'Alexander Duff, filius legitimus primogenitus, Adami Duff di Drumbulg and Helen Grant filia legitima de Patrick Grant of Auchnahangand.' One of the witnesses was 'Adam Duff, brother-german of the said Alexander' (Aberdeen Register of Sasines, August 20, 1671)."

"Of the sons, Alexander (Duff) alone, so far as we know, left descendants. By his wife, Helen Grant, he had two sons, Robert and Patrick." (page 456)
