"One source was The Douglas Book, the four-volume account by Sir William Fraser published in 1885. He discloses he had access to original charters held by the Douglas family. Like many later historians, he struggled to correctly identify some key people. One of these was an Andrew Auchinleck, a Notary living in Inverness in 1510 and later a Sheriff in Edinburgh in 1529. His identity is validated in a Charter relating to the grant of the estate of Pennyland in Ayrshire to an Andrew Auchinleck by his father, William, and to the later sale of this ancestral home in August 1511. His grandfather Adam is also mentioned in the charter and was probably Canon of Glasgow in 1440 and 1449. When Andrew died in 1582, he was living at Petdreichie on the Glenbervie estate, then owned by the Douglas of Angus family after it was seized by the 5th Earl in 1492..."

"While there were other descendants of the early Auchinlecks after the baronial family died out, this line descended from Andrew, the notary and his five sons was significant in the 16th C as shown in the Saga. Descendants of the children of Andrew Auchinleck's second marriage are believed to include the heirs of the Rev James Auchinleck, (1646-1685) who married a Margaret Keith and from that marriage, Field Marshall Sir Claude Auchinleck, (1884-1981), has been identified as descended from that union."
