“Not the Clan Fergus(s)on Society” extends a hearty “Fàilte” or Welcome to you on behalf of the Scottish family of Fergus(s)ons, Gaelic name MacFhearghuis.
|
THE CHIEF: The head of the family of Fergusson of Kilkerran has been recognised since the early 18th century as the Chief of the name Fergusson. The present chief is Sir Charles Fergusson, 9th Baronet.
THE SOCIETY: Membership of the Clan Fergus(s)on Society is open to any person having a legitimate interest in the objectives of the Society and paying the current subscription. These objectives, as laid down in the original Constitution, are as follows:
1. Reviving, conserving and promoting of interests, sentiments and associations of the Clan.
2. The collecting and preserving of records and of traditions relating to the history of the Clan.
3. The encouragement of Celtic education.
4. The assisting of Clanspeople in need.
The Annual General Meeting of the Society is held on the last Saturday in May. The accounts are submitted for approval and adoption, rates of subscription decided, and office bearers and committee elected. In addition the objectives stated above are discussed and debated and any relevant action set in motion.
The different spellings of the name are of no significance and in former days depended on individual choice. Today it would depend on family tradition.
CURRENT MEMBERSHIP SUBSCRIPTIONS:
Ordinary: £10.00; Family: £15.00; Life: £150.

Orange bordered on account of my Dutch birth and proudly flying the Saltire in honor of our Scottish roots, I make this website for all Fergussons - regardless of name, spelling or origins. It's dedicated to all Scots and all Scottish descendants around the world, meaning that in fact it's dedicated to ourselves!
