I think, ScotKiwi, that you are missing the point.
Lord Lyon will recognise a person as Chief of a Clan if their clan appears on the list in my first post. Frith is not now, nor ever was a big Scottish name (if at all).
Tracing the ancestry is not enough, at all. It would have to be Frith ancestry. The name Frith would have to be recorded as being born or from Scotland.
At the moment there are almost 1/4 of a million Polish people living and working and producing babies in Scotland. In 20 years time, will Lord Lyon recognise Clan Belowovski? No. Why not, if they are born in Scotland. Because the name Belowovski (like Frith) does not appear on the list.
I am sorry, ScotKiwi, but you are going to waste a lot of time and a considerable amount of money on something that can never be achieved. It is predestined to fail.
You would be far better off, getting some Friths together and approaching another Clan with the idea of joining them. Then you would have a Chief and a clan structure around you.
Sorry
