I came across an article in the Scottish Banner that said Leman is a sept of our Clan.  I also found it on the web... as a surname grouped with lemon.  This surprised me because my mother’s maiden name is Leman.  If it’s true… that connects me from both sides of the family.

Morris:

Congratulations, you are a "Double Lamont"!

My Lamont connection is through my father's family, my mom's mother's maiden name was Brown, they are Scottish, but I haven't been able to connect them to the Lamonts (yet).

I am a "Double Campbell" no I'm sure this will bring a ton of wrath down on me.

Can anyone else claim a double connection to Clan Lamont or any other clan?

Hi Morris

Have a look at

http://www.mcleman.org/mcleman.htm


I found it quite difficult to navigate the site but I did come across a ceremonial photograph or two in which the Lamont tartan is worn. Then of course there's the song written by Tommy Makeham about a pub crawl, which goes something like this


"There was Johnny MacIldoo and McGie and me
  and a couple or two or three went on a spree one day
  We had a bob or two which we knew how to blew
  ...
  We visited McCann's, McLemans, Dirty Dan's...   "

Amusingly, it was these lyrics that prompted me to do a Google search for McLeman.

Sandy

Thanks Sandy

 

I checked it out; they have quite a large family tree.  I haven’t found and direct connection yet.

This is interesting. We will need to look into this name for inclusion.
