GORDON, George 3rd of Rothney, Merchant in Aberdeen ²

  General Notes:

ROTHNEY

"Two distinct branches of the Gordons held Rothney. John Gordon of Buckie's son, Alexander, got Rothney, and had a son, John. There was a George Gordon of Rothney in 1604. Then George Gordon of Sheelagreen bought Rothney and gave it to his second son, William, who had a son, George. The latter had a son, William, Writer to the Signet, who died at Rothney in 1824, apparently without issue."

George married Sarah ELPHINSTONE in 1762.¹ (Sarah ELPHINSTONE was born about 1735 and died on 5 December 1775 in Aberdeen, Scotland ¹.)
