| 1 William obtained his earldom through
his second marriage so that title passed to his eldest son by that marriage.
2 TSP reports that "The name of his first wife has not been ascertained" but adds in a note that she may have been a daughter of Robert Fitzhugh. TCP Buchan reports that William had 3 sons by his unnamed 1st wife: Richard whose son John became Earl of Angus through his wife, Walter who became Earl of Menteith through his wife and Sir John of Badenoch, grandfather of Sir John 'the Red' who d 1305. We follow TSP which disagrees with TCP in showing John of Badenoch as son rather than brother of Richard but does not show how John, Earl of Angus, fits into this family. m1 ??
