Old photograph of buildings on Wemyss Place in Methil, Fife, Scotland. The surname Wemyss was first found in Fife, where they held a family seat from very ancient times as Lords of the Castle of Wemyss, so named from the Gaelic word Uamch (a cave) derived from the lands and cliffs in which caves abound on the seashore. Spelling variations of this family name include: Wemyss, Weems, Wemys, Wemes and others.
