    "Alexr. of Teanard married Catherine daughter to Mr William Ross of Sandwick by whom he had a son George who dyed young and Christane married John Munro of Miltown."

    "Alexander of Teanaird's wife Catherine (Ross Es. 28) is called Isobel in Mackenzie 401 (from 1680 source); for dr Christane see M/60."
