Marjorie married Alexander INNES of Cotts, 'Craig in Peril', later of Leuchars, son of John INNES of Blackhills and Jeronissa GORDON, before 1587.¹ (Alexander INNES of Cotts, 'Craig in Peril', later of Leuchars was born about 1557 and died in 1634 ².)

  Marriage Notes:

"The fourth laird (of Gight) had four sons and (possibly) seven daughters (including):

Daughter married, according to the Familie of Innes (p. 201), John Innes of Blackhills, and was the mother of 'Crag-in-peril' ('sister-son to the laird of Gight'), who married his cousin Marjorie Gordon, daughter of the fifth laird of Gight." (page 38)

"Marjorie married, before 1587, her cousin-german, Alexander Innes of Cotts, who was known as 'Crag-in-Peril'. His mother was a daughter of the fourth laird of Gight ...... Marjorie had a strain of the family blood, for there was 'sum intrigue' between her and Innes, the marriage coming off 'abruptly,' though she was really 'contracted with the Laird of Tolly Barclay' (Familie of Innes, p. 201)."
