Thanks Gill mOre and Ted Crocker,
I have seen them as well and well I am at a loss, more due to most of the family hystory get lost in KY due to county fires and loss of paper but still working at it.
Tha Mac Thomas Clan at one time we weree talking and could show a beter line . but I found out that my Dad is not a thomas by blood only by adoption and marrage.
It is dificult some time to find what ya need but it does come to you whn you least ask for it.

Yep, it sure can. Mine is not a clan tartan, but I didn't even know it existed at first. I thought about it a lot, and I had been planning on a different tartan, but then it was just made clear to me.

When I did know it was my tartan, I was able to put that searching to rest, and now I can focus on all the other things like saving up several fist fulls of kilt money.

That doesn't mean that I won't get a kilt in the other tartan some day, but I don't have to worry or think about that right now... It's brought peace to the tartan maddness.

I can trace my family to the Dumfries area of Scotland dated 1785. Many of them crossed the pond in the 1820's in the N. Carolina area. Many of my Ancestors went to Ireland (Galway area) to be stone masons and shipwrights.

Welcome to the family!
