About Andrew Moray of Bothwell, Knight

A genealogical and heraldic history of the landed gentry ; or, Commoners of Great Britain and Ireland by John Burke Page 620

Sir Andrew Moray, of Bothwell, who is styled Sir William's son, by Crawfurd, but erroneously, as appears from the last clause in Sir Williams' mortification of the church of Wallyston, to the see of Glasgow, in which Andrew appends his seal to the deed, as his brother's presumptive heir, " Sigillum nostrum apposiumus," saith Sir William, " et sigillum Domini Andre* Moravia, fratris nostri, apponi procuravimus." Sir Andrew Moray, who was joint governor of the kingdom, distinguished himself as the associate of Wallace, when that illustrious patriot reared the standard of national independence.

He m. a daughter of Sir John Cumin, Lord of Badenach, and falling at the battle of Stirling, left issue,

I. Andrew (Sir), who succeeded at Bothwell. He espoused the Lady Christian Bruce, sister of King Robert I. of Scotland, and had two sons,

John, ) successively lords of Thomas, S Bothwell. The elder dying without issue, and the younger, Thomas, leaving an only daughter and heiress, Jean, m. to Archibald, Lord of Galloway, afterwards Earl of Douglas, the representation of the family devolved on the posterity of William Moray, of Drumsar-

gard.
