from NRS




"He (Sir Henry Douglas) married, before 19 May 1384, Margery, widow of [Roger] Magven of that Ilk, and of Sir Alexander Lindsay of Glenesk, and daughter of Sir John Stewart of Ralstoun, half-brother to King Robert II. They had a plenary indulgence 4 April 1385. The descent of the family at this point is doubtful, and has been variously stated; but it seems most probable that Sir Henry and Margery Stewart had two sons : 1. Sir William, who succeeded. 2. Sir Henry, who succeeded his brother (see Note below)."

from Scots Peerage (vol 6)

Note:

Despite the latter part of the above statement, the ensuing text shows the Sir Henry Douglas who succeeded Sir William was Sir William's son, not his brother.

Sir William also had two younger brothers, James and Alexander. James and his wife were attainted for their part in the Douglas rising. The text says only that Alexander was "mentioned in 1488."

The order of succession was Henry, William, Henry, Robert.
