In the contents of the above book it has a Chapter called:- “The Septs of the Highland Clans.” Has anyone seen a similar book, that might have Septs of the Lowland Clans? In Clan Boyd, even though the name started in 1111 A. D. – according to King George II in 1746 when he executed the 4th Earl of Kilmarnock, William Boyd and did his family tree. But there was no outline of the various Cadet Branches or Septs of Boyd given. Thank you Mike Boyd Brisbane, Aust. .
Mike, my old Kith & Kin denotes... (Surname) = BOYD, (Clan or District) = Ayrshire 13th c, (Source) = STEWART (Stewart Earldoms of Angus, Lennox and Galloway). Septs: There are 20 Septs of this particular STEWART which includes BOYD. This is different to Stewart of Appin and Stewart of Atholl whose Septs do not include Boyd. Don't know if this helps you... if you don't have a Kith & Kin, most libraries have it.
