When I read the OP in the middle of the night I needed sleep more than more time on the forum, so to bed.
With hopes that someone else would suggest Paisley district before I got back. They did. Yay! Folk here are
helpful that way. As you may have noted, they are also of varied mind and opinion. Again, yay! I will inject
into the variety the edict from Parliament (1597?) that the "clannis" of the borders should calm down and
cease their raiding. Apparently no one had bothered to inform them that clans only existed in the Highlands,
and they made the shocking assumption they knew what they were talking about. I tend to agree with them;
their opinion was the position of the time, and therefore the traditional view. So, if a border clan tartan is your
preference, have at it. If the tartan police pull you over, tell them I'll pay your fine for my part in this. There
will continue to be variance in opinion, YMMV.
