According to the text he was son of Margaret Gordon of haddo. That is stated in the Barclay allardyce ,charter chest ,dated c.1700titled a généalogie ouf, the barons in the mearns of late memory descending linearly unto the year of god 1578 .(the miscellany of the third Spalding club.II Aberdeen 1940:p.219) hereinafter “Barons”. However she is not mentioned in the top section. Possibly Alexander II was the illegit sonne of Alexander I and Margaret Gordon of haddo
