    Land & Property:
    Documentary evidence shows that there was a prominent family called Bard or Barde of Posso in Peeblesshire between the 13th and 16th centuries.

    It would appear that the Bards occupied Posso prior to 1296 when Thomas de Bard was sheriff of Peebles (less than six miles distant from Posso). His descendent Lawrence Bard of Posso was married to the daughter of Lord Sommerville around 1364 and later a Sir Gilbert Bard of Posso was possibly killed at the Battle of Flodden in 1513 (alongside King James 1V of Scotland) - although there is no evidence to substantiate this claim.

    Gilbert married Lillias "Lilly" Lindsay, of Ordinhivas. Lillias was born in 1434 in Peebles, Peebles-shire, Scotland; died in 1513 in Scotland, United Kingdom; was buried in 1513 in Scotland, United Kingdom. [Group Sheet] [Family Chart]


  2. 5.  Lillias "Lilly" Lindsay, of Ordinhivas was born in 1434 in Peebles, Peebles-shire, Scotland; died in 1513 in Scotland, United Kingdom; was buried in 1513 in Scotland, United Kingdom.
