About Margaret Montifex, co-heiress of Montefichet

Biography

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 Margaret's part to Hugh Danielston, whose successor was Lord Lyle. King David's gifts are dated at Dunbarton in 1366.
