   User ID: N421.

James married Elizabeth FRASER, daughter of William FRASER 1st of Struy and Unnamed WIFE, in 1599.¹ (Elizabeth FRASER was born about 1575.)

  Marriage Notes:

"James Fraser of Phopachy was in February, 1597, dispatched by Simon Lord Lovat to King James VI., then at Falkirk, with a message in connection with a dispute which had arisen between the Mackenzies on the one hand, and the Baynes and Munros on the other, a full account of which will be found at pp. 137-140. Shaw says that Simon Lord Lovat mortgaged Phopachy in 1620 to Fraser of Culbokie, an error apparently for Fraser of Phopachy who was undoubtedly already in some form of possession of it 'A branch of the Frasers had this land in mortgage,' he says, 'near 150 years, but it was redeemed by the late Lord Lovat ' that is Lord Simon of the 'Forty-five.

James married in 1599, Elizabeth, daughter of William Fraser, I. of Struy, with issue"
