The Scots have made a great impact on everyday life. Examples of the accomplishments of forward thinking Scots are Alexander Graham Bell's telephone, Kirkpatrick MacMillan's bicycle, John Logie Baird's television, the discovery of penicillin by Alexander Fleming, and chloroform developed by James Young Simpson. A symbol of Scotland and its clan or family system is the fabric known as tartan. Though centuries old, tartan patterns have been identified since the eighteenth century with the various clans and districts. There is no imitation and there is nothing more indicative of Scotland to the millions of Scottish descendants around the globe.
Societies are active throughout the world.
The Society can help you discover your Scottish Clan connection. We are people with a passion to live our Scottish culture, to keep the traditions alive, and to pass them on. This site designed and produced by Information Systems and Technologies, Inc.
