Alexander married Helen GRAEME, daughter of Gilbert GRAEME of Morphie and Unknown.1 (Helen GRAEME was born about 1378.)
Marriage Notes:
"Alexander Berclay, son of David de Berclay of the Mearns, married Helen Graeme, daughter of Gilbert Graeme, the first of the Graemes of Morphie, which estate was granted to him by King Robert III in 1398. Playfair states that Alexander Berclay became possessed of the family estates in 1407, but, as we have seen by the Keith story, his father was still alive in the year of the battle of the Harlaw (1411), so that Alexander's succession must be placed at a later date....
....Alexander was the father of three sons, David, his heir (Mathers IV); Patrick; and John "
