  Marriage Notes:

"Sir Adam (Gordon), according to Ferrerius, married the only daughter of the Laird of Somerville, but this seems to be a perversion of a fact to be stated later. There is better evidence that his wife was Elizabeth Keith, fourth daughter of Sir William Keith, Marischal of Scotland, by his wife, Margaret Fraser, only child and heiress of Sir John Fraser, and granddaughter of Sir Alexander Fraser, who held the territory of Aboyne and other lands in the shires of Aberdeen, Kincardine, and Forfar. The marriage probably took place before or about 1380, as Elizabeth Keith's eldest sister, Muriel, married, in 1379, as his second wife, Robert, Earl of Fife and Menteith.......

... Sir Adam Gordon and Elizabeth Keith had issue a son and daughter :

1. John.

2. Elizabeth, who succeeded her brother"

from Scots Peerage (vol 4) 1

George next married after 14 Sep 1402.1 2


  Marriage Notes:

"Elizabeth Gordon survived her first husband; married, secondly, Sir Nicholas Erskine of Kinnoull, who left her again a widow before December 1406 ..."

from Scots Peerage (vol 4)




"He (Nicholas Erskine) married, secondly, after 1402, Elizabeth Keith, widow of Sir Adam Gordon of that Ilk, who survived him."

from Scots Peerage (vol 5) 1 2

George next married about 2 Nov 1411.1 3


  Marriage Notes:

"Elizabeth Gordon ... married ... thirdly, Thomas Somerville, probably the Thomas Somerville who was Lord of Carnwath. She, under the designation of Elizabeth of Keith, Lady of the barony of Aboyne, with consent of Thomas Somerville, her husband, granted, on 20 October 1431, infeftment of certain lands in the barony of Aboyne to Sir Alexander Forbes. She had thus succeeded to her mother, Margaret Fraser, in some at least of her large estates, including Aboyne and Cluny. She died about 1436, as in 1437 these lands were in possession of her daughter, whose husband lifted the rents."

from Scots Peerage (vol 4)




"He (Thomas Somerville) married again, in terms of a dispensation dated 2 November 1411, Elizabeth Keith, widow, successively, of Sir Adam Gordon of Huntly and Sir Nicholas Erskine of Kinnoull."
