Paternal line Y-chromosome DNA test-takers:
The daughter we have given this person seems to be a non-existent person. Her two sisters Alice and Hawise were real. Alice married a William Lyndsey. I suppose she should be disconnected and the new merge proposal should apparently not go ahead.
Sir William Lindsay, Dapifer to the High Steward, was not of Luffness, which estate was inherited by his elder brother, Sir David, 3rd Lord of Crawford. The name of the wife of Sir William is unknown.
De Lindsay-45 and Lindsay-713 appear to represent the same person because: SAME NAME, CLOSE TO BIRTH, SAME DEATH, ONE BORN IN LUFFNESS, OTHER DIED IN LUFFNESS, I MADE THE SAME PARENTS AND WIFE. I DO BELIEVE THIS IS WILLIAM OF LUFFNESS.
