The Clan MacArthur Society of the United States was founded in 1974.  Early in 1986, independent MacArthur Societies were established in Canada and Great Britain and, later, in New Zealand, Australia, and Southern Africa. The Society's name was changed in 2004 to "MacArthur Society of the US, A Branch of Clan Arthur" to reflect its symbiosis with the other societies.

The Societies remain closely affiliated, sharing the same interests and ties and exchanging news and ideas through our global award-winning newsletter, “The Round Table.”

Objectives of our society parallel those of its sister groups but, specifically to: 

Ø      Cultivate a spirit of kinship among our clan folk, restore and maintain close ties with other MacArthurs everywhere.

Ø      Collect, preserve, publish, and disseminate data that pertains to Clan Arthur and the MacArthurs and maintain such files in the Ellen Odom Genealogical Library in Moultrie, GA, and any other such determined repository.

Ø      Support and encourage the research of all MacArthur genealogical records and data by the Society’s Genealogical Committee and the publication and exchange of such findings to benefit all MacArthurs.

Ø      Make available awards and scholarships to applicants who seek to study, learn, and compete in certain of the Scottish arts including, but not limited to, piping, dancing, fiddling, harpistry, history, etc.

Ø Inspire our members by helping to inculcate a spirit of pride in the Scottish lifestyle that has contributed so significantly in shaping our modern social structure.
