American County Setts
American county setts go beyond national, state, and city tartans, giving additional variety. Due to some Highland Games being county events, rather than sponsored by a city, people want a tartan to reflect the whole county. Highlanders who fled Scotland after the Battle of Culloden and the ensuing Clearances found a welcome in Maryland. Scottish Wedding Dreams History page has more information on the Jacobite Rebellions, Culloden, and the Clearances. Maryland, particuarly in Anne Arundel County, had a lot of Scottish settlers. My own ancestors settled in Snow Mound, Maryland, in the late 1600’s.

Fulton County and Atlanta created this tartan to signify the spirit of co-operation between Fulton County, Georgia, and the Scottish Borders. Many Borders Scots immigrated to Georgia. The red, white and black are the team colors of the Atlanta Falcons.
