Dempster Tartan
Historical Significance
The Dempster Tartan holds a rich historical legacy that traces back to Scotland, particularly associated with the esteemed Picts tribe. This surname originated in this land and is deeply connected to the role of 'judex' or 'dempster' in the Scottish Parliament. In ancient Scotland, baronies possessed their own courts for trials, and the judex served as a baillie, rendering justice on behalf of the chief or laird. The earliest recorded individual bearing this name was Haldan de Emester of Perthshire, who paid homage to King Edward I of England in 1296. Notably, Thomas Dempster, a renowned Scottish scholar and historian, left an indelible mark on the academic world during the late 16th and early 17th centuries. This surname has also taken on various spelling variations, including Deemester, Dempstar, and Demster. As families bearing this name embarked on new chapters, they migrated to the United States, Canada, Australia, and New Zealand. Additionally, the British settlement in the 17th century brought this tartan to the vibrant landscapes of the British West Indies, notably Barbados. This clan's enduring motto, 'Fortier et strenue,' meaning 'Boldly and earnestly,' encapsulates the spirit of this distinguished tartan.
