As to the origin or design of Erracht Cameron, it's nearly identical to MacDonald, the only difference being a pair of fine red lines removed and replaced by a single yellow line. It become a "chicken or the egg" thing, because as I recall MacDonald isn't documented until Logan 1831, while Erracht Cameron dates to 1793.
I've always loved Erract Cameron and would love to have a military style boxpleated kilt in it.
Here we go, some old postcards etc showing Erracht Cameron in its "native element" the Army
and a closeup of the lovely box pleats
and yours truly wearing it
