Clan Colquhoun - now one big happy family!

[Tobus]

I guess I've been out of the loop lately, because it came as a surprise to me that they have officially dissolved the Clan Colquhoun Society of North America as well as Clan Colquhoun UK.

But they have now formed the Clan Colquhoun International Society, a single organisation for all matters Colquhoun. I think this is a great step forward in merging us all together as a group, like a proper clan should be. Kudos to our Chief, Sir Malcolm, for his vision to "rebuild" and revamp the clan all across the globe.

The website looks like it has a lot of promise. http://www.clancolquhoun.com

In addition to the expansion of the new Clan Colquhoun International Society, there is still the organization and site, http://www.clancolquhounsociety.co.uk/home.html and the Org Facebook site, https://www.facebook.com/ClanColquhounSociety

We look forward to a central location for Clan Chief Colquhoun to keep members of the Clan informed and abreast of issues and updates. And two updates, the Loch Lomond Arms Hotel, in Luss, has been reopened with a wonderful restoration and update, and the Clan Colquhoun Heritage & Visitor Centre in Luss is closed until further notice.

Yes, Tobus, you have been out of the loop, where have you been Sir.... ?

Well done! It makes much more sense to have a clan society/organisation organised in such a manner, especially for those clans out there who are small in number. Wonderful images (paintings) on the Clan Colquhoun website by the way!

I completely agree, Kyle. Clan Shaw is so small and with so little activity that I just can't stay in the loop. Default to maternal clan, Robertson (unorthodox but not too bad).

I think that Cnan Colquhoun's example should be followed by some of the other clans.

We did much the same for the Cunninghams when we formed Clan Cunningham International in 2009. At present there are competing claims to be Head of Family (the lowland equivalent of a Clan Chief) before the Lord Lyon but we have stated that we will support whoever is successful.

Unfortunately, Clan Colquhoun is virtually nonexistent down here in my part of Texas. The only news I get is the occasional email update, which is where I got this information just this morning (in their last newsletter).
