  Marriage Notes:

"He (Thomas Allardice) married (by 1649) Agnes, daughter of Patrick Leighton of Duninald. Agnes had first married (circa 1637) John Erskine of Dun, brother of David, Laird of Dun. The first husband died in the 1640s."

from Barons of Allardice




"Some have supposed Ann (Beaton) to be the widow of Sir John Erskine, eldest son of Alexander's first marriage, who predeceased his father; but that is absurd. The fact that Ann was not Sir John's wife rests under the aegis of the Great Seal; for the confirmation of a charter by Alexander, dated 1643, speaks of 'Agnes Lichtoun, widow of the said Sir John.'1(1 Reg. Mag. Sig.)"
