I'm not that crazy about the Perthshire district tartan, and as I've found related Wilson's who migrated to Dunbarton, Lanark, & Stirling, I looked for district tartans for them, but don't find any on the Ferret.
I do have other choices, though. My paternal g'mother was a Douglas, & her mother was a MacKenzie. Her brother was in the Black Watch in WWI, and I also am partial to the "Scotland Forever" tartan.
For Stirling, there is the Stirling and Bannockburn District:

I have a good friend who has a kilt in the Stirling tartan, and it is quite striking.
Given your place of residence, you could always choose the Carolina tartan.
