About Annabella Menzies
From http://digital.nls.uk/histories-of-scottish-families/pageturner.cfm...
Thus fell Sir Robert the Menzies, Earl, or Viscount, of Edinburgh, fighting by the side of David II., the son of his fellow companion-in-arms, the great Bruce, in the service of whom he had distinguished himself at Bannockburn and in several of the invasions of England. He suffered the confiscation of his lands in Edinburghshire by the orders of Edward III. for his strenuous support of the house of his old leader and king ; as also did his brother, Sir Alexander of Menzies, and daughter (or sister), Annabella of Menzies. He was born about 1267 and died 1346, and left three sons and one daughter, Annabella:
(ist.) Annabella Menzies — who received the lands and barony of Kinniel, with Barrowstouness in Linlithgowshire — married Sir David Hamilton, by which marriage these old Menzies lands descended to the present Dukes of Hamilton. They had three sons — ist, Sir David, ancestor of the Duke; 2nd, Walter, from whom the Hamiltons of Grange and Cambuskeith in Ayrshire descend ; 3d, Alan, from whom are the Hamiltons of Larbert in Linlithgowshire. — Scottish Nation, p. 416, vol.
