51 "History of the County of Ayr" by James Paterson, vol 1 in is written:

5th Generation: Andrew CAMPBELL of Skerrington. Appears in a charter granted him in 1490 by Hodgison of Barshare, of the lands of Craigens. He is said to have been married to a daughter of the family of Kilmarnock. 
Campbell, Andrew of Skerrington (I1683)
 
52 "History of the County of Ayr" by James Paterson, vol 1 in is written:

6th Generation. Alexander CAMPBELL of Skerrington. He had a charter of the estate granted to him in 1509. In 1512 he was granted remission , along with William CRAUFURD of Lefnoreis, for being involved with the murder of the Laird of Corsintoune, at the kirk of Cumnock. His wife was a sister of John CAMPBELL of Cesnock, and daughter of the first Baron of Cesnock, of the Loudoun family, by Lady Janet Montgomery, his wife, who was the daughter of Hugh Montgomery, first Earl of Eglinton. 
Campbell, Alexander of Skerrington & Horsecleugh (I1684)
 
53 "History of the County of Ayr" by James Paterson, vol 1 in is written:

8th Generation: Charles CAMPBELL of Skerrington was concerned in 1550 in the breaking of Hamilton Castle in order to release the former cannon of Glenluce who had been charged with heresy. He also appears to have taken an active part in the Reformation. Paterson draws attention to errors in both Nisbet and Burke saying they are in error in reference to the Laird of Skerrington. Nisbet has him assume the designation of Horsecleuche and died about 1590 or 1600, while Burke conjectures that he died before 1630. I will quote Paterson here: "Now as we see that he succeeded before 1550, and as he was then at least twenty, though more likely of maturer age, his death in 1630 would carry him to an unusually advanced period of life. We know that there was a Charles CAMPBELL of Skerrington in 1603; so that he could not in 1600, as Nisbet states, have been succeeded by his son George. The probability is that it was not himself who succeeded, as Nisbet sasy, 'about the year 1560-1570,' but another." 
Campbell, Charles of Bangour (I1686)
 
54 "History of the County of Ayr" by James Paterson, vol 1 in is written:

Charles CAMPBELL of Skerrington. He is believed to have changed his designation to Horsecleuche, a property held by a distinct family, but possibly connected. In 1600 he is pursuing an Adam SCHAW of Glenmure for wounding him in the arm. In 1603 BOTH Charles of Skerrington and Charles of Horsecleluch sat on the assize in a trial of John JOHNSTON of Lochhouse. It is believed that shortly after this the two properties were merged. As in 1604 Charles Campbell of Horsecleuche and Hew Campbell his brother are mentioned in the will of George LOCKHART of Bar. In 1609 Charles Campbell of Horsecluech is one of the pursurers of Thomas JARDANE of Birnok for the slaughter of another Campbell. In Dec 1622 he gives his own testament in the Commissary book of Glasgow. Wherein he gives his spouse as Christiane CAMPBELL as executrix. He gives John CAMPBELL, son of Willliam CAMPBELL in Over Glasnock, the lairdship of Glenmur. Witnesses are Johne CAMPBELL of Schankistown, Charles CAMPBELL of Glasnock, Robert FARQR. of Gilmilnscroft. Hew CAMPBELL, brother to umquhile George (Charles) CAMPBELL of Horscleuch as cautioner. Christiane CAMPBELL is believed by Nisbet to be the daughter of Campbell of Shankston, but although probable, some doubt remains.

Children were: George (above who inherited)
William, whose grandson acquired Little Cesnock. He died 18 Dec 1623, leaving a wife Margaret CAMPBELL.
In his will he is styled as William CAMBPELL, Cumnock.

Corswall was owned by Alexander Campbell, a son of Sir Duncan Campbell of Loudoun, whose elder brother Andrew was Sheriff of Ayr.

96 25 March 1306 - Robert the Bruce, Earl of Carrick, crowned King of Scots at Scone, just six weeks after he had murdered rival, John 'the Red' Comyn, before the altar of the Greyfriar's Abbey in Dumfries. Bruce became a fugitive hiding out in the western islands of Scotland and perhaps even in Ireland. His brothers Thomas, Alexander, and Neil as well as friend Simon Fraser and brother-in-law Christopher Seton were captured and brutally executed. His sister Mary, the wife of Sir Neil Campbell, and the Countess of Buchan, who had placed the Crown on his head, were suspended in cages from the walls of Roxburgh and Berwick castles respectively and exposed to the elements. Bruce's wife, Elizabeth, and his daughter, Margery, were also captured but treated better and held in England for many years. Bruce's fortunes improved the following year, 1307, with the death of his implacable foe, Edward I, and a well-planned military revival.


From Wikipedia ...

Mary Bruce (c. 1282 - 1323) was the younger sister of Robert the Bruce, King of Scots. During the First War of Scottish Independence, she was captured by the English and imprisoned in a cage at Roxburgh Castle for about four years. She was the daughter of Robert de Brus, 6th Lord of Annandale, and Marjorie, Countess of Carrick.

Along with the king's other female relatives (Christina Bruce, Marjorie Bruce, his wife Elizabeth de Burgh and supporter Isabella MacDuff), she was captured and betrayed to the English by the Earl of Ross. By order of King Edward I of England, she was then held prisoner in an iron or wooden cage exposed to the public view in Roxburgh Castle. Isabella MacDuff was imprisoned in a similar cage at Berwick Castle. They were both transferred to better conditions in 1310. This was not necessarily a humane move, it has been suggested that by this stage Bruce was gaining strength, the women were potentially valuable hostages, and the English did not want them dying of exposure.

She was eventually released in exchange for English noblemen captured at the Battle of Bannockburn.

She married, firstly, Sir Neil Campbell, one of her brother's loyal supporters, by whom she had John Campbell, Earl of Atholl. She married, secondly, Alexander Fraser of Touchfraser and Cowie.
