Book Description

Excerpt from The Manuscripts of His Grace the Duke of Buccleuch and Queensberry K. G., K. T, Vol. 8: Preserved at Drumlanrig Castle The important documents here reported on establish the fact that. Instead of predeceasing her husband, William, first Earl of Douglas, she survived him and married as her second husband Sir John Swinton of Swinton, while her son having survived his father inherited the two titles of Douglas and Mar. These facts were clearly established when the Drumlanrig charters in question were produced in the House of Lords.
