  • The Clan Macaulay Canada Gathering Inverary Resort Baddeck
    The Clan MacAulay Canada Gathering Inverary Resort Baddeck Cape Breton, Nova Scotia August 16th to 18th saw MacAulays (of all spellings) gather from across North America. We were warmly welcomed by hosts Scott & Terry MacAulay and Matt & Tiffany MacAulay at Inverary Resort in beautiful Baddeck, Cape Breton. We had a lot of activities over the three days but the main attraction was the chance to meet friends from past Gatherings and connect with new MacAulays from both Canada and the United States. There was lots of laughter, friendship and visiting. And we’re very excited to welcome 15 new members to the Clan MacAulay Association. After a leisurely Thursday morning breakfast Chieftain and High Commissioner of the Canadas Bud MacAulay Lush, First Lady Tena and with the assistance of Susan, Shari and Neil & Debra it was time to set up the Clan MacAulay tent near Lakeside Landing. Our display included the Chieftain’s sword, historical information on the MacAulays of Ardencaple, Isle of Lewis, Northern Ireland, Ullapool & Loch Broom and the MacAulay MacGregor connection as well as books and places of MacAulay interest. After registration Thursday night saw the welcome meal at Lakeside Landing followed by our MacAulay Gatherers being split into teams for a rousing game of Scotland trivia. Merriment ensued and friendships formed! Congratulations to Zaedra and her very knowledgeable winning team! After breakfast at Glasgow House our International Heritage Secretary Lucas McCaw joined us via the internet for a very interesting and informative discussion on DNA and its uses in genealogy. The Highland Village in Iona is a Village that starts in Scotland in the early 1700’s through to the 1930’s on Cape Breton Island.

  • Kenneth Macalpin (Cináed Mac Ailpín, Coinneach Mac Ailpein) Has Never Had a Chief of Names and Arms
    Clan MacAlpin(e) 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.

It was with great sadness I heard that Catriona had passed away on Sunday 26th November 2017 after a very brave fight against cancer. Catriona will be fondly remembered as a most popular member of our Clan MacAulay Executive Committee which she served with distinction. I met Catriona for the first time at our Clan Gathering in Stornoway in 2006. She was attending her first Clan Gathering along with two of her cousins from Canada. I always remember her telling me how much she enjoyed the whole experience and in particular our most memorable bus trip to Bernera on the west coast of Lewis which is where her family originate from. As I got to know Catriona I felt she would be an ideal person to serve on our executive committee and in 2007 I asked her if she would be prepared to join.

  • The History of the Mcalpine Clan Society
    The History of the McAlpine Clan Society 2000 Dearborn, Michigan, USA July Clan MacAlpine Society: Report On 1st AGM - July 2000 The 1st Annual General Meeting of the Clan MacAlpine Society is deemed a success! We did it! Our 1st Annual General Meeting (AGM) was held on July 21st and 22nd, 2000, and was pronounced a resounding success. We had approximately 60 MacAlpines in attendance as we shared food, drink, and, of course, the sound of bagpipes. Many discussions arose about the history of our Royal Clan and the endeavors of the Society to bring us together and to regain recognition for our Clan. This two-day event consisted of a golf tournament on the 21st and a picnic with barbecue on the 22nd. The golf tournament was held in Glencoe, Ontario, Canada, while the picnic was held at Maybury State Park in Northville, Michigan, USA. Eight hearty souls entered the golf tournament and Andrew Hugh McAlpine of Detroit was declared the winner. Timothy (McAlpine) Smith, Staff Writer for the Farmington Observer, interviewed some MacAlpines at the picnic and documented our event. He wrote an article about our gathering that appeared in several newspapers the following month (see below). A copy of the article has been forwarded to The Lyon Court so that they will be kept informed of our gathering activities. Among other festivities, a one-year subscription to Scottish Life Magazine was given to one lucky attendee. We would like to thank the folks at this fine publication for their support and sponsorship of our event. We would like to offer a special thank you to the co-hosts of this event, James A.
