Notes

John Pitcairn’s third son Patrick was one of the Grooms of the Bed-chamber in James VI’s reign and on April 28th 1588 at Greenwich, is indorsed “Mr Ferdinando’s warrant for his entertainment as Groom of the Chamber 26th May 1603.  “Patrick Pitcairn the like, 21st Jun 1603 and 12th July 1603.  Miles Rainsford, John Repton, Edward Lascelles, Robert le Gris, and Patrick Pitcairn in one bill.”  What their entertainment was we do not hear.”

On 19th Oct. of the same year at Winchester, warrant for yearly livery to Patrick Pitcairn, Groom of the Privy Chamber.”

From another entry at Wilton 4th Dec of the same year, we find what the livery must have been, as “there is a warrant to Sir George Hume, Master of the Great Wardrope, to deliver to John Auchmuty, Patrick Pitcairn, John Gibbs and John and George Murray (cousins), ordinary Grooms of the Privy Chamber, a damask or satin gown bound with velvet and furred, a velvet coat and dounblet, a marble cloth coat, guarded with velvet, and another of green cloth also bound with  velvet, and to pay for materials for making.”

Patrick Pitcairn’s will was drawn up the 16th of August and is in the Edinburgh Testaments 1620.  He died at Freuchy.
