| Notes |
- EARLDOM OF ROSS [SCT] (IV, 2)
WILLIAM (DE ROSS), 4th EARL OF ROSS [SCT], son and heir, was one of the Scottish magnates who, in 1258, made an alliance with Llewelyn, Prince of Wales, against England. In 1262 he led an invasion of the Isles. He is said to have had a grant of Lewis and Skye from Alexander III.
He married Jean, daughter of William COMYN, afterwards justiciary of Scotland (in right of his 2nd wife, EARL OF BUCHAN), by his 1st wife Sarah, younger daughter and coheir of Robert FITZHUGH. He died in May 1274, at Earl's Allan. [Complete Peerage XI:143, (transcribed by Dave Utzinger)]
Note: I have not been able to find "Earl's Allan"; however Bill Bradley, World Connect db=hwbradley, a respected contributor to soc.genealogy.mediveal, states that it is in Aberdeenshire.
