  Marriage Notes:

"Daughter married William Gordon, III. of Terpersie. Her name is given in neither of the two references in the Balbithan MS., pp. 47-9."

from Leichestoun




"His (ie George Gordon's) eldest Son William Gordon of Terpersie married the blind Lady Litchestons daughter Gordon, whose mother was a daughter of the Earl of Findlaters Ogilvy..."

from Balbithan MS




"William Gordon, who was interred in the church of Tullynessle, married (according to the Balbithan MS., pp. 47,49) his kinswoman, the 'blind Lady Litcheston's daughter (Gordon), whose mother was a daughter of the Earl of Findlater (Ogilvy),' and the relict of the laird of Birkenbog (Abercrombie). In a somewhat obscure birthbrieve, dated February, 1703, relative to the descent of the two sons of Patrick Gordon of Harlaw, son of an Alexander Gordon of Kincraigie, the latter is said to have married Marjorie Gordon, daughter of William Gordon of Terpersie by his 'wife' Margaret Gordon of Auchannachy. If for 'Auchannachy' we read Auchanacie, the reference is clear enough, for the Leichestoun Gordons were connected with Auchynachie."
