Histories of Clans and Kindreds

The Clans and Kindreds with Histories in the Encyclopaedia

Can't find your Scottish name in the below list of 346 names? This maybe because your surname was historically a satellite family, in modern terms called a ‘sept’ of a larger kindred. You can use our Clan Finder database at clancentral.co.uk to find which wider clan your name was part of. Over time we will aim to have small histories on all of the major Septs and smaller Scottish clans.
