Johan Ennes (f. omkr. 1600, d. 1658 i Hälsingborg), handlande i Hälsingborg.
Anges ha inkommit från Ostfriesland till Skåne.
Enligt familjetraditionen skulle han ha varit född i Emden, ursprungligen ha hetat John Innes och varit son till en skotte med samma namn, vilken för religionsförföljelses skull på 1580-talet flyttat från Skottland till Emden i Ostfriesland, där han blivit handlande.
De skulle varit medlemmar av den skotska adelssläkten Innes.
Denna är känd sedan medeltiden, och dess huvudmän voro chefer för klanen Innes. Adelssläkten, som alltjämt existerar i Skottland, har innehaft många olika adliga värdigheter.
Traditionsuppgifterna om släkten Ennes' härkomst från nämnda ätt synas vara omöjliga att kontrollera och så mycket mer svårkontrollerbara, som namnet Innes även är klannamn.
I ett 1864 av C. Innes utgivet arbete av D. Forbes, »Ane account of the familie of Innes compiled . . . 1698», vilket betecknas som ett vidlyftigt men oredigt arbete, föekommer visserligen en tydligen i tiden passande John Innes, om vilken det sägs: vad som blev av honom är icke känt. ...................

Chief
Clan Innes has no chief, and is an armigerous clan
Last Chief: Sir James Innes, 6th Baronet
Died: 19 July 1823
Clan Innes is a Scottish clan. The clan is without a chief that is recognized by the Lord Lyon King of Arms; therefore it can be considered an armigerous clan. The clan takes its name from the lands of Innes in Moray, Scotland.
Clan Innes claims descent from a Berowald, a Flemish knight, who was given the lands of Innes by Malcolm IV of Scotland in 1160. Berowald's grandson, Walter, assumed the surname Innes and was granted a charter of confirmation by Alexander II of Scotland in 1226. In 1452, Robert Innes, the eleventh laird, fought under the Earl of Huntly at the Battle of Brechin. He later founded the Greyfriars of Elgin in an attempt to repay for his sins. The twentieth chief of Clan Innes, Sir Robert, was a Member of Parliament for Moray and was made a baronet of Nova Scotia in 1625. The third baronet, Sir James, married Lady Margaret Ker (whom through the sixth baronent inherited the Ker dukedom of Roxburghe. The twenty-fifth chief (and sixth baronet), Sir James Innes, claimed the dukedom of Roxburghe in 1805 when the previous duke died without a direct heir. Later, in 1812 the House of Lords ruled in favour of Sir James, rejecting claims by the heir female of the second earl and heir male whatsoever of the first earl. Because of the ruling Sir James took the surname Innes-Ker and was titled James Innes-Ker, 5th Duke of Roxburghe.The present duke of Roxburghe is heir to the chiefship of the clan, however since he bears the surname Innes-Ker the Lord Lyon King of Arms will not recognise him as chief of the name Innes.
