224 The Kirkos, 



refers to John Kirko of Chappell, alias Glennesland.i° It 

 seems that Chapel formed part of an estate called Glenes- 

 land, which may also have included Sundaywell ; but, in the 

 absence of the early title deeds of these properties, it is 

 impossible to speak with certainty.

In 1563 a charter of confirmation, relating to the lands 

 of Auldgirth, was granted in favour of John Kirkhaugh of

 named as a witness in proceedings against Thomas Rore- 

 soun 06 Bardannoch for certain crimes of treason.!^ William 

 Kirkhaugh of Bogrie was witness to a sasine, dated 21st 

 November, 1587 ;15 and in 1597 John Kirko of Bogrie is 

 mentioned in a bond.^^. This John Kirko married Catherine, 

 daughter of William or Wilkin Johnstone of Auchinhield," 

 and died before February, 1620,1^ survived by his wife and
