Clan Cumming

The Cummings descend from the medieval Comyns, who came to Scotland under David I and by the 13th century held the earldom of Buchan and the lordships of Badenoch and Lochaber. Their power ended when Robert the Bruce killed John Comyn at Dumfries in 1306 and defeated the family at Inverurie in 1308. The chiefship passed to the Cummings of Altyre in Moray, later Gordon-Cumming.
