General Notes:
In a document, in the "Register of Panmure", signed by Alexander Strachan, younger, of Carmyllie, we find:
"In the witness of the quhilk, becaus I have no seill proper of myne awin, I have procurit with instance the seill of ane honourable man, Hew Auchinleck of yt. ilk, to be affixt to this my present bond of manrent, together with my subscription manuell, at Moneykey, the 9th day of Februar, the zeir of God on thousand five hundert and aucht zeirs..." (page 14 'John Auchinleck' is one of the witnesses to this document)
from Families of Strachan and Wise (1877)
"From the Arbuthnott Inventory, Vol 1, #125 (25 Sep 1499), #126 (29 Jan 1499/1500), #127 (20 Apr 1500), #132 (07 Feb 1500/1501) & #133 (06 Jul 1501) there are references to:
David Auchinleck, son of Hugh Auchinleck of that Ilk, married to Katherine Arbuthnott, daughter of Robert Arbuthnott of that Ilk.
Furthermore, the first of these entries also names William & John Auchinleck, brothers of Hugh."

Research Notes:
AUCHINLECK and AFFLECK
These are two forms of what is essentially the same surname. Other spellings include Affleck, Auchinlec, Haghenlek, Aghleke, Achenleck, and Aathelek.
In its early history some of the family was known as Auchinleck or Affleck 'of that Ilk'. The latter is a phrase which in simple terms demonstrates that the family were 'of' the land that the surname indicates, so they were Auchinleck 'of Auchinleck'. Other cadet branches of the family often acquired other designations based on land that they possessed or worked.
Moreover, to complicate matters, Auchinleck of that Ilk appears to refer to two families in different locations: one is linked to the 15th century Auchenleck or Affleck Castle, situated about a mile west of Monikie parish church in Angus, Scotland; the other is linked to Auchinleck, a village in East Ayrshire, Scotland. 5
Hugh married.
