Notes:

Christian (or Christina) and her two younger sisters were left orphans at a young age. Her father died in 1705, when Christian was only nine years old. It is said that the Mackenzies, who knew that she would succeed to a fair fortune for those days, resolved to kidnap her in order to marry her to one of their own relatives when she arrived at a suitable age. The old family nurse placed Christian in a creel, covered her over with cabbages, and walked down one avenue from the house with the creel on her back while the Mackenzies rode up the other.

The faithful nurse in this way got clear away with her charge and found her way to Foulis Castle, where Sir Robert, the twenty-third Baron, received her hospitably, and agreed, on the solicitations of the nurse, to bring up the girl until she arrived at an age to choose a husband for herself. The "Heiress of the Creel" as she was called, ultimately married Sir Robert's son, George.
