Airlie Castle (5)
Sir Walter Ogilvy of Lintrathen (died 1440), was Lord High Treasurer of Scotland.  Having obtained Auchterhouse by marriage, in 1426 he founded and endowed two chaplainries in the church of Auchterhouse for the safety of the souls of the king and queen, and of those who fell at the battle of Harlaw (amongst whom was his elder brother Alexander).  In 1432 he received a license from James I to 'erect his tower of Eroly in the form of a castle.'  He was succeeded by his son Sir John Ogilvy of Lintrathen, whose son Sir James, was created 1st Lord Ogilvy in 1491.
