[Long Marble Green Line]
Clan Septs and Dependents comprise those who were descended from the Chief through the female line and consequently bore a different surname; and those who sought and obtained the protection of the Clan and became dependents. Anyone who has an ancestor bearing a Sept name, or the Clan name itself, has the privilege of wearing or displaying the Crest Badge and the tartan of the clan.

A detailed account of the Formation of Clan Septs is provided by Clan Campbell Society - Nova Scotia in the Clan Campbell pages.
