    Dow is often quoted as a sept of Davidson, which has a chief: Alexander Davidson of Davidson, who lives in New Zealand. If you feel it important to identify with a Chief as much as his clan, then I suppose you should join the Clan Davidson Society.

    Oh yes. The Davidson tartan is quite handsome, and not nearly as bright as Buchanan.

    always wondered if there was a relationship between Dow and Downes/Downs... (and Downes itself is a hard one to nail down, being claimed as English, despite it being majority in Wales and Ireland...)
