Greer corrigenda

Of Sea Park, Carrickfergus

In p. 235, infra, first column, there is a generation omitted between Nos. 13 and 14, which makes Thomas MacGregor Greer to be No. 29 instead of No. 28 on that family pedigree.

No. 13. was succeeded by his son:

14. Gilbert Grierson, Laird of Lag, who mar. Isabel, Lady Rocail, daughter of David de Kirkpatrick of Rocail (now “Rock Hall”), Dumfriefshire. By this matrimonial alliance the Rock Hall estate came into possession of the Griersons, and is at the present time the Residence of Sir Alexander Grierson, 9th Bart., the head of that family, after four hundred years’ possession in the same family. Gilbert (No. 14) was succeeded by his son;

15. Vedast Grierson, of Lag, who in 1457 succeeded to the family estates on the death of his elder brother Gilbert. Vedast mar. Isabel, dau. of William de Dalrymple of Stair (ancestor of the Earls of Stair), by his wife Agnes Kennedy; and was succeeded by his son:

16. Roger Grierson, of Lag, who was fatally wounded at Sauchieburn in 1488, etc. (As mentioned in the pedigree, at No. 15.)
