Have an O Fficial For the first time in 500 years, Scottish Clan Ewen/MacEwen will have an o fficial chief In 2012, the Lord Lyon, whose offrce is the Public Registry of Al1 Arms and Bearings in Scotland and dates from 1672, estab- lished a format for selecting a chief of the Clan. Subject to the submittal ofhistorical documents, genealogies, and. several group meetings, in 2014 the Lord Lyon determined that two distinct groups existed which might be considered as rightful clans; Clan Ewen and Clan Ewing. Sir John McEwen, 5th Baronet of Marchmont and Bardrochat, Following the traditions and rules of the DerbhJine, both groups were given a period offive years to establish an organiza- Commander of Clan MacEwen. tion, select a temporaly commander, and prepare for the election of an official chief. In June 2014 a majority of members of the Clan Ewen Soci- ety appointed Sir John McEwen, 5tr' Baronet of Marchmont and Bardrochat, as the commander of Clan MacEwen. In keeping with the rules of organization established by the Lord Lyon, over the last five years, the Clan has conducted organi- zational meetings, solicitations, and corresponded with those in- terested membersall around the wor1d. We are proud to announce the Clan Ewen Society will be hosting a Derbfine to confirm Clan MacEwen's position that Sir John H. R. McEwen is our selection for Chief of the Name.

His paternal grandfather was Archdeacon Brown, the Anglican rector of St. Mary's Church in Middle Swan, and his maternal grandfather was Rev. William Mitchell, the founder and first rector of that church, and the first Anglicanminister in the colony. The Brownslived at "Brookville", Newcastle Road, Midland Junction. This was in an area known as "Brown Town", because a number of members of the extended Brown family lived in the area bounded by Newcastle Road (now Toodyay Road), Spring Avenue, and Great Northern Highway. (The home of Stephen Brown, "Lynwood'', is the only surviving building of theera.) Harold was educated at Guildford Grammar School. After leaving school he worked at the W.A.Bank, leaving there on 30 September 1912, when forhealth reasons he undertook a famung lifestyle, working for some time as a jackeroo on farms near Geraldton.

  • Chapter I the Name Ewing
    CHAPTER I THE NAME EWING Discussions of where this name originated have been continuing for many years. The SCOTTISH CLAN with which it might have been associated is a debatable one. In Scottish Tartans & Clans by Sir Thomas Innes of Learney (Emeritus Lord Lyon, King of Arms), Johnson and Bacon about 1945 [13th Printing Edinburgh and London] page 5 states: “In Scotland, Clan came to mean a group of families occupying a definite locality-a particular glen, or an island. These families shared-or claimed to share-their descent from a common ancestor and as such he was the CHIEF of the Clan ... The Tartans shown in this book are authentic-that is to say, the Sett [plaid weave] has been defined by the chief of the Clan to the satisfaction of the Lyon Court and the description is officially recorded in the ‘Public Register of All Arms and Bearings’.” On page 8, he also states: “EWAN, Ewen are connected with the MacLachlan Clan. EWING is also connected with the MacLachlan Clan.” On page 76 is an explanation of MacLachlan: “Maclachlan is a Celtic Clan. The Maclachlan of that Ilk have resided from time immemorial in Strathlachlan in Argylshire. The district was once called Kilmortie.” On page 10 begins the discussion of MacEwan: “MacEwan or MacEwen are connected with the MacEwan Clan.” On page 65, he continues: “Cowal was originally the home of this Clan. On the East Coast of Glenfyne there stood in 1750 the ruins of the MacEwan Castle. The first MacEwan Chief on record lived in 1200.” In Highland Clans and Tartans, by R.

By a happy coincidence this year, Cluny celebrated his birthday on the same day with his family at Newton Castle, Blairgowrie. But not before telling me of his memories of the same day in 2000 when he, accompanied by the late Lady Cluny was Chieftain of the Day, supported by a large retinue of clansmen and women. He said; Sheila and I loved our day there---warmest of memories.’ Notwithstanding the prior wet weather, closure of the adjoining car parks, and an early start, a large crowd assembled with several clan groups joining the March of the Clans and Bands. Of the latter 25 attended this year, and included two bands wearing the red Macpherson tartan; Launceston (Tasmania) City Pipes and Drums and the Knox Grammar School Old Boys Pipe Band. L to R, Jimmy Barnes, Chieftain of the Day, John L Macpherson and Euan Noble at Bundanoon. Visitors to the Clan Macpherson tent included several potential members from across New South Wales and Victoria.

  • The Clan Ewing of Loch Lomond – an Alternate View1 John D
    20 Journal of Clan Ewing Vol. 12, No. 4 (November 2006) The Clan Ewing of Loch Lomond – An Alternate View1 John D. McLaughlin (Lochlan at aol.com) The following statement by Elbert William Robinson (E.W.R.) Ewing in his Clan Ewing in Scotland2 summarizes the most common origin postulated for the Ewings of Glasgow and Loch Lomond. “The name is distinctly of Gaelic and clan origin, and except where particular family histories and other evidence point to a different conclusion, persons bearing the name and traceable to the localities known to have been occupied by the early clan, its septs and descendants, are of the same race and probably sprung from the MacEwens of Otter. In the Lowland districts the blood has mixed largely with that of the Lowland inhabitants.” DNA lends some credence to this theory as most of the Ewings do match the NW Irish modal; and by pedigree the Clan MacEwen of Otter are said to be Ui Neill, descended from the Irish O'Neills (NW Irish). But there are several problems with this theory, the first of which is that the pedigree linking the MacEwens and other clans to the Ui Neill of Ireland is most likely a medieval fabrication; and secondly the fact that the Ewings do match the NW Irish modal does not necessarily mean they were descendants of Nial or descended from the Irish O'Neills. Several Scottish families in both Irish and Scottish genealogical manuscripts are said to descend from Anradan, said to be a son of Aedh Athlaman, the Irish king of Aileach who died in 1033, the ancestor of the Irish O'Neills.

    ********************************************************************************* 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.
