Registration notes: |
From W & A K Johnson's 1906 book. Scottish Tartans Society records another very close to this as 842 which includes a black - probably blue originally. The count for 842 is G4, R4, A4, K4, R42, G4, R4, B12, R4, G4, R6, G38, R4, A4, K4, R6 . Scottish Tartans Society notes: The Stewarts of Appin feuded relentlessly with the Campbells, and they were supported in these pursuits and other military activities by some of the Clan MacColl, whose tartan is very similar. The Stewarts of Ardshiel, a branch of the Appin Clan, have a certified tartan of their own dating back to the 1820's, which has elements of the Appin design. Stewarts of Appin are descended from Dugald, the son of Sir John Stewart of Lorne who was murdered in 1463. |
