Orabella was named in similar undated chaters. ""Nesius filius Willi et Orabile filia sua heres" donated "ecclesiam de Losresc" to St Andrew's priory by undated charter [St Andrew's Priory, p. 254]. Her first marriage is confirmed by the undated charter under which her son "Seherus de Quency comes Wintonie" donated "totam terram de Duglyn", held by "Nesus filius Willelmi avus meus" to Cambuskenneth priory[Fraser, W. (ed.) (1872) Registrum Monasterii S. Marie de Cambuskenneth (Edinburgh) ("Cambuskenneth"), 70, p. 92]."
