JOHNSTON, Patrick in Belhelvie 1User ID: B727. Patrick married Margaret ARBUTHNOTT, daughter of John ARBUTHNOTT of Cairngall and Unknown.1 (Margaret ARBUTHNOTT was born about 1586.) Marriage Notes: "On 6th September, 1601, Lord Glamis murdered Patrick Johnston, who was one of his tenants in Belhelvie, and had married Margaret Arbuthnot, believed to be the daughter of John Arbuthnot, first Laird of Cairngall. This outrage, which will be described in detail later, no doubt added to the acrimony of the situation, and quickened Lord Glamis's desire to be rid of the Arbuthnots, who might be meditating revenge for the crime."
