hello and greetings,
ma was a morrison. The old old badge I always saw (I think he gave to her in 50's when she came to USA) was 3 heads ..saracens they were called ..many of the morrison groups on east side of scotland use that badge ..fyi . motto: prudentia prae- prestat ..roughly perks after labor . ..I mind my granda talking to her about it ..we grew up ..just with the blue green taran now called ancient ..'s what i grew with ..so that's that .
the southern (west) morrisons are said to be irish near Harris ..the Lewis ones are norse so they say ..the easterners are said to be ..old stock (pictish/lowland) or some say french ..be nice to see the dna reports they into in the clan project thing ..

have a nice day .
Dave
