  Marriage Notes:

"He (Alexander Fraser) apparently married, first, a lady named Elizabeth Keith, named in a charter by Robert, Duke of Albany (probably about 1410), to him and her of the lands of Kinnell ... "

from Scots Peerage (vol 5)




In the first place, Alexander Fraser, eldest son of the first Hugh Fraser, according to both genealogies, who must have died before 1416 to enable the second Hugh, married to Janet de Fentoun in that year, to be Lord of the Lovat at the time (he is so styled in the contract), was not unmarried, for the Regent, Robert, Duke of Albany, gave a charter of confirmation of Kinnell to Alexander Fraser and his wife, Elizabeth de Keith."
