  General Notes:

"George Gordon, V. of Terpersie, is apparently the George Gordon 'from Terpersie' who was at King's College, Aberdeen, in 1668. He is mentioned in a sasine as younger of Terpersie in 1677 and was present at a heritors' meeting at Keig on October 23 of the same year. On February 5, 1696, he was served heir (1) to his grandfather, William, III. of Terpersie, and to his great-grandfather, George, II. of Terpersie (Supplement to Retours of General Service, Nos. 8,764 and 8,765). Very little has been discovered about this laird except the details in the Poll Book of 1696, where his estates are detailed. His valuation 'within the whole shire [was] £981 Scots ; his poll, £12 6s. ; his lady, 4 daughters, 2 sons [their names are not given], poll, £4 10s. ; 2 men servants at £24 and £6 ; one woman at £g 6s. 8s. ; 1 at £6 6s. 8d. ; and one at no fee'."
