Clan Information: The Shaw’s played a considerable role in Highland history, and traces its ancestry to the old Earls of Fife and thus the royal line of the Scottish kings. The Shaw’s were the first Chiefs of Clan Mackintosh. The Clan name derives from Shaw "Mor" great-grandson of Angus, 6th Chief of Mackintosh, and Eva, heiress of Clan Chattan. By tradition, he led the Clan Chattan contingent to victory at the famed Clan Battle of the North Inch at Perth.
