| West Virginia | 2008 | On March 6, 2008, the Legislature adopted House Concurrent Resolution 29, designating an adaptation of “West Virginia Shawl” as the Official Tartan of the State of West Virginia. According to the resolution, a majority of West Virginia’s earliest settlers were descendants of Celtic people.
The pattern for the Official Tartan of the State of West Virginia was designed by Dr. Phillip D. Smith and John A. Grant III. It was recorded by the Scottish Tartan Authority on May 27, 2008, reference number 7631. The Official Tartan of the State of West Virginia colors were chosen to represent the mountain states as follows: Scarlet for the state bird, the Cardinal• Yellow for the fall colors of the state tree, the Sugar Maple• Dark Blue for the mountain rivers and lakes• Black for the official state animal, the Black Bear, and the state’s oil and coal• Green for the state flower, the Rhododendron, and the state’s mountain meadows• Azure for the sky above• White to have all the colors of this great nation, the United States, intertwined with the State of West Virginia• |
