About James Campbell, of Tullichewan
http://www.clanmacfarlanegenealogy.info/genealogy/TNGWebsite/getper...,
William's son inherited the estate and it was this James Campbell who became the father-in-law of Colonel Gildea of "Tullichewan Castle", Pretoria. During the Transvaal War, in 1880, the Boers, proclaiming a South African Republic, surrounded a number of British garrisons. A battalion of the Royal Scots Fusiliers, seasoned in the Zulu campaign of the previous year, defended a small fort on the south side of the besieged community of Pretoria. In command was Colonel, later Major General, George Gildea and he named the stronghold after his wife’s family mansion - Tullichewan Castle. Colonel Gildea and his wife’s home at the time was Bromley House, which was also part of the Tullichewan Estate. The Gildeas lived for a number of years in Broomley House (at different times Broomley is spelt “Bromley” at the whim of authors both official and private, but both spellings refer to the same mansion house). Another daughter was the wife of William Ewing Gilmour and they lived most of their married life at Woodbank.
