Below is an extract from a document which explains the aquisition of DRANIE by WALTER KINNAIRD OF CULBIN The date of this laird's demise is uncertain. He married (1) Marjory Dunbar, probably in 1511, for on 9th January of that year the King confirmed to him and her in combined fee, the lands of Delpottine (with the mill and grain-grinding f ees). This may have been in partial implement of their marriage contract. He married (2) Margaret Murray. He had at least two sons, Alexander of Culbin and Patrick. The latter was possibly the Patrick Kinnaird, who in 1547 received a charter of the lands of Salterhill (Little Drainie), in possession of which he was succeeded by his son John and his grandson Patrick, the last-named of whom disposed of them to James Innes of Meikle Drainie in 1616. ------------------------------ When in 1567 James Hepburn, Earl of Bothwell, married his infatuated Queen, the realm of Scotland was sharply divided into two camps. One of which Mary's half-brother, James Stewart of Moray, was the leader, and in the other the Earl of Huntly was a prominent follower of Mary. On June 13th the two parties faced each other at Carberry Hill close by the field of Pinkie, where, twenty years before, Alex. Kinnaird had fought and died in the company of Huntly, against an English army. Now his son, too followed Huntly, but on this occasion the enemies were rival Scots. No blood was spilt. The forces supporting Mary and her husband were weakened by desertion , and of those who remained, some were wavering and half-hearted. The upshot was that Mary gave herself up to the insurgent lords, Bothwell fled, and their supporters were dispersed. This was in June, and seven months later a convention of Estates summoned Bothwell and his followers to appear in answer to a charge of treason. Among them were Patrick Hepburn, the last Catholic Bishop of Moray, three of his natural sons , James Innes of Drainie, Thomas Tulloch of Fleurs (later of Tannachie), two other members of his family, and Walter Kinnaird of Culbin (his nephew).
Succeeded by Alexander (of Cromey) Innes

21st Chief of Clan Innes. Inherited the estates from his brother, in 1576, when his brother was beheaded.
He was known as "The Weak Laird" and was not a good manager of the family's wealth. Resigned his chiefship in 1577 to Alexander Innes of Cromey, grand-nephew of the 13th chief, Alexander.

20th Chief of Clan Innes. A gallant gentleman but with a hot temper. 1576 - Killed a clansman, Innes of Pethnik, (may not have been the Laird of Pethnik, but his brother *) at Edinburgh's Cross either by shooting or stabbing him (opinions vary). Afterwards he did not run away but stayed there until he was arrested, and was subsequently beheaded by the Regent Morton. The extensive Innes estates were thereafter forfeit to the crown.* This was probably Walter Innes brother of Thomas
