John married Janet BAYNE 'of Tulloch'.1 (Janet BAYNE 'of Tulloch' was born about 1575 and died after 18 May 1614 1.)
Marriage Notes:
"On the 13th of May, 1606, there is a charter of the lands of Erchless from the same Simon Lord Lovat, in favour of John Chisholm of Comar and Janet Bayne, his spouse. There is a charter of confirmation of this deed under the Great Seal to John and his spouse, dated the 28th of January, 1612 ; followed by a charter of alienation by Simon Lord Lovat to John Chisholm and his wife, Janet Bayne, of the lands of Comar Kirkton, dated the 18th of May, 1614, along with a contract of wadset between his lordship and the said John and Janet, on the same date. From this it would appear that John's first wife was the widow or daughter of one of the Baynes of Tulloch."
from History of the Chisholms 1
John next married Daughter MACKENZIE, daughter of Alexander MACKENZIE progenitor of the family of Applecross and Coul and Christian MUNRO.1 (Daughter MACKENZIE was born about 1606.)
Marriage Notes:
"John (Chisholm), who does not appear to have had any issue by his first wife (see Note below), married, secondly, the eldest daughter, by his second wife, of Alexander Mackenzie (natural son of Colin Cam Mackenzie, XI. of Kintail, by Mary, eldest daughter of Roderick Mackenzie, II. of Davochmaluag), progenitor of the families of Coul and Applecross. By this lady he had issue"
from History of the Chisholms
Note:
It is clear that Janet Bayne was alive on 18 May 1614, according to the charter of alienation of that date. John Chisholm had a son in law who died aged about 36 years of age in about 1622. There has been an error in the ordering of John Chisholm's wives, it being the second wife, it seems, who had 'no issue'. 1
