Family names associated with Clan Cumming
I am in my 70's and only until the past 4-5 years have I noticed that the family names Landrum and Lendrem have been added as a sept of Cummming. As I found no references or an authority for Scottish septs. Per my inquiry, the Office of the Lord Lyon referred me to the Standing Council of Scottish Chiefs. A response from MacLaren of MacLaren informed me that there is no authority for sept names, and that sept names are known by tradition only. My question is, when information is added, I believe there should either be references provided or a statement in the notes stating that certain information is by tradition only.
