Laurence, the eldest son of Laurence and Lilias
Oliphant, was established as second Laird of Gask in
August 1632. His Great Seal charter is dated 9th
March 1633. He married eighteen months after his
father's death Lilias, the eldest daughter of his cousin Patrick, sixth Lord Oliphant.
Laurence Oliphant was born about 1610 at Newton of Pitcains, Perthshire, Scotland to James and Marjorie Grahame Oliphant. He married Lilias Graham April 10, 1634 at Innerwick, East Lothian, Scotland and their children were: Anna, Patrick, Lilias, Laurence, Andrew, Archibald, Charles, John, Andrew (again), David, Elizabeth and Charles (again). Laurence died July 20, 1679 at Scotland where he is presumed buried.
This was in the sources with hos son's sources
(from Oliphants of Gask)
The years of the married life of Laurence and Lilias
Oliphant were certainly not without troubles. Laurence
Oliphant himself seems to have been of a fairly peaceable
disposition ; but he certainly was involved in the feud
which caused the killing of Gilbert Gray in 1605. Patrick
Gray of Bandirran includes him in the discharge he
granted to Lord Oliphant in 1617. The William and
Laurence Oliphant, styled of Gask, who were implicated
in the murder of the boy Toscheach, of Monzievaird, in
1618, were uncles of the fifth lord not to be confused
with Laurence of Ross and Lamberkin, and his brother,
William of Orchardmill. The charter of the barony of Cask
was on the old lines of that historic charter granted
two hundred and seventy years before to "our beloved
and faithful Walter Olyfaunt and his spouse, Elizabeth,
our beloved sister." Lord Oliphant now gave a charter
of Gask with all its woods and fishings, and special
liberty of fishing in the water Earn for three days in
forbidden time,
"to be held of the King in blench ferm fee, for yearly
rendering, if asked, at the feast of the Nativity of John
the Baptist, of a chaplet of White Roses."
When Laurence and Lilias are established in the
House of Gask there rises about the records of them a
sense of reality. They were in middle life. Jean and
Margaret, their daughters, were still with them. All their
sons were grown up. The days of their historical importance
were past ; they were settling down to quieter times,
to the serene life of country people, at a time when rights
and property were beginning to be more respected. Now
were formed those staunch friendships with other old
families of Strathearn, the Hurrays, the Drummonds, the
Graemes, the Robertsons, which were to outlast many
generations. Doubtless, too, the Oliphants would be
intimate with their neighbours and kinsmen across the
Strath, six miles away the family of Montrose at Kincardine,
where the seven children would be of about the
same age as some of the Gask sons and daughters.
All the married life of Laurence and Lilias Oliphant
was passed in a time of peace ; Lilias alone was to see
the "Great Troubles."
Laurence Oliphant, the first Laird of Gask, died 22nd
July 1632. He had been possessor of Gask only five
years. The following is an extract of his will :
"I, Laurence Oliphant of Gask, being seik in bodie,
haill alwayis in spirit and of perfyt memorie . . .
recommend my saull to God Almightie and ordeins my
bodie to be bureit in the earth within the Kirk of Gask,
reverently."
He left a legacy to Lilias Drummond of Pitkellony his
"oy" in remembrance of his love. His executors are to
"cause bild above my buriell plaice ane sufficient and
cumlie yle (aisle) with ane loft above the same."
Laurence married Lilias OLIPHANT on 19 Feb 1634 in Findo-Gask, Perth, Scotland.
