Henry Lindsay, 13th Earl of Crawford

[4] This position was not as lucrative as he hoped, and in 1592 with a cousin and fellow Master of Household, David Beaton of Melgund, he complained about their arduous roles and low wage compared to other officers.

[6] He probably built the house at Careston or "Carrestoun" which has fireplaces following the patterns of the French designer Jacques I Androuet du Cerceau.

[7] In 1598 he built the Charteris burial aisle at Kinfauns where his heraldry features conjoined with that of his wife Helen Chisholm, with their initials "HC" and "HCL".

They hid themselves close to the house and sent a messenger boy to get the yard gates or "yetts" opened.

[9] In 1594 Lindsay attempted to evade rents for lands and fishing at Brechin owed to Annabell Murray, Countess of Mar but the Parliament of Scotland found against him.

[12] In 1603 Sir George Home of Spott and Thomas Hamilton complained to the Privy Council of Scotland that Lindsay had gone to Perth with a dozen armed men to find his enemy Patrick Eviot.

One day Henry Finlayson was walking on his farm at Watterstoun and encountered Lindsay, who grabbed his staff from his hands and beat him with it.

The King asked the treasurer of Scotland, the Earl of Mar, to help because she had been a faithful servant to Anne of Denmark.
