SCRIMGEOUR, Margaret 1
User ID: K282. Margaret married Patrick GRAY of Ballegarno, son of Alexander GRAY of Ballegarno and Margaret KINNAIRD, about February 1550(grant).1 (Patrick GRAY of Ballegarno was born about 1520 and died by 14 January 1579(1580) 1.) Marriage Notes: "As the late Constable of Dundee, James Scrymgour, had left no male heir in 1545, Margaret's father, his cousin, being the nearest male relative became Constable of Dundee and thus his interests moved to Dundee and he inherited large landholdings among which included an interest in Baledgarno. The resulting link of this new Constable to Baledgarno may well have led to the marriage of Patrick Gray of Baledgarno to his daughter Margaret Scrymgeour about 1550. In February that year John Scrymgeour Constable of Dundee granted to Patrick and his spouse, Margaret the lands of Kingoodie.[2 NRS GD68/1/35 see [1 Scrymgeor Inventory item 341] and RSS iv.660] The Constable also granted as his 'dochtir's tochir guids' a sum of money and a tak of the half lands of Drymmie. [3 Dundee City Archives; Robt Wedderburn's Protocol Book 1580-1585] Margaret next married Archibald DUNDAS in Fingask about 1581.1 (Archibald DUNDAS in Fingask was born about 1515.) Marriage Notes: "About 1581, Margaret married the elderly Archibald Dundas of Fingask. The Constable of Dundee granted to Margaret together with Archibald Dundas and and James Gray in Longforgan her son a Subscription on 4 Apr 1582 would receive 1100 merks to be paid at the Parish Kirk of Dundee together with a letter of Tak for space of 19 years for redemption the yearly duty for first 3 years of 40 merks and the next 16 years of 23 bolls wheat 23 bolls beir and 10 capons which was the annualrent by umquhile John Scrymgeour Constable of Dundee to umquhile Patrick Gray of Baledgarno under reversion.
