8. Fraser of Altyre Clan Tartan Tartan Number: 528. Earliest known date: (c.1850) Proportional count of silk sample from Messrs Andersons of Edinburgh (now Kinloch Anderson). MacGregor-Hastie was of the opinion that the sett could be dated to around 1850, based on the story of an 'old lady' (c.1938) who said that a kilt of this pattern had been in the family for generations. The MacGregor-Hastie collection is housed at the Scottish Tartans Museum, Stirling. (1994) See products available Copyright © Blair Urquhart, Comrie, 2015 — ΔT 1.07
9. Kerr Clan Tartan Tartan Number: 791. Earliest known date: 1842 The Kerrs are believed to be of Viking descent, arriving in the Borders of Scotland by way of France. The Kerrs of Ferniehurst lived near Jedburgh. The Marquesses of Lothian now live at Monteviot. The true origin of the tartan is unknown as the claims of antiquity in the Vestiarium Scoticum, where this sett first appears, are doubtful.
