from Scots Peerage (vol 4) 1 2

Alexander next married David HORNE between 1557 and 1567.3 (David HORNE was born about 1880 and died after 14 Aug 1928 4.)


  Marriage Notes:

"Though the husband of Janet had, as will be seen, a daughter of Lord Forbes for his second wife, no armorial memento of the last-named lady remains.....

Janet Hamilton was alive, as has been seen, in 1557. Before 1567 she was dead, and her husband had entered into a second marriage with Marjory, daughter of John, 6th Lord Forbes, and widow of Forbes of Brux. Of the second marriage it does not appear that there was any issue; but of Alexander Burnett and Janet Hamilton there is evidence of there having been seven sons and four daughters...."
