Provenance

James Logan recorded the Ogilvie sett in 1831, on page 407 of the Table of Clan Tartans in The Scottish Gaël — the earliest systematic published collection of clan setts. Logan gives the stripe widths in eighths of an inch, measured across the cloth and reflected about each end (a half-sett):

1 red · ¼ white · ½ black · ½ yellow · 1 purple · ½ yellow · 1½ green · ½ yellow · ½ black · ½ red · ½ black · ½ red · ½ black · ½ red · ½ black · 1 yellow · 2 green · 1 yellow · ½ black · 2 red · ½ white · 2 red · ½ black · ½ yellow · 2 green · ½ white · 2 green · ½ yellow · ½ purple · 1 red · ½ black · 3½ red · ½ white · ½ blue · ½ white · 3½ red · ½ white · ½ blue · 3½ red · ½ black · 1 red · ½ green · 1 yellow · 1½ green · ½ yellow · 1 yellow · 1½ green · ½ yellow · 1½ green · 1 yellow · 3 black · ¼ white · 1 blue · ¼ white · 3 black · 2 red · ¼ white · 2 red · ¼ white · 2 red · ½ black · ½ yellow · 3½ green · 1 black · 3½ green · 1 black · 3½ green · ½ yellow · ½ black · 2 red · ¼ white · 2 red · ½ white · 2 red · ½ white · 2 red · ½ black · ½ yellow · 2 green · ½ white · 2 green · ½ yellow · ½ black · 2 red · ½ white · 2 red · ½ white · 2 red · ½ black · 1 yellow · 3½ green · 1 black · 1½ green
