That was tartan #43 which was also listed in Wilson's book as KIDD. That was based on who purchased that tartan at the time. Someone by the name MacPherson also purchased the material and was so recorded in Wilson's book. Some tartans have an interesting history that can result in multiple identities.
I have some yardage of this particular tartan to be made into a kilt. For me it is because of the KIDD association.
