ApriUtW ( a ) See vol. iii, p. 267, note "a," sub " Enniskillen," as to the titles [U.K.] selected by Scotch and Irish Peers. In this case, the person commemorated is said to have been a John de Baliuhard, who, receiving in 1353 a grant of the lands of Carnegie took that name, by which for more than 500 years [! !] his descendants have been known, and many of them become famous. That last fact would, one would have thought, have been a reason for taking the title of Carnegie or Soutkesk, especially as we read in Burke's "Peerage" (1894) that "of the origin of the De Balinhards we have no record." 0>) This and the forfeited estates in Forfarshire were in 1764 purchased for /36.S70 by Sir James Carnegie, the 3d Bart. [S.], of Pitarrow, great-grandfather of the restored Earl. ( c ) There is a very long account of this matter in " Lnd'jc."
