This is going to be a simple an easy way to find out what clans / families you are related to and which tartans you would have a connection to.
Family Tree
First you will want to have quick access to your family tree. All you have to do is go back through the generations and note all of the last names of people that are in or near Scotland. In the video you can see that I find names like Davis, MacCullough, Davies, etc. You will want to make note of those on a separate paper or document. Once you have those, we can go to the clan search
Clan / Sept Search - www.cosca.scot/find-my-clan
Here all you have to do is go alphabetically through your names to see if you can find connections to any of the clans or if the name is already a larger clan that is its own. Not all your names will show up here, but many more than likely will. Make note of the clans you found on a separate paper or document.

You can now go to our special order listings and find the tartans you discovered in the previous step. They are listed in alphabetical order and have a search function to help. Keep in mind that some tartans are only available from the weaving mills in Scotland. These are labeled with Made in Scotland in the title. While they do cost more, they do have a much wider selection
As always, feel free to reach out to me directly with questions!

Thank you for sharing your video.very informative. My dad was a McGee so I will be checking places you suggested. I think this name is connected to one of the larger clans. Now, my daughter married a Urquhart which I believe is one of the larger clans. From my research I think there is a little Irish in the family too. Thanks again.😊

Thanks for the info but if you have the Stewart on your tree how do I find which one to pick ? and yes Queen Margaret (Queen of Scots) Tudor and King James Stewart IV are my 13th removed grandparents along with many others in this branch

My husband and I both have Scottish ancestory. I'm Ferguson, he is Bruce. I thought Ferguson was Scandinavian, there's a few ways it's spelled. They may have settled in Wales first. My husband Erik has no idea about his family tree. I'm trying to find out if he has any living relatives. He may have a 3rd cousin in Bakersfield, CA. I'd like to buy a kilt of my clan, even though women do not wear kilts. I do have a Black Watch kilt which I adore. Unfortunately my husband fell victim to cancer and passed away but I'd still like to pursue his family tree and buy a kilt in his memory.
