    Notes:

    Sir William Keith, succeeded his father [Lord Robert de Keith] between 2 July 1430 and 20 May 1431.

    In a charter dated 20 May 1442, he conveyed to Robert de Keth, Knight, his eldest son, whom failing, to William, John, or Alexander, brothers of the said Robert, the lands of Keith, Garvock, Dunottar, Fetteresso, Strathechin, Culpersow, Kintore, and Aden, together with the offices of Marischal of Scotland and Sheriff of Kincardine.

    Between 1446 and July 1451 he was made a Lord of Parliament as LORD KEITH. The date of creation can only be approximately ascertained. In an official report of evidence regarding a dispute between the family of Skene of Skene and that of the Marischal, held before a Court in the Cathedral of Aberdeen on 22 September 1446, he is styled Sir William Keith, Marischal.

    In a series of charters granted by King James II on 6 July 1451, he is styled Lord Keith, and appears as the latest on the list of Peers after William, Lord Hay, the constable, who was created before 10 april 1450. His creation, therefore was then probably of recent date.

    He was one of the guarantors of a treaty of peace with the English in 1457, and on 6 August of that year he witnesses the confirmation of a treaty by King James II as Lord Keith. Later he was raised a step in the Peerage, as in a royal charter dated 7 October of the following year (1458), he is designed 'dilectus consanguineus noster' EARL of MARISCHAL and 1ST LORD KEITH.

    He died probably before Witsunday 1463, and certainly before 16 March 1463-64.

    He married a lady named Mary who is usually said to have been the daughter of Sir James Hamilton of Cadzow, but there is no evidence of this, and the dates make it doubtful.

    On 26 April 1414, Pope Benedict XIII issued a commission to grant dispensation for the marriage of 'William de Ketht' of St. Andrews diocese and Marjorie Fraser, daughter of Alexander Fraser of Moray diocese. This is probably the wife of Sir William Keith, and the daughter of Alexander Fraser of Kinnell and Lovat, who, as stated above, appears to have married about the same time Sir William's youngest sister, Marion.

    She was dead before August 1442.

    Thy had issue:

    1. Sir Robert, in whose favour his father resigned his estates and offices in 1442. He is said to have died v.p. in 1446, ...
    2. William, who succeeded as second Earl Marischal.
    3. John, mentioned in a charter by his father dated 20 May May 1442.
    4. Alexander, mentioned in the same charter with his elder brother John.
    5. Janet, married, first to John Leslie, Master of Rothes; secondly, to Thomas, second Lord Innermeath. Based on the ages of her husbands, this Janet is most likely to be the daughter of William, Second Earl, and she has been moved to his family.
    6. Egidia, married to James, second Lord Forbes, and was still a widow 14 August 1473.

    I also found reference to his wife as the above Marjorie Fraser, dau of Alexander Fraser and Elizabeth Keith, The marriage date is correct, 26 April 1414, but to Marjorie Fraser.


    William married Lady Mary Marjorie HAMILTON on 26 Apr 1414 in Dunnottar, Kincardineshire, Scotland. Mary (daughter of Sir John HAMILTON, 4th Laird of Cadzow and Jacoba DOUGLAS) was born in 1395 in Lovat Castle, Kilmorack, Iverness-shire, Scotland; died on 1 Aug 1442 in Picardie, France; was buried in Jul 1442 in Dunotter Castle, Kincardineshire, Scotland.
