About the Perry Family Tartan
The Perry name has two roots. In England it is topographical, from the Old English for a pear tree — a family living at or by the pear tree took its name from the spot. Along the Welsh border it is often a form of ap Herry, son of Harry, where the Welsh ap has run together with the name, as it did in Parry.
As a family name rather than a Scottish clan, Perry is most fittingly matched with a district or universal tartan. This collection brings a fitting tartan into wearable apparel, accessories, home decor and heritage gifts.
Perry Tartan Pattern and Colours
This collection draws on warm golds and greens with darker lines — the colours of an orchard in autumn, fitting for a name that began at a pear tree in an English field.
Perry Heritage
Topographical surnames — taken from a tree, a ford, a hill or a wood — are among the oldest in Britain, and the pear tree gave several: Perry, Parry in some districts, Pirie and Pury among them. Perry the drink, made from pears as cider is from apples, comes from the same root.
Along the Welsh border the picture is different: there ap Herry, son of Harry, gave both Parry and, in some families, Perry, so that a Marches family of the name may have a Welsh patronymic behind it rather than an English orchard. Perry families are found across England, Wales and Ireland, and travelled widely with emigration.
