Preserving History. Connecting Descendants.

Lanarkshire, Scotland

Welcome to the website of the Clan Crawford Association (CCA)

Discover the rich history of the Crawford surname and the vibrant culture of the Clan where members unite to celebrate their Scottish heritage and family lineage

The Association was incorporated in 2006 and is also legally registered under the name The House of Crawford. We are a member of the Council of Scottish Clans and Associations.

In 2012 we were issued Letters Patent from the Court of the Lord Lyon granting a coat of arms that integrates the designs of the two main branches of the House, Crawfordjohn and Dalmagregan.

The CCA represents the historic Scottish House of Crawford, also known today as Clan Crawford. If you are a Crawford or a descendant of Crawfords, no matter how you spell the surname (Crawford, Craufurd, Crafoord, Crafford, etc.), we would like to invite you to join our association.

We are recognized by the U.S. Internal Revenue Service as a 501 (c)3 non-profit association open to all Crawfords. Our main function is to gather and advance the study of our history and traditions. We have a long and proud history within Scotland and in many countries around the world where Scots have settled and contribute meaningfully to their new communities.
