The office was held by both Alan and his father Malcom de Lundin "The Doorward". -->

+<!-- The theory behind the new coat of arms introduced in 1699 is that the family descends from a illegitimate son of William the Lion, King of Scotland who married the heiress of the Lundin family and took over their name. The line starts with Thomas de Londoniis who had two sons: Malcolm (grandfather of Alan Durward) and Philip. The main line died out in male line with Alan Durward and then reverted to the younger line which ended with the daughter of another Thomas de Lundie who married Robert, illegitimate son of William the Lion and they had Walter (de) Lundin, thus continuing and making the Lundin family a sept of the Dunkeld family.  -->
