| I'm descended from a
long line of proud Scottish highlanders, namely the Frasers of Lovat.
Not knowing the whole clan this is a broad statement but more often than
not we are loyal, creative, stubborn and a wee bit mad. "Je
Suis Prest" is French for "I am ready" Our name a derivative of the French word for a strawberry.
The Frasers of Lovat are descendants of Sir Simon Fraser who was the brother of Alexander who was Robert the Bruce's chamberlain. The Lovat family seat is Beauly, Inverness-shire. Beauly was founded circa 1320 by John Bisset, who built Lovat Castle. Castle Dounie was home to the chiefs of Lovat from 1511 until it was burned after Culloden. Beaufort Castle was built in the 1880's and sold in 1995. |
