| Glennie of Clan MacIntosh | |||||||||||||||||||||||
| This is a personal page for my scottish ancestory. It includes some of my family heritage as well as my personal interests and "hobbies", relating to Scotland. | |||||||||||||||||||||||
| My clan tartan is MacIntosh and I wear the hunting tartan that is displayed as a background for this page. I am descended from a sept of Clan MacIntosh. Clan MacIntosh was the chief clan of the federation of clans called Clan Chattan, the cat, therefore the slogan is "Touch not the cat bot (without) a glove". Loch Moy is our battle cry. Loch Moy is the lake that is beside the Clan Chieftain's estate, Moy Hall, south east of Inverness. I visited Moy Hall and Loch Moy, and met with our clan chieftain just before he died of cancer in 1995. As far as I know, there isn't a chieftain at the moment, 'cause his son didn't want the title. I am including some photos of the estate and the loch, plus a photo of our badge that is at the gateway to the estate. |

Many clans were connected to The Black Watch. It is a tartan that is universal, and anyone can wear it. | ||||||||||||||||||||||

| This photo was taken at a rally in St. Catharines Ontario. I piped the procession down the street to the rally centre. | |||||||||||||||||||||||

| For those people who wonder what is worn under a true Scottsman's kilt, I offer this photo of me taken a few years ago at Lilly Valley, Ft. Erie, ON Canada. As you can see, nothing is worn and it is all in fine working order. | |||||||||||||||||||||||
