      Finlay Manson, appointed a Reader at Nigg at Beltane in 1568, and afterwards, on the 19th of June, 1569, presented by James VI. to the Chaplainry of Tolly, parish of Rosskeen. In 1574, he was promoted to Tain, having also Tarbat (which then included the modern parish of Fearn), Nigg, and Edderton, his whole stipend being 26 pounds 13s 4d Scots, equal to 2 pounds 4s 4d sterling, in addition to the church lands. In 1578 he removed to Nigg, at the same time continuing to hold Tarbat as part of his ministerial charge. He is found as parson of Nigg in 1607, and remained there until his death in 1612.
