John his eldest son, designed of Leuchars, married Elizabeth Douglas, only daughter procreat betwixt Archibald Douglas of Petindreich and Elizabeth Sutherland daughter to the Laird of Duffus.
This John did beget with Elizabeth Douglas five sons that came to be men and seven daughters, viz.,
5 sons, John, Alexander, Robert, George, and Samuel.
The eldest son John married without consent of his friends, Marjiorie Geddes, daughter to James Geddes of Achinreath, who was brother-german to Andrew Geddes of Essill, who though now extinct as to ane family, was the representative of the family of Geddes. And her mother's name was Margaret Innes, only daughter to Archibald Innes, brother-german to the Laird of Balvenie, procreat upon Barbara Innes, relict of Dunbreck baron of Ortoun after she had born 24 children to the said Baron. And this Barbara was daughter to Mr. John Innes of Coxtoune; So this Marjiorie Geddes was ane gentlewoman, and proved ame virtuous wife and bore to this her husband 18 children, whereof ten came to the perfection of men and women, and are all alive at this day (1710) except Walter, who was youngest, and basely murdered at Chattam; after he had wounded his antagonist and taken his sword, he treacherously thrust him thorow the back in cold blood and in peace.
The eldest was John, Robert, Alexander, Charles, James, William, and Walter. This John was ill trysted in his affairs, hurried with the Lairds of Innes and their accomplices, and so, out of credit as to any fortune, under the repute of ane broken man, did not marry till he was full 49 years of age, before he got his business in order, and then married Elizabeth Gordon, daughter to Sir George Gordon of Edinglassie. So this being the true accompt of this family I shall.
