Cameron Clan

Cameron Clan

There are several theories concerning the origin of this name: one states that they descended either from the younger son of Camchron, a king of Denmark. The more likely explanation is that the first authentic chief of the clan, Donald Dubh, was descended either from the Macgillonies or from the mediaeval family of Cameron of Bellegarno in Fife. Donald Dubh married an heiress of the Macmartins of Letterfinlay, and by his prowess and leadership, united the confederation tribes which became known as the Clan Cameron.
