HEPBURN, Alexander 1
User ID: E138 General Notes: "So far as any pedigree of the earlier Hepburns of Waughton [or Waulchton] existed or was known to genealogists in Scotland, David Hepburn, the grandfather of the Sir Patrick Hepburn referred to above, was assumed to be the son of the first Sir Patrick Hepburn of Waughton, from whom he inherited the barony. This assumption has been traversed by the tracing, after prolonged search, of a document endorsed 23 March 1473 [-4] ' Special Retour of David Hepburn as heir to his uncle Sir Patrick Hepburn in the Barony of Walchtoune ' in which the said David inherits the barony as lawful and nearest heir of his uncle Sir Patrick ; and the further knowledge that his father's name was Alexander" Alexander married. |
