    What tartan is this?

    A friend of mine inherited this ladies kilt/tartan skirt from her great grandmother. It had a very nice grouse talon kilt pin with a sterling silver mount, embossed with a thistle and bejewelled with topaz.

    I only mention the kilt pin to point to the fact that it was regarded as a family heirloom of significance to their Scottish culture.

    The family names associated with that side of her family didn't turn up anything in my search:

    MacInnis, Hunter, Young.

    Does anyone have any idea?
