• Notes

  Described as one of the " Magnates of Scotland." He fought and was taken prisoner at the battle of Neville's Cross, or Redhill, Durham, on the 17th October, 1346. This Sir Robert de Chisholme married Anne, daughter and heiress of Sir Robert Lauder of Ouarrelwood, Con- stable of Urquhart Castle, on Lochness. He is the first of the name of which any trace is found in the North of Scotland, and it will be shown that from him are descended all the Chisholms of the north. There were certain church lands, in the vicinity of Castle Urquhart, which, on the 6th of December, 1344, being the feast of St. Nicholas, were granted by John, Bishop of Moray, to Sir Robert Lauder. These lands were afterwards possessed by Robert de Chis- holme. In 1345 there is a grant of them in his favour by John Randolph, Earl of Moray, probably on the occa- sion of Chisholme's marriage to Anne, Sir Robert Lauder's daughter and co-heiress.
