- Ross Hunting Clan Tartan Tartan Number: 756. Earliest known date: 1850 The threadcount is based on a sample from the MacGregor-Hastie collection of the Scottish Tartans Society. This version originally showed the light green overcheck having six stripes. BU noted irregularities in the threadcount, and suggests that 4 light green stripes would produce a more plausible kilting fabric. BU created the original transcription.
