Did you ever wonder if there was an Anderson plaid? You
didn't? Well, anyhow, there is a Scotch plaid for the Anderson
family, though the Scottish version of the name derives from Andrew,
rather than Anders. It is interesting that the motto on the
Anderson coat of arms is "Stand Sure." That is quite like the
meaning of Fasth, the name given to Victor's father when he joined
the Swedish army, and the name used by all of Victor's
siblings. "Fasth" means "sturdy," "reliable" in Swedish.

have an
Anderson plaid scarf.
Here is the arms:
If you ever wanted to wear a kilt, now you have an excuse to do

And here is the Anderson store in Edinburgh, Scotland.
I don't know what they sell, but if you are ever in Edinburgh,
you might stop in. Perhaps they give Andersons a
discount.
