- Marriage (1): DRUMMOND, Malcolm, Sir
- Marriage (2): STEWART, Alexander (Self-Styled) 12th Earl of Mar & Garioch
- Died: About 1408 2
General Notes:
"Earl William (Douglas, Isabel's father) died in 1384, and his widow, the Countess Margaret, subsequently married Sir John Swinton of that ilk, but bore him no children. By her first husband, Earl William, she had two James Earl of Douglas and of Mar,
and Isabel. Earl James fell in the chivalrous battle of Otterburn in 1388, leaving no legitimate issue; and his sister Isabel succeeded him in the unentailed lands of the house of Douglas, and in the Earldoms of Mar and of Garioch, her mother's heritage. She bore accordingly the title of Countess of Mar, or Countess of Mar and of Garioch, the latter title being constantly
given to her as well as the former."
