About Sir Robert de Chisholme, 6th of Chisholme, Sheriff of Inverness-shire

Name Suffix: Sir Sir Robert de Chisholm. In 1358, the Justices of the King, of whom Robert de Chisholme, described as Lord of Chisholme in Roxburthshire and Constable of the Castle of Urquhart on Loch Ness, was one, remits a fine to Alexander de Chisholm. This Alexander appears to have been Sir Robert's second son who afterwards succeeded to the Chiefship and estates on the death of his elder brother John without male issue, and who by his marriage with Margaret de la Ard acquired the Erchless portion of the Bisset property and other extensive estates in the North.

Sir Robert is said to have been appointed to the offices of Constable of Urquhart Castle and Sheriff of Inverness-shire in 1359 by David II, by whom he was knighted in 1357. On the 8th of April, 1359, "Lord Robert de Chesholme, Sheriff of the county of Inverness, gave in his accounts, with all his expenses and receipts from Martinmas, 1357." He granted six acres of land to the Holy Rood of the Church of Inverness, for the benefit of the poor of the parish, by deed, dated the 14th September, 1362, being the feast of the Holy Rood. In this deed he describes himself as "Robert de Chesholme, Knight, and Lord of the same." The lands are still partly in possession of the Kirk Session of the parish, and are known as Diriebught, or Tir nam bochd - the lands of the poor. The deed is in the Inverness charter chest, and is in excellent preservation, with Sir Robert's seal attached fresh and entire. It is printed at length by Mr Fraser-Mackintosh, beginning thus: "To all who shall see or hear of this charter, Sir Robert de Chesholme, Lord of the same, wishes eternal salvation in the Lord; since it is known to all that all flesh returns into dust, and that there is nothing after death except He who is the true safety and who redeemed the human race on the cross." The follows a description of the lands, which he grants "for the salvation of his own soul, and the souls of his ancestors and successors, for making an increase of divine worship forever to the altar of the Holy Rood of Inverness." The charter is witnessed, among others, by Thomas de Fenton 'Alderman' of the burgh, and 'Weland Shishlac,' the exact phonetic equivalent of our Gaelic 'Siosalach' of today, who is described as a burgess of Inverness. In a deed dated 1364, Sir Robert speaks of his grandfather, after whom he has himself apparently been named, as Sir Robert Lauder of Quarrelwood. This conclusively established his father's marriage to Quarrelwood's daughter; and the fact that he succeeded to all his maternal grandfather's property in the counties of Inverness, Nairn, and Moray, clearly proves that his mother was Sir Robert Lauder's only child and sole heiress.

The Sir Robert Chisholme designates himself in a document, describing the proceedings of a court held at Balloch Hill, near Inverness, in connection with these lands, and dated the 25th of January, 1376, as "Robert de Cheshelme, Lord of that Ilk, Justiciary of the said Regality of Moray." His name appears four years later, in a Protest by the Bishop and clergy of Moray in opposition to claims made at that time by the Wolfof Badenoch to the superiority of the Bishop's church lands in Badenoch.The document is dated 11th October 1380. The Bishop makes protest, that,'we lately, in the month of August last past, in the Church of St Mary of INverness, before our Lord the King and the illustrious men the Lords, the Earls of Carrick and Fife, sons of our Lord the King, and Lord andEarl of Moray, the reverend father in Christ, Lord John, by the Grace of God Bishop of Dunkeld, Chancellor of Scotland, John Lyon, Chamberlain of Scotland, Thomas de Erskine, Robert de Cheshelm, Knights, and many others, disclaimed you Lord Alexander and your consort, and acknowledged our Lord and King, (then follows the description of the lands in question) and we deny that we hold these lands of you."

Notes for Chief Sir Robert de CHISHOLM 5th Of Chisholm

V. Sir Robert de Chisholme, described as one of the “Magnates of Scotland.“ He fought and was taken prisoner at the battle of Neville’s Cross, Redhill, Durham, on the 17th October, 1346.

