James married Elizabeth HAY, daughter of Sir John HAY of Snaid, 2nd Lord Yester, Sheriff of Peebles and Elizabeth CRICHTON 'of Sanquhar', in 1511.1 2 (Elizabeth HAY was born about 1490 and died by 1526 2.)


  Marriage Notes:

"Elizabeth (?) (Hay), married to James Tweedie of Drummelzier, and had issue."

from Scots Peerage (vol 8)

Note:

The question mark after Elizabeth's name is there because the author adds another Elizabeth, who married William Abernethy and became Lady Saltoun. This latter Elizabeth is now considered to be the daughter of William Hay, 4th Earl of Erroll.
