    Booth tartan - experts plz?

    Okay tartan experts, I need your help.

    In discussing kilts at our Parish Coffee Hour, one of my parishioners mentioned that her grandmother and grandfather, last name Booth (maybe with an "e" but I don't think so) used to have a blue tartan in a frame on their mantle.

    This woman is genuinely interested in participating in an Orthodox "Kirkin'" of the Tartan, so I would like to oblige her and help her find it if possible.

    The name is Booth. Is there a Booth tartan, and is it in anyway blue?

    Or do I have to have more geneaology from her to find out the possible origin of her remembered family tartan?

    Booth Tartan...

    Father John:

    One of my sources shows the Booth surname associated with the Aberdeen District tartan:

    I'll check and see if she recognizes it as her family's.
