'm sure that this list is not complete and I need help in maintaining it. See the last page of this list for societies that I know exist, but for which I do not know a genealogist. If you have any additions or corrections, please write to me at the address above, or email me. Please include the following information: Name of genealogist and title; name of society; postal address, phone number (if he/she wants it published) and email address of genealogist; and society web page. I update this list several times a year, so if your list is over a year old, a more current list has been distributed. Additionally, not everyone who lived in Scotland belonged to a Clan -- about 70 percent of the Scottish families did not have a direct Clan affiliation. While some Family Associations have formed for some of these families, many are still without a Clan or Family Assoication tie. If this is the case for your surname(s), there is an association for you that is worth while checking out. This is the Scottish District Families Association. Their web site is http:/web.infoave.net/~jmcdaris/sdfa.html. ********************************************************************************* CLAN/FAMILY CLAN GENEALOGIST AND ADDRESS ---------------------- -------------------------------------------------------- ABERCROMBIE Larry L.

  • THE MYTHOLOGY, TRADITIONS and HISTORY of Macdhubhsith
    THE MYTHOLOGY, TRADITIONS and HISTORY OF MacDHUBHSITH ― MacDUFFIE CLAN (McAfie, McDuffie, MacFie, MacPhee, Duffy, etc.) VOLUME 2 THE LANDS OF OUR FATHERS PART 2 Earle Douglas MacPhee (1894 - 1982) M.M., M.A., M.Educ., LL.D., D.U.C., D.C.L. Emeritus Dean University of British Columbia This 2009 electronic edition Volume 2 is a scan of the 1975 Volume VII. Dr. MacPhee created Volume VII when he added supplemental data and errata to the original 1792 Volume II. This electronic edition has been amended for the errata noted by Dr. MacPhee. - i - THE LIVES OF OUR FATHERS PREFACE TO VOLUME II In Volume I the author has established the surnames of most of our Clan and has proposed the sources of the peculiar name by which our Gaelic compatriots defined us. In this examination we have examined alternate progenitors of the family. Any reader of Scottish history realizes that Highlanders like to move and like to set up small groups of people in which they can become heads of families or chieftains. This was true in Colonsay and there were almost a dozen areas in Scotland where the clansman and his children regard one of these as 'home'. The writer has tried to define the nature of these homes, and to study their growth. It will take some years to organize comparative material and we have indicated in Chapter III the areas which should require research. In Chapter IV the writer has prepared a list of possible chiefs of the clan over a thousand years. The books on our Clan give very little information on these chiefs but the writer has recorded some probable comments on his chiefship.

  • International Journal of Scottish Literature ISSN 1751-2808
    international journal of scottish literature www.ijsl.stir.ac.uk ISSN 1751-2808 ISSUE FOUR, SPRING/SUMMER 2008 Editorial: Caribbean-Scottish Passages Gemma Robinson and Carla Sassi Making a way in the world In Scotland you can reach Guyana by taking the A81 north from Glasgow, or the A84 then A81 from the Crianlarich turnoff on the M80 Motorway at Stirling. Either way you’ll find Guyana – a garden centre in Aberfoyle, specialising in plants, garden arts and crafts sourced from around the world.[1] Robert, the owner, has visited the country before and chose the name as a way of keeping hold of the ‘rainforest connotation’ once back in a more temperate climate. He also recognises the shop’s curiosity value: ‘It would be like finding a shop called “Aberfoyle” in Georgetown, Guyana, although you’d be surprised at how many connections people tell you about’. Driving through Aberfoyle (population 576) on a Sunday afternoon, a Trinidadian, two Jamaicans and two Britons, turned a corner and saw this shop: it was a singular form of Caribbean-Scottish connection. What does it mean to track ‘Caribbean-Scottish passages’? Who is involved in making the passage between the Caribbean and Scotland, historically, culturally and politically? How can we understand the significance of these passages between nations, histories, art-forms, languages and literatures? These are some of the questions that animate this special issue, and the questions that our contributors pose and answer in the articles, art-work and occasional papers that follow. To think about the Caribbean and Scotland in the same horizon of vision is to recognise it as part of a shared world.

  • Forsyth Notes, Issue93
    FORSYTH NOTES April 15, 2005 Welcome to the ninety-third issue of Forsyth Notes . Forsyth Notes is published bi- monthly by Clan Forsyth Society of the USA, and is your e-link to your extended Forsyth family. April 16 th marks the anniversary of the major turning point in Scottish history – the Battle of Culloden. This issue of Forsyth Notes is dedicated to our brave ancestors who fought for freedom. They may have lost the final battle, and many lost their lives, but their bravery and philosophy has dramatically changed the world. America is the product of their thirst for freedom. Although a different time and place, the philosophy of these brave Scots was best expressed four hundred twenty-six years earlier in the Declaration of Arbroath (April 6, 1320): 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. The Battle of Culloden - April 16th 1746 The Battle of Culloden by Mark Churms The Battle of Culloden - April 16th 1746 - marked the fall of the Jacobite rebellion of 1745, which sought to restore the Stuart monarchy to the throne. In barely 40 minutes of fighting, the massed army of Bonnie Prince Charlie had been slaughtered by government troops (which also contained Scottish clans) led by Prince William the Duke of Cumberland. On a cold drizzly day in April in the year of Our Lord 1746, two armies faced each other across a bleak moor near the town of Inverness in the north of Scotland.
