(-d. bef. 1671) (Continues below) • George Lockhart, the only son of the marriage between Allan Lockhart and Grizel Bannatyne, had bestowed upon him the lands of Tarbrax, in the parish of Dunsyre, which his father had purchased. George died after 1612. [UWL] George being the only son of Grizel Bannatyne, is disputed by a [NAS] record which states that Robert is also a son of Grizel Bannatyne. It appears there were other sons, as well, born to Allan Lockhart after the death of his first wife Elizabeth Ross. [ISL] • In the Supplement to Douglas’ Baronage, George, Laird of Tarbrax, is stated to be the fourth son of Allan Lockhart of Cleghorn, by his marriage with Elizabeth, sister to Lord Ross.
