Scottish Nobles
People of Medieval Scotland
This is reference page and should open in a new window so that I can reference it from the People of Medieval Scotland and Sir John in Scotland.
I also need to explain the Wikipedia page on Botetourt - looking closer on the Powys-Lybbe website. Tim's emphasis on heiresses may explain why Botetourt is caught up in all this. There is a reference to Joyce de Botetourt.
Scottish Nobles

A title he is said to have inherited from his father William Sinclair in 1358
but it's more likely he acquired it much later in life. (i.e. a later Henry Sinclair)
- Henry St Clair, 7th Baron of Roslin - He fought at the Battle of Dunbar on 27 April 1296, where he and his
father William were captured and he became a prisoner of King Edward I of England at St Briavels Castle.
