The Blackwatch Tartan name was derived from the dark colour of the Tartan and the original role of the Regiment to "watch" over the Highlands of Scotland. In April 1725, on the advice of General Wade, Commander-in-Chief of "North Britain" King George the 1st authorised the raising of a "watch" which comprised of 6 independent companies which were to be employed in disarming the Highlanders, preventing depredations, bringing criminals to justice and hindering rebels and attained persons from inhabiting that part of the "Kingdom".
The Companies were captained by Lord Fraser of Lovat, Grant of Ballindalloch, Munro of Culcairn, Campbell of Lochnell, Campbell of Carrick and Campbell of Skipness.
This Tartan represents all 6 Clans and effectively they were the Police of the Highlands.
Some called them The Black Jocks or The Ladies from Hell!
