James married Magdalen GORDON, daughter of Patrick GORDON of Auchmenzie and Tilphoudie and Margaret ERSKINE, about 6 December 1606(sasine).1 (Magdalen GORDON was born about 1588.)
Marriage Notes:
"We find that towards the end of 1606 a James Gordoun, apparent of Tilliangus, and Magdalen G., sister to the gudeman of Tillichowdie, got sasine from William Gordon of Tillyangus of the shadow half of Tillyangus, date 8 [23] (sic) Decr. 1606.
In 'Records of Aboyne,' p. 215, it is mentioned that Patrick Gordoun of Auchmenzie and Tilphoudie had by his second wife, Margaret, daughter of John Erskine of Balhagartie, 3 sons, Robert, Thomas, and Patrick, and 3 daughters, Magdalen, Jean, and Beatrice, one of whom married John Innes of Coxtoun, another was the wife of Leslie of Buchanstoun, on the authority of MS. pedigrees. It is probable, I think, that Magdalen, the other daughter, married James Gordoun, apparent of Tillyangus - Auchmenzie is some 3 or 4 miles from Tillyangus - although the brief note from Sasine Register does not add the words 'his spouse' after her name. She was half sister of John Gordoun of Tillachowdie (or Tilphoudie), which is not far from Aboyne Castle."
