Notes about Robert Montgomery 1st Laird Of Giffen

E: Montgomery, 1st of Giffen (a 1413)
m. Janet Murray (dau of Alexander Murray of Touch Adam) The following comes from TSP (Eglinton). However, BEB1841 (Montgomery of Magbie Hill) reports that Robert was succeeded by Adam (of Giffen, alive 1542, elder brother of John) who in turn was succeeded at Giffen by his elder son, another Adam (elder brother of Troilus). We are concerned not least about the dates: in TSP's case because there appears to be a larger number of generations involved over the next 100 years than we would normally expect; in BEB1841's case because there are fewer generations than we would expect. BP1934 (Purvis-Russell-Montgomery) does not attempt to prove the connection between the above Robert and the William Montgomery, father of the William of Magbiehill who married Barbara Rutherford, whom it says acquired the lands of Coldcoat in 1712 and renamed them Magbie-hill. There is clearly some confusion here.
