The Johnstone-Douglasses of Lockerbie were descended from Sir William Douglas of Kelhead who married the daughter of the last Johnstone laird of Lockerbie and whose son Charles became 6th Marquess of Queensberry. In the arms a small difference has been made in the 1st and 4th quarters (Douglas, Marquess of Queensberry) where the Royal tressure has been replaced by a silver orle; the 2nd quarter is for Johnstone and the 3rd for Mar, this last also appears in the arms of the Marquess of Queensberry, whose motto is also used. | The Johnstone-Douglasses of Lockerbie were descended from Sir William Douglas of Kelhead who married the daughter of the last Johnstone laird of Lockerbie and whose son Charles became 6th Marquess of Queensberry.
