Scottish Clan Finder

Instructions for use

Enter your family name in the box and click the Exact button to find your Scottish clan. This compares the name against the names taken from Scottish Parish records. If this does not give a result try the Wide clan search. This compares the name against the many thousands of recorded derivative of Scottish clan names.

When a scottish clan connection has been established click on the View Clan Information button to view the Clan Crest, Clan Location, Clan Seat, History and Clan Tartans. ClanFinderŪ currently has full information on the main 143 scottish clans and partial information on the remaining 198 scottish clans. Ongoing research will add more information as it becomes available.

If you cannot find a match under your surname, but you know you have family from a certain area, you can enter the exact name of the town or village In Scotland and click on Search. The main Scottish clan or clans associated with the town will be returned - then click on View Clan Information.
