    The surname of Clark (Clerich) has long been established as a traditional associated family name with the Clan Macpherson. Currently, we have quite a few Macpherson clansmen and clanswomen that have the surname of Clark, Clarke, Clarkson, Clerich, or Clerk. Of course, as I previously stated, a surname is often just the tip of the iceberg and a good start. Further genealogical research determining where in Scotland your various Scottish ancestors emigrated from will shed more of a conclusive light, as well as helping you determine which tartan you would like to wear.
