Note:

The above is an extract from a manuscript entitled "A Genealogie of the Barons of the Mearnes unto the year of God 1578" in the possession of Mrs Barclay Allardice. It appears to contradict the now-accepted placing of William Strachan as the father of the James Strachan who married Egidia Gardyne.
