The association of the Douglas family with Drumlanrig is a lengthy one, dating back to the 14th Century when William, the son of James, 2nd Earl of Drumlanrig became 1st Laird of Drumlanrig. In or before 1388, when James, 2nd Earl of Douglas and Mar, died at the Battle of Otterburn, it passed to his son William Douglas, who became 1st Laird of Drumlanrig however, that was all that came to William from his father's vast territories.
