I。 ALEXANDER MACKENZIE; his eldest son and heir; who was born on the 5th of February; 1740; and afterwards became first of Portmore; settled as a W。S。 in Edinburgh; but all his life he kept up a close connection with his native county; having intimate business relations with all its principal landowners。 He was a man of undoubted ability; and the personal friend of many noted literary men of his day。 He purchased the estate of Seaton; in East Lothian; but afterwards sold it to the Earl of Wemyss; after which he purchased the estate of Portmore; Peebleshire; from the Conyears Earls of Portmore。 He married on the 25th of February; 1766; Anne; eldest daughter of Colin Mackenzie; VI。 of Kilcoy; by Martha; eldest daughter of Charles Fraser of Inverallochy and Castle Fraser; whose mother was Lady Marjory Erskine; eldest daughter of James; seventh Earl of Buchan。
