There has been no official chief of Clan Ewen for many generations. The last formally acknowledged chief of Clan Ewen of Otter, Swene McEwen, died in 1493. The Lord Lyon in Scotland is organizing a Family Convention to determine whether the chiefship of Clan Ewen should now be reestablished and perhaps to appoint a chief. [In 2014, the Lord Lyon provisionally re-established Clan Ewing with Thor Ewing as Commander.  A chief is to be appointed at a later time. -Ed] The articles in this collection discuss the possible involvement that the Ewing Family Association can have in the deliberations at the Family Convention.
