«i»The tenth Baron of Foulis was George who married a daughter of McCulloch of Plaids. He was killed in 1452 at the Battle of Beallachnam-Brog as was his eldest son. He married, second, Christian McCulloch by whom he had son Hugh of Coul who succeeded to the Barony. It is with George that two lines separate to account for William of Lexington through Hugh, George's third son, and to John of Bristol, Rhode Island and Hugh of Long Island, presumed brothers, through John, his second son...

Hugh of Coul ... was on record in 1492...

Hugh Munro of Coul, said to be son of his father's second wife, Christian MacCulloch of Plaids. On record 1492. Said to have married, first, Eva, daughter of Ewen MacLean, of Urquhart and Dochgaroch, by whom his son John; second, Jane, daughter of Dugal Cattanach; third, a daughter of one of the Keiths, Marshals of Scotland.

Error alert: «u»The Munro Book«/u» p. 6 says Hugh of Coul "succeeded to the Barony". I'm not sure what is meant by that statement. Hugh is not recognized as one of the Barons of Foulis.
