The name Baird comes from the Gaelic word for a
poet. The fortunes of the clan were started in the reign of William I,
"The Lion", when he made extensive grants to a member of the
clan who had saved his life from a wild boar. Later, a charter was
granted to Richard Baird of Meikle and Little Kyp in Lanarkshire, and in
the early 14th century Robert the Bruce granted the Barony of
Cambusnerthan, also in Lanarkshire, to Robert Baird. |
