MCMILLAN FAMILY CREST |
MCMILLAN CLAN CREST |
The Scottish surname McMillan is an anglicized form of the Gaelic name Mac Maoláin, a diminutive of maol meaning “bald, or tonsured.” The MacMillan clan descended from Airbertach, a Hebridean prince of the old royal house of Moray who according to one account was the great-grandson of King Macbeth. The first significant settlements of McMillans outside Scotland were probably in Northern Ireland in the 17th and 18th centuries as part of the Protestant “plantation”. Ulster McMillans were among the Scots-Irish who settled the east coast of America later that century - in the Carolinas especially - along with their cousins from Galloway, Knapdale and Kintyre. Other MacMillans from Argyll were among the earliest of Scots settlers further north; particularly in New York.
