3. MacLaren Clan Tartan Tartan Number: 342. Earliest known date: pre 1820 The MacLaren differs from The Ferguson only in having a yellow line where the latter has a white. They share the unusual feature of an unbroken band of blue. The present tartan appears under this name in Mclan's plate for Clan MacLaren. The Wilsons of Bannockburn were producing it before 1820 - but only under the name of 'Regent'. The Regency ended when George IV succeeded the throne in that year, the name of the tartan then becoming outdated; but production of the sett continued, as we know from specimens attached to customers' orders for more. Writers of the period tell us that the demand around 1822 for Clan tartans exceeded the authentic supply, and that not only were new setts invented but pre-existing ones acquired new names. Our present tartan may have been one of the latter; no older MacLaren has come to light. (MacLaren Society) See products available Copyright © Blair Urquhart, Comrie, 2015 — ΔT 1.01

5. Ferguson of Athol Clan Tartan Tartan Number: 337. Earliest known date: 1850 D.C. Stewart points to the similarity with the Murray of Athol as a common source or association for the tartan. Some of the Fergussons of Athol and the MacLarens were followers of the Murray of Athol. The Ferguson tartan has a white stripe where the MacLaren has yellow. Chiefs of the clan are the Fergussons of Kilkerran, descended from Fergus of Dalriada, who brought the Stone of Scone to Scotland.
