PEPDIE: The Pepdies of Dunglass were an old Border family. Stephen Papedi witnessed charters by Waldeve, earl of Dunbar in 1166 and by Patrick, fifth earl of Dunbar (Raine, 114,116). Eustachius papedi witnessed a grant of land in Haddington to the Abbey of Dunfermline by William the Lion (RD., p. 31), and witnessed a confirmation charter by the same king to Walkelynus, braciator, c. 1200 (RAA., I, p. 166). Eleyne Papede of the county of Berewyk rendered homage in 1296 (Bain, II, p. 209), and Ralph Papedi was juror on forfeited lands in Lothian in 1312 (ibid, III, 245). Nichola Pepdie was married in the fourteenth century to Sir Thomas Home, grandfather of Sir Alexander Home who founded in 1403 the Collegiate Church of Dunglass.
