Morrison Hunting Ancient Tartan

Historical Context

The Morrison clan is a venerable Scottish Highland lineage, tracing its roots to the Isle of Lewis in the Outer Hebrides. Derived from the Gaelic term MacGilleMhoire, meaning "son of the servant of Mary," this clan ranks among Scotland's oldest, dating back to the 14th century. Initially based in Ness, the Morrisions expanded their influence across Lewis and the mainland. Their prominence grew through involvement in pivotal historical events, including the Wars of Scottish Independence, where they fought on both sides. Recorded officially by Lord Lyon on January 3, 1968, the Morrison Hunting Ancient Tartan is emblematic of the clan’s rich heritage, with origins noted as far back as a handwritten reference from 1747. The clan played a significant role in the Jacobite uprisings, with many Morrisons rallying for Bonnie Prince Charlie.
