Mothers Maiden Name is Campbell

The Last Name now is McClenahan

A Scottch Irish Bastardization created at Ellis Island when we came over.

Truth be told I'm Fonder of the Scotts then I am the Irish.

But the Campbell Tartan is an Ugly Yellow Green I perfer the Great Tartan of the Bruce so that is what I wear. No Kilts, Pleted Tartans like you actually saw in Brave Heart I just can't wear the Modern Kilts they just don't feel right when you wear them.

An excellent and authoritative book has been written on Campbell tartans and every Campbell family should have one in their reference library. The Campbell tartan authorized by the Chief as appropriate for all of Clan Campbell is known in the clan as Campbell tartan and in the trade by various names; "ancient Campbell", "Black Watch", "ancient Black Watch". The colors are ONLY green, black and blue. The shades or tones of the colors may vary from different weavers but the choice of these is a matter for your taste.
Almost all published books on Scottish clans and Tartans, with the exception of the second edition of that by the late Sir Ian Moncreiffe, have errors in their illustrations for Clan Campbell. The confusion results from asking the weavers instead of the Chiefs about which is their clan's tartan.
There are other specific tartans authorized for descendants of the Loudoun, Breadalbane and Cawdor branches of Clan Campbell. The trade has not created the same deliberate or thoughtless confusion about these, although they may be hard to find.
"Argyle", with white and yellow lines, and "Dress", with areas of white, are NOT authorized tartans, although the Argyle is heavily promoted by the trade. Those who already posess non-authorized tartans should not hesitate to wear them. However if innocently stuck with those, you may like to wear a tie, plaid or scarf of authorized tartan so as to show your loyalty to the authority of Clan Campbell and in order to be able to show others the right tartan to buy. That is for you to choose.
