Registration notes: This tartan was created by Leah Purdy for a Purdy Family reunion in August 2022. The design is intended to reflect Cape Breton Island, Nova Scotia, where the family have been for more than 200 years. The design also includes a tribute to Leah’s late grandmother Violet Purdy. Leah wrote a poem to go with the tartan: “Green trees of bonny Breton isle, wind-swept sentinels of old Blue mist rivers, lakes, and streams, and a defiant sun of Gold Grey fog shrouded rocky shores, and silver sea, and squall, and Violet, my island’s heart, makes family of us all.”
