  • Douglass, Robert. The Baronage of Scotland: Containing, An Historical and Genealogical Account of the Gentry of that Kingdom. (London: Cadell & Davies, 1798), Page 217.
This ancient branch of the illustrious house of Buckcleugh, appears to have been descended from that family when they resided in Lanarkshire.
They were proprietors of the lands of Clumbeith, Scotsloch, and some tenements about Irvine in the west country several centuries ago, and always had for their armorial bearing the simple arms of Buckcleugh, with a proper difference for a younger son, etc.
But as we have had no access to their family writs, we cannot pretend to deduce them from their origin.
The first of them who settled in the Lothians was
I. James Scot of Scotsloch, who lived in the reigns of Queen Mary, and King James VI.
He was the father of Laurence Scot II.
