Knight of Felton, Jesmond, Ponteland and Tarcet in Thorneyburre, Northumberland. Knight of the Shire for Northumberland, Sheriff of Northumberland, justice of Assize for the franchise of Tindale.
Son and heir to Sir David de Strathbogie, 10th Earl of Atholl and Joan Comyn. Grandson of John de Strathbogie, 9th Earl of Atholl and Majory of Mar, Sir John Comyn and Joan de Valance.
Husband of Amryt, said to be the daughter of Walter Stewart. They had two daughter, Isabel and Mary, the wife of Robert de Lisle. In 1387 Bishop Fordham of Durham granted indulgence "to all who would contribute to the support of the chantry of the Holy Trinity in St Andrew's church and pray for the health and the soul of Sir Aymer of Athol knight."
Sir Adam de Athol. and his wife Mary, are buried under a very large stone, which has originally been plated very curiously with brass. The remains of their effigies are still to be seen. He is pictured at length in armour. having a sword on his left side, and a dagger on his right. Her effigy has nothing remaining of it but from the shoulders upwards. The arms of both their families are still to be seen on the tomb-stone. Bourne says, "What remains of the inscription is this: Hie jacent Dominus Adamarus de Atholl miles & Domina Maria uxor ejus quæ obiit quarto decimo die mensis...... anno Domini millesimo tricentesimo......... Animarum propitietur.'—The remaining part of the date is broken off: Grey, however, in his account of this stone, tells us, it was in the year 1387. which is very probably the time that his wife died: for it is a mistake that he died then, as appears by the indulgence above-mentioned." Brand adds. "There was, very lately, on this stone, inlaid with brass, a shield with arms, as quartered at this day by the Dukes of Athol."
