Fraser of Lovat History

Robert the Bruce’s chamberlain was Sir Alexander Fraser and it is from his brother, Sir Simon Fraser, that the Frasers of Lovat descend. Sir Simon acquired the Bisset lands around Beauly when he won the hand of its heiress, making these lands the family home.
A 1367 record describes Hugh Fraser as ‘Lord of Lovat’, the first known connection the Frasers had with Lovat land.
