VALLERY, Patrick 2
Patrick married.1 Marriage Notes: "Alexander Gordon married (1) Margaret Gordon (Balbithan MS., I5, 33), eldest daughter of George Gordon of Cairnburrow. She had first married Michael Abernethy, son of Lord Saltoun, by whom she had a daughter, who married her third husband's younger brother, John Gordon of Leichestoun. Her second husband was Adam Gordon of Ferrar, who got Birkenburn in 1547, and who was killed at Pinkie in 1547. The 1600 Gordon MS. calls her Isobel, and the Reg. Episc. Moraviensis (p. 395) makes her Christina." Patrick next married Bernard DEVLIN.1 (Bernard DEVLIN was born about 1805 and died before 18 Nov 1868 3.) Marriage Notes: "Birkenburn married (2) Beatrix, daughter of James Gordon, III. of Abergeldie, who was also killed at Pinkie. She had the liferent of the lands of Knock in Glenmuick in 1556, when she seems to have become the wife of Birkenburn; and was apparently alive in 1588 (House of Gordon, i. (78); Records of Aboyne, pp. 80, 222). The 1600 Gordon MS. calls her Catherine and the Reg. Episc. Moraviensis (p. 396) makes her Janet, and relict in 1570, but this is probably an error, arising from the prior occurrence of this name in the same deed." |
