Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book explores the origins of the House of Ross, one of the most influential families in Scottish history, whose dynasty of Earls of Ross spanned almost 500 years. The author contends that, contrary to previous historical accounts, the Rosses were not descended from the MacWilliams, the native rulers of Moray, but originated in France as part of the Norman invasion in the twelfth century. The book delves into the historical record to support this theory, examining the family's enigmatic coat of arms, their early charters and land purchases, and their marriage alliances. This re-evaluation of the Rosses' origins sheds new light on their role in medieval Scotland and provides a fresh perspective on the complex relationships between the Normans and the native Scottish elite.
