Cameron Arms at Ma Cameron's
Arms of Cameron of Lochiel (Clan Cameron) on the wall of Ma Cameron's Alehouse on Little Belmont Street, Aberdeen. According to Fox-Davies' Armorial Families, the blazon is Gules three bars or (as seen here), whilst Burke's General Armory has it as Gules two bars or (as seen on the Clan Cameron Wikipedia page: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Clan_Cameron . Both agree that the arms were matriculated in 1795, but were in use from a "remote period." The mantling is gules, doubled argent and the Crest: "on a wreath of his liveries, a sheaf of five arrows proper tied with a band gules." The supporters are two savages with Lochaber axes, all proper. The top motto in Gaelic is "Aonaibh Ri Chéile" ("Let us unite") and the bottom motto is "Mo Righ's Mo Dhuchaich" ("for King and country"). Clan Cameron were staunch Jacobites and fought alongside Charles Edward Stuart in the main battles of The '45 but after Culloden the Chief, Donald Cameron, was forced to flee to France.
