General Notes:
"James was served as his father's heir in 1518. Although his father had held the office of sherrif of Fife for some time, it had passed to James' uncle John Lindsay, Master of Pitcruvie, under a Privy Seal grant from the 30th of May 1524. James tried very hard to get this office returned to him, but without avail.
In 1527 James attended King James V in his efforts to settle the borders, and on his way home, along with the Laird of Raith, and David Wemyss of that Ilk, it is know that he was attacked by the Moutrays of Seafield......
...... James left two daughters (Alison married to Robert Ayton, 1st Laird of Inchdairnie, in 1521; and Katherine married to Henry Wardlaw, heir apparent of John Wardlaw of Torry, marriage contract dated the 9th of January 1546) and was succeeded by his brother Andrew."
