Pengelly The Cornish Ancient Tartan

Historical Context

The Pengelly The Cornish Ancient Tartan celebrates the Pengelly family’s deep ancestral roots in Cornwall, a region in southwestern England renowned for its Celtic heritage and enduring traditions. Though not of Scottish clan origin, the Pengelly name reflects a distinct legacy within Cornish culture, one that mirrors the spirit of loyalty and strength long associated with Celtic history. The family crest, often adorned with symbols of protection and resilience, complements their proud motto, “Semper Fidelis” (Always Faithful) — a declaration of honor, dedication, and enduring faithfulness. This tartan stands as a tribute to the Pengelly lineage, blending Cornish identity with the ancient artistry of tartan weaving, and symbolizing the family’s timeless pride and cultural devotion.
