Note:
1
In the late 16th - early 17th century there seems to have been an associated connection between the designations 'Minister of Auldearn' and 'Dean of Moray'.
'John' instead of 'Thomas' may simply be an error'.

Fasti Ecclesiae calls the daughter who married the Minister of Auldearn the 'youngest' . ^{1 2}
