Clan Maitland Society welcomes all people with these names (or descended from someone with these names) as kinsfolk. We believe that we are descended from one individual, called Mautalent, who lived in Normandy around 1000 to 1050 because the name is unusual, can be easily traced and because there are historic records which indicate that the name was taken as a personal nickname and only used by descendants of the first Mautalent to use it.

Lauderdales, mainly an American family, have clear evidence of their descent from the Maitlands.

Maitlen and Maizlan are also considered variants of Maitland

All who bear these names, or are descended from those who bear these names or their variants are welcome.
