About the Dinwiddie Family Tartan
The Dinwiddie name — also Dinwoodie and Dunwoody — is a Scottish territorial name, taken from the lands of Dinwoodie in the parish of Applegarth in Annandale, Dumfriesshire. From these Border lands the family took their name in the old Scottish way.
As a family name rather than a Highland clan, Dinwiddie is most fittingly matched with a family or Dumfriesshire district tartan. This collection brings a fitting Scottish tartan into wearable apparel, accessories, home decor and heritage gifts.
Dinwiddie Tartan Pattern and Colours
This collection draws on warm golds and greens with darker lines — the colours of the Annan valley, its farmland and low hills rising toward the Border moors.
Dinwiddie Heritage
The lands of Dinwoodie lie in Annandale in Dumfriesshire, in the country of the Johnstones and the Border riding families, and the name is recorded there from medieval times in a variety of spellings as scribes set down the sound as they heard it.
The best known bearer was Robert Dinwiddie, born near Glasgow in 1692, who served as Lieutenant Governor of the colony of Virginia from 1751; it was he who sent a young George Washington on his first mission into the Ohio country in 1753. Dinwiddie County in Virginia carries his name, and the surname is now far more numerous in America than in Scotland.
