      In 1659, Andrew contracted to marry Christina, daughter of Mr. John Munro, minister of Alness and on 10 Jul 1662, the contract was registered in the Books of the Sheriffdom of Ross. However, the marriage did not take place because of "the sudden death of the lady or some other important cause." Instead, Andrew married Christian, daughter of John Munro of Culcraggie in the same year.
