General Notes:
(3) John, who is named in the entail of 1351, with his brothers. His name occurs among those taken prisoner at the battle of Durham, as the captive of Robert Ogle and Robert Bertram. His later career is not known, but he was dead before 26 May 1366, when his widow had a charter of the half of Strabrock and the fourth part of the earldom of Caithness, to her and her heirs-male and female by John Douglas. He married Mariota Chene, one of the two daughters and co-heiresses of Reginald de Chene, the third of that name. She survived him, and married, secondly, John Keith, son of Sir Edward Keith, Marischal of Scotland, who became, through her, the ancestor of the Keiths of Strabrock, Inverugie, and Ludquhairn."
