Biography

John (Wallace) Wallace XIII of Craigie is a member of Clan Wallace.
Scottish flag
John (Wallace) Wallace XIII of Craigie was born in Scotland.

John Wallace, 13th of Craigie, 14th Chief of the Clan Wallace, was born circa 1553 in Holmstone, Ayrshire, Scotland. He was the son of Sir John Wallace, 12th of Craigie, and Margaret Cunningham.[1]

John married firstly, Margaret Campbell[2] circa 1573 in Loudoun, Ayrshire, Scotland. They had issue:

  1. John[2]
  2. William[2]
  3. Isabel[2]
  4. Thomas[2]
  5. Catherine[2]
  6. James[2]
  7. Robert[2]
  8. Annabell[citation needed]

John married secondly, contract 31 Oct 1597, Elizabeth Douglas, second daughter of David, seventh Earl of Angus.[2][3][4] They had no issue.[2]

John was appointed by Parliament, in 1574, along with Matthew Campbell of Loudoun and George Craufurd of Lefnoreis, to regulate the weapon-shawing in Kyle.[5]

John died in 1606 in Craigie, Ayrshire, Scotland[citation needed]

Research Notes

It is stated: "He was the brother of William Wallace and Margaret Wallace; the half brother of Isobel Kennedy, Lady Grymett; Gilbert Kennedy, 4th Earl of Cassilis; Catherine Kennedy; Janet Kennedy, Countess of Orkney and Sir Thomas Kennedy, 1st of Culzean" and although there certainly was a brother William per chance, there seems to be no source for this list of siblings and half-siblings.

The daughter Margaret here shows her mother was "Agnes Stewart" - neither of John's wives noted here was an Agnes Stewart ?

John Wallace 13th of Craigie was my 12th Great Grandfather and the information listed above is incorrect - according to The Peerage.com and The Book of Wallace (pg 45) he married Lady Margaret Cunningham, I'm sure they wouldn't put incorrect information in their books, His will is in The Book of Wallace page's 45-46, it's dated 10 Aug 1570, it's witnessed by Wm Hamilton, younger of Sanquhar and John Wallace, younger of Craigie. The children listed below are in his will.

This was in ThePeerage.com John Wallace, 13th of Craigie was the son of William Wallace, 12th of Craigie and Margery Sophia Kennedy. He married Lady Margaret Cuninghame, daughter of Alexander Cuninghame, 5th Earl of Glencairn and Lady Janet Hamilton, on 8 August 1552 at Craigie, Ayrshire, Scotland. He died in August 1570.

I would like to discuss this. I show John Wallace, 14th of Craigie, as born 1553, Holmestone, Ayrshire, Scotland and died after 1606, Craigie, Ayrshire, Scotland. He was son of John Wallace, 13th of Craigie, and Lady Margaret Cunningham, 1533-1575.

The will of John Wallace, 1530-1570, 13th of Craigie was dated 10 Aug 1570. John Wallace, "His will signed and dated August 10, 1570 is witnessed by William Hamilton, younger of Anquhar, and John Wallace, younger of Craigie." Book of Wallace, Vol 1, Page 46

John Wallace, eldest son of John Wallace and Lady Margaret Cunnyingham, succeeded his father in 1570. In 1572, he was chosen oversman of the burgh of Prestwick. Book of Wallace, Vol 1, Pg 46.

John Wallace of Craigie married first, Margaret, dau of Sir Matthew Campbell of Loudoun, with issue of 5 sons and 2 daughters. Date not provided. Children Listed. Book of Wallace, Vol 1, Page 56.

Marriage Abt 1598 was John Wallace the 14th's, 2d marriage and Elizabeth Douglas' 3d Marriage. There was no issue in marriage with Baron of Craigie. Book of Wallace, Vol 1, Page 56.

I could use collaborators to help find and verify facts.

I show John Wallace, 14th of Craigie, as my 11th GGF.

All my facts/assertions are subject to review and correction as needed.
