from Scots Peerage (vol 1)




"The Earl's wife was Isabel Stewart, daughter of King Robert II.....She survived the Earl, and married, secondly, before 1390, Sir John Edmonstone, ancestor of the Edmonstones of Duntreath. She died about 1410. By her the Earl had, according to Godscroft, one son, but he died in infancy, and his name has not been recorded."

from Scots Peerage (vol 3)




"This gentleman (John Edmonstone) had the honour of contracting a Royal alliance, for he married the Lady Isabel, daughter of King Robert I .... This lady had married, in 1371, James II. Earl of Douglas and Mar, who was killed at the battle of Otterburn in 1388, by whom she had no children, and secondly, Sir John Edmonstone. By this marriage Sir John had one son, David. The family pedigree makes out William, from whom the Duntreath family are descended, to have been a second son, but this will be shown to be erroneous"
