Robert married Elizabeth TURING.1 (Elizabeth TURING was born about 1555.)
Marriage Notes:
"Robert (Lumsden, pater) married Elizabeth, daughter of Alexander Keith of Pettie, brother of the first Earl Marischal. He had a son Robert, 'appearand of Clova,' who married Elizabeth Turing, as a paper in the Cushnie chest testifies [....]
It appears from a sasine, dated 27th December, 1581, that Robert (pater) was twice married, his second wife being Joneta Menzies. By her he had a son, Robert, called in the sasine 'infantulo.' This child must have died soon afterwards, for in 1584 there is another sasine on the same property in which he is not mentioned. It seems almost certain, therefore, that his second son Robert was so called because the first son Robert was dead, and this belief is strengthened by the fact that the property described in the sasine (in the Gallowgate in Aberdeen) is said to be bounded on the south by one occupied by Elizabeth Turing, the first son's widow"
