[1] George Haliburton joined with his East Lothian neighbour and kinsman Patrick Hepburn, Lord Hailes, in the rebellion against James III of Scotland which culminated in the king's death at the battle of Sauchieburn in 1488.
[2] In 1474, George resigned his title to his eldest son Archibald, who had married Helen 'Ellen' Schaw or Shaw, daughter of James Schaw of Sauchie, keeper of Stirling Castle.
Archibald died at the battle of Sauchieburn, and his widow Helen 'Ellen' Shaw next married Sir Patrick Hume, the 2nd Baron Hume of Polwarth, and by him had additional issue.
Upon George's death, the title of Lord Halyburton passed to Archibald's son James, who died having left no heirs.
