    Well, the above quote from wikipedia is just garbage.

    Folks, when it comes to Scottish heraldry, do yourself a favour. Don't rely on Wikipedia; get one of the following books:

    Scotland's Heraldic Heritage by Charles J. Burnett and Mark D. Dennis
    Scots Heraldry by Sir Thomas Innes of Learney
    Scottish Clan and Family Encyclopedia by Geo. Way of Plean and Romilly Squire;
    Scottish Heraldry Made Easy by G. Harvey Johnston
    Simple Heraldry by Sir Iain Moncrieff of that Ilk and Don Pottenger

    As is often said, information on Wikipedia is worth every penny you pay for it.
