Burns or Campbell?
Hello, everyone. I'm new here and I have been wanting to have a kilt made with my family check (Burns). However, I have been told several different stories about which one. On one hand, some say the Burns' are a sept of Campbell and we would wear their tartan and others say Burns is a stand alone clan and there is no historical basis in the connection to the Campbells. I have traced our family lineage back to 1742 here in the States, but before that, everything is sketchy. (Our patriarch was sent here after stealing three brass weights, according to family lore). Any ideas or suggestions?
