    Lawrence Crawfurd, of Kilbirney. It appears that a portion of the ancient lordship of Crawfurd, in Lanarkshire, (the greater part of which had passed to the Lindsays, Earls of Crawfurd, by marriage,) still continued in the possession of the house of Kilbirney, as descended from this ancient stock. These remnants of the barony of Crawfurd, this Lawrence exchanged with Sir James Hamilton, of Finnart, for the lands of Drumray, in Dumbartonshire. He also made a pious and charitable donation in 1547, the year of his death. He m. Helen Campbell, daughter of Sir Hugh Campbell, of Loudon, by whom he had,

    I. Hugh.
    II. John, of Easter Greenock.
