He was also an elder for the parish of Knockando.
He and his wife, Jean Gordon, had at least three children : John Duff of Pitchaish, of whom many descendants arc now living; another son, who had a son Robert ; and a daughter Margaret, only known to us from the following entry in the Presbytery Book of Elgin (1735) : ' There are no Papists in Alves, but Jean Gordon, wife to Duff of Craigienach and Margaret Duff his daughter.'
