    All Hands On Deck!....Tartan and Clan Badge "Mystery"??

    Thanks in advance, for your help. I've traced my BOWDEN Family name to Bowden Parish in Roxburgh, under the Kerr Clan. However, I've also found a dense population of "Bowden folk" in Fife County, under the Bruce Clan?
    Can anyone suggest a remedy for me, so that I might get on with the business of ordering my Kilt?...
    THANK YOU ONE AND ALL....YOUR ASSISTANCE IS INVALUABLE.....CHEERS!!

    Yes. Xmarksthe scot.com. Ask Steve Ashton about acquiring one.

    This is not to suggest that you shouldn't wear either tartan if you so wish, but have you been able to establish definite connections to the clans mentioned?

    Well met 82nd. I was with the 173rd and know you have done your home work (as all sky soldiers would). Sometimes you just toss a coin if there are two right answers. Either choice will be good for you. My guess it will eventually come down to both. Welcome.
