LEITH, William of Premnay 1 2 3

  • Born: About 1535
  • Died: After 1604 1

   Another name for William was LEITH, William of Bernes.2

   User ID: Z488.

  General Notes:

"Patrick Leith of Harthill, and William Leith, his son, granted a letter of reversion of the lands of Newlands,
Craigtown, and Craigmill, in favour of William Leslie of Balquhain, 11th June 1566."

from Family of Leslie

Note: There is some confusion as to the status of William. The Leiths of Harthill states (page 16 footnote) that "William filius naturalis of Patrick Leith" was acquiring land in 1546 (RMS 1513-1546 p.765); and that his name also occurs as "brother german of John Leith" in 1604. It's possible there were two of the same name.
