Forsyth Ancient | 11 oz. Wool

Mill: Loch
Weight: 11 oz.
Clan Motto: Instaurator Ruinae ("A repairer of ruin")
Notes:
This is the version of the sett largely used today. Very similar to Leslie with the yellow stripe replacing the white. 'History of the Forsyth Family' (Jennie Forsyth Jeffrie, 1918) gives a history. Clan Chief Alistair Forsyth was recognised by Lord Lyon in 1978 - the first for over 300 years. There is an alternate, azure version called 'old colours'. Sindex notes say that this sett was said to have been designed c.1795 by William Forsyth, a tailor in Huntly. It was he who had been commissioned by the Duchess of Gordon to design a suitable sett for the 75th or Gordon Highlanders raised in 1794.
