Patrick Drummond, 3rd Lord Drummond

Patrick Drummond, 3rd Lord Drummond (1550–1600) was a Scottish landowner.

Patrick was the son of David Drummond, 2nd Lord Drummond and Lilias Ruthven (d. 1579), daughter of William Ruthven, 2nd Lord Ruthven and Janet Halyburton, Lady Dirleton.[1]

The English commander in Scotland during the Marian Civil War, William Drury, noted Drummond's activities in April 1572. There was a meeting of nobles in Perth, said to be to discuss the affairs of the young newly married Lord Drummond and his mother, Lilias Ruthven, Lady Drummond. Drury heard the Lords at Perth also intended to band together in a faction, but a quarrel between the Earl of Argyll and Atholl ended this.[2]

Lord Drummond went to France and returned in February 1583.[3]

Family

He married Elisabeth Lindsay (d. 1585), daughter of David Lindsay, 9th Earl of Crawford and Katherine Campbell.[4] Their children included:

In 1589 he married Agnes Drummond, widow of Hugh Montgomerie, 3rd Earl of Eglinton and daughter of Sir John Drummond 2nd of Innerpeffray and Margaret Stewart, Lady Gordon.[6]
