This version of the tartan tallies with the thread count published by M'Intyre North in 1881 as given to him by Logan. There are two Clans of the name associated with districts as far apart as Dumbarton and Lewis and they have no family connection with each other. They are the MacAulays of Ardincaple associated with the MacGregors and the MacAulays of Lewis who are associated with the MacLeods. This sett in its shortened form begins to resemble the MacGregor tartan. This is also the sett included in the 1880 'Clans Originaux'.
