CLAN KEITH

Following World War II, a wave of clan and society activity was aided by formation of a "Standing Council of Scottish Chiefs". For the British Festival of 1951, a "Council of Clan Associations" was formed to handle Scotland's pageant and Gathering of the Clans in Edinburgh. The now familiar arrangement of tents and marquees resurrecting pageantry of medieval times and the march of the clans were displayed to fifty thousand visitors from many nations. Can societies proliferated near and far. By 1970, there were over fifty.
