This is the Cunningham Coat of Arms from Scotland. The tartan is such a beautiful red and black plaid.The story behind this dates back to 1043. Friskin Cunningham was farming when Prince Malcom was hinding from Mac Beth's soldiers. Friskin concealed the Prince by forking straw over him. Prince Malcom escaped, and later became the King. King Malcom rewarded Frikin by giving him the name of Cunyhame and many tracks of land. Hence this was the beginning of the present day Cunningham's.
