I couldn’t write about Burns Night, or a Scottish surname without writing about Clans and Tartans, even if it is in a limited way. Upon searching the site, Clans.com for the surname BURNS, it revealed 11 such tartans. Each tartan subsequently identified three different pallets – Reproduction, Modern and Ancient. Upon selecting one of the Tartans, Robert Burns Legacy (Robert ‘Rabbie’ Burns) Tartan you can see the slight variation to the colour in the image below.

The Scottish Register for Tartans recorded 14 results when I searched the site for BURNS, and you can see those results HERE.
The subject of Tartans, Clans and Septs is an interesting one and I will write about those in the coming months.
