John Stewart, Master of Buchan m Miss Stewart dau of the Ear

Here on Leo's great site we see
John Stewart, Master of Buchan d 10 Sep 1547 Battle of Pinkie (as he there says)
http://www.genealogics.org/getperson.ph ... 5&tree=LEO

clicking on his wife Elizabeth Stewart tells us here
http://www.genealogics.org/getperson.ph ... 4&tree=LEO
that she was the dau of James Stewart, Earl of Moray born 1499

who we know was the illegitimate son of James IV, King of Scotland by his long-term mistress Janet Kennedy

HOWEVER, Wikipedia here
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/James_Stew ... reation%29

tells us that this James Stewart Earl of Moray (this same one not his nephew)
had a daughter MARY Stewart who married, as her only husband evidently, to "John Stewart Master of Buchan" but then goes *on* to say quite obnoxiously that "from whom she was divorced 12 Sep 1560"

So needless to say the lady didn't have to divorce if her husband was already slain at Pinkie.
Who's right? Who's left?