This sir Robert de Chisholm married Anne, daughter and heiress of sir Robert Lauder of Quarrelwood, Constable of Urquhart Castle, on Lochness. He is the first of the name of which any trace is found in the North of Scotland, and it will be shown that from him are descended all the Chisholms of the north.

There were certain church lands, in the vicinity of Castle Urquhart, which on the 6th of December, 1344, being the feast of St. Nicholas, were granted by John, Bishop of Moray, to Sir Robert Lauder. These lands were afterwards possessed by Robert de Chisholme. In 1345 there is a grant of them in his favour by John Randolph, Earl of Moray, probably on the occasion of Chisholme’s marriage to Anne, Sir Robert Lauder’s daughter and co-heiress. Sir Robert Chishholme’s son subsequently, in 1386, resigned them in favour of Alexander, Bishop of Moray, who immediately disposed of them to Alexander, Earl of Buchan, the “Wolf of Badenoch.” …

By the first of these interesting documents, dated at Elgin in 1334, bishop John has “given, granted, and in feu farm demitted to the noble person, Sir Robert de Lawadyr, Knight, for his manifold services done to our said Church, a half davoch of our lands of Aberbreachy (Abriachan) lying between the barony of Bonach (Bona) on the east on the one side and the barony of Urchard on the west on the other, together with our lands of Achmunie, lying between the lands of Drumbuie on the east on the one side, and the land of Cartaly on the west on the other, within the barony of Urchard foresaid, with the pertinents: To be held and had by the said Sir Robert and heirs of us and our successors for ever, with their rights, marches and divisions, freely, quietly, fully, peacefully, and honourably; etc., etc., for which Sir Robert and his heirs were taken bound to pay the Bishop and his successors, four merks sterling per annum …

In the charter of 1386 granting the same lands to Alexander Buchan, Bishop of Moray, the lands are described in identical terms, “which lands,” Bishop Alexander says, “with the pertinents to Sir Robert de Chishelme, Knight, lord of that ilk, held of us in chief, and he induced neither by force nor fear, nor deceived by error, but by pure and spontaneous free will, did give up and purely and simply resign into our hands by staff and baton, the foresaid lands with the pertinents, and all rights and claims which he, the said Knight, or his heirs had or could in future have in the said lands, with the pertinents.” It will be observed that the Sir Robert Chisholme who possessed these lands in Abriachan and Glenurquhart, is in this last quoted charter described as “lord of that ilk,” or in other words, the head of his house.

The same Sir Robert Chisholme refused to pay multures for his lands of Quarrelwood to the prior of Pluscardine, who appealed to the Bishop of Moray, and, in April, 1390, his lordship issued a monition to Sir Archibald Douglas, in which it is set forth that “the mulctures of the lands of Quarrywood, in the Sheriffdom of Elgin, at that time (King Alexander’s) unimproved, but now reduced to cultivation, belongs and appertains to the mill of Elgin from which it is scarcely a mile distant.” The mills of Elgin and Forres, and other mills depending on them, had been gifted to the priory by “Alexander, King of Scotland, of pious memory.” The monition pleads undisturbed possession, with the full knowledge and tolerance of Robert de Chisholme, Knight, during the preceding reigns, and “further asserts and declares that the said Robert had seized and bound a certain husbandman of the lands of Kindrassie, to whom the prior had by contract let the said mulctures, and thrown him into a private prison, by which he (Sir Robert) directly incurred the sentence of excommunication”

The civil judges are in the same document threatened with similar punishmen if they interfere in the dispute or question the pretensions of the ecclesiastical courts to determine the rights of the parties in the quarrel. On the 16th of the same month, Sir Thomas, the prior, records a solemn protest against sir Robert de Chisholme’s proceedings. The two, however, seem to have continued on the most friendly terms, for on th 1st of May following, they both witness a charter by John of Dunbar, Earl of Moray, in favour of the town of Elgin, by which the Earl granted to that burgh in all time coming the ale of assize which belonged to him as constable of the Castle of Elgin.

