Biography

Patrick Douglas is a member of Clan Douglas.

Patrick Douglas is designated as being "of Standingstone" which is near Garvald & Whittinghame in East Lothian. He is mentioned as the 4th son of William Douglas of Whittinghame.[1]

Patrick Douglas of Standingstone (d.1626) appears with his spouse Christina (d.1628) daughter of Andrew Leslie and Anna Bruce. Patrick's parents are given as Sir William Douglas of Whittinghame and Elizabeth Maitland.[2]

Further genealogical notes on this family can be found in The Spottiswoode Miscellany.

"(278) Patrick Douglas of Brokholis [sic] and of Standingstone, described as brother of Archibald of Whittinghame, 1610, second son of No. 276, married Cristian, daughter of Andrew Davidson Leslie. The Will of " Cristian Leslie, relict of Patrik Douglas in Standand-staine," parish of Morham, constab. of Haddington, is recorded Edinburgh 20th June 1628."[3] The Patrick Douglas of Brockholes is the Patrick of the previous generation. Harvey has them confused. The above Patrick is of Standingstone, near Garvald, Haddingtonshire. He is his parent's fourth son.

From outlinks and this brief paragraph in Wikipedia: "Patrick Douglas of Standingstone, East Lothian (witnessed a Sasine to "his brother german" Archibald on 7 May 1596), whose son, Field Marshal Robert Douglas, Count of Skenninge, friherre (baron) of Skalby, Sweden, was a commander in later stages of Thirty Years War. Patrick was maternal grandfather to *Sir Robert Lauder of Beilmouth [d. 24 Jun 1709]."

We can ultimately discern that

"Kristina Lesle" from the Danish was Patrick Douglas' wife
daughter Marie Douglas (d. bef. Jul 1657) married Robert Lauder ("elder") of Belhaven and West Barns in Dunbar (d. c. 1672). Their son is briefly described, as above*
elder Robert Lauder descends from Lauders of The Bass

Any hopes of linking up these folks? (Lauders, especially.)
