Eleanor Douglas 
Eleanor was born about 1317 in Douglas,Lanarkshire,Scotland. She was an only child. She died about 1380.General Notes
Eleanor, only sister of 1st Earl of Douglas and widow of Alexander Bruce, 1st and last Earl of Carrick of the c1330 creation. [Burke's Peerage, p. 2831]
Note: There is some confusion in Burke's Peerage as to Eleanor's ancestry. Pages 2831 & 418 name her "only sister of 1st Earl of Douglas". Yet page 2325 states that she is an illegitimate daughter of the 1st Earl by Margaret Stewart, Countess of Angus in her own right. I think her birth date precludes her being daughter of Margaret Stewart.
Eleanor and Alexander were married in a religious ceremony about 1330 in 1st husband.1 They had a daughter named Eleanor.
