St. Clare in Pont d'Eveque in Normandy
is generally thought to be the birthplace of this great northern
clan.
The family received a grant of the Barony of Roslin in Midlothian
during the twelfth century. Through marriage, the family obtained
the Earldom of Orkney, and in the next century received land in
Caithness. The earldom or kingdom of Orkney was later resigned
by order of James III.
