    Trying to find my Kilt

    Hello all, Im new to the site. I have been researching my family history for a while now. Traced the lines back to the surname of Scrogg, Skragg, or Scogg(there are so many variations lol). But I am certian that the family comes from the Barony of Stobo, Peebleshire. So im trying to figure out what clan we come from and what our kilt looked like. Any help or at least a point in the right direction would be great. Thank you.

    There is a search function at the Scottish Tartans Authority. Although, you might need a Clan/Sept list to show which clan (or if) your family belonged to a particular group that has their own tartan. None of the three variants you listed came up on the tartan ferret search.

    Peebles has a district tartan as well called Royal Burgh of Peebles Centenary Tartan. It's only about 11 years old though.
