Hi
I can trace my Craw ancsetors back to about 1550. They come from Edinburgh and later, other parts of Midlothian. However I cannot find any reference to the Craw family as a sept a clan.
Is it the case that some families, such as the Craws, cannot be "related" to a particular clan.
I would appreciate any comments.
thanks
John Bird

The little book I have [which was published by Collins but free with a Sunday newspaper] says that the district source for Craw is East Berwickshire [Auchincraw] 14th C.
