Which tartan for MacClive?

[MacCorquodale]

I found many in Canada and a bunch of marriages in the 1980's in Inverness. There is a restaurant in upstate new York owned by a McClive as well. I visited the Battle of Lundy's Lane battlefield in Niagara Falls ( which is in a cemetery) and was shocked to see my name in large letters on a large family tombstone as we parked at the gates. So they were there as well.


I still very much doubt the Irish thing as it has not been mentioned once by my grandmother or father, uncle, etc.

I did have a bit of contact with my uncle back around the time my father died and he had also mentioned Fraserburgh. We hunted together for a few years , until we had a falling out, and he always mentioned the highlands but I never got much more than that, though he had done quite a bit of research and had a lot more knowledge of the family than I. He was a strange bird.

I don't see a reference to Ireland in any of the genealogy places either. Most seem to refer to around Glasgow.

I found the Ayrshire mention on a 1920 US census from Detroit.
