  • Notes 
    • Sir William Lindsay of the Byres, married Christiana, daughter of Sir William Keith, Marischal of Scotland, who brought him the territorial Barony and Castle of Dunnottar, Kincardineshire, which he afterwards exchanged with the Keiths for Struthers, Fife, allegedly stipulating that the infant eldest son and heir of Lindsay should in time of feuding within the family be sheltered in the Castle, which was thought impregnable. [Burke's Peerage]
