Although the Vestiarium has been discredited as an authentic source, many of the tartans appear to be based on genuine older setts. In this case the 'Black Watch'. There is a specimen of both Chisholm and Chisholm Hunting in the collection of the Highland Society of London, sealed and marked "Presented by Lt. Col. Chisholm Batten, 1907."
