Clans

Historical and Political people

- accommodated by the project Historical Fife (Link to follow) which covers the History of Fife and historical/political people. Some of these are also listed in the Famous people category.

Famous or Notable People

Those people of note with connections to the county are listed below. Some of these connections are a little tenuous - counties like to lay claim to people of renown! Please visit Fife - Famous People and add them to the listing there.
