  Marriage Notes:

"Baird had got into the governing swim more or less, doing so perhaps through his marriage in 1550 with Elizabeth Keith, daughter of Gilbert Keith of Troup, who was the son of the Earl Marischal. Twelve years later Elizabeth's cousin, Lady Agnes Keith, married, as noted, the Regent Moray. George Baird had five sons."
