Apparently, David Ross, 13th of Balnagown left his estates to a complete stranger in blood Charles Ross who was the 2nd son of George Ross, 11th Lord Ross of Halkhead. After his death Balnagown and chiefship went to Charles' great nephew and after he also died without issue to 13th and 14th Lord Ross and after their extinction the estates and chiefship of Ross passed to Lockhart Baronets of Carstairs (Lockharts of Lee) who assumed the arms and additional surname of Ross of Balnagown despite being completely unrelated to them --> | ||
