    "On 3rd June 1629 there is a sasine in favour of George Buchanan, in Gartincaber, Elizabeth Leckye (Leckie), his spouse, and John Buchanan, their son, of the just and equal half of the five merk land of Blairlosky, alias Blairlosk, ..."

    It is assumed that John was a party to the 1629 sasine (transfer of land) and not just mentioned as a young child of his parents. If so, according to Age of Legal Capacity (Scotland) Act 1991, John had to have been at least 14.
