- MacAlister Clan Tartan Tartan Number: 1465. Earliest known date: 1850 This plate is taken from the manuscript of William and Andrew Smith's 'Authenticated Tartans of the Clans and Families of Scotland'. The Smith's sources included the findings of George Hunter, an Army clothier, who toured the Highlands in search of old tartans prior to 1822. MacAlisters are descendants of Donald of Islay, Lord of the Isles. Contemporary accounts of Flora MacDonald (1746) suggest that MacAlisters wore the MacDonald tartan at that time. The MacAlister tartan certified by the chief in 1816 shows the MacDonald connection in its design. The present day Chief MacAlister of Loup was granted by Lord Lyon in 1991.

- MacFarhadian Canadian Personal Tartan Tartan Number: 6375. Earliest known date: 2003 During the design process, a version missing the white pivot was woven. A new piece was woven to replace the first but, in old Scots style, the original was put to good use. This tartan, therefore, has two versions extant. Designed to be woven with a 6 inch repeat and 2 thread stripes. Andre said, "I have designed a tartan around some of the major elements found in the tartans of her ancestors: Leitch; Munro; Wilson; Stuart.".
