William married Elizabeth FORSYTH. (Elizabeth FORSYTH was born about 1535 and died after 8 December 1618 2.)


  Marriage Notes:

Elizabethe Forsythe was recorded as the mother of Johnne Gartschoir of that Ilk in his will of 1618, so it almost certainly follows that she was a wife, or the wife of William Gartschoir of that Ilk. 1 2
