Note: If james was 65 years old at death it would give hime a year of birth about 1680, and this is rather late if his M.A. was granted in 1686, so his birth was most likely at least 10 years or possibly up to 15 years before 1680. moreover Isobel his mother is said to have been dead by early 1672. 2
