Note on Husband: William LAUDER

William, 'of the west port' of Lauder, hereditary baillie, & burgess of Lauder, "hacked to death" on the 10th May 1598 at the Tolbooth, Lauder, in a feud with the Cranstouns and Homes. For this crime the Presbytery of Haddington excommunicated Lord Home until he repented and made reparations. He was subsequently pardoned by James VI in November 1606. Lord Fountainhall calls this William Lauder his grandfather's brother and states that he left a daughter Agnes, who married 22nd August 1618, at Lasswade, Edinburghshire, William Calderwood, with issue. William Lauder's testament was given up by his widow, Christian Borthwick, doubtless a close relation of his brother Robert's relict. In addition to Agnes, he left another daughter, Jean, who was alive in 1603.
