Logan

In 1316 Robert granted to John of Logan eighteen oxgangs of land with a malt-kiln and four cottar-lands in Lyntounrothryk. Whether this was a portion of the original estate or its entirety is not clear, however soon after Logan granted all of his lands of Lintounrothirrikis to Sir William Douglas of Kincavil, Lord of Hermiston, for the payment of one silver penny annually. Logan’s grant to Sir William was confirmed by David II in 1340.
