From http://mackenzie-clan.net/content/history.html

"John-Ord died in 1902 at the age of 91 years and his grave can be seen in the Dolphinton cemetry.
His son Kenneth Mackenzie succeeded and married May Eudora Horsbrugh (Gran) in 1910.
Unfortunately Kenneth was killed in August 1918 near the town of Arras.
In memory of Kenneth a monument was built by the Estate staff on top of Kippet Hill."
