Clan McCorquodale
Clan McCorquodale is a Scottish clan, recognised by the Lord Lyon King of Arms, though without a chief so recognised. The last chief of the clan died in the 18th century. Because the clan does not have a recognised chief, it is considered an armigerous clan, and has no legal standing under Scots Law. Historically, the clan inhabited lands west of Loch Awe, in Argyll. These clan lands were centred at Loch Tromlee, where an island castle served as the clan seat. The line of Clan McCorquodale chiefs, first recorded in the 15th century, has been untraced since the 18th century.
==Origin of the name==
The surname ''McCorquodale'' is an Anglicisation of the Gaelic ''Mac Thorcadail'' (or ''MacCorcadail''), meaning "son of ''Torcadal''". The Gaelic personal name ''Torcadal'' is of Norse origin and means "Thor's kettle"〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Mccorquodale Name Meaning and History )〕 (a more romanticised meaning for the name has been given as "cauldron of the thunder spirit").〔 In 1881, the surname was most frequent in lands which constitute the current Paisley postcode area.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=National Trust Names )〕 This, more or less, corresponds with the Clan McCorquodale's traditional lands in Argyll. The clans ''Macleod of the Lewes'' and ''Gunn'' claim variations of this surname as septs of theirs. Septs are families which claimed allegiance to stronger chief and his clan, or that lived upon lands controlled by a stronger chief and his clan. The majority of those ''McCorquodales'' recorded in 1881 were located far from the traditional lands of these two clans.〔
