Jean married James MILN Merchant in Norway, son of George MILN Supervisor of Excise and Margaret DUFF.¹ (James MILN Merchant in Norway was baptised on 10 April 1732 in Banff parish, Banffshire, Scotland ².)

  Marriage Notes:

"His (James Duff of Corsendae's) daughter Margaret .... married : first, to Mr. George Milne, by whom she had one son, James Milne, a merchant in Norway, who married his cousin, a daughter of Gordon of Farskane, and had issue, Margaret Milne, who in right of her grandmother Helen, succeeded to the estate of Eden..." (page 332)

"It was this James Milne who married the Jean Gordon of Farskane, and whose daughter subsequently became heiress of Eden, and mother to James Cuninghame Grant Duff. It is thus that the Grant Duff family appeared in the entail of Corsindae, broken in 1883." (page 334)

"The eldest daughter, Jean, was married to James Miln, then a merchant in Banff. They afterwards went over to Norway where she died, and James Miln still resides there. (page 493)
