Clan Lennox has its origins in the ancient Earls of Lennox who controlled Dunbartonshire and parts of Renfrewshire, Stirlingshire and Perthshire in Scotland beginning in the 12th Century. For centuries, the earls were involved in politics – and intrigue – and were often in the middle of struggles for power and wealth.

The Scottish diaspora sent Lennox people around the world with significant numbers now residing in Australia, Canada, England, New Zealand and the United States. Lennox people have excelled in academics, medicine, law, science, business and all walks of life.

The purpose of the Clan is to bring people sharing the Lennox name together for friendship and fellowship and to promote their heritage, as well as the history and heritage of Scotland, Great Britain, and all the countries where Lennox people settled.

Whether a direct descendant of one of the Earls, or of more ordinary lineage, all people with the Lennox surname, or who descend from a Lennox, are deemed members of the Clan and invited to participate in Clan activities, and to initiate activities on their own!
