About this tartan

Anderson, meaning "son of Andrew," is one of Scotland's most common surnames, and the associated clan is classified as armigerous, having had no Lord-Lyon-recognized chief in modern times. The crest of an oak tree and the motto "Stand Sure" are associated with the Anderson of Ardbrake and Westerton and Anderson of Kinneddar families, and the crest is used more broadly by Andersons as a clansman's badge. Arms are recorded as having been granted to an "Anderson of that Ilk" in the sixteenth century, but little else is known of this figure
