Clan Morrison
Clan Morrison is a Scottish clan. There are numerous Scottish clans, both Highland and Lowland, which use the surname ''Morison'' or ''Morrison''. In 1965, the Lord Lyon King of Arms decided to recognise one man as chief of all Morrisons, whether their clans were related or not.
==Morrisons of mainland Scotland==
The surname ''Morrison'' is derived from the patronymic form of the personal name ''Morris''.〔''Dictionary of American Family Names''〕 This personal name is a variant of ''Maurice'', and was quite popular in the Middle Ages.〔''A Dictionary of First Names''〕 The mainland Morrisons descend from a Norman named Maurice.〔Way, George and Squire, Romily. (1994). Pages 280 - 281.〕 The senior line of the mainland Morrisons were the Morrisons of Bognie Castle in Aberdeenshire.〔 Many of the mainland and lowland Morrisons derived their name this way.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Origin of the Name ) 〕 The Morrisons of Perth and Lennox derive their surname in this way.〔Innes of Learney 1971: pp. 252–253.〕
Within the north-east of Scotland, the Morisons of Bognie, in Aberdeenshire, are the principal 'Morrison' family.〔 They are thought to be unrelated to the west coast (and Hebridean) Morrisons.〔 The first laird of Bognie was Alexander, whose son married Christian Urquhart, Viscountess Frendraught.〔 The current representative of the family is Alexander Gordon Morison of Bogie, 13th Baron of Bognie.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Bognie )〕 Until the last century, this family was the principal armigerous 'Morrison' family. The family first gained the Bognie estate in the first part of the 17th century.〔Anonymous 2005〕
The coats of arms of the Morisons of Dersay (or Darcie), in Fife; and the Morisons of Bognie; and the Morisons of Prestongrange utilise Moor's heads. This is a pun on the surname; an example of canting arms. According to the 19th-century historian William C. Mackenzie, it is uncertain whether or not these Morisons have any connection with the Lewis Morisons. Mackenzie noted that in the beginning of the 17th century, a son of the laird of Darcie went to Lewis to negotiate for the release of the Fife adventurers who had been held hostage.〔Mackenzie 1903: pp. 61–64.〕
