GORDON, Marjory ¹

Marjory married Thomas LUMSDEN, son of Robert LUMSDEN of Cushnie and Isobel FORBES.¹ (Thomas LUMSDEN was born about 1489 and died 9 September 1513(dvp) in Battle of Flodden Field, Northumberland, England ¹.)

  Marriage Notes:

"We must now return to Thomas, the eldest son, who was killed at Flodden. He married Marjory Gordon, and, says the Cushnie MS., had, 'after his death' (surely a most unexampled phenomenon ; but the writer's meaning is clear, though language fails him) 'seven sons and five daughters. [....] .... it is certainly true that Thomas Lumsden had a large family. He must have married very young, and nine of his children at any rate can be accounted for - James, William (?), John, Robert, and five daughhters."
