appears in Paton's collection which is housed at the Scottish Tartans Museum. The samples are undated but the collection is known to have been put together around the 1830s. This dress set clearly relates to the tartan of the Border Clan sometimes known as Green Scott.

MacLennan Clan Tartan
(above)
This sett is also listed under Logan. D C Stewart says, "The group of five red lines is often seen with the lines equally spaced, and even equal width. The earlier arrangement here shown is preferable." Dr. Micheil MacDonald suggests that Logan (possibly Lobban) was an alternative name for MacLennan rather than a separate clan. Alternative names or aliases are not uncommon in early Scottish records.

The name Scott can be located on the very bottom right hand corner of the map just above Bruce and Johnston. 
 
The name Stewart can also be found on the southern portion in three instances two above Kennedy on the body of water labled Firth of Clyde, and the other above livingstone on Firth of Lorn. 
 
Scott was Gordon Ward's mother's family name, and Stewart was his second wife's family name.
