The passage from this writer's Chmnijck van Zeelandt is given in a note by G. W. Watson in The Genealogist^ N.S., vol. xvi, p. 136. V.G. C') See an able article by G. W. Watson, in The Genealogist, N.S., vol. xiv, pp. lo-ii, entitled "Wolfart van Borssele, Earl of Buchan." This gives full particulars of him and his ancestry, and furnishes almost entirely the facts and state- ments in the above notice. (') He is thus spoken of in Burnett's Genealogy of the Stewart family in the preface to vol. iv of the Exchequer Rolls [S.] 1880, and on the M.I. his wife is described as "Marie van Schotland dochter van Jacop, Koning van Schotland, Gravinne van Bouchane," a description which suggests a suo jure Countess, and which is not given to her husband's Ji-caW wife.

(') In 1487 he sold the Comte of Grandpre, which his father had purchased. (') In 1469, or certainly in 1476 (that is to say after the death [1465] of the Countess Mary, but long before that of her husband, Wolfart [1487]), the Earldom of Buchan was undoubtedly again disposed of, being then conferred on James Stevi^art.
