£15.00Skirving is a Lowland Scottish surname taken from the lands of Skirvane in East Lothian, recorded heraldically as "Skirving and all that Ilk." It was among the commonest surnames in and around Haddington by the eighteenth century. The family produced several notable individuals rather than a chiefly line: Black John Skirving is said to have carried the Earl Marischal's standard at the Battle of Flodden in 1513, while the eighteenth-century farmer-poet Adam Skirving is remembered for the satirical song "Hey, Johnnie Cope, Are Ye Waking Yet?" His son Archibald Skirving became a noted portrait painter whose works hang in the Scottish National Portrait Gallery. Skirving functions as a landed Lowland family name rather than a clan with a recognized chief.
