Hello Everyone,

When reading the about section with the citations and references about this profile it indicates that she is not the mother of Walter the 6th High Steward of Scotland as shown in the profile but that another wife of the James 5th High Steward was: Cecilia de Dunbar the daughter of Patrick de Dunbar, 7th Earl of Dunbar and Marjory Comyn.

Can this be further verified and if indeed it is true the Profile corrected?

Thanks,

Tom Wallace

Sorry for the late reply. It appears that the more current research has all children by third wife Gilles de Burgh, and the marriage to Cecilia de Dunbar is questioned altogether. Hopefully the profile overview is clearer now.
