While the Clan name is rightly Donnachaidh, many of us worldwide naturally tend to relate equally well to the family surname,

My own family emigrated from Stornoway, Isle of Lewis and arrived in Bannockburn, Otago, New Zealand in the mid 1800′s. The walls of my Grandfathers house in Bannockburn Otago are of rammed earth and the house has only had four owners.

The 700th anniversary of the battle of Bannockburn was celebrated in Bannockburn New Zealand in a field opposite my Grandparents house.

It would certainly be great (and appropriate) if the Clan could purchase Dall estate.

Regards to all.

I am the son of Rev. Richard Robertson Renton[deceased] of Glasgow Scotland. He told me that he is part of the Robertson clan? and also mentioned that the clan is an offshoot of them. Would anyone be able to provide any background for me? I live in British Columbia Canada.

Perhaps we ban the clan and collect from the Duncan Robertson clans a pitch into a fund to again own this property set in up as a massive B & B and museum that clan members are welcomed and honored at receptions each evening, hosting tattoos, games and keeping our culture alive

Looks like it’s still on the market, but for a heftier price tag of £7.5 million! OUCH!

I would LOVE to have family history like this I hope one day to move to Scotland and see sites our family help create. The Robertson clan and their ancestors basically shaped the face of a lot Scotland and Ireland. It’s nice to know my name carries weight in history and present time. The more you know, eh cousins?

I think the estate should be bought for our clan too so that we are allowed to walk the halls of our ancestors, and get to feel close to them.

I agree with Neil Alan Robertson that this Gem should be purchased by the clan.
