DUNBAR, Elizabeth heiress of Hempriggs 2
User ID: E480. Elizabeth married Sir Robert GORDON of Gordonstoun, 3rd Baronet, son of Sir Ludovick GORDON of Gordonstoun, 2nd Baronet and Elizabeth FARQUHAR, in 1691.1 (Sir Robert GORDON of Gordonstoun, 3rd Baronet was baptised on 9 April 1647 in Drainie parish, Moray, Scotland,4 5 died in 1704 and was buried on 28 September 1704 in Drainie parish, Moray, Scotland 6.) Marriage Notes: "James (Sutherland) .... married, after 1704, Elizabeth, only surviving child and heiress of Sir William Dunbar, Bart., of Hempriggs, and relict of Sir Robert Gordon, third baronet of Gordonston" Elizabeth next married James SUTHERLAND THEN DUNBAR Baronet of Hempriggs, son of James SUTHERLAND 2nd Lord Duffus and Margaret MACKENZIE, after 28 September 1704.2 3 (James SUTHERLAND THEN DUNBAR Baronet of Hempriggs was born about 1677 and died before 1739 2.) Marriage Notes: "James (Sutherland), who became an advocate 1 February 1704. He is said to have acquired the Duffus estates by bond from his father, and to have obtained the purchase money on loan from Mr. Archibald Dunbar of Thunderton, and it is added that as he could not refund it, he was obliged to part with the estates to his creditor. This view of the matter appears doubtful, from the fact that James and Kenneth, the second and third Lords Duffus were the parties to the transaction, and Mr. Archibald Dunbar on 20 February 1712 obtained two decrees of adjudication against Kenneth Lord Duffus. He married, after 1704, Elizabeth, only surviving child and heiress of Sir William Dunbar, Bart., of Hempriggs, and relict of Sir Robert Gordon, third baronet of Gordonston, and, assuming the surname of Dunbar, was created a Baronet on 10 December 1706. He died before 1739, leaving issue by his wife, who survived him until 11 March 1756, aged seventy-nine, two sons and four daughters" |
