"Barbara (Gordon), daughter of the first laird. The term 'procreatis' in the extract from the Great Seal, November 1, 1490, already quoted, proves that George, II. of Gight, who was born about 1502 was younger than his sisters. Married first William Hay of Lormy (Fraser's Chiefs of Grant, i., 520). In 1553 there was precept of sasine by George Earl of Erroll in favour of Barbara Hay as heir to William Hay of Lormy her father ('consanguineus noster') in the half of the town of Nether Leask (Antiq.
