Notes - William de Galbraith of Gartconnel, as well as inheriting estates, acquired in addition Achrefmoltoune in Strathblane, which is presumed to be the modern Arlehaven (see Guthrie Smith's "Strathblane," p. 76). His lands were divided up between his co-heiress, one of whom, Janet, married a Douglas and became possessed of Mains, and other lands; and the other heiress married a Logan and inherited Gartconnel and other lands. What these other lands were may become apparent if we look at the Retour in 1680 of Charles II as heir to the Earldom of Lennox. The following places are included in the Retour:— The 20 mark land of Balvey, Fergustoune, Gartconnell, Ledcamroch, Bannochtoune, Camron, Camquhill and Balquhinings Logans; and the 12 pound lands of Maynes, Little Balvey, Ledcamroch, Camron, Camquhill, Balquhining and Harleheavin Douglas. (Finnart also seems to have passed to the Douglasses as, in 1501, William Douglas of Ledcamcroch sold these lands to John Colquhoun of Luss.) From these names we can gather that William Galbraith of Gartconnel, the father of the co-heiresses, had inherited (i.) Gartconnel (Cartonvenach) from Maurice (son of Gillespie); (ii.) Buchmonyn (Balfunning) from Arthur de Galbraith, and (iii.) Camquhill from Patrick Galbraith.
All this evidence leads us to the fairly safe conjecture that William Galbraith of Gartcolmel was the son of Patrick Galbraith, the son of Arthur.
