(About 1528-) |
STRACHAN, James of Lesmurdie
Another name for James was STRATHAUCHIN, James.1 User ID: G287. General Notes: "In 1539 George Strathauchin had a mind to increase his portion in the Cabrach, and accordingly bought the remainder of the lands of Balchery from John Gordon, part owner of Auchnastank. In 1549 there was a James Strathauchin in Lesmurdy, who by a charter granted by Queen Mary, of the lands of Thombayne and Wester Losmordy, with the mill thereof, still further added to the family possessions. He appears to have let the mill soon after to one Alester M`Graycht, but on the said Alester's death without heirs, in 1562, escheat of the mill, lands and all movables was granted to the Strathauchins." James married. |
