RAMSAY, Alexander of Carnock ¹

   User ID: K821

  General Notes:

"Alexander (Ramsay), who had from his brother, Sir William, a charter of the lands of Kernok, confirmed by David II. 11 November 1341 (note of Carnock charters communicated by Horatius Bonar, W.S.). About the same time he had from the same king a charter of the lands of Hawthornden, forfeited by Laurence Abernethy (Reg. Mag. Sig. i. new ed. App. 2, p. 563). He was, no doubt, the hero of the exploits recounted on p. 89 of text, and the victim of the Knight of Liddesdale's revenge. He was buried in Newbattle Church, see text p. 90, 1. 29. He left a son Alexander, of whom below."
