The clan has been described as one of the oldest clans in Argyll.

Arthur's
Arthur's was a London gentlemen's club, now dissolved, which was established in 1811 and was disbanded in 1940. Between 1827 and 1940 it was based at 69 St James's Street. It is now best remembered for having built the London clubhouse currently occupied by the Carlton Club. The club was first formed at a meeting at a bank at 16 St James's Street on 8 May 1811, with the resolution 'That a New Club be forthwith established, to consist of 300 Members.' The club is notable for being the first to be a ''members' club'' wholly owned by the members, as opposed to the ''proprietary clubs'' which previously existed, like White's, Boodle's, and Brooks's, and it accordingly served as the mould for most of the nineteenth century members'-owned clubs which followed. Members The original club committee consisted of eleven members. Six were Scots: * Sir David Hunter Blair, baronet (son of Sir James Hunter Blair, the banker and friend of Robert Burns) *James Hunter Blair (brother of the above ...
