"She (Elizabeth Dunbar) was alive in 1472, but died some time before 17 February 1485-86, when James Douglas acknowledges himself to be the heir of his mother Elizabeth, Countess of Moray. He also was probably dead before 18 March 1493-94, when Janet Dunbar was served heir to her sister in certain lands in Caithness. The Earl and Countess had issue two children. James, already named, styled son and heir in the agreement with Lord Gordon after his father's death, and Janet, also named in same writ. Of her nothing further is known." (page 310)
