My last name is one that could be Irish or Scottish, but in my case it's technically Scottish. I think it was my great-grandfather on my father's side who came over from Scotland. Or it was his father. No one ever gives me an answer that makes any sense. In order to find out my clan association, I probably need to research for my family individually, especially since my last name is only very tenuously linked to the MacKay clan. People squabble over whether my last name is a variation of this other last name or not, so no one's entirely sure.

If you're sure you're Scottish, try http://houseoftartan.com as well. They fully recognize my surname as being a part of the MacKay clan, which is nice, since I'm sure the website is reputable.

Unless I'm mistaken, there's a Clan Ross, right? Which is neat. I bet Hoog is a lot more difficult to find information on, though...

My grandfather's mother's name was MacCurdy, which is from the clan MacKirdy. I think that's my only Scottish root. I'm one half miscellaneous Celt. :D

I meant Hogg, not Hoog.
Ata a local place they have hogg as being Scottish, and my real last name, Callanan, is Irish.
