| The first Robert shown here is often identified as the progenitor of the Boyd families although that is by no means certain. He was named Boyd from his complexion, 'boidh' meaning fair. He is often shown as son of Simon, brother of Walter, 3rd Hereditary Steward of Scotland, but that appears to have been both a misidentification of that Simon and presumptuous as to Robert's relationship with that Simon. | |||||||||||||||

| Alexander is referred to by TSP as being the 3rd Lord but was apparently not recognised as such in his lifetime. On the basis that he was later accepted as 'de jure' Lord, we follow TSP but note that, as BE1883 does not, the numbering of the Lords is not hereafter agreed by the main sources. | |||||||||||||||
