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

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,

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
