Personal Info
He is not named in the writ of 1390, but is named sixth son of Earl George in the safe-conduct of 1402. Some time before his father's death he had a grant of the lands of Cockburn and Brigham, in Berwickshire, the latter for life only. It was probably he who, in May 1421, was sent a prisoner to the Tower. On 20 February 1437, when King James i. was attacked by his murderers, Sir David rushed to the King's assistance, but was wounded and disabled. He was still alive in 1443. He had issue, and Margaret Dunbar, his heiress (either his daughter or granddaughter) carried the lands of Cockburn and Brigham to her husband Alexander, fourth Earl of Crawford.5
