Since the main source for Sir Symon Locard's presence in Sir James Douglas expedition to Spain is a family history published in 1976, and any further evidence is lacking in the accepted sources relating to the episode, it is approapriate that the nature of the source for this family tradition should be made clear. I have amended the text accordingly. JF42 ( talk) 10:03, 24 September 2017 (UTC) reply
