Person:Walter Ogstoun (1)

Walter Ogiston

• IX. Walter Ogiston

Walter was the last of the Ogistons of Ogiston and Schethin. He married Jane Scrimgeour, a relation ; probably a sister of the Constable of Dundee ; had issue two daughters :-

1. Elizabeth, married, 1493 or 1494, Sir Adam Hepburne, knight, died about 1505 ; had issue three daughters – 1. Elizabeth, married to Sir ___ Livingston of Dunipace. 2. Helen, married to Sir Patrick Hepburne of Waughton. 3. Janet, married to James Auchinleck of Kennie.

2. Janet, married to George Haliburton of Gask. Adam Hepburne was tutor to the two daughters, so appointed by the King.

There were long lawsuits about the estates, but Elizabeth had them at last legally confirmed to her, and the King granted that they should be formed into the barony called Polgowny. Adam Hepburn and his wife founded a Theological Bursary in King’s College.

With them ended the elder branch of the Ogistons of that ilk, and we now return to David, supposed to be a brother of the above Walter Ogiston.
