| Elizabeth's maternal aunt Magdalen Graham was mother of the last Graham of Morphie. The estate of Morphie passed to Elizabeth's son William who changed his name to Grahame. As Youngs remained at Auldbar until 1743, when the estate was sold, this implies either that Peter Young had no son and (when he died) Auldbar passed to a nephew or other relation or that, if Peter did have a son, there was a family arrangement whereby Morphie did not pass to that son (or his heir) but to Elizabeth's heir. | |||||||||||||||
