Muniment - Hill 54 1729
Muniment Hill 54 was created in 1729. It has been transcribed/translated and is now available for CMW members to read on the website under Muniments.
This is regarding “Memoranda” “Memorials” and “Letters” relative to a Minute of Sale in 1720 (Hill 50) and consequent “Inhibitions”, “Horning”, and “Adjudication” at the instance of James Graham the 1st Duke of Montrose and 4th Marquess of Montrose against Alexander MacFarlane and his father Andrew. Alexander MacFarlane was the 7th Baron of Gartartan and Andrew MacFarlane was the 6th Baron of Gartartan. These were complicated by the divorce of Anna Graham the second daughter of John Graham of Killearn (Hill 57) who divorced Alexander MacFarlane in 1720. Alexander’s younger brother John now the 8th Baron of Gartartan, owner of Barony of Auchentroig and 1st of Ballagan has now been left to deal with the situation regarding the Duke of Montrose and Gartartan lands with litigation and disbursements.
