jun 7, 1368 - Ewan marrys Bruce'sGrandaughter
Description:
Ewan married Joan (also spelled Jonet or Janet) who was the daughter of Sir Thomas Isaac and Princess Matilda, who was Robert the Bruces daughter.
King David II made the lands of Glenlyon in Perthshire a wedding present to his niece Joan and her Ewan. These Perthshire lands had been devastated by the Black Plague which reached Scotland in 1350 so Ewan repopulated Glenlyon and the dale of Fortingall with MacDougalls from Argyll. He laid out the Glenlyon estate regulations for land usage which remained in use there until about 1780.
