William married Mary KEITH, daughter of Sir Gilbert KEITH 3rd of Inverugie, then of Ludquharn and Janet GRAHAM, about 1477.1 (Mary KEITH was born about 1463.)


  Marriage Notes:

"Almost all secondary sources think that the Mary Keith who married William Sinclair, 2nd Earl of Caithness, was the daughter of Sir William Keith 6.1? of Inverugie, but the indenture [23] between William Sinclair, his son and Sir Gilbert Keith 5.1, and his daughter Mary, seems to contradict that. "

"[23] National Library of Scotland Website, Ch.17098 26 Jul 1477
Indenture between the four persons listed below
William [Sinclair] First Earl of Caithness
??? (son of William, 1st Earl of Caithness)
Sir Gilbert Keith of Inverugie.
Mary Keith (daughter Sir Gilbert Keith). "
