2. Durie Clan Tartan Tartan Number: 2228. Earliest known date: 1988 When the matriculation of the Durie 'Arms' was updated in June 1988, this tartan was designed for family use by Harry G Lindlay of Kinloch & Anderson of Edinburgh. The design is said to be based on the Argyle & Southern Highlanders regimental tartan - the yellow is from the mess dress (military uniform evening wear) facings (lapels) and the burgundy represents the Durie family's French connections. Andrew, son of Lt. Col. Raymond Varley Dewar Durie succeded his father as clan chieftain in 1999. See products available Copyright © Blair Urquhart, Comrie, 2015 — ΔT 0.96

10. Cochrane (1984) Clan Tartan Tartan Number: 978. Earliest known date: 1984 Lord Dundonald originally registered a version missing a red and a green stripe in 1974. There is a story that a fragment of this design was discovered in the foundations of a Perthshire house in 1934. Around that time, a count was recorded from the sample books of Messrs William Anderson. The red and green have been restored in this version, which is now the 'approved' tartan, and appears in the 'Appendix' of the Lyon Court Books dated 12th November 1984.
