Clan MacQueen

Constant and Faithful

MacQueen, also written MacSween or MacSwain, was of Hebridean and West Highland origin and appears to have been originally associated with Clan Donald. In the fifteenth century Macqueen clansmen came north in the wedding party of Mora MacDonald of Moidart when she married Calum Beg Mackintosh, 10th of Mackintosh; from them came the Macqueens of Corrybrough in Strathdearn, known as Clan Revan, who became part of the Clan Chattan confederation. The Corrybrough lands were lost at the end of the eighteenth century.

Crest & Motto

Clan MacQueen Crest Badge & Motto

The motto of Clan MacQueen is Constant and Faithful. It appears on the Clan MacQueen crest badge: the chief’s heraldic crest set inside a strap and buckle that carries the motto.

In Scotland a crest belongs to the chief, not to everyone with the surname. Clan members may wear the crest badge, with the crest inside the strap and buckle, to show that they belong to the clan. The plain crest without the strap remains the chief’s own.

Questions about Clan MacQueen

Is MacQueen the same name as MacSween?

They are closely linked, but the origin is not settled: suggested roots include the Gaelic Suibhne, MacCuinn ('son of Conn') and the Norse name Sweyn. COSCA lists MacSween, MacSwain and MacSweeney among the recorded variations of MacQueen.

Does Clan MacQueen have a chief?

No. The Corrybrough lands were lost at the end of the eighteenth century; the chief John Fraser died in 1881 and the title passed to his brother, whose son emigrated to New Zealand and was the last known chief. COSCA records no chief or commander for MacQueen, and the Standing Council of Scottish Chiefs lists no MacQueen chief.

What is the Macqueen connection to Clan Donald?

The Macqueens were of Hebridean and West Highland origin and appear to have been originally associated with Clan Donald, settling in Strathdearn after accompanying Mora MacDonald of Moidart to her wedding with a Mackintosh chief. In 1778 Lord Macdonald of Sleat wrote that 'the Macqueens have been invariably attached to our family'.

What is the MacQueen motto?

Constant and Faithful.
