The Clan Phail Society in North America forms
part of the international Clan Phail Society which
was formed in 1993 and is headquartered in the
United Kingdom. The international society is led by Mr. John
Mackfall, a
member of the Clan Chattan Council. This
Council consists of the chiefs or family
representatives of the various clans comprising
Clan Chattan and is presided over by the
hereditary Chief of Clan Chattan, Mr. John
Mackintosh of Mackintosh.
There are several different branches of Clan Phail, but the society represents them all and gives us a cohesiveness and common purpose.
Both the International and North American Clan Phail Societies embrace those persons whose ancestral clan ties may have been to other clans than Clan Chattan or whose ties to Clan Chattan are unclear at this time.
Membership
Membership in the Clan Phail Society in North America is open to (i) any individual bearing a surname of a Clan Phail family; (ii) any individual descended from someone who bore a Clan Phail surname; and (iii) any other individual who is interested in Clan Phail.
