- Born: About 1585
- Marriage (1): Unknown
Another name for Patrick was ANDERSON, Patrick of Knockespack, Mr.2
User ID: J210.
General Notes:
"...the arms of 'Anderson of Noth,' (are) shown on a stone in the burial ground at Kennethmont, near Huntly. 'Patrick Anderson of Milton of Noth' was the eldest son of Alexander Anderson of Bruntstane above. From a younger son, sprang 'Anderson of Westerton & Ardbrake' who enjoy a significant status to this day.
In the old kirkyard at Botriphnie in Banffshire, an armorial stone can be found (see website for image) for this family who adopted boar's heads in their arms in respect of intermarriage with ladies of the house of Gordon."
from Anderson Association website
"The next extract shows a John Gordon to be laird of Knockespock, and that he had a brother James. There does not appear to be any service of this John as heir. It will be seen that John got his disposition from Mr Patrick Anderson of Knockespock, and the name of the wife of George Gordon 'in Gibistoun,' who acquired Auld Noth, and later 'of Knockespoek,' was Jean Anderson. Possibly Patrick Anderson had acquired a wadset over Knockespock, and John Gordon may have acquired it from him and redeemed it. It runs as follows: -
1663 - December 2. - Registration of sasine, dated 13 October, of John Gordon of Knockespack, on a Disposition to him by Mr Patrick Anderson of Knockespack of the town and lands of Newtoun of Knockespak, Nether Knockespak, Sowiefourt Craig [Qr. Sowie-foot or Sowieford], with mill therein, in the parish of Rhynie. Dated at Knockespak, 13 October. A witness to the sasine is James Gordon, brother of the said John Gordon of Knockespak. [Unfortunately, no description of John Gordon is given here.]"
