   User ID: M690

  General Notes:

"James was served as his father's heir in 1518. Although his father had held the office of sherrif of Fife for some time, it had passed to James' uncle John Lindsay, Master of Pitcruvie, under a Privy Seal grant from the 30th of May 1524. James tried very hard to get this office returned to him, but without avail.
