Talk:Clan Hunter

message: On 11 October 2006, an edit was made that added Armigerous clan to the See Also section.  I can find no reason for this association, for, as far as I can tell, Clan Hunter is not an armigerous clan.  The only relation I can find is on the Scottish-Crafts page for Clan Hunter, where they have a broken link to their page on on armigerous clans (which appears to be nearly identical to the wiki article of the same name).  Even there, Clan Hunter is not in that list (all clans listed on that site have the same link).  I also am unable to find anything in the definition that would mark Clan Hunter as an armigerous clan.  I'm not going to remove the link at this time, to give the one that put it there a chance to give his reasons.  Or at least for someone other than myself to look into this.  --~Kenzal Hunter 23:22, 27 July 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: You are correct that Clan Hunter is not an armigerous clan, since it has a chief. Scottish clan chief explains that armigerous clans are clans without chiefs. 155.213.224.59 (talk) 14:23, 23 July 2014 (UTC)
replies: text: Well the article no longer says that the clan is armigerous and hasn't for quite a long time so nothing to worry about.QuintusPetillius (talk) 15:33, 23 July 2014 (UTC)

thread_title:  External links modified 

message: I have added the fact that the Clan Hunter is a Highland as well as Lowland Clan, as well as that its territory included parts of Arran and the Cumbraes, where the Hunters long held land and office. This places historical Hunter territory on both sides of the 'Highland line' and meant that the Hunters also operated as part of the Gaelic world. It is only right that this should be remembered by the inclusion of their Island territories. The Hunters are considered a sept of the Stuarts of Bute - as well as a Clan in their own right - precisely because of this historical Hunter presence on Arran and the Cumbaes, which meant that some Hunters in these areas formed alliance with the larger Clan of the Stuarts of Bute during the Viking raids on the Isles. Even a cursory search on the internet will show many Clan maps, such as that by Sir Iain Moncrieffe of that Ilk,  which place the Hunters squarely on Arran among the Highland clans. Therefore it is only right that Clan Hunter should be recognised as a Clan with both Highland and Lowland connections.
This fact has been noted before on the Wikipedia page but edited out for some reason. Calbannach (talk) 15:52, 15 September 2020 (UTC)
