CLAN McLEAN

Clan McLean, Quebec, Canada, Inc., is a fully-autonomous corporation constituted in 1989, under Part III of the Loi sur Compagnies (I.R.Q., Chap 38, a218.)

In November 1993, the Clan was formally accepted as a branch of Clan MacLean Association International of Scotland, from which it holds a Charter of Incorporation for Quebec.

The Clan has been created with the purpose of regrouping all McLean families in Quebec; i.e., persons bearing , either by birth or by marriage, the surnames MCLEAN/MACLEAN in any of the various forms and spellings, or that of any of its recognized septs - Beaton, Black, Gillan, Lean, MacCormick, MacFadyn, MacGillivray, Maclaine, MacVey, MacVay, Paton, Peden, Ranken, Rankin, Rankine.

The object of the association is to revive, foster and promote clan interests and sentiments in Quebec and abroad by collecting and preserving records and traditions which relate in any way to clan history.

Since its foundation, Clan McLean, Quebec, Canada, Inc., has averaged a yearly membership of seventy, coming from four different families of McLean. Many interesting gatherings have been held since 1989, and a journal, "La Claymore", has become the main means of communication between members. The clan is represented on the Council of the Clan McLean Association International, and now though the Internet there is a further opportunity to maintain close contacts with the numerous world wide branches.
