Ida,

What you seem to have is similar to a commercial document my brother purchased for me which provides "The Ancient History of the Distinquished Surname EWART" -- suitable for framing, I might add, which you can get for most families surnames for $20 or $30.

As I posted on another thread, it is unlikely that the Ewarts merited a tartan or clan affiliation, being lowlanders rather than Highlanders. On a trip to London a few years back I stopped in at a Scottish shoppe selling tartans. The salesman looked up the name in reference books and on a map, and this pretty well confirmed what I say here.

I have certainly heard of Clan Dalzell. In fact, one of the children of my maternal grandmother's sister, (they were Dunns) married a man whose surname is Dalzell. Is this a case of what goes around comes around, or what?

R.G. Ewart (up here in Canada)
