Clan Hunter Ancient Scottish Tartan Kilt
Clan Hunter is a historic Scottish clan with roots traced to the 12th century during the reign of David I of Scotland. The family was granted lands known as Hunter’s Toune and served loyally as royal foresters of Arran and Little Cumbrae. In 1374, William Hunter received a land charter from Robert II of Scotland, establishing the clan’s stronghold at Hunterston Castle.
In the 15th and 16th centuries, Clan Hunter members such as John Hunter died alongside their kings in battles like Flodden (1513) and Pinkie (1547). By the 17th century, Hunters shifted focus from warfare to estate management. A notable descendant, Robert Hunter, became Governor of Virginia and New York, contributing significantly to colonial administration.
During the 18th and 19th centuries, financial revival came through Eleanora Hunter and her husband Robert Caldwell Hunter, who built Hunterston House. Their lineage included military leaders like Sir Aylmer Hunter-Weston, who served in the Boer War, WWI, and at Gallipoli.
The modern era saw resistance to industrialization from Neil Hunter, Olympic silver medallist and the final Chief of Clan Hunter. His legacy symbolizes the enduring pride and resilience of Clan Hunter of Hunterston.
