Which Clan?

[Tim Little]

While Little is a legitimate Scottish clan in its own right, I've always identified my highland ancestry with the Mackenzies 1) because that is the closest connection genealogically-speaking [my paternal grandmother's maiden name was McKenzie; her father hailed from Scotland], and 2) because she was the one who instilled my interest in Scotland and my Scottish heritage when I was young. All very intuitive, I think.

As I've dug deeper into my genealogy I've of course found other Scottish connections, but mostly lowland families and Borderers. So, if I'm honoring my highland bloodline by wearing highland dress, then Mackenzie it is!
