Steve: Interesting obit. Thanks for sharing it with us. It does give a snapshot glimpse into the 19th century. Two sons and five daughters! Good for your G.G. grandfather.

I have a kilt in the Mackellar tartan made by Burnett's and Struth. A couple of not-so-great pictures appear below, but in case you are curious you can get an idea of what the tartan looks like in a Lochcarron Weathered Strome kilt. I don't think they are weaving it at this time. If so, it is a shame, because it is beautiful cloth.
