About Princess Annabella Gordon (Stewart)

First marriage

Her first husband was Louis of Savoy, Count of Geneva whom she married in 1447 on either April 1 or December 14. However, in the year 1458 they separated, divorced and the marriage was annulled upon the request of Charles VII of France.

Second marriage

Annabella returned to Scotland and married George Gordon, 2nd Earl of Huntly. Notwithstanding this alliance, her ill fate pursued her, and she was legally divorced from her second husband by a sentence pronounced in the year 1471 which proceeded on the ground of consanguinity with his first wife, Elizabeth Dunbar, 8th Countess of Murray, as the two ladies were within the third and fourth degrees of relation.

Issue

Annabella and her second husband, the Earl of Huntly had issue:

Isabella (d.1485), wife of William Hay, 3rd Earl of Errol (d.1507).

She was thought also to have been mother to another five of his children, however this is improbable.

[What is certain is that there were no sons.]
