GORDON, Ludovic 2nd of Minmore
(About 1660-1733) |
GORDON, Ludovic 2nd of Minmore 1
Other names for Ludovic were GORDON, Lodvick of Muniemore,1 GORDON, Ludwig of Minimoir 1 and GORDONE, Lodovick of Minimore.1 User ID: G869. General Notes: "There is a difficulty with William's successor, for it is not clear in what relationship the next laird we hear of, Ludovick Gordon, stood to him. He seems to have been the grandson of William I., or perhaps the great grandson, the son of the latter's elder son Alexander, for an Alexander Gordon 'of Minmore' witnessed the baptism of Alexander Catanach, the boatman of Cromdale, on March 3, 1716. (Cromdale Register.) It is most unlikely that he was the son of William, 'younger of Minmore,' who had sasine of Easter Lettoch in 1647, and who discharged the Lettoch wadset in 1683; but a Ludovick Gordon got sasine in Minmore in 1676, so that this particular William seems not to be Ludovick's father." Research Notes: LUDOVIC Ludovic married Helen GRANT, daughter of Robert GRANT in Auchbreck, then of Tombreakachie and Janet STEWART.1 (Helen GRANT was born about 1668.) Marriage Notes: "The name of Ludovick's wife is unknown. She may have been Helen Grant (daughter of Robert Grant of Tombreakachie), who on May 1, 1683, got sasine in liferent on Minmore." |
