    Thank each and everyone of you for taking the time to reapond. I think this journey started because I just basically wanted to know about a side of the family I never new about.
    But my fondness of kilts has gone back for a while, but I had never owned one until about 6 months ago. We were visiting a Pub and they just happened to be selling kilts. I new nothing about what I was buying just wanted it. It ended up being an eBay special but I loved it.
    Before I found this site I had thoughts of do I have a right to wear this. Having red hair and my size helped to cut down on any bad natured chiding. But I wanted to know more about the what's and whys.
    Then a couple of weeks ago all these feelings came together and helped form the feelings I have now.
    I pride in a heritage I have found. Thankfulness in the way everyone has helped here and the warm reception and information. The need to cherish the beliefs and honor what the kilt itself stands for to be able to wear it proudly. Having found an apparent blood link gives me a wonderful feeling of pride bit that also comes from just knowing where your ancestors came from.
    But I am proud to be me and what I am period.
