  5. Laing of Archiestown Clan/Family Tartan Tartan Number: 2544. Earliest known date: 1783 Said to have been woven in 1783 in Knockando Morayshire, by William Donald Laing of Queensland, Australia who donated a sample to the Tartans Society in 1996. The dark line in the centre of the red band is either blue or black. Apparently William Laing acquired the piece of tartan in 1961 from a Mr Jack Garden whose g.g. grandfather was John Laing (dob 1767) who wove the tartan. In the 1810 census he lived in his shop in the Square at Archiestown. See products available Copyright © Blair Urquhart, Comrie, 2015 — ΔT 1.07

  7. Eglinton District Tartan Tartan Number: 2075. Earliest known date: pre 1847 The Eglinton tartan is the Montgomerie with a narrower ground. D W Stewart in his book, Old and Rare, was of the opinion that the Montgomerie tartan was adopted by the Montgomeries of Ayrshire in 1707. He stated that in 1893 there were historic relics at Eglinton Castle which furnished evidence of the early use of the tartan. See products available Copyright © Blair Urquhart, Comrie, 2015 — ΔT 1.13

  10. St Andrews University Corporate Tartan Tartan Number: 2398. Earliest known date: pre 1998 Originally named St. Andrews International. Apparently a Gordon Paton MD, bought the company from North East Fife Enterprise Trust in 1997, the aim being to brand quality Scottish products for export worldwide. The company intended to set up a membership scheme but the company went into liquidation. The intended venue belonged to St Andrews University and it appears that the ownership of the tartan has fallen to the University and its name has been changed from 'International' to 'University' (Deirdre Kinloch Anderson, Aug 2004).No thread count given so this entry is based on an estimate from a small computer graphic.
