HAMILTON, Margaret 1
User ID: Y453. Margaret married Andrew STEWART Lord Avondale, then Lord Stewart of Ochiltree, son of Andrew STEWART Lord Avondale (2nd creation) and Margaret KENNEDY, before 22 August 1515.1 (Andrew STEWART Lord Avondale, then Lord Stewart of Ochiltree was born about 1501 and died in 1548 2.) Marriage Notes: "Margaret, married, before 22 August 1515, to Andrew Stewart, Lord Avondale, is usually claimed as a daughter of the first Earl of Arran by his alleged first wife, Beatrix Drummond, daughter of John, first Lord Drummond. If so, she was certainly illegitimate, as appears from a Crown charter on 11 May 1496, while Elizabeth Home was still Lord Hamilton's wife, granting the baronies of Hamilton, and specially Machanshire, Curmannock, and Drumsargard, to Beatrix Drummond and the male children born between her and Lord Hamilton, a distinction being made between them and his lawful issue." |
