Leslie Baronets

The Grafen von Leslie

The two lines represented in Parts 1-A and 2, below, stem from two sons of Sir Andrew Leslie (d.by 1324). The lines represented in Parts 4 and 5 are branches of the Leslies of Balquhain, descended from the same son of Sir Andrew as the line in Part 2.

Part 1-A

Leslie, Earls of Rothes

The family of Leslie has many branches, including that of the Earls of Leven (see Part 2), but this section will begin with the 1^st Earl of Rothes

3b) William, 3^rd Earl of Rothes, k.a.Flodden 9 Sep 1513; m. Margaret [or Janet] Balfour, per Burke’s and Scots Peerage; Cokayne notes this in a footnote, but in the main text says only that the earl married, possibly twice

1c) George, 4^th Earl of Rothes, d.Dieppe 1558; m.1^st by 1517 (div 1520) Margaret, nat. dau of 3^rd Lord Crichton by Princess Margaret Stewart; m.2^nd Elizabeth (d.1526 [1527?]), dau of Andrew, Lord Gray, and widow of Earl of Huntly and of Lord Glamis; m.3^rd by 29 Jan 1530 Agnes (d.1541/3), dau of Sir John Somerville, and widow of Lord Fleming; m.4^th by 10 Apr 1543 Isabel, dau of ___ Lundy, and widow of Earl of Crawford; he contracted to marry 5thly Christian, dau of ___ Wood, widow of George Strang

2e) [illegitimate, legitimized 1554] John

2d) [ex 1] William fl 1573; he was bypassed for the titles, apparently because of limited involvement in the murder of Cardinal Beaton, but was probably de jure 5^th Earl of Rothes

Janet Elphinstone (16 Mar 1535-1598/9) à issue, Leslies of Findrassie, who were probably de jure Earls of Rothes; Cokayne says he was from 1^st m.; Burke’s says he was from 4^th m.; Scots Peerage says he was certainly the son of Margaret Crichton, and notes that one source says he was born 1541, during a brief reunion of his parents, but goes on to cite other evidence that he must have been much older than someone born in 1541; per Complete Baronetage, sub Gordon of Embo, Sir John Gordon, 1^st Bt., married Margaret, dau of Hon. Robert Leslie of Findrassie by Margaret Dunbar; Query whether this Robert is too old to be the father, and maybe he is the grandfather of this Margaret Leslie? Also note that her mother is said to be Margaret Dunbar, not the wife sources say Hon. Robert married

4d) [ex 1, per Scots Peerage] Janet, d.Kirkcaldy 17 Dec 1591; m.1^st David Crichton (d.ca 1553); m.2^nd by 15 May 1557 John Grant of Freuchie (d.1585); m.3^rd by 6 Aug 1587 James Elphinstone, son of 2^nd Lord Elphinstone

1f) Patrick, 2^nd Lord Lindores, d.Pitcairly 8 Aug 1649; actually he seems to have been cr Lord Lindores ca 1600 but must have resigned the title before 1606 when his father was certainly so called

5e) Margaret; m.25 Dec 1575 (div 1587) Archibald Douglas, 8^th Earl of Angus (d.4 Aug 1588); note that Cokayne has her as dau of 4^th Earl of Rothes by 1^st m., and Burke’s has her as dau of 4^th Earl of Rothes by 4^th m.; Scots Peerage has her as dau of the 5^th Earl, and the dates make that most likely

1h) Alexander, 6^th Lord Lindores, bur 3 Sep 1765; m.Jean Campbell (d.London 25 Feb 1790); he assumed the title on the death of the 5^th Lord in 1719 on the assumption that it had been created with remainder to heirs male whatsoever, though there is no proof of that; nevertheless the title was accorded to him, though since the title was disallowed by the next claimant, possibly his own right to it was not good

2h) Elizabeth; m.James Spital [Spittal]
