The Old Lords of Lovat and Beaufort (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-09-11) |
 | | Dame Jean Stewart, Lady Lovat, died in 1622 at her favourite residence of Bunchrew, and asked to be buried beside her favourite son, Sir Simon Fraser of Inverallochy (1597-1620); her second son being Sir James Fraser of Brae (1612-1649). |
 | | Glendinning was Lovat’s creditor, or had advanced a sum of 1000 merks, and for this the latter pledged the Town and Lands of Kinmylies, in the regality of Spiny, the annual amount payable by Glendinning being 16 bolls victual, in name of ferme or rent. |
 | | Although Lord Lovat was not in favour of his son accepting a lieutenant-colonelcy in the army of Scotland, arranged by General Leslie, the Master accepted the post and, while spending the winter in Edinburgh with his wife, suffered an illness from which he died in April 1643. |
