- Home or Hume Clan Tartan Tartan Number: 127. Earliest known date: 1842 D.W.Stewart says, "The tartan of the ancient and notable family of Home, though differing in colour, has the same scheme as the Grey Douglas. Both first appear in the Vestiarium Scoticum." Border 'Clans' are mentioned in an Act of the Scottish Parliament in 1587, but no evidence of a Clan tartan exists before the earliest date given here.
