    New to forum, new to kilts: celebrating McCreary/MacRory family lineage

    Hi all,
    I’m Rick, aka tubino. I am invited to a wedding in Scotland next fall, and kilt-wearing is encouraged. This possibility has spurred me to highlight my mother‘s Scottish heritage through a MacCrory/McCreary line that was likely MacRory way back. From what I have read the MacRory line is associated with both the MacDonald and MacLaren clans, and I have insufficient genealogical information to say any more than that. The MacLaren tartan colors and pattern appeal to me, and on that flimsy basis I‘d like to get a quality kilt and tweed jacket. Ideally I‘d find a quality 8-yard wool kilt secondhand. I‘m here to learn.
