The Clan Dhai Association

forerunner of

the current Clan Davidson Association,

which re-formed in 1990

The Association of the Clan Dhai was formed in 1909 and soon gathered many Davidsons

and their families as members. The Association published its membership list in 1912. It is

this list which forms the basis of the information that we have shown below.

Today, this early membership list forms an important part of our Clan Davidson Historical

Archive. In recent years, we have been able to identify far more detail about many of the

families included.

Please do contact us if you believe your family was part of the membership at any time.

List of Members

We have edited some details from this list to make it more readable

and added a few portraits found in recent years.

Postal Codes as we know them today did not exist in 1912.

Ireland was still one entity as a country.
