... The Queen later, in 1537, obtained a dissolution of her marriage with him also, on the ground that he was within the fourth and fourth degrees of consanguinity to the Earl of Angus, her second husband, and wished to marry again, but her son James V. prevented this scandal ... "

  Marriage Notes:

"His (Henry Stewart's) first proved marriage, however, was to the Queen-Dowager. On her death he married the mother of his four children, Janet Stewart, who, as his wife, received with him, June 1545, the third part of the lands of Nether Gorthie. She was daughter of John, second Earl of Atholl, and widow, first of Alexander, Master of Sutherland, and secondly, of Sir Hugh Kennedy of Girvanmains. She survived him, liferenting the lordship of Methven, and married, fourthly (contract 9 April 1557), Patrick, Lord Ruthven. This is her last proved marriage, but it is alleged that she was married, fifthly, to James Gray, son of Gilbert Gray of Foulis."

from Scots Peerage (vol 6)


"The Mistress of Sutherland survived the Master, and married, secondly. Sir Hew Kennedy of Girvanmains before May 1532 1; thirdly, before November 1544, Henry, Lord Methven ..."

"Note 1 Sutherland Book, i. 99 n. She must have been divorced from Kennedy who was still alive in 1565 (cf. Reg. Mag. Sig.), some time after June 1542 (cf. Acts and Decreets, i. 27), and thereafter lived with Lord Methven ; their children were legitimated in 1551."
