If your name is Wood or any of its variations;
if you are the partner or a descendant of someone of the Name;
if you support our Aims listed below,
You are welcome to be a member of this Society.
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.
Just a small part of the Clan Village, Holyrood Park, Edinburgh

To all the hundreds of you who visited our clan tent
during the July international Gathering2009 in Edinburgh,
we send our sincere thanks for your keen interest and support.
We learnt much from all those encouraging responses,
and heard countless fascinating family stories.
We also realised that we could have sold more than twice
the number of neckties and scarves we had with us.
Lots more people can now proudly wear
the metal Clan Badge they purchased at the same time!
Call in to the Clan Shop in this website, where we like to
keep prices well below normal retail charges.
(The funds raised help to cover some of the costs borne by the Society
of proclaiming the clanship of the Woods at events such as this.)
