Roger de Berchelai came to England with William the Conqueror
and was granted Berkeley Castle in Gloucestershire. This early
form of the name was believed to be the Anglo-Saxon version of
'beau' meaning beautiful, and 'lee', a meadow or field. Roger
was mentioned in the Domesday Book as well as his son, John. In
1069 John de Berchelai accompanied Margaret (later St. Margaret)
to Scotland. In gratitude for his service, King Malcolm
(Canmore) granted him the lands of Towie, near Turriff, in
Aberdeenshire, as well as the title, Barclay of that Ilk. 900
years of Barclay history in Scotland descend from John's three
sons, Walter, Alexander, and Richard.
The Barclays formed important alliances and held land throughout
the north-east of Scotland, principally Towie, Mathers, Gartley
and Pierston in Aberdeenshire. They also settled in Banff,
Collairnie in Fife, Brechin in Forfarshire and Stonehaven in
Kincardineshire. One family line settled on the west coast in
the Ardrossan and Kilbirnie areas in Ayrshire. Throughout
Scotland, they played important roles in national affairs.
