Notes for Sir Alexander de Abernethy
His wife is unknown.

Aug 2006: John Ravilous in soc.genealogy.medieval on 24th August has come up with some evidence about a Margaret de Abrenythy who was in Queen Isabella of England’s household in 1311-12 in the company of other four and well-married ladies.  So he suggests that she was the wife of this Alexander de Abernethy.  He further wonders if she was a daughter of Alexander, earl of Mentieth.  Further developments are eagerly awaited.

Nov 2006: John Ravilous has been told by Andrew MacEwen that the latter has found evidence that Margaret was indeed a daughter of earl Alex of Mentieth.  Details to be produced in a forthcoming publication.
