Notes

Ref: "The Munro Tree (1734)" by R. W. Munro - M/49

"...after her he married Forrester by whom he had David and Daughters."

"Alexander of Daan's second wife was Margaret Forrester -- Mackenzie 384 calls her Miss Hamilton."

Ref 1 calls her Miss Hamilton but "The Munro Tree (1734)" says she was Margaret Forrester.
