OK, so since the Livingstons are a sept of the McDougalls and the Walkers are a sept of the McDougalls hmmm...that's just 3 tartans . Oh yeah, Livingstons were also a sept of Stewart of Appin. Of course there are some US tartans too..

Good choice on the Iowa tartan -- it's one of my favourites as well -- in fact, it's my avatar! 
Where did you live in Iowa?
