== Biography ==Jean was born about 1330. She is noticed in the work of Balfour Paul both in Volume 8, under the Flemings of Wigtown[[#S-1]] Balfour Paul; Vol 8, [https://archive.org/stream/scotspeeragefoun08pauluoft#page/526/mode/2up page 529] and in Volume 2 under the Barclays of Brechin.Balfour Paul; Vol 2, [https://archive.org/stream/scotspeeragefoun02pauluoft#page/222/mode/2up page 223]
She was born to Sir David Barclay, Lord of Brechin and his wife, Margaret Brechin, the Heiress of Brechin.
She married Sir David Fleming, likely about 1350. They had two children:
* [[Fleming-562|Janet Fleming]], likely born about 1350, who married [[Seton-212|William of Seton]], son of Alexander of Seton, and was the mother of Alexander Seton, afterwards Lord of Gordon.
* Marion Fleming; who married William Maule of Panmure, who in her right claimed the barony of Brechin (her mother's lands). They had a charter of the lands of Skryne and others confirmed by King Robert III. on 3 September 1380. Her grandson, Thomas Maule, was, in 1437, acknowledged as heir of line of the lordship of Brechin.Balfour Paul; Vol 2, [https://archive.org/stream/scotspeeragefoun02pauluoft#page/222/mode/2up page 223]

She must have died shortly after as he marries a second time.
