Clan An Cu was formed in 1998 by a group of long-time Civil War reenactors who
were looking for a new challenge. Their aim was to give as accurate a portrayal as
possible of the early Scottish settlers of Georgia, as well as those who fought for Scottish
independence during the risings of the late-17th to mid-18th centuries. Each man wears
clothing accurate to the period, made of real Scottish tartan material, and carries
historically accurate traditional weapons and accoutrements.
Clan An Cu portrayed the Highlanders in History Uncovered, a new movie developed for
Fort Frederica National Monument. The group sets up living history encampments at
Highland games and Celtic festivals across the Southeast. They are regulars at
Blairsville, Culloden and Savannah and their clansmen have attended events at Indian
Springs, and Stone Mountain, GA, Tallahassee, FL, and Grandfather Mountain, NC.
Clan An Cu is at the heart of living history events at Forts Frederica and King George on
the Georgia coast as well as at the Federal Law Enforcement Training Center near
Brunswick.
The group has also participated in wilderness treks through the Cohutta
Wilderness and a boat trek from Fort King George to Fort Frederica. For additional
information on the clan, contact Chief Britt Brinson.
