General Notes:
"Leichestoun seems to have passed out of the hands of the Lesmoir Gordons at this date (1659), for the next laird, Patrick Gordon, brother of John Gordon of Balmade (murdered in 1660), seems to have been a son of Dr. Thomas Gordon, Elgin, who was subsequently laird of Edenville and then of Clashtirum, and who belonged to the family of Letterfourie."
from House of Gordon
The farm of Glastirum is located on the main Fochabers/Buckie road, from which can be sighted the Moray Firth and hills (Braes) of Enzie.
