In an article published in 1894, Charles Fraser Mackintosh writes of the MacGillivrays who came from the west, and settled at Dunmaglass in the braes of Strathnairn, and along the valley of Nairn in Inverness-shire. One half of Glass belonged to the old Thames of "Kalder" or Cawdor. By the year 1620 Dunmaglass had been wadsetted by the family of Calder.

On the 4th April, 1626, John Campbell, Fiar of Calder, with consent of Sir John Campbell, life renter of Calder, his father, feued to Farquhard MackAllister of Downmaglasch his heirs male and assignees whomsoever lauds and towns of Downmaglasch lying within the Barony of Calder and Sheriffdom of Nairn. Farquhar-vic-Allister also acquired the half of the lands of Culclachie from the Earl of Moray, and was infeft 20th December, 1631.

Farquhar's eldest son, Alexander, married Agnes Mackintosh, second daughter of William Mackintosh of Kellachie. Farquhar settled on the young couple by charter, dated Inverness, 27th June, 1643, the two western ploughs of Dunmaglass. The author writes:

"The Forbeses of Culloden did not find Allister a good neighbour at Culclachie, for by bond registered 24th June, 1654, Kellachie binds
himself as cautioner in a law burrows that Allister will keep the peace towards Duncan Forbes of Culloden, John, fiar thereof, and
their tenants.
Allister died young, and his widow married in 1657 William Forbes of Skellater."
