Clan Rutherford Tartan Kilt
Clan Rutherford, a recognized Lowland Scottish clan from the Borders region, holds a deep-rooted legacy in Scottish history. Though currently armigerous (without a chief recognized by the Lord Lyon King of Arms), the Rutherford clan is known for its fierce spirit and border resilience. The family name is believed to originate from a ford on the River Tweed, tied to either a heroic guide named Ruther or a decisive Scottish victory remembered as "Rue the Ford."
The Rutherfords first appeared in records around 1140 with Robertus de Rodyrforde, and were prominent throughout the centuries. In the 16th century, the Black Laird of Edgerston, Thomas Rutherford, famously turned the tide at the Battle of the Red Swire, capturing the English warden and reclaiming honor for the Scots. During the Civil War, the Rutherfords supported Charles I, and Andrew Rutherford, later Lord Rutherford, served valiantly before becoming Governor of Tangier.
Modern descendants include Andrew Rutherford, MP and Lord Advocate, and Ernest Rutherford, the Nobel Prize-winning scientist who pioneered nuclear physics. Today, remnants of the Rutherford legacy remain in Scotland and New Jersey, where a symbolic marriage between the Rutherford and Stuyvesant families once united feuding households.
