"It seems probable that Thomas and Edward were the children of a second marriage, and that their mother was the Margaret, spouse of umquhile William Crichton who on 20 July 1410 obtained a charter of Gilberton. From one of these two brothers was descended the family of Brunstane now represented by the Earl of Erne."
