Marriage Notes:
"Harperfield states as to this laird, 'Infeft in the estate of Craig by Precept from the Superiors, 27 Augt. 1650, he was educated in France, and by the intestine Commotion of the country [Scotland] during the Civil War, he lost irretrievably some part of the family estate. Upon his return to Scotland in 1652 he married 1st Elizabeth, daughter of Sir Gilbert Menzies of Pitfodels': he then gives their issue, and continues, 'he married in 1664 Jean, daughter of William Gordon of Corrachrie' (perhaps of the Tillachowdie family, to whom Correchrie belonged in 1623, see 'Rec. of Aboyne,' p. 275), and gives their issue two sons."
