"DYKE PARISH
...Farther up is Easter Moy. This was purchased from the Earl of Ross by Donald,
Thane of Calder, anno 1410 (in the possession of the family of Calder). It was the heritage of a branch of the family of Calder during six generations; and John Campbell of Moy sold it to Alex. Dunbar, son of Westfield, whose son, Ludovick, disponed it to Alexander Duff of Drummuir, who conveyed Moy and Caulbin to his second son, John Duff, and from his creditors Major George Grant made the purchase about 1732; upon whose death in 1755, without issue, these lands came to his nephew. Sir Ludowick Grant of Grant."
