HISTORY OF THE HOUSE OF GORDON "...He escaped from Dunbar...and was compelled to surrender at Elgin on the 28th July. His mother, Marjory, had no option but to submit and swear fealty before Edward I which she did on 3rd September. When, in the spring of 1297, Sir William Wallace commenced his noble and patriotic struggle, he was joined by Adam who shared his hardships and brilliant exploits. He distinguished himself at Stirling Bridge, but again had to see Scotland under the feet of the English after Falkirk, a defeat due mainly to the jealousy and treachery of some of the Scottish nobles. 1308 was an eventful year for Sir Adam. Edward I had died the previous year but he continued his adherence to his successor, Edward II from who he reserved [grant of land and to John Balliol]. During same year he was able to be of service to Robert the Bruce. He secured from Edward II the release of Lamberton, Bishop of St. Andrews and Primate, who had been imprisoned in 1306 for his part in the coronation of Bruce, and also by his exertions saved the life of Sir Thomas Randolph...[a major follower of Bruce's]. The death of John Balliol in 1314 released Sir Adam from fealty to him and he sought an interview with Robert Bruce. He took service under Randolph who was created Earl of Moray, fighting under his banner at Bannockburn in June, 1314. His services were rewarded by the King granting him new lands [Strathbogie] and employing him on state affairs of high importance... Sir Adam and Sir Edward Maubisson were chosen to carry the Proclamation of Arbroath, setting forth the grievances suffered from the English and praising the character and rule of Robert..., to the Pope. He left by his wife, Annabella, at least four sons and a daughter. Of these, the eldest son, Alexander succeeded to the Gordun lands, while William, the second son got Stichell as settled by charter of 1315 and from him are descended the Gordons in Galloway (Vol. XII & XIII). John and Thomas became priests and died unmarried; the daughter, Mary, married Sir Walter Hambledon of Cadzow. "