By his marriage with Anne, daughter and heiress of Sir Robert Lauder of Quarrelwood,

Sir Robert de Chisholme had issue:

1. Sir Robert, his heir and successor.

2. William de Chisholme, a churchman, and Treasurer of Moray, whose name is mentioned in 1371 …

3. Janet, who in 1364, married Hugh Rose, IV of Kilravock. the marriage contract is dated 2nd of January in that year, and is witnessed and sealed by the Bishops of Ross and Moray, and by William, Earl of ross and Lord of Skye.

To this Hugh Rose, IV of Kilravock, who married Janet Chisholme, the author of the history of that family makes the following reference:

“I finde him mentioned in a contract matrimoniall betwixt him and Joneta de Chesholme, daughter of Sir Robert Chesholme, constable of the Castle of Urquhart. He was also Chesholme of that Ilk, and in the right of his mother, daughter of Sir Robert Lauder, succeeded to Quarrelwood, Kinsterie, Brightmannie, etc. This contract, because it is Kilravock’s original right of his lands in Strathnairn, and through the character, contractions, and bad ink, is scarce legible already, therefore I have here transcribed it.”

He then quotes it at length in the original Latin. We give the following translation of the portion which, along with the preceding quotation from the manuscript history of the family of Kilravock, proves that the Sir Robert de Chisholme who owned so much land in the Highlands, and was Constable of Urquhart Castle, was also Sir Robert Chisholme of that Ilk, and head of all the Chisholms, north and south.

“The present indenture bears witness that, on Thursday, the 2nd of January, in the year of grace 1364, there was an agreement made at the Church of Auldearn, between noblemen, Sir Robert Chisholme, keeper of the Castle of Urquhart, on the one part, and Hugh Rose, Lord of Kilravock on the other part as follows - that is to say, in the first, the said Hugh Rose shall marry Janet, daughter of the said Robert, for which marriage the said Sir Robert shall give to the said Hugh, and the heirs begotten between Hugh himself and the foresaid Janet, ten merks of land of _____, with all its pertinents within Strathnairn, and in case that the said lands do not amount to ten merks, the said Robert shall give to the said Hugh as much of the land nearest to it as shall amount to the said ten merks and all this shall be done to the sight and satisfaction of worthy men. It is also fully agreed upon between the said parties that from the day of the celebration of the said marriage the said Sir Robert shall keep and entertain his said daughter for three years in meat and drink, but the said Hugh shall find and keep her in all the needful garments and ornaments. It is also agreed that if the said Hugh and Janet shall live beyond a complete year after their marriage, the said Hugh shall brook the said land for his lifetime, but in case the said Hugh shall decease (which God forbid) without heirs of his body begotten between him and the said Janet, and in that case the said lands shall return into the hands of the said Sir Robert and his heirs, after the decease of the said Hugh, and to the part of this indenture remaining with the said Hugh the seal of the said Sir Robert is attached along with the seals of the reverend Lords, by the grace of God Bishops of Moray and Ross, and the high and noble man William Earl of Ross and Lord of Skye; and to the part of this indenture remaining in the possession of the said Sir Robert the seal of the said Hugh Rose is attached, along with the seals of the same Reverend Lords, the Bishops of Moray and Ross, and also of the said William, Earl of Ross, and Lord of Skye. Given and done on the day and year and in the place foresaid.”

In this indenture, a peculiar custom of the time is found recorded. Sir Robert Chisholme, the lady’s father, agrees to keep and entertain his daughter from the date of her marriage “for three years in meat and drink,” while her husband is only to “find and keep her in all needful garments and ornaments” during the same period.

Sir Robert was succeeded by his eldest son by his wife, Anne, daughter of Sir Robert Lauder of Quarrelwood, Sir Robert de Chisholme.
