Donald was succeeded by his eldest surviving son;

VI。  COLIN  MACKENZIE;  sixth of Kilcoy; who was infeft in  the lands of Kilcoy on the 16th of  December; 1742。  In 1747  (marriage contract 28th March) he  married Martha; eldest daughter of  Charles Fraser of Inverallochy; by  Anne; daughter of Udney of Udney。

Her eldest brother; Charles; on  whom the Lovat Estates were entailed; fell in command of the  Clan Fraser at Culloden; and her second brother; William; who had  also succeeded to the property of  Udney; dying in 1792; the  representation of the family of Inverallochy and Castle Fraser  devolved upon Martha and her  sister Eliza Fraser (who died  without issue in 1814)。  Through  this marriage; the family of Kilcoy  claim to be heirs to the old  Earldom of Buchan; conferred in  1469 upon James Stuart; half…brother of James II。; by the second  marriage of his mother; Queen  Jane; to Sir James Stewart; the  Black Knight of Lorn。  In 1617 a  Crown charter of Novodamus is  granted to the then Countess Mary  of Buchan; who married James  Erskine (eldest son of John Earl of  Mar) with the precedence of the  former charter to herself and her  husband in life rent and the heirs  male of their marriage; whom  failing to his nearest heirs male  whatsoever。  In 1625 the Earl and  Countess had another charter of the  Earldom with the same limitation。   In 1633 the charter of 1625; and a  decree of 1628 giving the Earldom of Buchan precedence over those of  Eglintoun; Montrose; Cassilis; Caithness; and Glencairn; were  ratified by Act of Parliament。

These charters make the Kilcoy  claim quite hopeless; not because they are not the rightful heirs; but  because the Earldom was given in  1617 by charter to the heirs male of  James Erskine; though he had no  more right to it than he had to the  throne itself; beyond having  married the Countess Mary of  Buchan; now represented by the  Mackenzies of Kilcoy。  Nothing  can annul a charter but another Crown charter; and as a matter of  fact and justice; the Cardross Erskines have no more right to  represent and sit as the Earls of Buchan of 1469 than they have to  be Kings of Great Britain。  By this  lady Kilcoy had issue
