  Marriage Notes:

"1555 December 17. - James Gordon, 'of Coldstone,' witnessed a precept by George, Earl of Huntly, for infefting Thomas Gordon of Kennerty as heir to his father. This Thomas was apparently son to Alexander and grandson to an elder Thomas of Kennerty. His first wife was a Katherine Forbes, his second Katherine Gordon. daughter of James Gordon of Lesmoir. The elder Thomas may possibly be the same person as Thomas Gordon of Kenchice (? Kenertie) or Braickley, the third son of Thomas of Daugh of Ruthven by his 2nd wife, and brother of George Gordon of Cushney (Records of Aboyne, pp. 126, 127, and Balbithan MS., p. 66).'
