Notes • 1 - Duchray by Loch Ard. Also owned Nether Glenny, Rednock, Auchyle, and the Duillator land over the Menteith Hills down by Loch Venachar. It was the same land on which many of our Macfarlanes were living at sometime or another.
He also possessed the lands of Bogton, also Dounance, east of Aberfoyle, and Glenny i.e. the Nether Glenny land and Mondowie, which it adjoins. It is fairly certain that he had the land that went over the Menteith Hills to Loch Drunkie, and Loch Venachar.
