He was three times married, (i) to Margaret, daughter of Peter Strahan, Edinburgh ; (2) to Elizabeth, daughter of Lord Gray ; (3) to Margaret, daughter of Sir George Foulis of Dunipace, and sister of Sir Archibald Foulis, who assumed the name of Primrose and was executed as a Jacobite at Carlisle at the same time as the laird of Terpersie, Nov. 5, 1746. Peter Gordon died in Sept., 1733, and left his widow as his executrix."

from Abergeldie 1

Margaret next married Harry LUMSDEN of Auchindoir, then 10th of Cushnie, Jacobite 1715, son of John LUMSDEN of Auchindoir and Agnes GORDON, in 1736.2 (Harry LUMSDEN of Auchindoir, then 10th of Cushnie, Jacobite 1715 was born about 1685 in Kildrummy parish, Aberdeenshire, Scotland, died on 7 June 1754 2 and was buried on 10 June 1754 in Kildrummy Churchyard, Aberdeenshire, Scotland 2 5.)


  Marriage Notes:

" .... his (Harry Lumsden's) first wife was dead (she died in 1733), and he had married, in 1736, Margaret Foulis, the widow of Peter Gordon of Abergeldie. As she was the sister of Sir Archibald Foulis of Dunipace, who was executed at Carlisle in 1746, we can hardly be wrong in supposing that she was as ardent a Jacobite as her brother."
