Clan Ewen is defined
as an armigerous clan. This means that it is a clan
without a chief, and is officially led by its armigers.
This page shows examples of some of the arms granted by
Lyon Court to people with surnames associated with the
clan.

Arms of
MacEwan of Muckley, 1743.
Muckley was descended from the MacDougall
chiefs, and takes the MacEwan name from Ewan Mor
MacDougall of Balinreoch; the lion here is
derived from the arms of MacDougall.

Arms of
MacEwan of Glenboig,
1796.
Usually in Scottish heraldry, all armigers of
the same surname bear related coats of arms, but
Glenboig is quite unlike any others within the
clan.
Motto: Pervicax Recti |

Arms of
McEwen of Marchmont and Bardrochat.
These arms are clearly related to the earlier
arms of MacEwan of Muckley.
Motto: Reviresco |

Arms of
Ewing, 1566.
These are the arms recorded for the name Ewing
in the Workman Armorial. This armorial is dated
1566, making this by far the earliest grant of
arms within the clan.
Motto: Audaciter |
