A charter, in the possession of the Robertons of Earnock, has for witnesses, Walterus, filius Gilberti, et Hugo frater ejusdem.
In classical Latin frater means "brother" or sometimes "cousin", which was often a term of endearment for close friends as well as literal brothers. Ejusdem meaning "of the same kind" so we have a brother who is also "filius Gilberti".
