Hon. Gilbert Kennedy was born circa 1605.1,2

He was the son of Hew Kennedy, Master of Cassillis and Katherine Macdowall.1 He died after 1632.1

He matriculated at Glasgow University, Glasgow, Lanarkshire, Scotland, on 3 March 1617.

It would appear that Gilbert Kennedy "My Lord of Cassillis brother" has not been found mentioned after 9 March 1632. Significantly, perhaps, his name is not mentioned in the regrant obtained by his brother, Earl John, on 29 September 1642. https://archive.org/details/scotspeeragefoun02pauluoft/page/474
