Clan Blaikie


The Blaikie family is supposed to have come originally from the Borders but  in the Rebellion of 1715 the father of David Blaikie was called out of the ranks and shown to the Pretender as one of the finest Highlanders, being a very big man.  He had a grant of land from the Earl of Perth.  David married Mary Bisset and had two sons, John (born 1756) and Thomas (born 1762), the former being the father of Sir Thomas.  This large family is now scattered all over the world, in Australia, New Zealand, USA, England, South Africa and of course, Scotland.
