Sir Robert, his successor.
1. Marjory, married to James Hamilton of Cambuskeith.
2. Margaret, in 1455, married to William, second son (see Note below) of William, second Lord Somerville, and founder of the family of Plain."
from Heraldry of the Hamiltons
Note:
According to The Scots Peerage, vol. 8, The second son of William, 2nd Lord Somerville was named Thomas and he his wife was Elizabeth de Airth. The had a son, William, so it may be he who was married to Margaret Hamilton. The chronology would support that. William died without issue before 1508 and his brother David succeeded and was 'of Plane'. 2
