With ancient Gaelic roots, early forms of the Finlay name first appear in the Scottish historical record as early as the thirteenth century.
• Closely allied to the proud Clan Farquharson, they shared in both its glorious fortunes and tragic misfortunes, while others have made their mark through a colourful range of endeavours and pursuits.
• On the stage, Frank Finlay is the veteran English actor of stage, television and film, born in 1926 in Lancashire.
• His role of Iago in the 1965 film Othello won him an Academy Award nomination for Best Supporting Actor, as did his performance in the 2002 The Pianist.
