Douglas |

Clan Douglas, also
referred to as the House of Douglas, is an ancient
family from the Scottish Lowlands taking its name from
Douglas, South Lanarkshire, and thence spreading through
the Scottish Borderland, Angus, Lothian and beyond. The
clan does not currently have a chief, therefore it is
considered an armigerous clan. The Douglases were once the most powerful family in Scotland. The chiefs held the titles of the Earl of Douglas, and following their forfeiture the chieftancy devolved upon the Earl of Angus (see also: Duke of Hamilton). The 4th Earl of Morton held the chieftaincy during the 16th century, the Earldom of Morton was then a subsidiary title of the 8th Earl of Angus after the 4th Earl's forfeiture and death in 1581. The family's original seat was Douglas Castle in Lanarkshire, but they spread to many properties throughout Southern and North-Eastern Scotland. |
