Thomas Gordon of Kennertie (pp. 22-25) may have been identical with Thomas, the third son of 'Tom of Riven' (by his second wife, a daughter of Sir Walter Innes), styled 'in Glenmuick.' This Thomas is said to have married a daughter of Duncan Grant, by whom he had Alexander of 'Kennathie' (? Kennertie, pp. 25, 27), and James Gordon in Knock. Alexander of 'Kennathie' had sons - Thomas of 'Kennathie,' dwelling in Glenmuick, John, and Alexander of Toldow (MS. Pedigree, circa 1580)."
