The date of Mr. George Heriot’s death is not known. He was succeeded by his daughter, Jean Heriot, wife of Mr. John Craig, advocate, on 12 March 1678, who was left a widow in May 1681. Under the entail of 1665 Craig should have assumed the name Heriot, to which he must have raised objections; so under the marriage contract that objection was waived on condition that the heir of the marriage conformed. Thus, Craig’s eldest son Robert took the surname on inheriting the estate of Ramornie from his mother in 1694 when he is mentioned in a sasine.[1]
