LUNDIE, Robert 5th of Balgonie and 1st of Conland ²

   User ID: Z593.

Robert married Margaret LUMSDEN, daughter of Thomas LUMSDEN 4th and last of Conland and Marjory GORDON.^{1 2} (Margaret LUMSDEN was born about 1499.)

  Marriage Notes:

"Margaret married - (1) William Johnstone of that ilk (Caskieben, now called Keith Hall), who was killed at Flodden; and (2) Duncan Forbes of Corsindae. Nisbet, in the Appendix to his Heraldry, says that Margaret Lumsden married Lundin of that ilk. It may, perhaps, be true; but in what order this much-married lady took her husbands I know not."

from Families of Lumsden

Note:

The Lundies of Balgonie are descended from the family of Lundin of that Ilk.




"Robert (Lundie) succeeded his brother Andrew to Balgonie, and obtained the Barony of Conland through his marriage to Margaret Lumisden, the heiress of Thomas Lumisden of Conland. Not much is known about Robert's life, but he was succeeded to Balgonie by his eldest son David after his death around 1581. The Barony of Conland was passed first to his second son, James; and next to his third son, Robert. Both these children died without issue and Conland was finally settled upon Robert and Margaret's fourth son, Andrew Lundie (4th of that name of Conland). Several generations later, the Lundies of Conland would become the representatives of Lundie of Balgonie.

They had several daughters of which included Agnes Lundie who married Sir William Graham of Claverhouse, and were the great-grandparents of John Graham, Viscount Dundee."
