Laird's of Kilpunt/Kinpunt, Broxburn-Kirliston
« on: Tuesday 16 March 10 00:18 GMT (UK) »
I would appreciate any assistance in finding the History of Kilpunt/Kinpunt, Broxburn - Kirkliston, West Lothian, please.

Our research shows that Alice CAMPBELL b. Abt 1710 as Heiress of Kilpunt m. John CAMPBELL of Ardeonaig, Perthshire. Alice was the 1st daughter of Alexander b. Abt 1678 & Margaret (DALMAHOY). Alexander son of James b. Abt 1647. James & wife (I do not know who) had 2 sons (Alexander + 1 other) and 1 daughter. Any help on who the other 2 children were and who did they marry, please?

I have Rev. James HART Minister at Ratho m. Mary CAMPBELL, Kirkliston, West Lothian 1701, showing on marriage certificate, was daughter of "Laird of Kilpont James". So where does Mary fit into the family and who did James Campbell b. Abt 1647 marry?  Is this the same James ??

What I have so far:-
Sir John CAMPBELL of Lawer m. Beatrix CAMPBELL
- son Archibald CAMPBELL b. Abt 1575 Glencarradale, Argyllshire m. Bessie NAPIER - had 6 children
- son Archibald CAMPBELL b. Abt 1616 Edinburgh m. 2nd wife Janet GRAY (dau. of Sir William) - had 1 son
- son James CAMPBELL  b. Abt 1647 Kinpunt m. ??? - had 2 sons (Alexander + 1 son) & 1 daughter
- son Alexander CAMPBELL b. Abt 1678 m. Margaret DALMAHOY- Had 3 daughters + 1 son.
- daughters 1. Alice b. Abt 1710 Heiress of Kilpunt, 2. Mary b. Abt 1715, 3. Elizabeth b. Abt 1717. - Son b. Abt 1711 died as child.
