Tennant Tartan Information
Tennant TS Number: TS1653 Class Family Details MacGregor-Hastie made few notes about his sample collection. In December 1967, Captain Tennant wrote to the Scottish Tartans Society, saying, ''.. and I have no objection to other Tennants wearing it (Tennant tartan) but their problem will be to get hold of it ... I don't know of any other Tennant tartan and that is why I think my father designed this one.'' The head of the Tennant family (this branch) is Lord Glenconner, descended from John Tennant of Blairston, Ayr. (1635).
