Note:

There were and are differing designations, and even Christian names for the early lairds of Lovat Frasers, causing much confusion. In the volume quoted above the same 'Hugh Fraser', as quoted here, is named as "Hugh, fourth Lord Lovat." ¹

  Marriage Notes:

"A fourth daughter of this mariage, named Kathrine, was maried to John Fraser of Farralen, (whose familie is best known by the title of Bailzie of Stratherrick,) who, with the Lord Lovat, and most of the name of Fraser, were killed at Kinlochlochie 1543. She was one of the four scor widows who, by haveing posthume sons, restored the name of Fraser, almost extinct by killing of their husbands, as aforesaid. What his tocher was, I find not, only I find a receipt of eleaven merks Scots, in compleat payment of his tocher. This Kathrine Rose, after the deceass of John Fraser, her first husband, maried Donald M'Intosh Williamson, by whom she was mother to Angus M'Intosh, (called Williamson also,) a verie wittie and dareing man, predecessor to the present M'Intosh of Kylachie."
