Heiress of Lochorwart.
daughter of Sir Thomas Hay of Lochorwart. [Burke's Peerage]
Note: Even though Miss Hay's brother William & nephew David were
connected with Lochorwart, somehow Miss Hay's son William Borthwick enDe d
up with the land, because he built Borthwick Castle on the Lochorwart
Cas tle site in 1430. Some histories say that James I of Scotland granted
the lan d to William 1st Lord Borthwick, and he built Borthwick Castle
upon the site of the older Lochorwart Castle. I would suspect that this
marriage had someth ing to do with the Borthwick family getting ahold of
Lochorwart (also spelled Lockerworth).
