The Prince Charles Edward Stewart sett is identical with the Royal Stewart but for the much reduced red square, D.C.Stewart says of it ´the tartan becomes richer to the point of congestion.´
It is reputed to have been worn by the Prince at Holyrood in 1745.
There are so many tartans called Prince Charles Edward is said to be his habit of honouring his host at that time by wearing his tartan. In his travels he obviously stayed/hid with many hosts.
 

There is also a piece of tartan said to have been worn by him in the National Museum of Scotland
