Registration notes:	This distinct and unique tartan, based on the Stephenson tartan, was commissioned by and custom woven for Mr Heckenberg, and made into a kilt by Matthew Newsome. The tartan’s name commemorates all Scottish family links with Mr Heckenberg’s paternal line since the family settled in New South Wales, Australia. Two Heckenberg brothers, sea captains, arrived there and married two Scottish sisters from Dundee in Sydney, starting the Heckenberg family line in Australia. The threadcount is based on a sample woven in Harris Tweed.
