Re: Armorial Bearings...
I can appreciate that....however, (and please don't take offense) whilst I am proud to be associated with my Clan, enjoy many of the members etc. I have to say I consider my last name as mine. Even if I were to discover that Cúchulainn himself had road a couple of sea turtles to Scotland and had a child thus creating the name Cochran and I was of that direct descent....I have given definition to my name and not some distant ancestor. (My 2 cents of a oft talked about subject in my house.)
