  • Notes 


    • Quoting from Electric Scotland

      "In the list of captives taken with David the Second at the battle of D u r h a m i n 1346, occurs William Baillie (Rymer), the first time that the n a m e i s f o und thus written, or Englished, as it is expressed. After his r e l e a s e this William Baillie was, in 1357, knighted by David the Second, w h o g r a n ted him a charter, dated 27th January 1368, of the barony of Lam i n g t o n, which has remained in the possession of his descendants till th e p r e s e nt time. Lamington had previously belonged to a family of the na me o f B r a i dfoot. It is traditionally stated that the celebrated Sir Wil lia m W a l l ace acquired the estate of Lamington by marrying Marion Braidf oo t, t h e h e iress of that family, and that it passed to Sir William Bail l ie o n h i s m arriage wi th t he eldest daughter and heiress of Wallace. T h e s t a t ement, however, is incorrect. Sir William Wallace left no legiti m a t e o f fspring, but his natural daughter is said to have married Sir Wi l l i a m B aillie of Hoprig, the progenitor of the Baillies of La mington."
