From "Duncan the fat's descendants become Robertsons" by Joe Adair:

http://www.adair.ca/Robertson/Robertson.html

Duncan's son, Robert became second Lord of Struan about 1355. Through his second marriage, he acquired the lands of Stermont. However, his first marriage to the daughter of Sir John Sterling of Glenesk created some friction due to shared inheritance of the lands of Glenesk in Angus with her sister who married Sir Alexander Lindsay. The Lindsays had a son, Sir David Lindsay.

The Lindsays were very powerful, owning 2/3 of Angus County and were overlords of the highland district of Strathnairn. The division of land to the two sisters may have annoyed our chief.

Sir David Lindsay expected trouble from his aunt's family, and quite rightly so as it turned out. He arranged a meeting with Robert to discuss the matter. Robert did not attend. Sir David Lindsay sent a scout to find out what was going on. The scout never returned. Robert did not attend the meeting, instead secretly met with Sir Duncan Stewart who was backed by his men and the Roses from Strathnairn.

Robert had 3 younger half brothers, through their father's second marriage. They were Patrick of Lude, Thomas of Strowan and Gibbon. These brothers led a small army of our clansmen and secretly joined with Sir Duncan Stewart and his men to form an army of over 300 in 1392. They marched into Angus to the east and killed many Lindsays and their Ogilvies allies and their homes were burnt. Three thousand head of Angus cattle were stolen and driven to Rannoch.

The surviving enemy regrouped and caught up with our clan near Blairgowrie. At the battle of Glasclune, the Angus men were defeated, but we suffered heavy losses. The cattle were driven along the valley of Strathardle to our clan territory.

Still the enemy was not content to let it stand. Sir Walter Ogilvie, hereditary Sheriff of Angus, got it in his head that our clan's action was on shaky legal ground. He and his possy joined the retreating Angus men previously defeated and caught up with our men at Glenbrierachan in western Strathardle, six miles northeast of Pitlochry. Sixty mounted knights and sundry others comprised the enemy.

This steel armour and long lances were matched against our array of weapons:

Claymore - large broadsword, sharp on both edges
Targe - small, light shield which sacrifices defense to make offence easier
Dirk - dagger that can be used while the enemy fends off your claymore
We sent the Angus cattle ahead and positioned ourselves on rough ground, difficult for the enemy horses. Thus a charge by the knights with lances lowered would be difficult.

The battle did not last long. Sir David Lindsay had pinned one of our men to the ground. Our clansman pulled himself up using Sir David's own lance and using his claymore, penetrated Sir David's stirrup and armour steel boot to nearly sever Sir David's foot off, having cut through to the bone. Unfortunately, our brave clansman died later of his wounds.

In the quick defeat of the enemy and their subsequent panic, Sir Walter Ogilvie (the now late sheriff), his brother, nearly a dozen knights and about 60 others were killed by our clan. After so much harassment over this simple cattle transaction, our clan realized that

Walter married Isabel RAMSAY. Isabel (daughter of Malcolm RAMSAY and Lady Agathe OGILVY) was born in 1350 in Auchterhouse, Angus, Scotland; died in 1403 in Auchterhouse, Angus, Scotland. [Group Sheet] [Family Chart]

• Name: John Glen
• Name: John of Balmuto

Notes:

John was born about the middle of the fourteenth century, perhaps at Balmuto in Fife.

His parentage is not clearly defined but he was probably grandson of John de Glen who had a charter of Balmuto in the reign of King Robert the Bruce.

About 1380-85 he married Margaret Erskine daughter and co-heiress to Alan Erskine and Isabel Inchmartine of Inchmartine.

He was knighted towards the end of the 1390's as he appears with other who were designed knights in a charter by William Scott of Balwearie while he is designed simply John of Glen. By about 1400 he was Sir John.

His wife's sister Isabel shared in the estate of their parents including parts of Balmuto and Inchmartine.. She married Sir David de Wemyss the eldest son of Sir John de Wemyss of Reres and Kincaldrum. About 1400 the sisters and their spouses Sir John and Sir David, agreed to an exchange of lands for efficiency of management.

Also about 1400, Sir John Glen of Balmuto was witness to a charter by Thomas Lord Erskine.

Sir John and Margaret Erskine had three daughters:

1.) Margery who married who Sir Andrew Ogilvy son of Auchterhouse who by this marriage gained the title of Inchmartine.

2.) Isabel whomarried as second wife to Walter Ogilvy of Lintrathen

3.) Christian who married David Ogilvy of Kinneff who by this marriage gained the title of Balmuto,

About 1405, Sir John Glen granted the lands of Balhawell to Walter Ogilvy on his marriage to Isabel Glen. Sir John died about 1410 and was survived by his wife Margaret Erskine, Lady Inchmartine and their three daughters.

John married Lady Margaret ERSKINE, Countess of Balmuto in 1369 in Banff, Banffshire, Scotland. Margaret (daughter of Sir Alan ERSKINE, of Inchmartin and Isabel INCHMARTIN) was born on 1 Jan 1354 in Scotland; died on 20 Nov 1419 in Lindisfarne Castle, Kirkcudbright, Sutherland, Scotland.
