from Scots Peerage (vol 4)




"Katherine, born in 1604. She married, after 9th October, 1624, Alexander Ogilvie of Kempcairn, who was second son of Walter, son of the first Lord Ogilvie of Deskford. He was nominated by his nephew James, seventh of Freuchie, as one of the tutors and administrators of his children."

from Rulers of Strathspey




"From the Acts of Parliament we learn that Alexander Ogilvie of Kempcairn in 1641 was a justice for suppressing broken men, on Committee of War 1643, 1644, 1648, and 1649, a Colonel of horse and foot 1649, a Commissioner of Supply 1656 and 1659 and of Excise 1661. He married Katherine, fourth daughter of James Grant, fifth of Freuchie, and died about 1670. He had at least two sons, John and Walter. The latter appears to have predeceased his father, and on 2d March 1671 Alexander Ogilvy his son was served heir to him. This is probably the Alexander Ogilvy designed 'of Kempcairn,' who in 1677 married Elizabeth, eldest daughter of Sir Alexander Burnett of Leys."
