  Hmm. Another name which links to Seaton Sluice, New Hartley and Seaton Delaval. I know there will be clans dotted about but still - may be a link. Her tartan - I've seen several like that and wonder if they'd drifted down from Scotland with the boats?

  Bagpiper uniform is the No.1 Full Highland Dress at most weddings and events. The piper’s “No.1 Full Highland Dress” was originally worn by pipers of the historic Highland regiments. “No.1s” were then adopted first by the Govan Police, and when pipe bands took off in the early 20th century, by numerous other police, colliery and civilian pipe bands. Indeed, the No.1 Full Highland Dress was worn by virtually all Scottish pipers and pipe bands until the 1980s when the Strathclyde Police Pipe Band adopted “Day Dress” as their bagpiper uniform due to the No.1 dress being so heavy, impractical, and not to mention very expensive to purchase and maintain. However, as practical as Day Dress is, it provides nowhere near the visual spectacle as a piper dressed smartly in No.1 Full Highland Dress. Source: www.scottishbagpipers.com/bagpiper-uniform-tour/
