I'm the only kilt-wearer in my family (extended family included) as well. It's surprising what can happen in a few a generations. The immigrating patriarch of my family was, according to all accounts, incredibly proud to be Scottish, and was both a well-known political figure and one of the founding members of the Utah Caledonia Society.
Fast-forward 120 years, and it's just me, trying to revive that sense of pride in our heritage.
(And for those that think 120 years is a long time, I remember listening to my great grandmother talk about the Civil War veterans she knew when she was a little girl!)
