Dochfour has been the ancestral home of the Baillie family since the middle of the 5th centurywhen they were granted the lands following their service in the Battle of Brechin. The family's lineage, however, is much older, tracing back to the de Baliols, who arrived in Britain with William the Conqueror in 1066. A significant branch of the de Baliol family became involved in Scottish affairs, with John de Baliol even briefly serving as King of Scotland. To distance themselves from the Scottish throne when Robert the Bruce became king, some de Baliols adopted the surname Baillie.
