  • Notes 
    • Robert De Bruce, Lord of Annandale, who was Earl of Carrick, in right
      of his wife, Margaret, the Countess of Carrick. On the death of
      Margaret in 1292, Robert resigned the Earldom of Carrick to his eldest
      son. In 1296, he, along with his eldest son, swore fealty to King
      Edward I. Robert was summoned to parliament as a Baron of England from
      23 Jun 1295 to 26 Jan 1297.

      At age 24, Robert went on a crusade to the Holy Land under Prince
      Edward of England (eventually to become King Edward I). Among his
      fellow crusaders was Adam de Kilconcath Kilconquahar, the husband of
      Robert's future wife Margaret (or Marjory). Adam was killed in battle
      and Robert brought the sad news to Adam's young wife in 1272. Not long
      after, they were married and they had a large family of five sons and
      five daughters.
