   User ID: Y936.

  General Notes:

"William was the first of this family designed Dominus de Innes in an indenture betwixt him and Simon, prior of Pluscardine, in or before the year 1298. His son William de Innes, is one of the witnesses to an agreement betwixt the town of Elgin and the monks of Pluscardine, dated the 4th of December, 1330. He is therein designed Baro de Innes."

from History of Moray

"To Alexander succeeded William, Laird or Lord of Innes, as appears by the Indenture of Marches, past betwixt Simon Joannes Suryass, Prior of Pluscarden, and Willielmus Dominus de Innes, by the arbitration of Archibald Bishop of Murray and William Prior of Urchard ; the witnesses, Dominus Joannes de Morravia et Dominus Willielmus de Dallas. It is marked 3, and has no date ; but it is evident from Spotswood's History, pag. 107, ed. 3, that Archibald began to be Bishop of Morray in the year 1256, which was the seventh year of King Alexander the 3d. He also sat above fourtie years, but how long after his coming to the chaire the indenture past cannot be known, only, we may be sure, it was after the lands of Ester Urcharde were taken from the family of Innes, and given to the Kirk, because William, a Prior of that place (and its like the first of them) is a tryster there."

from Familie of Innes


"WILLELMUS DE INEYS held the lands in 1296. According to the family account by Duncan Forbes of Culloden, the father of the distinguished Lord President of that name, he was the ninth laird who had held the lands."
