Sheet 43 No 8 Trace 3 -- Parish of Glamis
[Note]
"It was anciently the property of the Ogilvies of Powrie, who had their residence in a castle, now totally demolished. It
afterwards became the property of Graham of Claverhouse. The last of his family fell, in the Rebellion, at the battle of Killiecrankie,
and the estate was forfeited; and as it did not hold of the Crown, it riverted to the Douglas family, who were the superiors."
