Historical Context
The Parker USA Tartan represents a unique fusion of Scottish heritage and American pride, paying homage to the Parker family. The surname Parker originated from the role of park keepers or estate managers in medieval times, a position held with great responsibility in both Scotland and England. Although not tied to a traditional Scottish clan, the Parker family has a long-standing history of leadership and land stewardship. The family crest, featuring a stag's head, symbolizes vigilance and independence. The family motto, 'For Freedom,' reflects their dedication to the protection of land and liberty throughout history.
