John was born about 1285 younger son to Sir John of Inchmartine and his wife Johanna. [1]

He may as a younger son prepared to enter the church as when he witnessed his eldest brother Sir Heny's charter of a gift to the religious community of Coupar Angus Abbey he was described as my brother, rector of Rothnach (Rossie?) [2] although this may have been a purchased lay title.

About 1314, John of Inchmartine, lord of Inchmartine, for the salvation of his soul, and for the salvation of the souls of Sir John of Inchmartine, his father, and Lady Johanna his mother, and the late Sir Henry of Inchmartine, his brother, and also all his ancestors and successors, granted to the abbot and convent of Coupar Angus Abbey and their men free passage through his lands with their goods, without impediment, and in the lands of his heirs or assignees, by all the roads and paths by which his men, or the men of his heirs or assignees, travelled. [3]
