=== Life Sketch ===
Sir Robert de Lawedre (Lauder), Knt., of Quarrelwood, Edrington, and the Bass (died about 1370) was Justiciar of Scotia, a Scottish soldier of great prominence and Captain of Urquhart Castle. He is recorded by Fordun, in his Scotichronicon, and in Extracta ex variis Cronicis Scocie as "Robertus de Lavedir 'the good'"
Sir Robert's wife is unknown. However, there are records of at least five children, three boys and two girls:
William de Lawedre, 'senior', of Burgh Muir, Edinburgh, who died without issue in 1375 when his brother Alan was retoured his heir.
Alan de Lawedre, of Whitslaid (Berwickshire), and of Haltoun House (d. before March 1406/7 when his son Robert was retoured his heir).
Hector de Lawedre, "armiger de Scot" received safe-conducts from King Edward III on 20 May 1365 and 14 October 1366 (on the latter date accompanied by seven associates) to travel to England.[6] As no other Lauder family than this are on record as armigers at this period of time it is assumed that Hector must belong here.
Mariotta de Lawedre, mentioned as "filia Roberti de Lowedre" living in a tenement [of land] at Paxton (possibly at Edrington) of which Robert is being forfeited by the English, 1335–36.
Ann de Lawedre, who married Sir Robert Chisholm, originally from Roxburghshire, and upon whom her father settled much of his northern lands as dowry. In the archives is a charter of Robert de Lauedre, Knt., in favour of Robert de Chesholm of that ilk of lands, rents, etc., belonging to Lauedre, dated 27 July 1366.[7]
