I have a Gunn Crest pendant in silver, passed down from my grandfather and his grandfather, etc. The hallmarks go back to the early 1800's - so it's relatively young, but it makes me proud to be descended from this warrior clan. Willis was the name.

@Manyfeathers22 Thanks for the comment. I'm proud I just traced my Wilson family back to Scotland in Fife and Orkney.

@MeVinson37 Gunni The Viking!

[MeVinson37]

Do you mean it had "Clan Gunn" beneath the crest? That's optional. The crest on my hat doesn't have it. The one I pin a shire does. My ancestors are Wilsons too. Aut Pax Aut Bellum means "Either Peace or War".

[wrobinson7]

Thanks for posting. There is another sept that is still with the Gunn's, and that is the Robinson's. At least, my branch of the family. It's important to honor where you came from.

aut pax aut bellum man thats my fathers crest but the clan gunn got separated
