With origins that stretch back to Ireland, the Fergussons can lay claim to particularly ancient and enduring Scottish fame.

• The sixth century Irish chieftain Fergus – from whom the Fergussons take their name – is reputed to have brought the ancient Stone of Scone, on which Scottish monarchs were enthroned, from Ireland to Scotland.

• They can also claim a role in the adoption of the Scottish national flag the Saltire, featuring a white diagonal cross on a blue background.

• This is through Angus MacFergus, who fought against the Northumbrians at the battle of Athelstaneford, in East Lothian, in 832 AD.
