from www.ancestor.abel website
"The arms of the Strachans (on a chief 3 cinquefoils) are displayed on the north tower of the castle (of Claypotts), flanked by the letters J. S. for John Strachan.The same arms appear on a seal of James Strachan, canon of Aberdeen, dated 1541, and another of Thomas Strachan of Carmyllie dated 1547.

Thomas married Isobel OGILVY, daughter of James OGILVY 3rd Lord Ogilvy of Airlie and Isobel LINDSAY.1 (Isobel OGILVY was born about 1512.)
Marriage Notes:
"Isobel, stated to have been married to David Strachan of Carmylie."
from Scots Peerage (vol 1)
Note:
Chronology suggests that Isobel, if she was married at all to a Strachan of Carmyllie, was married to Thomas, not David, Strachan of Carmyllie. Scots Peerage, volume one, does not give a source nor is the name corrected in volume nine. Burke's peerage and Douglas offer this same information.

Thomas next married Agnes MAULE, daughter of Robert MAULE of Panmure, Sheriff of Angus and Isobel MERCER.2 (Agnes MAULE was born about 1530.)
Marriage Notes:
"Agnes (Maule), married, as his second wife, to Strachan of Carmylie"
from Scots Peerage (vol 7)
Note:
Though The Scots Peerage does not specify which Strachan of Carmyllie Agnes Maule married, only Thomas Strachan's dates fit her dates. 2
