  • Notes 
    • Known as Hugh Montgomery, 1st Earl of Eglintoun.
      Hugh fought on the side of the Prince at Sauchieburn, from whom he had
      a grant for life of Arran, and the custody of Brodick Castle in 1488.
      In 1489 he was made Bailie and Justiciary of Bute. A grant to him in
      1499 of the Baillary of Cunningham, formerly held by his grandfather,
      gave rise to a feud with the Glencairn family, in the course of which
      Eglinton Castle was burnt by the Master of Glencairn. Between the 3rd
      and 20th of January, 1507-8, he was made Earl of Eglintoun. Hugh was
      prominent in public affairs during the monority of King James V., of
      Scotland.
