WILLIAM See also:GORDON , 6th See also:viscount (d. 1716), Jacobite See also:leader, son of See also:Alexander, 5th viscount (d. 1698), was descended from the same See also:family as See also:Sir See also:John Gordon of Lochinvar (d. 1604), whose See also:grandson, Sir John Gordon (d. 1634), was
created Viscount Kenmure in 1633. The family had generally adhered to the Presbyterian cause, but See also:Robert, the 4th viscount, had been excepted from the See also:amnesty granted to the Scottish royalists in 1654, and the 5th viscount, who had succeeded his kinsman Robert in 1663, after some vacillation, had joined the See also:court of the exiled Stuarts. The 6th viscount's adherence to the Pretender in 1715 is said to have been due to his wife See also:Mary Dalzell (d. 1776), See also:sister of Robert, 6th See also:earl of Carnwath. He raised the royal See also:standard of See also:Scotland at Lochmaben on the 12th of See also:October 1715, and was joined by about two See also:hundred See also:gentle-men, with Carnwath, William See also:Maxwell, 5th earl of See also:Nithsdale, and See also:George See also:Seton, 5th earl of Wintoun. This small force received some additions before Kenmure reached See also:Hawick, where he learnt the See also:news of the See also:English rising. He effected a junction with See also:- THOMAS
