The surname Colquhoun has an interesting history, particularly for those of Irish descent. The Colquhoun name originates from the Scottish Highlands, where the Colquhoun clan resided. The clan's ancestors were said to have settled in Scotland from Ireland during the 12th century.
The Colquhouns were known for their strength and bravery, and they played a significant role in Scottish history. They were originally part of the MacGregor clan but later established themselves as an independent clan.
It is believed that the Colquhouns of Ireland are descended from a branch of the Scottish clan. During the Plantation of Ulster in the 17th century, many Scottish families, including the Colquhouns, migrated to Ireland. They settled mainly in counties Antrim and Donegal, where they became prominent landowners and played a part in shaping Irish society.
Over time, the Colquhoun name in Ireland became anglicized to various spellings, such as Colhoun or Colhoon. Many descendants of the Irish Colquhouns eventually emigrated to other countries, including the United States, Canada, and Australia.
Today, those with the Colquhoun surname, particularly of Irish descent, can trace their lineage back to the Scottish Highlands and the proud heritage of the Colquhoun clan.
