Clan Gartshore is an armigerous lowland Scottish Clan from Dumbartonshire.[1]

The name comes from lands of that name in the parish of Kirkintilloch in Dumbartonshire. There are references to the Gartshore Clan as far back as the late 12th century.[2] Thomas Watson describes the earliest emergence of the clan in his 1894 book on Kirkintilloch.[3]
