GORDON

 

 

 

The early generations of the Gordon family are a bit vague in many of the sources., though it seems clear that the many branches of the family descend from one Sir Adam Gordon. Among the most important branches are the Gordons of Lochinvar, Viscounts Kenmure; the Gordons of Haddo, Earls of Aberdeen; and the Gordons of Pitlurg.

 

 

 

Part 1a: Gordon [of the Seton family]

 

The first part of this page will deal with the branch of the Earls and Marquesses of Huntly, Dukes of Gordon, who are actually descended from the Setons in the male line.

 

 

Alexander Seton, son of William Seton, of that Ilk, married in 1408 Elizabeth, daughter of John Gordon, of Gordon and Huntly. Inheriting these important Gordon lands, he is sometimes considered to have been created Lord Gordon. He died 1440/1, and she on 16 Mar 1439. [Alexander was great-uncle of the 1st Lord Seton.] They had issue:

 

1a) Alexander Seton, later [ca 1457] Gordon, cr 1444/5 Earl of Huntly (d.Huntly 15 Jul 1470); m.1st ca 1427 (annulled) Gille Hay; m.2nd Elizabeth, dau of 1st Lord Crichton; the children of 2nd marriage all took surname Gordon, while the son of the 1st remained a Seton; at some point Huntly resigned his estates and obtained a new charter leaving them to his issue by 2nd marriage, and only after them to the issue of the 1st marriage, and this apparently applied also to his Earldom
