About wife of Andrew de Moray of Bothwell

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Andrew_Moray

The name of Andrew Moray did not disappear from history. A few months after his death, his widow, whose identity is lost, bore him a son, named Andrew.[10] The child acceded to the lordships of Petty and Bothwell and played a decisive role in defeating the attempts of Edward III of England, grandson of the so-called "Hammer of the Scots", to conquer Scotland in the 1330s. Sir Andrew would twice be regent for King David II, the son of King Robert I, and would display a remarkably similar aptitude to that shown by his father for leading Scotland's armies. And, like his father, he, too, would die prematurely in defence of the realm
