Biography

Euphame Clavering is a member of Clan Murray.

Euphame, daughter of Roger FitzJohn and Isabel of Dunbar,^[1]

She married firstly, before 1262, William Comyn, Knt.^[1]

She married secondly, in 1286, Andrew de Moray, Knt.^[1]

Research Notes

Euphame's father died shortly before 22 Jun 1249^[1] placing her birth no later than Feb 1250. Her first marriage was before 1262 and this, too, puts her birth no later than 1250 as the minimum age for girls to marry was 12. Her second marriage was in 1286 and her son by that marriage possibly born in 1287 so that one recogniing that women rarely produce offspring after age 47, her birth was likely after 1240. A birth year of 1245, then, is a reasonable approximation.
