Personal Info
For some unknown reason (probably the influence of his step-mother) he was passed over by his father in the succession to Clackmannan, in favour of his half-brother David. Robert of Rait died before his father in 1490 when his widow was wife of Alexander Scott, son of William Scott of Balwery, and in a charter from his father Sir David to the monastery of Scone, 29 November 1490, he is mentioned as 'quondam.' This charter was confirmed 7 May 1491.7
