"James (Gordon) of Terpersie is mentioned as early as 1637, when he and his spouse got sasine in Auchlyne. There is no doubt that his wife was Anne, daughter of John Gordon of Craig. James G., younger of Terpersie, and spouse got sasine in Newhigging, &c., 1643; he was (I believe) served heir of Terpersie in 1671 ; got a, reversion from John G. (apparently of Law) in December, 1668; he and his father granted a reversion to Henry G. of Auchlyne, in same month and year; he got or granted a renunciation, 20th June, 1671; he got a. sasine in Terpersie in October, 1675, and another in February, 1676."
