- 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 0.22
