[11595] http://philsgenes.org states that Joanna m. 1430 in Edenhall Manor, Edenhall, Cumberland to Thomas Musgrave (b. ca. 1417 in Hartly Castle, Kirkby Stephen, Westmoreland,d. by Oct 1457 in Hartly Castle, Kirkby Stephen, Westmoreland).
[5024] {Name from "The Bruce Journal," Vol. 1, No. 4, p. 50.} John, of Stobhall, m. Mary, dau. & heir of Sir William de Montifex. Joh's father, Malcolm, was b. ca. 1315 and "of Inchmohomo, Scotland" - Malcolm d. 1346 in the Battle of Durhan. "The Great Historic Families of Scotland," James Taylor (London: J.S Virtue & Co., 1889), p. 90: "When the War of Independence broke out the Drummonds embraced the patriotic side. John of Drummond was taken prisoner at the battle of Dunbar, and was imprisoned in the castle of Wisbeach; but he was set at liberty in August, 1297, on Sir Edmund Hastings, proprietor of part of Menteith in right of his wife, Lady Isabella Comyn, offering himself as security, and on the condition that he would accompany King Edward to France. His eldest son, Sir Malcolm Drummond, was a zealous supporter of the claims of Robert Bruce to the Scottish throne, and like his father fell into the hands of the English, having been taken prisoner by Sir John Segrave. On hearing this 'good news,' King Edward, on the [p.90] 20th of August, 1301, offered oblations at the shrine of St. Mungo, in the cathedral of Glasgow. After the independence of the country was secured by the crowning victory of Bannockburn, Malcolm was rewarded for his services by King Robert Bruce with lands in Perthshire. Sir Robert Douglas, the eminent genealogist, conjectures that the caltrops, or four-spiked pieces of iron, with the motto 'Gang warily,' in the armorial bearings of the Drummonds, were bestowed as an acknowledgment of Sir Malcolm's active efforts in the use of these formidable weapons at the battle of Bannockburn. His grandson, John Drummond, married the eldest daughter and co-heiress of Sir John Montefex, It has hitherto been supposed that the estates of Stobhall and Cargill, on the Tay, which still belong to the family, came into the possession of the Drummonds by marriage with this heiress, but they were in reality bestowed by David II. on Queen Margaret, and were given by her to Malcolm of Drummond, her nephew . . . the first of the numerous fortunate marriages made by the Drummonds. Maurice, another grandson, married the heiress of Concraig and of the Stewardship of Strathearn. A second son, Sir Malcolm, whom Wyntoun terms 'a manfull knycht, baith wise and wary,' fought at the battle of Otterburn in 1388, in which his brother-in-law, James, second Earl of Douglas and Mar, was killed, and succeeded him in the latter earldom, in right of his wife, Lady Isabel Douglas, only daughter of William, first Earl of Douglas. He seems to have had some share in the capture at that battle of Ralph Percy, brother of the famous Hotspur, as he received from Robert III. a pension of £20, in satisfaction of the third part of Percy's ransom, which exceeded £600. He died of his 'hard captivity' which he endured at the hands of a band of ruffians by whom he was seized and imprisoned. His widow, the heiress of the ancient family of Mar, was forcibly married by Alexander Stewart, a natural son of 'the Wolf of Badenoch.'"
