    • TitleOfNobility: 17 Mar 1452; 1st Earl of Erroll

    Notes:

    William Hay of Erroll, succeeded to the estates in 1436, and had sasine of the lands of Inchira on 25 January 1443-44, on a precept from Joanna Beaufort, Queen of James I, and to him and Beatrix his wife on 30 January 1449-50, on his own resignation. He granted a charter of the lands of Achmore to Sir David Hay of Yester in 1452.

    According to Douglas, he was created EARL OF ERROLL 17 March 1452-53, but the Auchenleck Chronicle states that he was belted Earl in the Parliament held 12 June 1452. As Earl of Erroll, he resigned all his lands into the King's hands to be erected into the lordship of Erroll and regality of Slains respectively, on which resignation he had on 31 july 1452 two charters under the Great Seal, one of the lordship of Errol and the other of the regality of Slains, to himself and a long series of heirs. It was in virtue of these charters that the title and estates passed to the heir-male in 1541, and remained a male fief till the destination was changed in the time of Charles II.

    The Earl was alive on 15 November 1461, so that the date of his death in the Erroll Obits, 24 August 1460, must be wrong. The true date is probably October 1462.

    He married, before 17 March 1449-50, Beatrix Douglas, daughter of James, seventh Earl of Douglas, who survived him.

    William, first Earl, had issue:

    1. Nicholas, second Earl
    2. William, third Earl.
    3. Gilbert, a substitute in a charter of 1460 by his father of the lands of Meikle Arnage. He probably died young.
    4. Elizabeth, who was contracted in marriage ?with Sir Andrew Gray ?
    5. Margaret, married, first, about 1470 to Alexander Fraser, fourth of Philorth ?
    6. Isabel, married Laurence, first Lord Oliphant.
