Hello Jim There was a Clan MacPherson Pipe Band when I was active in the Ladies Auxilary of Clan Wallace in Beverly. I don't know if the band is still active. The Clan MacPherson did hold their monthly meetings in Andover. When Clan Wallace in Beverly disbanded, many members (women and men) joined Clan MacPherson in Andover. Unfortunately, I did not as I do not drive. >From an old "Highlander" magazine I found the Clan MacPherson Association, United States Branch. The address was listed as 5401 Sheffield Court, Alexandria, VA 22311. They might be able to help you.
