There are two tartans that I know of, the US St. Andrew's tartan, and the American tartan.

www.district-tartans.com/american.htm

At one time, the US St. Andrew's tartan was known as the Bicentennial tartan, and there was a move to adopt it as the "official" tartan for the 200th anniversary of the US, but that was rejected. The "St. Andrew" in the name refers to the fact that a number of US St. Andrew's societies had adopted it as a tartan for their members to wear.

There are also a number of American state, and in some cases, city and county tartans as well. The District Tartans web site lists them:

Well, like I said I am thinking of saving up to register a tartan for the McHenrys all over the globe, we are a sept that is apperently part of three clans, I dont see why we cant have a tartan of our own.

Ive got single gild stripes instead of double, I love the Green Black white and Gold theme, I want to design one to register for the MacHenry so anyone can use it.
I didnt use blue as the us army one does

Sure... but they also know that soon you will be a rolling professional pulling in 6 figures, lady on each arm, needing many 9yd custom weave kilts... one to match each car.
