'''DUKE OF GORDON [1]'''. Scottish, Strathspey. D Major. Standard tuning (fiddle). AAB. Neil (1991) notes that the Gordon family was one of the most powerful in Scotland, probably descended from the Gourdons who came to Britain with William the Conqueror. Most of the Scottish Gordons descend from one Sir Adam de Gordon who was given the lordship of Strathbogie in Aberdeenshire by Robert the Bruce. Adam's descendent George (4th Marquis of Huntly) attained the title of Duke in 1684, which expired in 1836 upon the death of the childless 5th and last Duke of Gordon. Niel remarks the powerful Gordons often stood alone in disputes with the crown, and, under the Earl of Huntly, lieutenant of Scotland, obtained land forfeited by others. As a result the Gordons were frequently engaged in clan disputes with such as the Mackintoshes, Camerons, Murrays and Forbeses. Composed by Niel Gow.
