| Notes |
- Jon studied at St. Andrews University and received his M.A. degree there in 1619. He was appointed to the parish of Reay in 1623, and later of Farr. In 1649, he was deposed along with most of the other members of the Presbytery of Caithness for "compliance" with Montrose.
John petioned the Synod on 6 Aug 1656, "to get his mouth open that he might assist his son in preaching." He was restored to his charge.
He owned land of Tubeg but transferred that property to his son, David, in 1665.
