Interestingly I discovered that my fathers family and part ofmy mother's too share the same tartan of the black and white houndstooth. It is known as the Black & (White) Shepherd Tartan, which is a bit scary as Dad's Mother was a black and his father a Shepherd. The other colours represent the same Black Shepherd tribe as part of the Stewart clan, alway's using those same colours in varying way's.<br />Cheers and Bless.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8384694254224622888.post-10564470438383822202010-12-15T09:41:46.796-05:002010-12-15T09:41:46.796-05:00"I felt quite pleased with the result, though..."I felt quite pleased with the result, though admitting so is probably the least Mennonite part of the whole endeavor."<br /><br />HA!
