General Notes:
See the note above in this man's father's file. The following citations listed by Bulloch are likely to refer to the son rather than the father, and possibly some others included in his father's file before 1638:
' - On April 24, 1638, Alexander Gordon in Oxhill received from the Marquis of Huntly a charter of wadset on Oxhill (Gordon Castle Inventory). He was a strong anti-Covenanter, and raided the house of Alexander Strachan of Glenkindie at Auchnagat in 1644 (Acts of Parliament, Scottish Notes and Queries, xi., 152).
- On January 2, 1647, Alexander in Oxhill appeared before the Fordyce Presbytery and confessed in "humble maner" his "grieff and sorrow for going in the wicked rebellion" (Cramond's Church of Rathven).
- He and George Gordon of Leitcheston were charged before the Committee of Estates in 1649.
- On May 29, 1651, there was a bond for £17 10s. by Alexander Gordon of Oxhill to John Ogilbie, merchant at Keith, dated Keith, November 10, 1650 (Elgin Commissary Record).' 1
