One was Coutts Marjoribanks whose sister Lady Aberdeen built Kelowna’s Guisichan House for him in an effort to keep him out of trouble. It didn’t work all the well as the home was known as a party house. Another might have been James Dun-Waters. He was destined to be just such a son but a “number of tragic deaths in the family precipitated him into the position of financial authority,” according to Dan Bruce, curator of Fintry Estates.
