Georgia District Tartan WR794
|
|
| The tartan commemorates the founding of the State of
Georgia and combines elements in the design associated
with its historic past. General Oglethorpe commanded the
Highland Independent Company of Foot which, in 1746,
wore the Black Watch tartan. Captain John 'Mohr'
MacIntosh is remembered in the MacIntosh red. Georgia
tartan is much in evidence at the annual Stone Mountain
Highland Games held in Atlanta, Georgias capital.
