  1. Nisbet Family Tartan Tartan Number: 2115. Earliest known date: 1842 This is the sett that appears in the Vestiarium Scoticum as Mackintosh. There is no connection between the names, historically, to explain the position and it is interesting to note the similarity with the Dunbar tartan which also originates in the Vestiarium. The Nisbets came from the old barony of Nisbet in the parish of Edrom, Berwickshire, as early as 1160. See products available Copyright © Blair Urquhart, Comrie, 2015 — ΔT 0.59

  3. MacAulay Tartan Tartan Number: 1164. Earliest known date: 1881 This shorter version tallies with the count published by M'Intyre North in 1881 as having been given him by Logan. There are two Clans of the name associated with districts as far apart as Dumbarton and Lewis and they have no family connection with each other. They are the MacAulays of Ardencaple associated with the MacGregors and the MacAulays of Lewis who are associated with the MacLeods. This sett in its shortened form begins to resemble the MacGregor tartan. See products available Copyright © Blair Urquhart, Comrie, 2015 — ΔT 0.59
