- Paton Family Tartan Tartan Number: 2127. Earliest known date: 1930 Discovered in 1993 at P and J Haggart, weavers in Aberfeldy. It was possibly designed by the late Mr John Robertson around the 1930's, but the sample appears to have been woven in 1952. The Paton family associated with the tartan come from Aberdeenshire. Apart from the red stripe this sett resembles the Gordon of Abergeldy previously known as Ancient Gordon. See products available Copyright © Blair Urquhart, Comrie, 2015 — ΔT 0.97

- MacAuley Hunting Clan Tartan Tartan Number: 827. Earliest known date: 1950 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 1.06
