The CLAN GRAHAM SOCIETY
is an organization of the descendants of the families of the "Gallant
Grahams" of old Scotland. Its membership is made up of those Grahams who
know and who propagate the very distinguished accomplishments and
honorable ideals of the Grahams, past and present. Because of the large
number of Grahams in Scotland their wide dispersion all along the Highland
line was from Montrose on the North Sea to Loch Lomond (and further west),
down past Glasgow through the Lowlands to Carlisle on the Border.
Membership in the CLAN GRAHAM SOCIETY is open to all people
throughout North America, and any country who can claim Graham ancestry.
Organization and Policy
The affairs of the Society are directed by the elected and appointed
officers, six members-at-large, three Trustees, and the Regional
Commissioners who comprise the Council. They are elected at the Annual
General Meeting of the Society.
Policy, operations, and procedures are governed by the Bylaws of the
Society, adopted by the membership and amended by action of the Annual
General Meeting.
The CLAN GRAHAM SOCIETY meets annually during a gathering of the
clans. The Council may change the time and place of the Annual
General Meeting with prior adequate announcement.
Annual General Meetings
Each year the The Clan Graham Society holds an Annual General Meeting (AGM)
to socialize, conduct society business and elect Society officials.
Activities at the AGM typically include a dinner, attendance at the local
Highland Games and a ceilidh. Locations for future AGM's are:
