 A lost Donald
A friend of mine, who has always known he was Scottish, but never knew the name of his Scottish side, has recently discovered that his ancestors are MacGill's, making him part of the mighty Clan Donald!
This is a really proud day for him, and I am very glad that he has found his clan. Now he's going to purchase his first kilt (Donald modern) and join the society!
We have a new kiltie on our hands!

Actually, the MacGill's have their own tartan:

Good for him, that is very exciting news, good luck to him, and remember to bring him here.

They also have their own "clan badge," which is a crest of a phoenix inside a belt and strap!
