Lauder of Haltoun (Halton)
| Haltoun was often pronounced "Hatton" and so is sometimes spelled like that. However, 'Haltoun' is viewed as its proper spelling. | |||||||||||||||
| Sir George de Lawedre or Lauder of Haltoun, Provost of Edinburgh (d c1430) | |||||||||||||||
| m. (before 1400) Helen Douglas (dau of Archibald Douglas, 3rd Earl of Douglas) | |||||||||||||||
| Young's 'Notes' omitted Sir George and showed uncertainty on the Alexanders & Williams & their spouses of this and succeeding generations. Different sources (including cross-references from 'The Scots Peerage') sometimes contradict each other. It seems likely that the works by GLF and AMF will become the accepted sources of information on this family. | |||||||||||||||
