Marriage Notes for Isabella Gilstrap and John MacRae-Gilstrap:
The MacRae Gilstraps

On 4-3-1889, at St Peter's, Eaton Square, London, John MacRae of the Black Watch, second son of Duncan MacRae Esq. of Kames Castle, Bute, was married to Isabella Mary Gilstrap, second daughter of the late George Gilstrap. On the death of his Uncle, by marriage, Sir William Gilstrap, in 1896, John MacRae took the additional name of Gilstrap and became Head of the firm Gilstrap and Earp. As their two children were born before their father took the additional name of Gilstrap, their surname was MacRae only.

The 1897 Newark Valuation List shows that John MacRae-Gilstrap owned and occupied a house, garden and billiard room at 65 Northgate. In March 1899 John MacRae-Gilstrap became a magistrate, and in March 1901 he was appointed one of H.M. Corps of Gentlemen at Arms; Bodyguard, the Royal Company of Archers.

In Kelly 1936, Lt. Col. John MaRrae-Gilstrap appears as a County Magistrate. In mid January 1937 he died. He was buried on the 19th at Olachan Duich, the coffin being wrapped in the Macrae tartan. On 17-12-1949 his widow Isabella Mary died, in her 89th year. She was a Dame of Grace of the Order of St John of Jerusalem. On 25-10-1950 Fornham Park was auctioned by direction of his son, Capt.
