====James Murray

An earlier version of this article suggested that Ballencrieff Castle was bought by James's brother George Murray, 6th Lord Elibank in 1755, citing 'Archaeologica Scotica' (presumably Archaeologia Scotica, but no volume number was indicated, making it impossible to verify this). However George did not become Lord Elibank until 1778. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 146.200.7.72 (talk) 23:40, 1 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]
