Clan Thom(p)son Society
A Proud Border Reiving Family

The

Thom(p)sons

were

one

of

the

Reiving

families

of

the

lawless

Anglo-Scottish

borderlands.

For

the

best

part

of

300

years,

the

Border

Reivers

raided

on

both

sides

of

the

border

from

Dumfriesshire

to

the

high

wastes

of

East

Cumbria,

from

Roxburghshire

to

Redesdale,

and

from

the

lonely

valley

of

Liddesdale,

to

the

fortress

city

of

Carlisle

and east to Edinburgh.

During

the

Lowland

Clearances,

Clan

Thomson

was

decimated

by

removals

to

America,

Australian

penal

colonies,

England's

armies,

Ireland

and

elsewhere.

The

women

married

into

other

names

and

the

fact

that

Thomsons

had

BEEN

a

clan/family

was

largely

forgotten.

For

a

period

of

more

than

40

years,

there

are

no

recorded

Thomson

births

in the region and the clan disappeared from view and history.

However,

research

begun

in

2008

revealed

Thomsons

had

been

a

clan

in

the

Borders

at

least

as

early

as

the

1400s

and

had

been

specifically

included

by

name

in

two

separate

Acts

of

the

Scottish

Parliament.

In

2012,

Lord

Lyon

recognized

Clan

Thompson

International

(Clan

Thom(p)son

Society)

as

the

only

clan/society

representing Thom(p)sons worldwide.

Thom(p)sons,

although

claimed

as

septs

by

numerous

clans,

are,

and always have been, an independent lowland clan.

Lord

Lyon

also

determined

the

spelling

of

the

name

would

include

the

"p"

as

being

more

common

in

the

diaspora

-

both

names

are

the

same.

Join

us

as

we

continue

to

make

discoveries

about

our

past

and

help

other Thom(p)sons find theirs.

The Thom(p)sons were one of the Reiving

families of the lawless Anglo-Scottish

borderlands. For the best part of 300 years, the

Border Reivers raided on both sides of the

border from Dumfriesshire to the high wastes of

East Cumbria, from Roxburghshire to Redesdale,

and from the lonely

valley of Liddesdale, to

the fortress city of

Carlisle and east to

Edinburgh.

During the Lowland

Clearances, Clan Thomson was decimated by

removals to America, Australian penal colonies,

England's armies, Ireland and elsewhere. The

women married into other clans and the fact

that Thomsons had BEEN a clan was largely

forgotten. For a period of more than 40 years,

there are no recorded Thomson births in the

region and the clan disappeared from view and

history.

However, research begun in 2008 revealed

Thomsons had been a clan in the Borders at

least as early as the 1400s and had been

specifically included by name in two separate

Acts of the Scottish Parliament. In 2012, Lord

Lyon recognized Clan Thompson International

(Clan Thom(p)son Society) as the only

clan/society representing Thom(p)sons

worldwide.

Thom(p)sons,

although claimed as

septs by numerous

clans, are and

always have been

an independent

clan.

Lord Lyon also determined the spelling of

the name would include the "p" as being more

common in the diaspora - both names are the

same

Join us as we continue to make discoveries

about our past and help other Thom(p)sons find

theirs.
