    D C Stewart in the 'Setts' (1950) says "The Livingstones are variously associated with the Buchanans, the MacDougals and the Stewarts of Appin, but the tartan does not resemble that of any of these clans. It does resemble a MacDonell of Keppoch, the main difference is that the centre of the design is a solid band of green, where the Keppoch has two narrow green bands." The small Highland clan of Livingstone from the Isle of Lismore and Western Argyll originally bore a Gaelic name spelled in different ways - MacDunsleinhe, Mac-an-Leigh, or Maclea - and they were connected to the Stewarts of Appin. There is also an unconnected Lowland family (Livingston without the 'e') deriving their name from the lands of Levingstoun.
