Justice Charles Henry Stewart of
Ceylon, without issue.
5. Isabella, who resided in Elgin, unmarried.
Thomas was succeeded as representative of the family by his eldest
son
VII. GEORGE ALEXANDER MACKENZIE, who, on the death of his father,
became head of the original Mackenzies of Dundonnel, although
the estates had been sold to another family. He married Louisa,
daughter of Captain Stewart of the Celyon Rifles, without issue.
If his next brother, who went to California, survived George
Alexander, then, on his death, he -
VIII. THOMAS MACKENZIE, would have succeeded as head of his house,
and failing him and his descendants, if any, the representation
of the old Mackenzies of Dundonnel would have fallen to JOHN HOPE
MACKENZIE, third son of Thomas, VI. of Dundonnel and last proprietor
of the family estates. He married Louisa, daughter of Captain
Stewart of the Ceylon Rifles, widow of his deceased brother, George
Alexander, without issue, and died in London in 1892.
The only members of this family whose descendants can ever now by
any possibility succeed to the Chiefship should it pass from the
Mackenzies of Allangrange are (1) Alexander, second son of Kenneth
Mor, first of Dundonnel, but of him there is no trace for more
than two hundred years, and never likely to be.
