30 Earty History OF THE CORRIES. 
with one or two notes which add to it, and which have 
escaped the notice of the Professor. Where a query mark 
precedes a name in the pedigree chart, it shows that the 
proof of parentage is wanting. 
In the 12th century there was a Randolph de Corri, who 
witnessed a charter of Overdryfe by Dom. David de Tor- 
thorwald to Henry de Graham (Reg. Hon. de Morton, i., 3). 
Owing to the proximity of Overdryfe to Corrie, there is 
reason to conjecture that Randolph may have been a son of 
Hugh de Corri, 1165-1218. ; 
In 1238 a John Curry of Scotland was a clerk at Oxford 
(Close R., 1237/42, 134)- 
A Robert de Curri was a witness to a Carrick charter, 
r214-49 (Ch. de Melros, i., 172). If conjecture is permis- 
sible, he may have been a brother of Walter de Corry (1). 
Amongst the witnesses of the Kenmure charter, dated 
by Douglas at 1276, was Sir Donald, the son of Corry 
(Aitken MSS.). 
Walter de Corry (2) died in 1303. He had previously 
had quittance of the common summons of the Justice Eyre 
in Cumberland on 27th October, 1278 (Close. R. 1272/9, 509), 
and again in 1292 along with David de Torthorwald and 
others (Close R., 1288/96, 272). In 1300 he was described 
as nephew of Richard de Levington (Fine R., i., 430). He 
was dead by 1oth October, when an order was issued to the 
escheator beyond Trent to take into the King’s hands the 
lands of the late Walter de Corry (Fine R., 1., 483). The 
inquisition was held on 2oth October and on 30th January, 
1304, the same escheator was ordered to deliver the said 
lands to Walter de Corry, the son of the dead man (ibid., 
487). 
Sir Walter de Corri (3), born in 1281, joined the Scots, 
and was knighted in 1315. His lands being forfeited, a 
moiety of them in Kirklevington and Kirkandrews was 
granted to Robert Tilliol in October, 1317 (Cal. Pat. R., 
1313/17, 538). Richard de Kirkbride obtained the rest. He 
was dead by 1350, being succeeded by his son, Walter de 
Corri (4). The Adam de Corry whom the Professor suggests 
was brother to Sir Walter was, with Sir Walter, a witness
