FRASER, Thomas elder, of Cornton ¹

   User ID: Y646

  General Notes:

"Thomas (Fraser), who, after 1366, had a charter from William de Keith, Marischal of Scotland, of the lands of Kinmundy (since called Nether Kinmundy) in the barony of Alden (now Aden) in the parish of Longside, Aberdeenshire, in excambion for Pittendreich, near Cornton, in Stirlingshire. He died before 1392.

He, or his successor of the same name, appears as Thomas Fraser of Cornton, in association with Sir Alexander Fraser of Philorth, the Sheriff of Aberdeen, John Fraser of Forglen, and others, in 1387-88, in the settlement of a dispute between Adam de Tyninghame, Bishop of Aberdeen, and John, Laird of Forbes."

from Scots Peerage (vol 4)




"In 1366 a Thomas Fraser exchanged his lands of Petyndreich, in Stirlingshire, for those of Kinmundy, in the barony of Alden, in Aberdeenshire, belonging to Sir William de Keith, the Marischal, but died before 1392, for in that year he is mentioned as the late Thomas Fraser in a charter by the Marischal and his wife, Margaret Fraser, dealing with those lands. He was probably the same person as Thomas Fraser of Cornetoun, whose name occurs in various documents during 1387-88, and who was associated with Sir Alexander Fraser of Philorth, the Sheriff of Aberdeen, John Fraser of Forglen, and others, in the settlement of a dispute between Adam de Tynninghame, Bishop of Aberdeen, and John, dominus de Forbes."
