User ID: K825. Catherine married Sir Alexander RAMSAY of Dalhousie, son of Alexander RAMSAY of Carnock and Unknown.1 (Sir Alexander RAMSAY of Dalhousie was born about 1345 and died on 14 September 1402 in Battle of Homildon Hill, Northumberland, England.) Marriage Notes: "Alexander (Ramsay). Under the description of 'dominus de Dalhousy,' he granted to the Abbey of Newbattle in 1366-67, when his grandfather (see Note below) was apparently alive, but had denuded himself of the estate, the Blindhalch on the north of the Southesk, for his soul, and that of his wife Catherine, and that of his father Alexander, 'whose body is buried in Newbattle Church.' The grant is witnessed, inter alios, by 'Ricardus Brun, my brother.' He took part in that invasion of England which ended in the battle of Otterburn 1388; and was slain at Homildon Hill, 14 September 1402, when he had attained the rank of knighthood. He was apparently succeeded by Robert de Ramsay, Lord of Dalhousie, so designed as a witness to charters by the Earl of Douglas in 1414, 1416, and 1417." |
