Adam Craufurd of Dalleagles and Polquhairn

Adam Craufurd

Born possibly 1712
Died possibly 1794
Alias: 
Craufurd of Dalleagles
Craufurd of Polquhairn
Biography: 

The last Craufurd of Dalleagles. At his death he was referred to as Craufurd of Polquhairn.1

Life with Boswell: 

Boswell visited Polquhairn as the first stop on his harvest jaunt of 1762, together with James Chalmers on September 14, 1762.

The age of Craufurd is inferred from (Link), but I don't know for sure if he is in fact the Craufurd of Dalleagles who was (presumably) visited by Boswell.

Note 1: According to The Commissariot Record of Glasgow - Register of Testaments
