"Janet (Ogilvy), married to William Forbes, ninth (see Note 1 below) Laird of Tolquhoun, who died in 1602 (see Note 2 below), and had with other issue, Walter, heir of Tolquhoun."

from Scots Peerage (vol 2)

Note:

1

The ninth laird was Walter. William was the eighth laird of Tolquhon.

The date of death, given as 1602, is also erroneous, in that House of Forbes details William's granting of charters well into the first three decades of the 17th century, saying "He died before 1641 and was succeeded by his second son, Walter. When over 80 years old, his portrait had been painted by George Jamesone"
