"37. Hay of Rannieston.

In the notice of Captain Robert Hay (614) it has been said that, as the name of Miss Hay of Rannieston appears as a witness at the baptism of one of his children, he might have belonged to the family which owned that property during the first half of the eighteenth century. John Gordon, younger of Fechell, was the owner in 1696, and paid the poll tax on it ; but in 1706 it was sold to Alexander Hay of Knockandie and Margaret Brodie his wife, by Charles, Earl of Erroll, in life-rent, and to Alexander Hay, their eldest son, in fee. The second Alexander Hay married in 1716 Katharine Murray, third daughter of Mr. William Murray, minister of Inverury, and in 1756 the property was sold to John Dingwall, stocking manufacturer in Aberdeen, whose mother, Sarah Murray, was a sister of Katharine Murray or Hay of Rannieston. In 1780 a ratification was given by Richard Hay, only son of Alexander Hay and Katharine Murray. This is all we know of Richard Hay. His father married again. In 1736 James Hay, brother-german of the Laird of Rannieston, was a merchant at Shiells or Colpna Shiells in Belhelvie, the parish in which the farm of Eggie is situated, which was leased by Captain Robert Hay. The Laird of Rannieston, probably the one who married Margaret Brodie, had a daughter, Elizabeth, married to John Lumsden, a brother of Robert Lumsden of Corrachrie (694). This is all we know of the Hays of Rannieston."

from Family Record of Dingwall Fordyce (vol 1)




"(a) In 1706 Rannieston was sold by Charles, Earl of Erroll, to Alexander Hay, of Knockandie, and Margaret Brodie his wife in hfe-rent, and to their eldest son Alexander Hay, in fee.

(b) There is a property called Knockandie, in the Parish of Auldearn (Shaw's Province of Moray) which may be the same as is frequently spoken of in the diaries of the Lairds of Brodie, but there called Knockaudie, a natural enough error of a transcriber. If this is a correct supposition, it may be suggested still further that Alexander Hay of Rannieston and Margaret Brodie his wife, were the persons referred to in Brodie's diary under date 14th December, 1678..."

from Family Record of Dingwall Fordyce (vol 2)




"Alexander Hay of Rannieston, died before 16th Nov 1721, when his will is recorded. He had probably been a son of Hay of Rannieston, by Miss Montgomery, the sister of Agnes Montgomery, wife of Andrew Moir, I. of Oldmill.
Widow, Margaret Brodie. Children I. Alexander; 2. Hugh; 3. James, appointed in will his executor; 4. Mr. Thomas; 5. Charles. I. Elizabeth."
