an, his cousin-germ an, son to John Buchanan, se-
cond son to Robert, second of that name, laird of
Lenny, his mother being Stirling of Ardoch's
daughter. John, laird of Lenny last mentioned,
married the laird of M'Pharlan's daughter, by
whom he had two sons, John, his eldest son, mar-
ried Lennox of Woodhead's daughter, and died
without issue. His second son was Henry, who
upon his brother's death succeeded to the estate of
Lenny. He was first married to a second daughter
of Buchanan of that ilk. He married secondly a
daughter of Campbel of Lawers, having by both a
numerous issue.
The first cadet of the family of Lenny, according
to the genealogical manuscript of that family, was
Walter, third son to Andrew, laird of Lenny.
This Walter obtained a beneficial tack of Mochas-
tel in Callander paroch, from Balfour, lord Bur-
leigh's ancestor, then proprietor thereof. Walter's
son was called Andrew, whose son Patrick, had one
son, Alexander.
This Alexander had two sons, John his eldest,
and Walter, who obtained from his father the wed-
set or feu-right of the lands of Glenny in Mon-
teath, his eldest brother, John, having preferred
the tack of Mochastel to the heritage of Glenny,
possessed the same, allowing his brother that of
Glenny. The last of that race who possessed the
same, was captain James Buchanan, grandchild to
the above Walter, who lived a good part of his
time, and died a captain in Douglass's regiment in
France, being never married, he sold his interest
of Glenny to Walter Graham of Gartmor's family.
