Moffat Heavyweight Tartan Kilt
Clan Moffat hails from the Scottish Borders, with ancestral roots dating back to the time of William Wallace. The name likely originates from Norse settlers, evolving from Montealt to Moffat over centuries. It is believed the clan gave its name to the town of Moffat in Dumfriesshire. Prominent figures like Nicholas de Moffat, Bishop of Glasgow, and Walter de Moffat, ambassador to France, highlight the clan's influence in church and diplomacy.
During the Wars of Scottish Independence, Moffats fought at Bannockburn and received land charters from Robert the Bruce. Like other Border clans, they were known as fierce Reivers, often feuding with neighbouring clans, especially the Johnstones. After the tragic decline of the clan in the 1600s, they remained without a chief until 1983, when Francis Moffat was officially recognised. His daughter, Jean Moffat of that Ilk, is the current clan chief.
Today, Clan Moffat continues to celebrate its enduring legacy through its modern tartan, crest, and the motto Spero meliora – "I hope for better things".
