Representing an ancient clan whose continuing line of Fifer chiefs dates back to the mid 15th. century, the Society is here to promote the spirit of Clan fellowship, Scottish traditions and friendly relations with other clan societies.
We are building a knowledge base about Wood history and culture, genealogy, individuals' achievements and lots more besides.
The Society provides a supportive link between members.
The wearing of the Clan tartan is encouraged.
We aim to establish close ties with Clan Wood organisations throughout the world.

To all the hundreds of you who visited our clan tent
during the international Gathering in Edinburgh,
we send our sincere thanks for your keen interest and support.
We learnt much from all those encouraging responses
and heard numerous fascinating family stories.
The Council is always keen to see the Clan represented at similar events throughout the world. Invitations from organisers are welcome. They and people wanting to take part should write to the Secretary by clicking on Contact Us.
