   User ID: N342.

Marjory married Patrick SKENE Burgess of Aberdeen, son of James SKENE in Bandodle, then of Wester Corse and Janet LUMSDEN.¹ (Patrick SKENE Burgess of Aberdeen was born about 1545 and died by 29 July 1601 ¹.)

  Marriage Notes:

"Patrick Skene. On 17th May, 1580, 'Mr. John Skene, Advocatus coram Dominis Concilii, Patricias Skene ejus frater germanus gratis gratia Concilii,' admitted burgesses of Aberdeen.

Nothing is known of his history, except that he was twice married first to Marjorie Hurrie, a daughter, probably of Hurrie of Pitfichie, who possessed Westercorse, under the Skenes as superiors, and whose death is thus recorded - '17th July, 1585, Marjorie Hurre, spouse of Patrick Skene, buried in the kirk'; and, on 10th January, 1586, we have Patrick Skene and Marjorie Forbes mariet."
