Although an unreliable source (ThePeerage.com) says John Crichton and Christian Gremislaw are the parents of Patrick, a reliable source (James Balfour Paul - Scots Peerage) lists only a son named William. The RMS indicates that the parents were David Crichton and Margaret Schaw RMS #956 p. 198
Lots of sources for other Crichton's, but having a hard time find some good ones for Patrick. I have seen personal family trees on Ancestry.com that show the following:
Patrick Crichton b. 1435 m. 1st Deborah Erskine of Bakersfield (b. abt 1440) c. 1460, issue: Janet Crichton, b. 1461, m. 2nd Lady Ellen Shaw (b. abt 1458) c. 1478, issue: Agnes Crichton, b. 1483.
Wish I could find some good sources, but these dates fix the problems with the Kerr children.
I cannot locate any source that supports the idea that a Deborah Erskine was the daughter of Thomas Erskine and Janet Douglas and the wife of Patrick Crichton.
Having the same grandparental lineage of Patrick Crichton 1405-1461
Patrick the eighth great grandfather of James.
Patrick the 16th great grandfather of Walter.
