Margaret Bruce (-some time before November 1347) |
|
|
| |||
Father:1 | Robert I Bruce (11 July 1274-7 June 1329), King of Scots | ||
Mother:2 | Elizabeth de Burgh (-26 October 1327) |
| |||||
Married:3 | 1343 | William Sutherland (-before 1389), 5. Earl of Sutherland | |||
They had a dispensation on 1 December 1342, as they were in the fourth degree of consanguinity, but in a papal indulgence granted to her on 6 November 1343, a year later, she is styled sister of the King of Scots, and not Gountess of Sutherland. Indeed, if the evidence of charters be taken, their marriage did not take place till 1345. |
| ||
Children with William Sutherland: | ||
John Sutherland (-1361)4 |
|
| ||||
Died:5 | some time before November 1347 | |||
She is said to have died at the birth of her only son, and this seems probable. She was alive on 30 March 1346, but she was dead, and her husband had married again before November 1347. |
