  • The Hendersons Are an Ancient Clan, Tracing Their Ancestery Back to the Picts, Scotland's Earliest People. Clan Henderson Descen
    The Hendersons are an ancient Clan, tracing their ancestery back to the Picts, Scotland's earliest people. Clan Henderson descend from the Pictish prince Eanruig Mor, meaning "Big Henry", whose family became known in the Gaelic tongue as Maceanruig, or "son of Henry". Through the course of the centuries the name became anglified to the current form of Henderson, although Gaelic forms of the name still exist. Eanruig Mor is known to be the son of King Neachtain, who ruled the Pictish kingdom from 700 to 724, and is reputed to have contructed the great Pictish fortress of Abernethy. Clan Henderson lived amid the rugged splendour of Glencoe in the northern Highlands, while other branches of the Clan settled in the Scottish border territory, and in the far north district of Caithness. The border Hendersons soon rose to prominence, holding powerful positions in the mighty strongholds which were such an integral part to the defence of Scotland. One of these great men, William Henderson, was the chamberlain of Lochmaben Castle during the 14th Century. Another, James Henderson, became Lord Advocate in 1494, was appointed to the bench, and acquired the lands of Fordell in Fife for the Clan. Here he built the magnificent fortified mansion of Fordell Castle. The Hendersons were classed as a riding clan, but were sufficiently loyal to evade the Scottish Parliament's 1594 list of turbulent border clans that were to be suppressed. The success of the Clan Henderson continued to escalate, and by the 17th Century the Clan boasted one of the most notable figures in Scottish politics and church affairs.

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