General Notes:
"William Hay of Delgaty, second son of Gilbert, of Carnmucks, succeeded his kinsman as heir of entail in Delgaty prior to 22 March 1548/9 (Ibid. 472), but apparently owing to his having no heirs male of his body, he resigned his estates in favour of his brother Alexander Hay, occasionally styled 'of Percock,' as appears from the Procuratory of Resignation by William Hay of Delgaty, for resigning Ardendraught in favour of his brother, Alexander Hay, and Margaret Innes, his wife in liferent, and to their heirs male in fee. 13 March 1548/9 (Ibid. 471). William Hay, having resigned his estates in favour of his brother, ceases to design himself 'of Delgaty,' but retained Mickle Artrochie, and on 17 Oct. 1556, under that designation was served heir to his brother in one-eighth of Ardgeith (Antiquities of Aberdeen and Banff, III., 30). He died prior to 3 Nov. 1562, when his nephew, the son of his brother Alexander, was served heir to him in one-eighth of Ardgeith (Ibid. III. 30). He left two daughters, co-heiresses..."

Note: There is a typographical error in the description of William as 'second son of Gilbert, of Carnmucks', as it is clear from the surrounding text that William was the second son of Walter Hay of Carnmucks. 1
