General Notes:
"At that date (1473) George de Strathauchin of Losmothie bought from Lawrence Nudry of Ovirstead a third part of Belchere, Enverheroch, and Auchnastank. Thirty-nine years later Alexander Strathauchin divided his estate and granted to his eldest son, George, and his wife, the lands of Eastertoun of Losmordy, and a third part of Inverquherach, Auchnastank, and Balkery." (page 30)
"At a later period it (Invercharrach) was divided into three parts, belonging to different persons and included in different estates. The earliest mention of such a division is in 1473, when 'a third part of Envercheroch' was sold to George de Strathauchin by Lawrence Nudry of Ovirestead, and this third continued to belong to the Lesmurdie estate until ----. It is mentioned again in 1527, when Alexander Strathauchin granted it to his son George, and in 1578, 1607, and 1663 it appears in the Lesmurdie charters." (page 31)
from Cabrach Feerings
Note:
There is a discrepancy of dates in the two quotations cited. The first suggests the grant to George was about 1512, and the second says it was in 1527. Conceivably there was a second grant document, or the first document was implemented or ratified at a later stage. 1
