Some sources report that there are sixty different Ham clans, but only the KangnÅng Ham clan can be documented. Although some records have been lost and a few generations are unaccounted for, it is known that the founding ancestor of the Ham clan is Ham Kyu, a KoryÅ general who fought against the Mongol invaders in the thirteenth century. His ancestor, Ham HyÅk, was a Tang Chinese general who stayed in Korea after Tang China helped Shilla unify the peninsula during the seventh century. Another of Ham HyÅk’s ancestors, Ham Shin, accompanied Kim Chu-wÅn, the founding ancestor of the KangnÅng Kim family, to the KangnÅng area, and hence the Ham clan became the KangnÅng Ham clan. The first prominent ancestor from KangnÅng whose genealogy can be verified is Ham Kyu, the KoryÅ general. Accordingly, he is regarded as the KangnÅng Ham clan’s founding ancestor.

English and Dutch : from Latin Marcus, the personal name of St. Mark the Evangelist, author of the second Gospel. The name was borne also by a number of other early Christian saints. Marcus was an old Roman name, of uncertain (possibly non-Italic) etymology; it may have some connection with the name of the war god Mars. Compare Martin.
