About this tartan

Clan Murray descends from Freskin, probably a Flemish knight, to whom David I granted lands in West Lothian and Moray. His descendants were called de Moravia, 'of Moray', which became Murray. In the sixteenth century the Murrays of Tullibardine secured the clan chiefship, and John Murray was made Earl of Tullibardine in 1606
