Clan History
Smith History
It is said that a family of Smiths have been settled in the parish of Stathblane at Craigend for well over 400 years. Initially they were just tenants, but later became lairds of the land. Apparently, when surnames came into use, the family took theirs from their occupation: as smiths and armourers of the Barony of Mugdock.
In Latin documents the surname is written as Faber and Ferro.
