User ID: K576. Harry married Janet YOUNG before 28 November 1820.1 2 3 (Janet YOUNG was born about 1787, died on 7 January 1861 in Newington, Edinburgh, Midlothian, Scotland 1 and was buried on 16 January 1861 in Kildrummy Churchyard, Aberdeenshire, Scotland 1.) Marriage Notes: "At his (Harry Lumsden of Auchindoir and Clova's) death, therefore, his nephew, Harry Niven Lumsden, then a child, succeeded to the estates. He married Harriet Christian, daughter of General Leith Hay of Rannes, and had four children, who, with their mother, all died before him. When George IV. came to Scotland he carried up the address from the County of Aberdeen, and was knighted on the occasion and made a baronet, but the title died with him. He was succeeded by his cousin Harry Leith, who took the name of Lumsden. He endeavoured, but unsuccessfully, to break the entail, and at his death in 1844 the estates passed to Henry Lumsden." |
