BALFOUR AND CO. r ','. - 1 ' c .-' M * ^JHE present Genealogical History, which is now printed for the first time, was com- piled in the year 1681, and has always been esteemed a work of authority. The Author enjoyed the best advantages for the prosecu- tion of his labours, not only in obtaining the use of the several accounts drawn up by previous writers, but in having free access to original papers, and to every other source of information regarding the collateral branches of a Family to which he himself was nearly related, and finally became so distinguished an ornament. The Honourable William Drummond, youngest son of John Second Lord Maderty, was raised to the dignity of the Peerage, on the 6th of September 1686, by the title of Viscount of Strath- allan. At the time of his decease, which happened in January 1688, he held the appointment of General of the Forces in Scotland. —He was interred at Innerpeffry on the 4th of April, when Principal Monro of Edinburgh preached his Funeral Sermon, mentioning several curious and interesting particulars of his life, which will be found in the Appendix. In the Appendix also, along with occasional Notes and Illustra- tions of the Pedigree is inserted an account of the Family written by William Drummond of Hawthornden, the celebrated poet, which was thought worthy of preservation as a literary relique, although the information it contains is completely embodied in the fuller and more detailed work of Lord Strathallan. The impression of this volume, which is intended for private circulation, is limited to One hundred copies, and four upon large paper. EDINBURGH, DECEMBER M.DCCC.XXXI.

My Lord, Take heire a view of youre noble and renowned Anceftors, of whofe blood yow are defcended in a right and uninterrupted male lyne ; as alfo of fo many of the confanguinities and ancient affinities of youre Family in the infancy thereof, as the penurie of our oldeft records and the credit of our beft traditions hes happily preferved from the grave of oblivion : bot which are in the fucceeding and modern times, with all the items ilhewed from that fruitful! root, more clearely and more certainely layd before yow. It hes been the regraite of many weill affected to youre Name and Family, that ane orderly collection of the pedegree of a trybe fo confiderable and of fo long Handing fhould find no hand, in fo many ages, to fet about and accomplim the fame ; for albeit diverfe learned and judicious per- fones have offered at fome parts of it, who, through defect of Authen- tick documents, made bot fmall progres, and wanted not theire own miftakes, yet not one hitherto hes adventured to draw the entire fcheme, and finiih the work defyred. Sir Robert Drummond of Midhoop left fome Memorialls upon this fubject ; and fo did Sir Patrick Drummond, Confervator for the 4 THE DEDICATION Scots nation at Camphyre in Zeland ; Mr. Ninian Drummond, parfon at Kinnoull, a man well verfed in the antiquities of youre Houfe, gave fome informations to advance the defigne ; and the famous Mr. William Drummond of Hathornden framed a breefe relation of the pedegree of the Family, and erected a goodly tree of the flock, branches and neareft allayes thereof. Bot Mr. John Freebairn, minifter at Maddertie, beftowed moft labour, was fuplyed with the belt helps, and came neareft to the point, if he had treated upon that head only : Semper ego auditor tantum. My Lord, from the well-founded relations of all thefe fyve men, bot more from the remnants of youre own authentick evidences, the particular wrytts and charters of fome Cadets of youre Houfe, with other hiftorical remarks, traditions, and manufcripts, the following narration is gleaned and fet together. In deduceing whereof, if any errors bees found, (and upon fo ancient a fubject who dare affirme positively upon every particular), I fliall humbly fubmit to better inquyries, and either produce authority to exoner me, or bear the blame ; neverthelefs, if any perfon will difcover the miftakes that have efcaped my informers, it fliall be very acceptable and thankfully receaved by me ; for praife I deferve none, except it be for fome fmall paines in fearching of old records, and delivering the collections of fome, and traditions of others, in a worfe method and more vulgar ftyle then themfelves could have done, which me thinks merits bot very litle. The work is defigned only for youre Lordfhips fatisfaction, and fuch as yow think fit to communicat it too, bot not for publick view. And I am fo well fupported againft all criticifms in this under- taking, by the hopes of youre acceptance, which I am accuftomed fo chearfully to meet with in every thing wherein I propofe to ferve yow, that I ftand in fear of no cenfure or detraction elfwhere. My Lord, this Genealogie I now prefent to yow will clear the uncontroverted antiquity and excellent renowne of youre Family in — TO JAMES EARL OF PERTH. 5 the general ; bot it fhal ferve that I give you heire only a couple of compendious inftances to demonftrat the fame in particular. Firft, our Soveraigne Lord and Monarch King Charles the Second is the twentieth perfon in a right line from Walter, the Firft great Stuart of Scotland, fprung from the ancient ftock of our 108 Scots Kings ; and yow are in direct order of fucceffion alfo the twentieth head of youre family, from Maurice Drummond the firft Thane of Lennox, defcended from the ancient nobility of the Kingdome of Hungary, who was contemporary with that Walter, the firft great Stuart of Scotland ; and both with King Malcolm the Third, called Keandmore, in whofe time the degrees of nobility and diftinctions of fyrnames tooke begining in this land. 2. His Sacred Majefty is lineally defcended from one daughter of youre Houfe in the ninth, and from ane other daughter in the fixth degree ; and I think few families in the nation can boaft of the lyke honour, faveing the famous houfes of Douglas and Lennox, who make bot up two of the fteps of thefe fex degrees, and confequently both come of youres, as will appear in the body of this collection. The fplendor of youre Family needs no commendation more then the fune does a candle, and even a litle of the truth from me may be obnoxious to the flander of flattery or partiality, by reafon of my intereft in it ; therefore I'le fay the lefs ; only this is generally known for a truth, that juftice, loyaltie, and prudence, which have been bot incident vertues and qualities in others, are all three as inherent orna- ments, and hereditary in youres. For jullice, as a poor ftranger, often thruft out of doors from great houfes, where grandor and utility are commonly the idolls thats wor- (hipped quid iiori mortalia pectora cogis—lies alwayes found fanctuary in youres, which hes been ever ane incouragement to the good, a terror to the bad, and free from the oppreffion of either.

