DE GORDUN, Thomas Rector of Linton, and Canon of Moray, Mr 1
User ID: M389.
General Notes:
"Mr. Thomas, named along with his brother John in King Edward's letter to the Pope. It was probably he who obtained the rectory of Linton in St. Andrews, diocese about 1320, and was then under twenty years of age. In 1323, and again in 1330, he was required to pay 100 merks to the Papal Camera for a dispensation to retain his benefice. He was also provided in 1323 to a canonry of Moray diocese, and had the office of notary conferred on him in 1351."
