Registration notes: A tartan for David John McCluskey and his family. It was inspired by his wife Lyn, and their two children who were born in Aberdeen, Scotland. The design is intended to represent the family history, the places they have lived, and their ancestors who travelled and lived on many continents. The colours were chosen by the family members and have specific meanings for them: blue, chosen by their son David & his family, represents the vast and mighty Atlantic Ocean as well as the warm Pacific Ocean coastlines; purple, favoured by their daughter Laura & family and David’s late mother Elizabeth, is intended to evoke images of heather covered hills and Scottish thistles; red is for the colour of the maple leaf of Canada and black signifies the coal hauled and sold by David’s father and grandfather many years ago.
