| Notes |
- James, the eldest son, went out in the '45; a devoted adherent of Prince Charles Edward, he went abroad with his Prince after Culloden and, as his name was on the list of attainder, he could never return or take up his estate; he died like many of his compatriots at the Scots College in Paris where he held the rank of colonel; a man of almost unprecedented strength, it is related how he would lift between his teeth the large round mahogany table that stands in the lobby at Airth, or taking the kitchen poker he would twist it round his wrist, or round the necks of two Highlanders!
