Check this site out, he is the historian for the Orkneys
www.orkneyjar.com write to him to check out the real facts [email protected] about clans and tartans in Orkney.I am a Flett descendant but do not consider myself part of any scottish sept for the purpose of a clan or tartan for my Orkney descendants.I do have Clans and tartans for my scottish descendants.There is a Orkney tartan but that was only created in the 20 century as so many people living outside Orkney wanted a tartan.Any tartans used by descendants of Orcadians are only recent.The Orcadians are of Viking descent and they did not have Clans or Tartans.
