About Patrick Gordon of Fulziemont and Johnisleys, 1st Laird of Craig

"The first laird of Craig, Patrick Gordon, son of William Gordon of Tillytarmont, and grandson of Jock of Scurdargue, seems to have wandered about before finally settling down at Craig. He is sometimes designated "in Fulzemont" ; also "in Durnach " (Durno); and he was " in Johnsleys" (Insch) at least as early as 1504. In 1510 he got the lands of Auchindoir, Fulzemont, and Crawok (now Craik, west of Craig Castle) from Sir Alexander Irvine of Drum, whose family had them from Alexander Stewart, Earl of Mar, soon after Harlaw. According to the Balbithan MS., Patrick, who married a Barclay of Towie Barclay and who is supposed to have built the Castle of Craig, fell at Flodden; but he seems to have been alive in 1519."
