User ID: Y509.
William married Marion HOME, daughter of Patrick HOME of Polwarth and Margaret SINCLAIR co-heiress of Polwart and Kimmerghame.1 (Marion HOME was born about 1471.)
Marriage Notes:
"This Sir William Baillie married Marion Hume, daughter of Sir Patrick Hume of Polwarth, and obtained a Crown Charter of Resignation, in favour of himself and his wife in conjunct fee, of the lands and barony of Lamington, on 2d January 1493. Sir William Baillie led an apprising against Helen Shaw, relict of Sir Patrick Hume of Polwarth, and George Hume, first of the line of Hume of Arngaty, his son, whereby for the sum of 850 merks he comprises the ten-pound land of Redvach and Nichoquanny. A charter of Apprising followed upon this Decree on 12th February 1505. Patrick Hepburn, Earl of Bothwell, obtained a charter of Apprising of the lands of Hoprig, pertaining to this Sir William Baillie, on 2d October 1507."
from Lives of the Baillies
Note:
Scots Peerage, volume 6, states that this Marion Hume was the daughter of Patrick Hume's second wife, Ellen Shaw. Since that volume also puts the marriage of Patrick and Ellen before 24 March 1490, citing " 9 Acta Dom. Conc., 193.":
"He married, first, as above stated, Margaret Sinclair; and secondly, previous to 24 March 1490, 9 Ellen, daughter of Sir James Shaw of Sauchie"
it's difficult to see how Sir William Baillie could have a Crown Charter of Resignation for himself and his wife on 2 January 1493, if that were true. 1
