    We have at least three Lairds of Lochaber and one Lady of Lochaber who are members of this forum. I am sure they are intelligent people who are aware that the little ownership certificate which they bought is no more than a souvenir of their visit to Scotland and their use of a title in their signature here is a little piece of harmless fun. Though it seems like easy money for the people who market this sort of thing.
    What does annoy me though is posers who make totally false claims of nobility and who wear feathers at Scottish gatherings to which they are not entitled.
    This new website should afford a good way of checking out the credentials of some of the suspects.
    Regional Director for Scotland for Clan Cunningham International, and a Scottish Armiger.
