Thomas the 1st of Carbeth was the progenitor of the Buchanans of Drummkill and Carbeth. Thomas Buchanan, 1st Laird of Carbeth, had John Buchanan of Easter Ballat.

THIS REFERENCE SEEMS TO HAVE CONFUSED THE TWO THOMAS BUCHANAN'S, FATHER AND SON, AS THOMAS THE BROTHER OF PATRICK WAS SON OF SIR WALTER AND HAD SONS ROBERT, WALTER AND THOMAS, HERE IT STATES THAT THOMAS WAS GRANDSON OF WALTER. THE SON OF WALTER WOULD BE THOMAS BUCHANAN OF GARTINCABER, DRUMMIKILL AND CARBETH AND HIS SON WOULD BE THOMAS BUCHANAN, 1ST OF CARBETH

"It was while farming Moss a 40 shilling land of old extent,or a property of about 104 acres- that Thomas Buchanan, eldest son of Robert, the second of Drumikil, and grandson of [%E2%80%A6] Thomas of Bultoune, married Agnes Heriot."

In the middle of the fifteenth century a 'Thomas Buchanan' a brother of Patrick Buchanan of that Ilk, who was the 'grandson of Sir Walter bought a considerable number of estates in Stirlingshire and Perthshire. Guthrie Smith says, 1 ' a charter in his favour, granted by Patrick Buchanan of that ilk of the lands of Gartincaber .... is dated at Buchanan 1461.' He had also a charter dated at Torphichen, 3rd Feby., 1461-62, of the Temple Lands of Letter. On the 2nd October, 1472 . . . the bailie of Halden of Gleneagles gave sasine to ' Thomas Buchanan and Robert Makcalpyn of the lands of Ballvol and Camquhele.' In 1476 he purchased from Haldane of Gleneagles the lands of ' Kepdory, Carbeth, Ballawoul,' etc. In 1482 he conveyed Carbeth to his son Thomas, ' Ballyvow ' to his son Walter, and Kepdory to Robert his eldest son and heir apparent. In 1477 he acquired the Temple lands of Ballikinrain, in 1484 he had a charter from William, Lord Graham of Middle Ledlewan (the Moss). Besides these lands he bought Drumikil, half of which he gave to his son Robert in 1496. These charters and others prove that Thomas Buchanan was a success-ful money-making man.

Though he was a brother of the Laird of Buchanan, there is some reason for believing that he was illegitimate. There is a Crown charter of 1463 2 confirming an entail of the lands of Buchanan on Patrick Buchanan of that Ilk and on Patrick's son, Walter, whom failing, on the Buchanan of Leny and his six sons in succession, failing all of whom, on the brother of Buchanan of Leny. Thomas Buchanan (though the brother of Patrick, the laird of Buchanan) is not mentioned. If legitimate, he would have been the next heir after Patrick's issue, but he was passed over in favour of Buchanan of Leny, a cousin. The inference that Thomas was illegitimate is, I think, irresistible. Robert Buchanan, to whom his father gave Kepdory, half of Drurnikil, and probably Middle Ledlewan, was extravagant and insolvent. His son Thomas lived at the Moss, married Agnes Heriot, but died while still a young man, leaving a family of five sons and three daughters. The famous George Buchanan was the fifth son.
