About James Carnegie, 3rd of Balnamoon

His eldest surviving son, Sir John, second of Balnamoon, "a man of extravagant tastes", married in 1642 and had an eldest son, James, third of Balnamoon. He died in 1700, having married twice. By his first marriage to Margaret, daughter of Sir Alexander Carnegie of Pittarrow - another Carnegie descent - he had James, 4th of Balnamoon, died unmarried. Alexander, who succeeded his brother, and the above Elizabeth, married to John Graham of Balgowan.

The Carnegies of Balnamoon did not matriculate their own arms at the Lyon Office, it seems; but like lots of Carnegies they unofficially used the eagle displayed. - Rob Maxtone Graham/Robert Maxtone Graham 1/2002.
