Thanks to scotCLANS for allowing me to use the information on their history page. There is a wealth of information on their site that is well worth browsing.
For a wonderful interactive clan map be sure to visit Lochcarron of Scotland‘s page here.
Another great site about Scottish history and culture is ElectricScotland and on their page here there are several detailed accounts of the Ogilvie family history.
For some great information about the national flower of Scotland, the Scottish thistle, follow this link to the Serenata Flowers site. On this page you will also find many more links to pages describing the origins and meaning behind this humble thistle.

would the Ogilvie family of Montreal, Quebec, Canada ( arrived 1800) be related to the Ogilvie families of Australia ?
Jill, absolutely – we’ve looked into this ourselves. A lot of the Canadian Ogilvys created substantial wealth through wheat farming I believe.
