PARENTAGE
This man. from the evidence of the references to him, does appear to be related to Robert Innes of that Ilk, 1st Baronet Innes. What is not clear is the exact relationship. That often points to a person being a 'natural' son or daughter of the important personage in question. Or he may be a nephew. More may come to light.
John married Jean CAMPBELL.1 (Jean CAMPBELL was born about 1630.)
Marriage Notes:
"Colonel John Innes was 'governor of the Bog,' i.e., Gordon Castle, in 1649; and I think he acquired Dipple about 1659. In 1660 Colonel John Innes of Dippill appears as a heritor of Dipple, but as non-resident. On July 12, 1664, William Ogilvie, younger of Bauchlaw, had sasine of Lightnet in the parish of Gamrie (Banff Sasines). On June 3, 1669, there was renunciatione and grant of redemptione of Lightnet made to William Ogilvie, younger of Bauchlaw, in favour of Col. John Innes of Dippill (ibid.) On Aug. 25, 1669, Col. John Innes of Dippill and Jean Campbell, his spouse, had sasine of Lightnett (ibid.) On 30 Nov. 1669, Col. John Innes of Dippill renounced Kirktoun of Dippill in favour of Sir Robert Innes of that ilk (Elgin Sasines). Col. John Innes was succeeded in Lightnet by his son James; and another son was Mr Hugh Innes, minister of Mortlach, who died in 1733, aged 68. It was to this Hugh that the Rev. Alexander Gordon of Rathfriland left his books."