It presents the history of the Clan and houses many precious artifacts. The rebuilt Cluny Castle is nearby (see below), once the home of the chief. The front cover of this chapter is the view up the Spey Valley from the memorial near Newtonmore to the Macpherson‟s greatest chief; Col. Ewan Macpherson of Cluny of the ‟45. Clearly, the district of Badenoch has long been the home of the Macphersons. It was not always so. This chapter will make clear how Clan Macpherson acquired their traditional lands in Badenoch. It means explaining why Clan Macpherson emerged from the Old Clan Chattan, was both a founding member of the Chattan Confederation and yet regularly disputed Clan Macintosh‟s leadership, why the Chattan Confederation expanded and gradually disintegrated and how Clan Macpherson gained its property and governance rights. The next chapter will explain why the two groups played different roles leading up to the Battle of Culloden in 1746. The following chapter will identify the earliest confirmed ancestor in our family who moved to Portsoy on the Banff coast soon after the battle and, over the decades, either prospered or left in search of new opportunities.

    DORSET AS a LOCAL MAGNATE, 1624-1642. in the Previous Chapter

    CHAPTER FIVE: DORSET AS A LOCAL MAGNATE, 1624-1642. In the previous chapter, I argued that Dorset's ecclesiastical patronage is best understood as one dimension of his local influence: most of the benefices in his gift lay near his Sussex estates, and he nearly always chose local men to serve them. 1 I now want to explore more fully Dorset's career as a provincial magnate from his inheritance of the earldom to the outbreak of civil war. I will suggest that muscle in local politics and government depended on three things above all: first, the tenure of specific offices, such as the Lord Lieutenancy of a county, or the High Stewardship of a borough; second, residence in a particular district, and the local knowledge which this yielded; and third, the location of landed estates. The first three sections of this chapter analyse how these variables interacted in Sussex, where Dorset was Lord Lieutenant from 1624, and where his territorial base was concentrated. We will see that Dorset's extensive selling of land to payoff his elder brother's debts did not per se reduce his local clout, and that the office of Lord Lieutenant retained considerable power, especially in military and fiscal matters. However, the Lord Lieutenancy did not necessarily confer electoral patronage, and it seems that Dorset's ------------------------- 1. See Chapter Four, above, pp. 242-3. -260- parliamentary candidates were most consistently successful where they had a local background. In the fourth section, I will strengthen these conclusions with evidence from outside Sussex, and suggest that recent discussion of the early Stuart electorate has tended to neglect the central conflict of interest between noblemen sponsoring their men-of-business and corporations seeking representatives with local knowledge.

    Ë D IMBUR6H I 8 6 9. THE CHIEFS OF COLQUHOUN AND THEIR COUNTRY. Impression: One Hundred and Fifty Copies, In Two Volumes. PRINTED FOR SIR JAMES COLQUHOUN OF COLQUHOUN AND LUSS, BARONET. No. /4 ?; ^ Presented to V PREFACE. AMONG the baronial families of Scotland, the chiefs of the Clan Colquhoun occupy a prominent place from their ancient lineage, their matrimonial alliances, historical associations, and the extent of their territories in the Western Highlands. These territories now include a great portion of the county of Dumbarton. Upwards of seven centuries have elapsed since Maldouen of Luss obtained from Alwyn Earl of Lennox a grant of the lands of Luss; and it is upwards of six hundred years since another Earl of Lennox granted the lands of Colquhoun to Humphrey of Kil- patrick, who afterwards assumed the name of Colquhoun. The lands and barony of Luss have never been alienated since the early grant of Alwyn Earl of Lennox. For six generations these lands were inherited by the family of Luss in the male line; and in the seventh they became the inheritance of the daughter of Godfrey of Luss, commonly designated " The Fair Maid of Luss," and, as the heiress of these lands, she vested them by her marriage, about the year 1385, in her husband, Sir Eobert Colquhoun of Colquhoun. The descendant from that marriage, and the repre­ sentative of the families of Colquhoun and Luss, is the present baronet, Sir James Colquhoun.
