Description
The Real History of Clan Gunn Discover the origins of the Clan Gunn, a traditional Scottish clan with a complex and intriguing history. Contrary to popular belief, the Gunns are not a traditional clan with a founding father, but rather the original inhabitants of northern, mainland Scotland. The first recorded Gunn, Coroner Gunn of Caithness, died around 1450, marking the beginning of a long and storied history. The establishment of a Clan Gunn Chief in 1803 by the Court of Session, Scotland's supreme court, is a significant milestone in the clan's history. This led to the creation of the MacHamish Gunns of Killernan, a line of Gunns that has continued to the present day. The book delves into the traditional Clan Gunn Chief line, debunking a long-held myth that this line is extinct. For those interested in Scottish history and genealogy, this book provides a detailed and fascinating account of the Clan Gunn's history, myths, and genealogy.
