"Alexander (Forbes), the Red Laird, 'sore wounded at Pinkie,' married Beatrix, daughter of Alexander Abernethy, Lord Saltoun, by whom he had six sons and four daughters [....]

Anne married Alexander Gordon of Lesmoir, and secondly John Forbes of Brux ; and three others, Janet, Mariota and Margaret."

from House of Forbes (Pitsligo)

Note:

In
House of Gordon Alexander Gordon of Lesmoir's wife is Mariot/Marjorie, not Anne, and no mention is made of an earlier or later marriage on her part. So 'Janet' is at least a possible for the wife of Thomas Stewart. 1 3
