There apparently are other tartans that get associated with our clan. If someone has an image, or better yet, a sett specification, let us know and it will be added here.

Note that the colors may be off from what you expect. The blue may be a little bright and is usually a a dark shade like navy. The green also is usually dark. Different viewers may render colors differently.
In general, tartan setts specify a general color. The exact color can vary and still be a legitimate version of the tartan. The ancient versions of tartan's aren't particularly old, they are just the standard tartan with muted colors in an attempt to appear to be an older style.
