Patrick Heriot, brother of George Heriot, was respited along with John Heriot in 1504. Not much more is known of Patrick.
His sister, Agnes Heriot who married Thomas Buchanan, named one of her children Patrick.
In 1504 James IV granted “special respite” and protection to the men, kin, tenants, factors, and servants of Robert (Blackadder), Archbishop of Glasgow, for their participation in the murder of Thomas Rutherford at Jedburgh. Among the many parties mentioned as having been respited with protection are Robert’s brother Adam Blackadder as well as “John Heriot” and “Patrick Heriot and George, his brother.” It also appears that David Heriot, Laird of Trabroun, a brother of Patrick and George, participated in this affair, but was declared a rebel and did not receive respite. This again demonstrates the closeness of the two families.
