The Celtic Council of Australia Posthumously Awards Dr Robert Cameron Cyfaill y Celtiad (CyC) “The Friend of the Celts”

Members of National Clan Cameron Australia Inc. attended the 40th Anniversary of The Celtic Council of Australia on 12 November 2022 where Dr Robert Stewart (Bob) Cameron was posthumously awarded Cyfaill y Celtiad (CyC) (from Welsh – ‘Friend of the Celts’) for his years of dedicated service to Clan Cameron and to the wider Scottish and Celtic communities.

In 1983 Dr Cameron initiated the re-establishment of the NSW Clan Cameron Association, and served as Clan Cameron Australia Commissioner and as Clan Cameron NSW Inc President. He was instrumental in initiating and maintaining a wealth of Cameron genealogical data that is available on this website. Dr Robert’s son, Dr Stewart Cameron, continues that genealogical work today.

This was Dr Bob Cameron’s third Celtic Council award, having already being awarded Duine Uasal (Post nominal – D Ua) (from the Irish language – “Honoured Person/(Celtic) Gentleman or woman”) and Duine Urramach (D Urr) ( from Scots Gaelic – “Noble Person/Honoured Person”)
