Advice on an homage tartan
Hello to the Rabble...
For my pleasure and my children's education, I am collecting tartan/kilts of the various families which comprise our larger family.
This has brought me to my Granduncle Macinally. Things I know:
1. When he was born
2. Where he was born
3. When he immigrated
4. Whom he married into
5. Actually met him once...I was very young
What I cannot do, is pursue this course of geneology further. His place of birth is in the lowlands, just south of Buchanan territory. Based on other threads here, his immediate family being ensconsed in this area, the logical tartan (as an homage to his signifigance to our extended family) would be Buchanan. However, I am aware Macinally's connection to MacFarlane. However, their historic territory is slightly north west of Buchanan territory. For my purposes, would anyone here think it disrespectful to obtain the Buchanan, become a member of the association under respectful pretenses and wear the kilt?
Or, should I pursue another option?
Thanks for any information,
Domehead
