Research Notes:
3rd Earl of Huntley, of Earldom cr 1444 or 1445 [Ref: CP VI p677]
3rd Earl of Huntley [Ref: CP V p657, Richardson RoyalAnc v1p242, Roberts RD600
p119, Roberts RD600 p84, Weis AR7 #252]
heir of his father [Ref: CP VI p677, Richardson RoyalAnc v1p242]
identity of his mother is very doubtful [Ref: CP VI p677(f)]
whether he was the son of Princess Annabella or Elizabeth Hay is a point which
has been much disputed. The former opinion is apparently swupported by the
fact that the Master of Huntley is found not only sitting in Parliament in
1485, but one of he Lords of the Articles. On the other hand, there is a
charter of 21 Feb 1504/5 to Elizabeth, Countess of Huntley, in which she is
distinctly referred to as 'mother' of Alexander, Earl of Huntley. Besides, on
4 Jul 1492 the divorce of Lady Annabella and the publicaiton, in 1471, of the
banns of his father and Elizabeth Hay were recorded in the Consistorial Court
of Aberdeen at the Earl's request, a proceeding he would hardly have taken had
he been the son of the Princess [Ref: SP IV p531]
Privy Councillor [Ref: Richardson RoyalAnc v1p242]
King's Lieutenant north of the Forth [Ref: Richardson RoyalAnc v1p242]
Hereditary Sheriff of both Inverness and Aberdeen [Ref: Richardson RoyalAnc
v1p242]
Lieutenant over all Scotland (except Argyll's bounds) [Ref: Richardson
