General Notes:
"There is some disagreement with regard to her pedigree.
The Tilphoudie MS. and the Harperfeld MS. make her the daughter of James, eldest son of the first baronet. On the other hand, Baird, in his account of the Duffs, Theodore Gordon in his (MS.) history of the Gordons, and the 'chimney' pedigree of the Lesmoir Gordons, make her the daughter of Sir James Gordon, Knight, and Helen Urquhart.
The latter view is borne out by the Aberdeen Register of Sasines (vol. xiv., folio 297) : 1650, June 8 - Sasine proceeding upon charter to Ann Gordon, eldest daughter of Sir James Gordon of Newton Garie, Knight Baronet, and to George Gordon of Tillichowdie, his heirs and assignees whatsoever, heritably under reversion, as specified in the contract of marriage between the saids George and Ann Gordons, of the town and dominical lands of Newton Garie, at present occupied by Mr. James Gordon and his sub-tenants, and an annual rent of £40, furth of the town and lands of Verstoun [Westroun ?] in the parish of Drumblade ; at Balmad, May 3, 1650: sasine given June 7, 1650. The witnesses include Alexander, lawful son of Sir William Gordon of Lesmoir. Robert Gordon in Mill of Auchindore is baillie. The entry (folio 299) immediately following and of same date, is sasine on liferent charter granted by George Gordon of Tillichowdie to the said Anne Gordon, of the town and lands of Tillichowdie and croft thereof called Tillibrein lying in the lordship and parish of Aboyne, the town and lands of Auchmenzie, Tirracroft and Calsayend in the parish of Clatt; at Balmad, May 23, 1650: sasine June 8, 1650."
