As I've mentioned here before, I'm descended from the Johnstones of
Lochmaben, where I hear our family castle still stands. I'm not sure I'd get
a room for free though, they are Scots, afterall.

Our Clan is descended from the Court of Mary; Queen of Scots

So is ours...our clan is heavily allied with the Stewart's and served them
as clerks, hence the name "Clark" (my mother's surname) My kilt is
Stewart
hunting plaid (my daughter has absconded with it...) What's really funny
is
that frowning up the parochial school I attended had uniforms in the Clark
plaid...myself and my siblings were the only people who truly had the
right
to wear it...when I tried explaining it to some of the Polish kids (97%)
of
the school) they rolled their eyes....
