Clan Walker

Walker is an occupational surname for a waulker or fuller of cloth, and in Scotland it also renders the Gaelic Mac an Fhucadair ('son of the fuller'), anglicised as MacNucator. It is not a Highland clan with a chief of its own: Electric Scotland records that the MacNucators or Walkers of Argyll, especially Knapdale, descend directly from Clan MacMillan, and COSCA lists Walker among Clan MacMillan's associated surnames. A well-known bearer of the plain Lowland surname is Helen Walker of Kirkpatrick Irongray, Kirkcudbrightshire, who died in 1791 and inspired Sir Walter Scott's character Jeanie Deans.

Questions about Clan Walker

Is there a Clan Walker?

No. The Standing Council of Scottish Chiefs lists no Walker chief. Walker is an occupational surname - a waulker or fuller of cloth - that COSCA lists among the associated surnames of Clan MacMillan.

What does the surname Walker mean?

It describes a 'waulker' or fuller, someone who cleaned and thickened woollen cloth by trampling it in water. In Scotland the same trade gave the Gaelic name Mac an Fhucadair, anglicised as MacNucator.

How is Walker connected to Clan MacMillan?

Electric Scotland records that the MacNucators, or Walkers, of Argyll and especially Knapdale descend directly from Clan MacMillan, the Gaelic name later being rendered as Walker. COSCA lists Walker among Clan MacMillan's associated surnames.

Who was Helen Walker?

Helen Walker of Kirkpatrick Irongray, Kirkcudbrightshire (1710-1791) walked to London and successfully pleaded for the life of her younger sister Isabella, who had been sentenced to death. Sir Walter Scott based the character of Jeanie Deans in 'The Heart of Midlothian' on her, and paid for the monument erected over her grave in 1831.
