- Hannay Family Tartan Tartan Number: 1255. Earliest known date: c.1810-44 The Hannay tartan has been long established in the South West of Scotland. An old kilt worn by Commander Alex Hannay (1788 - 1844) was discovered by his descendant, Miss Anne Hannay, in the family chest and came into the possession of Councillor John Hannay, a well known tartan designer and collector. He created a new design based on the old which included a red stripe. This sett was produced around 1950 by Messrs Galt of Galloway. The black and white check is a common feature of Lowland tartans, originally woven with the undyed wool and found in the earliest of tartans, the Shepherds Plaid. It is interesting to note that the colours of the armourial bearings of the Chiefly House of Hannay of Scorbie are Sable, Argent and Azure - black, silver and blue.
