About wife of William Montifex

Family

https://www.clanmacfarlanegenealogy/

At his death, Sir William Montifex left three daughters.

  • 1. Mary, married to Sir Johu Drummond of Stobhall, who got with her the lands of Cargill, Auchterairder, Kincardine, &c.
  • 2. Dornagill ; and,
  • 3. Margaret.

These last two were dissatisfied with the king's division of their father's estate, and fled to England to complain. Their inheritance was immediately forfeited, and the king gave Doraagill's portion of Pitfour and Dumgrum, to Duncan Napier: Pitcook in Perthshire, and half Kilmahew in Dunbarton, to William Napier: and Margaret's part to Hugh Danielston, whose successor was Lord Lyle. King David's gifts are dated at Dunbarton in 1366.

I was told that Mary was Mary Fitzgilbert de Clare. Can't find a person of that name marrying a William Montifex.
