Tartan Details - Unidentified 18th Century

The information held within The Scottish Register of Tartans for the "Unidentified 18th Century" tartan is shown below. 

STA ref: 3027
STWR ref: none
Designer: Not Specified
Tartan date: 01/01/1859
Registration date: This tartan was recorded prior to the launch of The Scottish Register of Tartans.
Category: Other
Restrictions:
Registration notes: From the Carmichael Collection via the Scottish Tartans Society who purchased it from Telfer Dunbar and who now own it. This looks as if it's meant to be the same tartan as #6241 (original Scottish Tartans Authority reference) which took its count from a Sindex card. Don't know which is correct. What justifies this being 18th century is not noted. The plaid at #6241 (original Scottish Tartans Authority reference) is said to have belonged to a Dunbar Grandfather who died in 1859.

Please note

Where tartans were recorded before the establishment of the Scottish Register of Tartans (SRT) on 5 February 2009, the original Scottish Tartans Authority (STA) and the Scottish Tartans World Register (STWR) reference numbers have been retained. The new SRT reference number can be found in the address box on your browser (url).

The registration criteria now applied by the Register conforms to the Scottish Register of Tartans Act 2008. These criteria are different to those previously applied by either the STA or the STWR. You may wish to refer to the STA website for further information on the original recording of this tartan.
