"A Stout Heart in a New Land"

Welcome to
A Family Named Herriott

WITH ALL OF ITS VARIANT SPELLINGS

including Harriot, Harriott, Herriot, Heriot, Harriett, Herritt, Hariot, Hereot . . .

The Herriott Heritage Association (HHA), a non-profit organization in the United States of America, sponsors this website. Information is presented on the Herriott name, coat of arms, early family history from our Scottish roots to early Herriotts in America, the HHA organization, Herriott genealogy (particularly in the United States), national/international Herriott reunions, and the Herriott Herald newsletter. Also available is our book, A Family Named Herriott.

We are conducting the Herriott Surname Project which seeks to use DNA testing to further establish our roots and relationships among the various "Herriott" branches.

We had a great 2009 International Reunion in Scotland!

There are no dues for the HHA and everyone who is a Herriott descendant (any of its variant spellings), whether or not they still carry the Herriott name itself, are considered members of the HHA. All members are encouraged to become active by any of a variety of ways including contributing to the genealogical research, subscribing to the Herriott Herald, making contributions to the HHA fund, attending reunions, etc.
