About the Symington Family Tartan
The Symington name is a Scottish territorial name, taken from lands called Symington — "Symon's town" — of which there are two: one in Lanarkshire, in upper Clydesdale, and one in Ayrshire near Troon. Both are named for knights called Simon who held them in the twelfth century.
As a family name rather than a Highland clan, Symington is most fittingly matched with a family or district tartan. This collection brings a fitting Scottish tartan into wearable apparel, accessories, home decor and heritage gifts.
Symington Tartan Pattern and Colours
This collection draws on warm gold and green crossed with dark lines — earthy, dignified colours of the Clydesdale and Ayrshire country, its farmland and low hills.
Symington Heritage
The Lanarkshire Symington takes its name from Symon Loccard, a knight of the twelfth century whose family became the Lockharts, while the Ayrshire Symington is named for Simon Crawford, of the family who gave their name to Crawfurdland and other lands in the west. From such places the surname arose in the usual Scottish way, borne by families who held or worked the ground.
Symingtons appear in the records of the western Lowlands from the medieval centuries, in burgh and parish alike. From Lanarkshire and Ayrshire the name spread across Scotland and, with the great emigrations, to America, Canada and Australia, carried by families proud of their Lowland roots.
