Family Name and Clan
Sorry for being out of the net for so long. My motorcycle and I were run down by another vehicle on January 31. It's taken me a while to recooperate.
I guess I'm testing the waters. I for one, believe it is important (at least for myself) that I have some justifiable basis for wearing a particular tartan. Before anyone gets overly upset - this is my own personal belief. A belief I do not suggest should be forced on others.
If I'm correct and if my ancestry possesses the family name that matches a sept or a clan, I submit I'm empowered to wear the tartan of that clan. I understand this to be true from the Clan Chief's web site and believe I can safetly say that several if not many others on this site agree.
Is there some flaw in my assumption?
